Parental Abandonment: The case for Victoria. Luther retired to another parallel after the end of Adventures, and Anne was warped by the death of Henry, turning into "a hateful bitch" in Victoria's own words. No surprise her reaction to meeting Luther was first to slap him and then to cry in his arms. | |

Schizo Tech | |
Luther Arkwright (Comic Book) / int_3c5ae1a1 | comment |
Schizo Tech: The year is noted in Issue 1 as 1984, though the main setting in a parallel amidst an English Civil War and European Imperial Empires shows tech only at "our" First World War or inter-war levels, but with various incongruities. Arkwright brought over his "Vibro-Beamer" pistol from a more advanced parallel, the Disruptors are implied to have supplied some weapons tech to the Puritans (such as a shoulder-fired rocket-launcher), but more fantastical tech that appears include Steampunk style helicarriers. | |

Touch Telepathy | |
Luther Arkwright (Comic Book) / int_6d70ac30 | comment |
Touch Telepathy: Used several times. Mind reading is done by touching hand to head, but it appears that it's more of a data dump than reading surface thoughts (though it is implied that another psychic can control the contents of the dump). However, it is possible to implant thoughts without touching. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: After Queen Anne is dead and Victoria declines the throne, it is offered to Luther, due to him being a famous hero of the civil war twenty years prior. He turns it down angrily and goes into a brief rant about how "homo sapiens" always want someone else to tell them what to do and don't want the responsibility of making their own decisions. | |

Alternate Universe | |
Luther Arkwright (Comic Book) / int_8430699a | comment |
Alternate Universe: The works are based on the premise of an infinite multiverse of parallel universes or realities which differ with each other in many things. For example, one of the main places where the action in the comic book takes place is a 20th century world where Great Britain is still ruled by a puritan government and a descendant of Oliver Cromwell. In addition, New York is New Amsterdam and the other great powers are the empires of Russia and Germany. Based on rather scant mentions, "our" universe is apparently where Luther lived for some years around his teens to early twenties. | |

Fate Worse than Death: Henry, Luther's and Anne's son, was mortally wounded in the backstory. Instead of accepting his death, Anne tried to save him using her psionic powers, feeding him raw life force. He became an Eldritch Abomination with only the desire to die. Only trouble is that the only way it can suicide is by doing a "psychic version of the Big Bang, only in reverse". | |

Pregnant Badass | |
Luther Arkwright (Comic Book) / int_dcbddebe | comment |
Pregnant Badass: In The Adventures of Luther Arkwright, the heavily pregnant Princess Anne leads her armies into battle against the Cromwellian regime dominating an alternative Britain while just about ready to drop, goes into labour during the battle, gives birth (to twins!), and then gets right back up again and, bare-naked, leads the final climactic charge. The Boudicea-like imagery is not lost or wasted on her or her followers. | |

Art Evolution | |
Luther Arkwright (Comic Book) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: Especially notable between The Papist Affair and the other stories. Heart of Empire also used very different techniques than the earlier stories, besides being in full colour. | |

Mystical White Hair | |
Luther Arkwright (Comic Book) / int_ec6b0734 | comment |
Mystical White Hair: Luther Arkwright, Victoria, and Gabriel Shelley all have white hair, as well as a marked lack of body hair. It is implied that this is the case for most Homo Novus. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
Luther Arkwright (Comic Book) / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: When Arkwright appears, he has retreated to a war-ravaged world where he serves as a pacifistic healer and diplomat. Victoria herself chooses to abdicate and turn over power to a democratic government, leaving Albion to explore the world and "to end animosity, to make amends, to facilitate recovery". | |
