Line 17:
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: The Khunds are pretty much [[Star Trek|Klingons]].
** The Durlans are [[Secret Invasion|Skrulls]].
* [[Easily -Thwarted Alien Invasion]]: Earlier attempts by various races. This one came closer to succeeding however.
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: Part of the reason for the alliance was... that aliens don't like how we look.
** The Daxamites and Thanagarians resembled Earth's humans, but they had no genetic variance eg. they all look alike.
Line 29:
** The Daxamite gain powers on Earth similar to Superman's, apparently being distant cousins of Kryptonians. However they were also vulnerable to lead-based pollution, and only survived because Earth's heroes saved them.
** Some people actually ''gained'' powers (or had them altered) as a result of the meta-bomb, most notably Justice League manager Maxwell Lord. Several of the new members of [[Doom Patrol]] introduced during the [[Grant Morrison]] run were also said to have got their powers from the meta-bomb.
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: The Dominators. [[What an Idiot!|Not that most of their allies realized it]].
* [[Parody]]: At the time, Marvel's [[X Men]] were situated in Australia. So they had an issue where they stopped a thinly-disguised version of DC's invasion.
* [[Rubber Forehead Aliens]]: Most of the alien races.
