| 2 | * EnsembleDarkHorse: Mari is one of DC's more popular black characters, which is especially impressive given she has never had an ongoing solo comic of her own. |
| 3 | * FanPreferredCouple: Thanks to ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague Unlimited'', fans really like pairing Mari off with [[ComicBook/GreenLantern John Stewart]]. |
| 4 | * TheWoobie: She lost both her parents and witnessed her fellow models killed by terrorists. |

| 8 | * CompleteMonster: [[ScaryBlackMan Benatu Eshu]] is a ruthless Zambesi warlord and season 2's BigBad. Desiring the Totems of Zambesi, Eshu led a raid on [[TheHero Mari]]'s village when she was an infant, massacring scores of innocents, upon learning that the village possessed the Anansi Amulet; among those killed was [[YouKilledMyFather Mari's father]], who Eshu callously executed when he attempted to stand against the [[AxCrazy madman]]. In the present, Eshu arrives in Detroit under the guise of an ambassador and continues his quest to find the Totems. To achieve his goals, Eshu bribes a thief into stealing the Fire Totem for him, then [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness promptly kills the man once he's no longer of any use]]. With the Fire Totem in his possession, Eshu attempts to kill Mari to steal the Anansi Amulet. Failing in this, Eshu goes on a city-wide rampage in a fit of homicidal rage, [[PlayingWithFire burning down]] a massive portion of Detroit in an effort to draw Mari out. When Mari and her allies attempt to stop him, Eshu incinerates [[spoiler:Mari's sister Kuasa]] right before her eyes before trying to kill Mari herself. Even when [[BroughtDownToBadass he is stripped of the power of the Fire Totem]], Eshu continues his attempt to murder Mari in order to steal her amulet and harness its powers for his own purposes. |
| 9 | * HilariousInHindsight: Oliver points out the absurdity of fighting crime in "a brown leotard," to which Mari replies "What's wrong with brown?" But apparently she did agree on that part, as her outfit is a different color when she makes the leap to live action in ''Arrow''. |
| 10 | * ItsShortSoItSucks: One of the main complaints about the show, since the average length of every episode is five minutes. (The entire first miniseries itself is only thirty minutes long.) |
| 11 | * {{Narm}}: Stephen Amell and Grant Gustin clearly didn't quite feel comfortable with voice acting, and both give some rather odd line readings. Same goes for Carlos Valdes. |
