The first mini-series received critical acclaim and coverage from many comic book writers, review sites and TV Guide.

 

The following titles have been released: ''Wildguard: Casting Call'', ''Wildguard: Firepower'', ''Wildguard: Fool's Gold'' and ''Wildguard: Insider''.

----

* [[Alien Invasion]]

* [[All of the Other Reindeer]] Wandering Eye

* [[Civvie Spandex]]

* [[Color Character]] Red Rover, Crimson Phantom Vengeance

* [[Dark Age of Supernames]] Crimson Phantom Vengeance (CPV for short). Night Harpy, as well.

* [[Day in The Limelight]] Webstrips and subsequent minis have focused on minor characters.

* [[Delicious Fruit Pies]] An ad in the trade paperback shows Four-Teen stopping Speeding Skull with Hostris Fruit Pies.

** Human Shield, arguably; while he doesn't show elements of this in the series, his contest bio notes that he only recently overcame his struggle with illiteracy.

* [[Drop the Hammer]] (Lilly Hammer's indestructible hammer. She's had it since she was a little girl.)

* [[Humongous Mecha]] Strong-Bot is a pretty big robot, but he disguised himself as a larger, more marketable robot to seem more viable for the team.

* [[I Believe I Can Fly]]

* [[Intercontinuity Crossover]]: Wildguard is an established part of Image's larger universe, and it's not uncommon for characters from it to show up in other books.

* [[Jerkass]] - Toughlon is generally considered one by fans and teammates, but he's just eager. The Ultra Super Mega Five, on the other hand, are the real deal.

* [[Petting Zoo People]] - Kit-en, Stickerburr, Scattermane, and Dorsal Head.

* [[Popularity Power]] Freezerburn was originally going to die in #4, until the polls showed him to be one of the most popular characters.

* [[The Pollyanna]] - Little Miss Sunshine

* [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]] - Scattermane, a superfast ambassador from a tribe of lion-men whose natural feline preference for privacy hurts his chances pretty harshly.

* [[Punny Name]] Just about everywhere

* [[Reality Show Tropes]]

* [[Rubber Man]] - Snapback and Longfellow.

* [[Sizeshifter]] - Blaction Figure and Jack Giant.

* [[Stock Super Powers]]

* [[Superhero]]

** In a more general sense, there were at least two heroes representing every power set in the tryouts; Running Girl, Flatfoot, and Scattermane were all speedsters, for instance; Super Temp and Strong-Bot were both Flying Bricks, Longfellow and Snapback were both Rubber Men; Toughlon, the Lifter, the Mover, Crag Langley, Barbrazon, the Romancer, and American Icon (to name but a few) are all just really strong...

* [[Tastes Like Diabetes]] - Little Miss Sunshine

* [[Useless Superpowers]] Adhesor has sticky skin. It doesn't take long to backfire. Toughlon is super strong and durable, but he's also completely non-stick (like, you know, teflon). Little Miss Sunshine can emit beams of light that, while very bright, are only harmful to vampires.

* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]: Mr. Mold's power.

* [[The Woobie]] - Strong-Bot. You get the feeling that things are never going to get better for him.

* [[Yandere]] - Wannabe, all the way. She's obsessed with becoming a famous heroine and won't let anything get in the way of it.
