Line 20:
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: When Prowler and Rocket Racer attempt to save Mary Jane from N'astirh, this is what happens. The scene was compared by one reviewer like this: "It's like sending Crimson Avenger and Speedy against [[Darkseid]]."
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Spider-Man doing what he does best, especially when he remarks on New York's ability to be the only city that can have several superhero battles going on at once:
{{quote| '''Spider-Man''': "What is it with this city that makes every nut job for miles around think it’s a good idea to start blowing things up?" Spider-Man asked himself. "I mean seriously, I’ve gone past like three fights in the span of three seconds. What’s up with—Is that Howard the Duck fighting Drom the Backwards Man with Tagak the Leopard Lord? I give up; why bother complaining when it’s just gonna keep happening whether I like it or not?"}}
* [[Deal with the Devil]]: Shown as one of the worst things that could ever happen to the multiverse.
* [[Dem Bones]]: Spider-Man sings a mechanical version of this when he disables White Rabbit's gigantic rabbit robot.
Line 38:
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: Just about every single hero in Marvel either appears or is mentioned here.
* [[Love It or Hate It]]: Some of the scenes near the end that showcase [[Deadpool]] and his usual goofiness. It's even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] in story by the author.
{{quote| '''Christian "NKSCF"''': "Do you know how conceited it makes me look to be inserted into this fan-fic?" I asked. "I'll already probably get a lot of flak for including this inane piece in an otherwise serious fic. This isn't how it was supposed to happen, you know. I'm just the narrator for crying out loud."}}
* [[No Fourth Wall]]: Deadpool in all his glory displays his trademarked [[Fourth Wall]] breaking, even talking to the ''narrator'' and arguing with him about the narration. He also takes over the narration for a paragraph and a piece of dialogue before NKSCF takes it over once again, denying Deadpool's Facebook friend request at the same time. Notably, this only happens when Deadpool is around, so the fic is seriously written for the most part, with the occasional loving [[Lampshade Hanging]] delivered for good measure.
* [[One More Day]]: Displayed as a means for Mephisto to {{spoiler|gain immense power due to taking something so pure--the Parker's marriage--which almost succeeds in giving him the chance to take over the entire multiverse. It also provides a means to get rid of Peter and Mary Jane's future daughter, who is destined to become the Sorcerer Supreme that eliminates him for good.}}
Line 47:
* [[Passing the Torch]]: Kind of, with {{spoiler|Spider-Man and Mary Jane learning that their daughter--who has been helping them thanks to the vestiges of her powers that she used to protect herself in the future once she learned of the deal with Mephisto--will become Sorcerer Supreme and destroy Mephisto forever.}}
* [[Punctuated for Emphasis]]: On his way to {{spoiler|victory over Mephisto}}, Spider-Man lets out a subsequent [[Take That]] and [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] at once:
{{quote| '''Spider-Man''': {{spoiler|"Not one more day of this, Mephisto!" Spider-Man yelled as he landed a blow for every word he spoke. "NOT! ONE! MORE! DAY!"}}}}
* [[Running Gag]]: Spider-Man being called an insect and him correcting the other person by saying they mean arachnid.
* {{spoiler|[[Sequel Hook]]}}: {{spoiler|NKSCF deliberately left one with Mephisto plotting his revenge against Spider-Man for making him lose his powers, which, along with the fact that N'astirh promised revenge as well, and now Spider-Man is in a new continuity with his marriage restored, leaves many possibilities open for new stories. [[Word of God|Confirmed by NKSCF.]]}}
