12	* ConMan: He makes his living conning people.
13	* {{Crossover}}: He has a crossover with ComicBook/GreenArrow at one point.
14	* HeroWithBadPublicity: His attempts to fight the Daemonites are hampered by the fact that he's a wanted criminal, whereas the Daemonites all appear to be normal humans.
15	* HumanDisguise: The Daemonites are able to disguise themselves as normal humans.
16	* MeaningfulName: In this version of the character, "Grifter" is a perfect description of his modus operandi - he's a con artist. It's this work that leads to his being abducted by the Daemonites, which results in his gaining powers.
17	* TheMostWanted: The first arc is about Cole Cash becoming the World's Most Wanted because of his recent connections with the Daemonites that can hear and see them in their true forms, making him crash a plane full of Daemonites disguised as humans ready for an invasion. This was televised, showing him as a terrorist that killed everyone on the plane, being wanted by the cops, the army and even [[ComicBook/GreenArrow some]] [[ComicBook/{{Midnighter}} heroes.]]
18	* PsychicPowers: As in previous versions, he has psychic abilities. In this version, they're a result of his run-in with the Daemonites.
