* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Jack's primary suit has silver plating and [[BlueIsHeroic blue]] energy effects. Meanwhile, his winter suit, which Argon ends up stealing, is [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver red and dark gray]], with red energy effects. Both of these are unlike the apparent "default" color for Source-created items, which tend to be dark gray with gentle orange energy effects.
