{{quote|'''Tom Noir''': "You want to change the nature of justice in America and you kill a president? What did you think that made you? Two-fisted Super-Jesus for the American Way? It made you Lee Harvey Oswald, you prick. You know what? Lots of people hated [[John F. Kennedy]]. He barely got elected. But Lee Harvey Oswald isn't remembered as an American hero. Just a prick with a gun who killed the president. ''That's you now, John.''"}}
* [[Spikes of Villainy]]: One of the [[Evil Knockoff]]s sent after the Guns has spikes on her boots, and the one that tries to kill Tom early in the story has retractable spikes in his forearm.
* [[Spiritual Antithesis]]: Ellis himself [https://web.archive.org/web/20150428060832/http://www.avatarpress.com/2007/03/black-summer-warren-ellis-on-the-motives-behind-the-masks/ contrasted] ''Black Summer'' with [[Mark Millar]]'s ''[[Civil War]]'', saying that latter is the [[Lighter and Softer]] vision of a conflict between superheroes and government, and the former is what would [[Reality Ensues|really happen]].
{{quote|'''Ellis''': ''...masked adventurers on the run are not going to be pursued, tricked and trapped by their estranged colleagues. Every last one of them is going to be hunted by the combined forces of the US military structure. It is, to my mind, what would always happen — the streets of America would be secured by soldiers and gun emplacements and helicopters against the threat of the flying superhuman. And for those who think I’m being anti-American, consider this: in Britain, we’d just have the SAS kill them in their beds. You people are young, and have not yet learned how to do business.''}}
* [[Super Speed]]/[[Good with Numbers]]: Zoe Jump. She has to visualize a set of quantum equations in order to engage her abilities.
