| The Losers (Comic Book) | comment |
A largely-unknown comic book series by Vertigo Comics about a Black Ops team who were betrayed by their handler, a CIA mastermind called Max, and presumed to be dead. Years later, the Losers come back for some payback. The series ran for 32 issues (August, 2003 - March, 2006). A film adaptation was released on April 23, 2010 that was pretty much just most of the first volume and some parts of the fourth.Named after a DC Comics squad of the same name who fought in World War II, but are otherwise unrelated - the project originally began as a series revival featuring the original Losers reuniting for a caper.Members: Clay: The leader. Roque: The second-in-command. Jensen: The hacker. Cougar: The sniper. Wears a cowboy hat. Pooch: The pilot. A family man. Aisha: The Ax-Crazy Dark Action Girl.There are five volumes encompassing the entire story: Ante Up (2004) Double Down (2004) Trifecta (2005) Close Quarters (2005) Endgame (2006) | |

Chekhov's Gun: The team chases Max's forces out of Pripyat, forcing the latter to leave behind their final nuke, so naturally the Losers snatch it up to avoid it falling into the wrong hands, only for it to vanish while in storage. It returns with Fahd in the finale and is used by Cougar to blow up Max's oil rig with him in it. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Max in the Movie sometimes wears a white glove or a black glove on his right hand depending on the scene. This is because in the comics, Max is actually two people who are twins. Also Max going from plunging unto the water to being on a bus within 5 minutes, is also possibly invoking that. The movie sets the mission that Max betrays the Losers at in South America. In the comic, it was originally planned to be in South America, before it was changed to Afghanistan. There's a Shout-Out to the original comic in the comics; Clay shares a surname with one of the original Losers, and he mentions that his grandfather was in World War II. Pooch is named after the dog kept by Gunner and Sarge of the original squad, as well. | |

Bad Boss | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Bad Boss: Working for Max can really shorten your life expectancy. In the movie, Max shoots an attendant just for fumbling the umbrella she's been holding over him on the beach. Later on, he has an entire special ops team eliminated (off-camera) just because Wade had already briefed them on the plan to kill Clay and his team; once the plan changed, they knew too much. And, of course, he spends much of the story trying to get the Losers, who had been working for him albeit unwittingly, killed or otherwise out of the way. | |

Cold Sniper | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_3f6d2c98 | comment |
Cold Sniper: Cougar is a partial example because, even though he is the quietest of the group, he does show emotions and even called off an air strike because there were children in the compound. It's even mentioned in the comics that he used to talk a lot more before the incident, but being close enough to the crash to hear the children scream as they burned and having to perform a Mercy Kill on one of Max's unfortunate mooks haunted him for the entire series. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The Losers stop Max's plan to start World War III and ensure global American dominance, but Aisha betrays the team and kills Clay by dropping a WP grenade next to him. Cougar is mortally wounded trying to escape, and ends up detonating a nuke to destroy Max and his country. Aisha's last appearance has her fighting 100 of Max's goons with no indication that she got far enough away from the blast in time. Jensen and Pooch manage to make a clean getaway and it's made clear nobody who wants them dead knows they survived. | |

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right! | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_440d1d0b | comment |
Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: A core theme of the series. This black ops team WILL defy their orders to do the right thing. Disobeying orders to save some children from certain death is how their story started. Interestingly, it causes conflict within the team as well. When Clay and Aisha are considering sacrificing a rescue helicopter's crew to follow Roque to Max, Pooch protests in horror, and Cougar slips away to attacked Roque outright and blow that plan. Clay chews him out for disobeying orders, apparently unaware of the irony. | |

Socially Awkward Hero: He also tries (and fails) to pick up women at the worst possible times. Like when Aisha is cleaning her gun. Or when an EMT is helping him from the wreckage of a truck crash (supposedly). Or while stealing data from a highly secure office building | |

Spies Are Despicable | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_4dea7871 | comment |
Spies Are Despicable: With the notable exception of Agent Stegler, who is noted as being one of the last of an older school of spy, spies are universally seen as bad people and not nearly as competent as they like to pretend to. And of course, the Big Bad Max is a Rogue Agent. | |

War for Fun and Profit: One of the ways that Max gets his funding for his grand plan is P.A.M. (Policy Analysis Market) a special program that reads changes in the stock markets as a way of predicting terrorist attacks and also allows investors to earn huge profits by betting on the probability of said attacks. Max also runs a special outfit called P.2.O.G. (Proactive Preemptive Operations Group) whose objective is to provoke terrorism. You do the math. | |

Thrown from the Zeppelin: In the movie, Max is introduced talking to three scientists he wants to build his doomsday weapon. One of them angrily refuses on moral grounds and is thrown off the roof as the other two gape. This is played with though as Max actually only wanted Wade to beat the man up to make him change his mind, but noticing the stunned looks on the faces of the other two scientists, he says that it did serve some purpose. He then tells Wade to throw off a second scientist before the third man stops him and says that they'll do it for enough money and/or to save his colleagues life. | |

Only in It for the Money: Roque sells out the rest of the team in a heartbeat for ludicrous amounts of cash, leaves Wade to die when saving him could endanger Roque’s escape with the money, and even in the flashback to Afghanistan, briefly goes off-mission to extort an Afghani smuggler into giving him cash in the middle of a firefight. | |

Guns Do Not Work That Way | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_95ff52c7 | comment |
Guns Do Not Work That Way: When Max borrows Wade's M1911-style pistol to shoot someone, he doesn't cock it, and after he fires it the hammer remains down: indicating that the gun is probably an airsoft prop. In the Bolivia scenes the crew use working M4 carbines for the assault on the compound, but carry what look very much like air rifles when they're awaiting the helicopter evac. | |

Behind the Black | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_9600368d | comment |
Behind the Black: The book's London arc opens with close-ups of Clay, Jensen, Pooch, and Cougar tersely discussing their situation, acknowledging they're surrounded by enemies, hopelessly outnumbered, and need to work out a way to get through them. The POV then pulls back to a wide shot, and it turns out they're debating how to get through a crowd to the bar. The movie shouted this out in its own way. The team was huddled in a bush with the rain pouring around them, talking about a time-sensitive mission and Pooch getting to "the package" under any circumstances. Pooch then scales up the side of a building, gets in through a window, and enters a room...just in time for his wife to give birth to his son. | |

Race Lift | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_d7c3ba61 | comment |
Race Lift: Aisha goes from Afghan to Bolivian. Though she still has an Arabic name, so maybe she's an Afghan who just happens to be in Bolivia. In the comics, Cougar is shown as having blonde/brown hair, and generally Caucasian features. In the movie, he's much more explicitly Hispanic. The actor is Spanish, while the character may or may not be Mexican (cowboy boots & The Hat? Not exactly native Iberian wear, here...) Also in the movie, Roque is African American, while his ethnicity is less defined in the comics. Andy Diggle apparently based Roque off Jean Reno. | |

Universal Driver's License: Pooch's specialty is exfiltration, which leads to him operating almost every conceivable vehicle. Cars, trucks, helicopters, boats, and at one stage even a tilt-a-rotor. | |

Drugs Are Bad: The first time the Losers meet Max, he's smoking opium in a drug trafficking town in the tribal region of Afghanistan. He even offers Clay some. Many of Max's endeavours are also paid for by drug-smuggling. | |

| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_dee56696 | comment |
Innocuously Important Episode: During the London arc, Jensen and Cougar invade a decommissioned WW2 missile platform where an audacious guy named Dave has declared himself king, knowing he’s in international waters and thus untouchable. The narrative at that point is more focused on the fact that Roque has returned, but this turns out to be Foreshadowing Max's endgame. | |

Duct Tape for Everything | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_ed3e90f3 | comment |
Duct Tape for Everything: Pooch uses it to assemble an improvised RPG. Pooch really loves this trope, stating, "There are few things in life that a liberal application of duct tape can't solve." Clay also uses it to "disarm" a Dead Man's Switch by taping the button. No further steps of actually disarming the device are shown. | |

Never Found the Body | |
| The Losers (Comic Book) / int_f516f938 | comment |
Never Found the Body: Lampshaded when Roque turns up alive and well unexpectedly and belts the crap out of Clay, telling him to always check for a body. Clay takes it to heart; after a later episode wherein the hunt for Roque winds up sinking a couple of ships, someone asks if Clay thinks Roque is dead. Clay says he won't believe it until he sees a body. It finally takes Roque being shot on-camera and in-person-witnessed by Pooch to make the team stop worrying. In the final scene of the comic, Pooch and Jensen are talking about how it's almost impossible Aisha could've killed a hundred men and escaped New Jerusalem before the nuke went off. But they can't be totally sure, because it's Aisha they're talking about. | |

Brick Joke: In the movie (see Real Men Wear Pink below). After the first appearance of the Petunias tee, Jensen is shown doing research on their opponents, the Marigolds—which turns out to be comprised entirely of Huge Schoolgirls. Later during the credits, we see the actual match. Another: while hiding out in Bolivia, Cougar and Jensen go to work in a factory making "Girls of America" dolls. Later, after Aisha shoots Jensen, the team breaks into a pharmacy to patch him up—and the first thing we see is a whole shelf of those dolls. After they find out that the drive they got is a courier drive with $400 million on it, Pooch says they should get a jet. Jensen corrects him and points out they can't use the money, but if they could, his suggestion would be a canary yellow stretch Hummer. Come the end of the movie and what do they find for the getaway vehicle? A canary yellow stretch Hummer. | |
