* ChildOfTwoWorlds: She was born on Earth and is half-human, but grew up in the dimension of Azarath. Technically three worlds since she's half-demon, but she prefers not to think about that too much.

* AdaptationalHeroism: Despite his opposition to the Team and League, he's notably far less antagonistic than his comic book counterpart.
** In the comics, he JumpedOffTheSlipperySlope, becoming a crime lord and outright villain before he fully transitioned into being an UnscrupulousHero. Here, he starts out as an AntiHero and, while he serves the League of Shadows as an independent agent, still actively protects the innocent and refuses to harm them, while in the comics he got to a point where he didn't care about civilians.
** Also in the comics, he tried to kill Tim Drake out of jealousy. Here, while he's certainly envious of the new Robin, it never reaches that level and he goes out of his way to save Tim's life ''twice''. In fact, when he threatens his other brother, Dick Grayson, with death, he was so horrified that he was effectively bedridden after the fact for a while.

dewicking Cloning Blues, moved to Clone Angst


* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: So we have a former StreetUrchin turned thief since he was resurrected, a HandicappedBadass archer suffering from CloningBlues in spite of being the original, a half-demonic goth with more DaddyIssues than can be counted, an alien WarriorPrincess top-model and a withdrawn gay Jew able to turn into metal. Is that sufficiently weird for you?

* CloningBlues: An inversion of this trope since he is the original Roy Harper. Unlike in ''Invasion'', where he was okay with his clone and grateful for his rescue, here, he's much more hostile toward him. According to him, the reason is since everyone on the Team hoped that he would turn out more like his own doppelganger, he got fed up with constantly being compared to his double.

* CloningBlues: Generally averted since he's well past that part of his life, but his nature as a clone does ''not'' endear him to Supergirl.

* HundredPercentHeroismRating: [[DownplayedTrope Not universally]], but in Jump City at the very least, [[AHeroToHisHometown they're respected as heroes]]. This also makes it difficult for the Justice League to apprehend them without causing an uproar. The civilians of Jump City even actively lie to the Justice League about knowing anything on them to prevent them from getting arrested. In addition, their home state, California, is actively fighting Luthor's SuperRegistrationAct so as they don't lose the Outlaws as heroes.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: She's considered to be this to Zatanna, as she uses demonic magic, which is stated by Klarion to be superior to Zatanna's "baby magic". Klarion was also ''very'' hesitant to fight her when he saw that she was Trigon's daughter and even before that took her seriously during their battle, something he doesn't even do with Dr. Fate when he has a mythically inclined host.

* AntiHeroTeam: They're all good guys at their core, but they're willing to commit murder and other ruthless actions against criminals and corrupt individuals when the Justice League is unwilling. They also have a willingness to commit illegal activities such as theft if it means achieving their goals, such as stealing artifacts or in Red X's case, Xenothium to power his suit.

* FiveManBand: They each fill out the individual roles.
** TheLeader: Jason created the team and is generally taking the big decisions.
** TheLancer: Roy was the second recruit and is more openly grouchy.
** TheSmartGuy: Raven is quite contemplative and her being the LadyOfBlackMagic is a rather intellectual position.
** TheBigGuy: Benji can turn into metal and is physically the strongest after absorbing Nth metal. He also tends to meekly follow his friends.
** TheChick: Starfire, since she's beautiful and caring, serving as TheHeart of the team. Doesn't detract from her badassery.
