Line 7:
* Mechakara.
** Let's look at what he's done. He originates from a universe that suffered a robot apocalypse, and apparently, ''the majority of organic life'' has been killed off. He killed his Linkara and ripped off his skin, then wore it ala [[The Terminator]] (judging from his dialogue, [[Fridge Horror|he may have done both at the same time]]), because [[Disproportionate Retribution|he was tired of listening to Linkara being a comic book fanboy.]] The fact that he wants to harness the magic gun ''[[Omnicidal Maniac|and kill every single living thing in all reality]]'' is bad enough, but the fact that he is actively out to torture and [[Mind Rape]] Linkara ''[[For the Evulz|just because he wants to see a version of Linkara suffer a slow death]]''? Yeah, Mechakara is one of the most [[Robotic Psychopath|psychotic]], [[Complete Monster|depraved]] and [[Axe Crazy|demented]] A.I's this side of [[I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream|AM.]]
** A later [[Fridge Horror]]: His rebuilding by Vyce. Where did the new Linkara disguise come from? Is it synthetic or vat-grown? ''Or did Vyce kill another Linkara to get it?''
* From Sultry Teenage Super Foxes #2, '''"[[Evil Sounds Deep|All that he sees, he conquers.]]"''' Damn it, Mechakara, stop being creepy!
** It's worse when you get the context. It's an [[Early-Bird Cameo]] of Lord Vyce's catchphrase/slogan.
* Lord Vyce, full stop. He's a [[Multiversal Conqueror]] considered the most feared being throughout the multiverse. He's managed to ''kill gods'', and [[Curb Stomp Battle|effortlessly took out Linkara.]] And the kicker? He's doing it [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|to save reality]] [[Up to Eleven|from something even worse than him.]]
** The revelation that Linksano's own reality was one of Vyce's previous conquests [[Fridge Horror|makes it even worse]]. Remember all those funny, quirky characters we met in the Party Mania universe (which include a [[Gender Bender|genderbent]] [[The Spoony Experiment
* The backstory of Linkara's Magic Gun.
** It's a girl. The Magic Gun is powered by the soul of a dead girl who was ''tortured to death'' by her zealot parents. Said parents used her [[Unwitting Pawn]] to gain great power? [[Fridge Horror|Who]] [[Pokémon Black and White|does that]] [[Complete Monster|remind]] [[Abusive Parents|you]] ''[[Nightmare Fuel|of?]]'' And the god they worshipped? [[Eldritch Abomination|It's the Entity]].
** Linkara's related breakdown. Think about it: this guy has faced killer robots, mad scientists, and horrible comics without batting an eye. His breakdown when he believes that he was the girl's father reminds us that he can, in fact, go insane if push comes to shove.
** The whole storyline is chock-full of [[Adult Fear|real world fears]]. Brutal child abuse? [[Sanity Slippage|Losing your grip on reality?]] Being abandoned and shunned by those you care about? [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|Losing your most important memories without knowing it?]] Being responsible for the death of your ''own'' child? Nothing imaginary about those.
* The Entity. It's an [[Eldritch Abomination]] so deadly that somebody [[Necessary Evil|was forced]] ''[[Multiversal Conqueror|to conquer universe after universe]]'' just to ensure this thing doesn't [[Apocalypse How|destroy]] ''[[Omnicidal Maniac|the entire]] [[The End of the World
** The Entity has stolen over a billion people including most of the cast and Pollo over a period of several months and people (including the cast) are only just now noticing it. And it is ''thorough'' in stealing people. It'll steal whole families so no one reports missing relatives, it waits until the person is alone to kidnap them, and yes, being alone in one room of a house while someone else is in another room counts as alone. It kidnaps people from heavily populated or rural areas so the disappearances will go unnoticed for a long time, and it doesn't leave any kind of traceable energy signature or other evidence behind. Basically, [[Paranoia Fuel|any time you are by yourself, the Entity could kidnap you.]] Just let that sink in...
* The trailer for the Halloween review. Oh boy. Everything about it drips with creepy. The unsettling distortion of the voices, what sounds like Vyce reciting the poem from the Dead/Alive review, the mysterious voice at the start saying "EVERYONE IS GONE" and, to top it all off, Linkara's panicked cry of "Is there anybody out there?!" Oh, and the Entity storyline wrapped up in the same month. [[Sarcasm Mode|Joy.]]
