Line 91:
* [[Superman Stays Out of Gotham]]: Turned on its head when the X-Men [[Lampshade]] how anti-mutant sentiment was never on the radar of the heavy hitters in the superhero community (comparing the Stamford disaster to the Genosha massacre which no superheroes helped with) and declare they're [[Somebody Else's Problem|staying out of the whole mess]]. Likely due to the X-Books' constant theme of mutant registration being the first step to anti-mutant genocide not jiving with the "Pro-Reg is right" message.
* [[Super Registration Act]]
* [[Thirty Pieces of Silver]]: In issue #5 Daredevil invokes this trope to accuse Iron Man of betraying his friends and colleagues in exchange for power. Upon his arrival at the prison in the Negative Zone, he is found to be carrying a silver dollar under his tongue.
{{quote|'''Guard:''' He said he's been saving it for you.
'''Tony Stark:''' A silver dollar. I don't understand.
'''Daredevil:''' Guess that's thirty-one pieces of silver you've got now, huh? Sleep well, Judas.}}
* [[To Be Lawful or Good]]: ''the entire superhero community'' is caught into this ethical dilemma, but the two characters that took most of the cake is [[Captain America (comics)|Captain America]] and [[Iron Man]]. The [[X-Men]], however, [[Take a Third Option|took the third option]] and decided to stay out of this conflict because of the events of M Day.
* [[To Catch Heroes Hire Villains]]: They empowered the ''[[Thunderbolts]]'' to go after heroes who refused registration. Thunderbolts under the command of [[Spider-Man|Norman]] [[Ax Crazy|Osborn]]. Including Bullseye, a [[Complete Monster]] whose personal body count is probably well in excess of those killed in the Stanford explosion.
