5!!Tropes:
6
7* AdultsAreUseless: In G-Man's origin, [[TheCape Captain Thunderman]] was knocked out at the start of the fight, and G-Man and his friends defeat the villain.
8* AlternateTimeline: One story arc involves the heroes going to a parallel Earth. Mr. G is proud of his sons, Billy Demon is more powerful, etc.
9* BigBrotherInstinct: When [[spoiler: a strike team of Suntroopers blasts down G-Man]], Great Man attacks them head-on.
10-->'''Great Man:''' You think I'm just gonna let you keep '''blasting''' my brother just because you're [[spoiler: a Suntrooper]]?
11* [[BroughtToYouByTheLetterS Brought to You by the Letter "G"]]: G-Man and Great Man both have "G" on their chests.
12* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: Suntrooper's powers come from his uniform.
13** And Sparky's powers come from his shoes.
14** And, of course, G-Man's magic cape and Great Man's magic belt.
15* [[ShapeshifterDefaultForm Color-Shifter Default Form]]: When he isn't consciously controlling what color he is, Tanman's colors are in a constant flux.
16* CursedWithAwesome: Cool Wraps is literally cursed with his powers.
17** Subverted with Parallel Earth!Billy Demon. The regular Billy starts saying that despite his enhanced powers, he wouldn't want to be a monster all the time. [[spoiler: Then his counterpart reverts to human form.]]
18-->'''Prime!Billy Demon:''' ...My world sucks.
19* DefeatMeansFriendship: Great Man and Kid Thunder
20* DominoMask: G-Man had one for a time, since he needed glasses. During the whole "alternate reality" mix-up, he says he switched to contacts.
21* GoodIsNotNice: Great Man can be a real {{Jerkass}} and frequently bullies G-Man.
22** TookALevelInKindness: His jerkassness seems to have gone down after [[spoiler: almost dying when G-Man's cape exploded]] in "''Cape Crisis''".
23* KidHero
24* KryptoniteFactor: The magic from G-Man's cape and Great Man's belt causes Suntrooper's uniform to malfunction.
25** Later revealed that just magic in general has that effect.
26* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: [[spoiler: Suntrooper Captain Davis helps deceive the other Suntroopers to fulfill his promise of making sure the G-brothers return safely.]]
27* SuperheroOrigin: G-Man made himself a magic cape from their old magic blanket so he could be a hero like his friends. Great Man took one of the leftover scraps and made himself a belt.
28** [[AllThereInTheManual According to his character description,]] no one knows Billy Demon's origin. He just showed up at school like that one day. During the alternate reality incident, we hear him discuss this with his counterpart...
29-->'''Prime!Billy Demon:''' Obviously [[NoodleIncident the traumatic events that made us into Billy Demon]] played out a little differently here.
