| Killraven (Comic Book) | comment |
Killraven is a Marvel Comics character created by Roy Thomas, Neal Adams, and Gerry Conway. He debuted in Amazing Adventures #18 (May 1973) and has appeared in multiple alternate realities since then.In the future of Earth-691, Earth was invaded once again by the Martians from The War of the Worlds (1898) in 2001, who successfully conquered the planet and subjugated humanity. Post-conquest, men are used only for breeding or gladiatorial combat, while women are used solely to produce children for the Martians to eat. After escaping from the games, former gladiator Jonathan Raven (dubbed "Killraven") joins the freedom fighters in order to search for his lost brother Joshua.An Alternate Universe version of Killraven was also introduced in the Killraven (2002) series, which made some changes to the original cast and setting. | |

Stripperiffic: Killraven's first outfit looks... well, like a male stripper's. Carmilla apparently does lab work in a crop top and bikini bottoms. She keeps it up after joining the Freemen, only at one point changing up to a cloak when in the middle of winter. | |

Kick the Dog | |
| Killraven (Comic Book) / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: After showing his true colors, Deathraven first sics his wolf pack on M'shulla to force Killraven to watch his friend die. Then when Killraven assumes he's been brainwashed and urges him to fight it, Deathraven seems to relish telling Killraven that he likes what he's become and that Killraven's memories of his childhood are all wrong; according to him, their mother was actually a "bitch" and a "conniving, ugly woman" and that he, Joshua/Deathraven, used to love bullying and beating up his younger brother...just like he was going to do again. But then Old Skull tries to help after initially staying out of the fight between brothers at Killraven's request. Context: in Old Skull's origin story, he told about how the children who always bullied him called him "retarded" and how he much he hated it. And earlier on, when Joshua (still pretending to be friendly) asked Killraven what the deal was with Old Skull and if he was "retarded", Old Skull dropped his usual Gentle Giant demeanor and was clearly hurt and angry. Seems that Deathraven took note based on the last thing he says here: | |

Fantastic Racism: Killraven really, really hates Martians. It's not hard to see why, of course, but it does make him a bit intractable when it comes to exploring any other options in dealing with enemies other than kill them. | |

Human Hard Drive: Killraven was secretly implanted with an encyclopedic knowledge of pre-invasion human history and culture. Unfortunately for him, he was never trained to access all that information at will, so it mostly comes up in unhelpful recollections or is spotty and incomplete. | |

Cargo Cult: In Amazing Adventures #26 (September 1974), Killraven and M'shulla happen across one who worship... Kellogg's cereal mascots. The cult are totally willing to kill and die to protect their "treasure" (which is a pile of cereal box toys), even after Killraven tells them he's got no interest in taking it. Keeping up with the cereal theme, the cult's guardian, Pstun-Rage, has a name that's an anagram of Grape-Nuts, and the story was set in the remnants of Battle Creek, Michigan. | |

Future Imperfect | |
| Killraven (Comic Book) / int_ac0f4761 | comment |
Future Imperfect: Abounds, thanks to the Martians taking pains to eliminate human civilization. The Freemen find the Golden Arch, but they and the humans who live there have no idea what it is, thinking it must be an old religious site... and not just a former fast food place. M'Shulla makes a quip about "bringing home the bacon", even though neither he or Killraven know what that means. In issue #33, John runs into some black people living underground who are still pissed off about the Jim Crow laws (the story is set in the 2010s). John has no idea what buses or bathrooms even are. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain | |
| Killraven (Comic Book) / int_acf33d00 | comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: The Overlord plans on having John gruesomely tortured to death and broadcast to every human slave. John's stoic defiance and following escape just gives humans a symbol of hope. | |

Living Weapon | |
| Killraven (Comic Book) / int_b40bb08a | comment |
Living Weapon: Killraven was turned into a living silver bullet against the Martians by Keeper Whitman, but most of his true potential is held back by a mental Restraining Bolt that Whitman didn't get around to bothering how to disable before Killraven killed him. | |

| Killraven (Comic Book) / int_b63019a5 | comment |
High-Heel–Face Turn: Carmilla starts out as an extremely unwilling servant of the Martians, and sides with Killraven first chance she gets, but this leads to a bit of tension between the two of them. | |

Failed Future Forecast | |
| Killraven (Comic Book) / int_bb40e7e0 | comment |
Failed Future Forecast: Since the original series was made in the 70s... yeah, there's more than a few. TV was replaced in the 90s by the "mural phonics system" (live your own adventure!). Cars were replaced as well. Thermonuclear power became mankind's fuel source of choice, which big oil went along with. There were manned NASA missions to Mars in the 90s, and one female astronaut, who isn't Sally Ride. Cattle farming died off in the 90s thanks to changes in food production technology. | |
