* EvilFeelsGood: In the end, Storm admits her rampage actually felt good because it was the first time in years she could let go.
* EvilVsEvil: Just as Garrok is fully awakened, Sauron claims enough power to challenge him one-on-one. The struggle leaves Garrok re-imprisoned and Sauron so drained that he turns back into Karl.
* {{Flashback}}: Garrok explains to Sauron how he was defeated and imprisoned by "a powerful enemy" long ago, only being awakened by Storm using her powers in the Savage Land when the X-Men fought Sinister's forces and helped rebuild the area.
* FriendshipMoment: After the fighting is over and Karl is found alive, Ka-Zar gives him some energy and says he can finally put Sauron behind him.

* HopeSpot: Karl's plan to stop Storm's rampage by draining her energy is actually working. Then Sauron gains enough strength to assert control and hold on.
* IWarnedYou: When Sauron tries to absorb her energy, Rogue warns him that won't work out so well since she also has an absorbing power. Sauron tries, anyway, leading to them both getting a nasty shock.
* NearVillainVictory: Garrok's plan to use Storm to break free of his prison and return to his glory days was working like a charm. Storm's attempt to stop him even helps feed him more. It takes Sauron getting free and doing some energy absorbing of his own to stop him. In the end, Garrok bemoans how he was so close to winning.

* UnwittingPawn: When explaining the backstory, Garrok tells Sauron he was this to him the moment Zaladane sent Karl off in the ship. The pendant Karl was given compelled him to go to New York and seek out Storm so that Sauron would capture her and return to the Savage Land.

* ChewingTheScenery: BrainwashedAndCrazy Storm ends up leaning into this even more than usual. There's also the fully awakened Garrok, ''who IS the scenery.''

* GeniusLoci: Garrok ''is'' the Savage Land, able to materialize his head from a mountain peak, and forming his hands out of the ground to attack our heroes. He can even crush the clay hut where Storm is recuperating, likely because it's made only of materials that came right out of the ground (which ''is all Garrok.'')
