** Since Kitty Pryde left the team, it's pretty much become a rule that the roster has to include one plucky teenage girl who latches onto Wolverine as a [[Big Brother Mentor]]. Over the years, the replacements have included Jubilee, Marrow, Armor, Pixie, and X-23.

* [[Take That]]: In one ''Generation M'' comic, the main character is an alcoholic reporter. A suspiciously-familiar guy calling himself [[Iron Man|Tony S]] attends one of her AA meetings. At a later point, after being beaten up she refers to herself as "looking like one of [[Never Live It Down|Hank Pym's]] girlfriends".
** Mojo is a villain whose purpose seems to be making fun of the television and film industry. He's an obese, disgusting, '''''ugly''''' alien overlord who is also his dimension's biggest film producer.

* [[Tangled Family Tree]]: The Summers family is a massive [[Continuity Snarl]] to itself, and is so convoluted that at this point Scott Summers may in fact be [[My Own Grampa|his own grandfather]].
