Here go character tropes for the webcomic ''Webcomic/JL8''.

!!Clark Kent

The ([[ComicBook/{{Superboy}} Super]])boy who will become Franchise/{{Superman}}. He's very keen on doing the right thing, which manages to keep Bruce from crossing lines. He has a crush on Diana.
----
* DoggedNiceGuy: He's like the brother Diana never had. He seems to have accepted it, and treasures his friendship with her.
* NiceGuy: Your good-hearted, all American nice guy. So nice, in fact, that he practically self-flagellates whenever he forgets his manners.
* OnlySaneMan: Especially around Bruce.
* ShyBladder: Doesn't do well with using other people's restrooms, to the point that he utilizes his SuperSpeed wherever he is to ''rush home'' and ''use his own bathroom''.
* SuperSpeed: This is [[http://limbero.org/jl8/21 why the kids don't play tag]].
* SuperStrength: [[http://limbero.org/jl8/141 As usual]].

!!Bruce Wayne

[[quoteright:160:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1159bc551571094226f29814cfa175ba.jpg]]


The boy who will become [[Franchise/{{Batman}} the Bat]]. He's very stern, over the top, and a bit of a brat. Still, he tries his best to do right. He has a crush on Karen.
----

* AgentScully: Doesn't buy into Bigfoot existing because there's no real evidence for it.
* TheComicallySerious: Kind of standard for a humorous Batman.
* CrazyPrepared: In his own words, "I was caught unprepared once. I swore it would never happen again."
* CreepyChild: A mild example. Seems to be thought of as the "weird kid" in his class, mainly by Karen and Diana.
* EyesOutOFSight: Bruce is never seen without his mask on, which has opaque eyes.
* {{Fiction500}}: Isn't afraid to flaunt his inheritance to impress people.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: A bit of an oddball ass (which he outright states is because he's not at all good at interacting with people normally), but still a decent guy. After Karen points out how rude he can be, he admits it and tries to be more polite.
* LargeHam: He [[http://limbero.org/jl8/9 sometimes indulges in it]], yes.
* SecurityBlanket: He has a plush bird called "[[MythologyGag Robin]]", which he keeps hidden in a hole behind a poster in his room.
* WhenHeSmiles: Given how much time he spends frowning, Bruce's smiles are quite adorable.

!!Hal Jordan

[[Franchise/GreenLantern The Littlest Lantern]]. He loves space. He is good friends with J'onn and Barry.
----
* CharacterDevelopment: The camping arc is pivotal, showing how Hal starts to go from a proud boy to a man you can count on.
* EyesOutOfSight: For most of his appearances he is this, not removing his domino mask until the camping trip arc.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Occasionally treats J'onn like a glorified TokenNonHuman more than a friend, which he gets called out for.
* PrecisionFStrike: [[spoiler: That's a load of '''crap'''!]]
* ScoutOut: A group with green uniforms, it's natural he'd do this in his spare time.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With Barry.

!!Barry Allen

[[ComicBook/TheFlash The Boy Flash]]. Something of a smart-aleck and a prankster. Loves nothing more than driving people up the wall. And food.
[[quoteright:194:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/6de4379c37ca56a526abaa44275d785b.jpeg]]
----
* BigEater: Diana has [[http://limbero.org/jl8/85 a snack table at her party]] JUST for him.
* CheerfulChild: The most optimistic character.
* TheConscience: Despite his hyperactivity, Barry becomes this to Hal during their camping trip.
* GenerationXerox: Is a dead ringer for his grandson at this age.
* {{Keet}}: He's ''unbelievably'' bouncy and energetic.
* NiceGuy: When J'onn's upset after [[spoiler: accidentally digging into Bruce's memory of his parents' murder when trying to show him 'Bigfoot']] it's Barry of all people that calms him down and gets him through it, telling Hal not to rush him as he explains what happened. [[spoiler: He even takes off his MASK to look at him eye-to-eye properly.]]
* PersonalityPowers: Dear lord. The hyperactive child has super-speed.
* PluckyComicRelief
* ShyBladder: Similar to Clark. He runs home real quick to do his business there.
* SuperSpeed: This is [[http://limbero.org/jl8/21 why the kids don't play tag]].
* SweetTooth: Has a particular fondness for candy.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With Hal.

!!J'onn J'onzz

[[ComicBook/MartianManhunter The Martian Greenhorn]]. He is a new student in Mr. Shwartz's class, and the son of a Martian ambassador. He is still learning Earth customs, and while Barry and Hal help him out, they sometimes do more harm than good.
----
%%* DeliberateValuesDissonance
* TheFettered: Issue #149 reveals that his parents don't let him use his powers at school.
%%* FishOutOfWater
* NaiveNewcomer: New to Earth, and slightly clueless to how things work.
* NiceGuy: Probably the most gentle and friendly member of the cast, along with Clark.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Averted.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Of course, Oreos.

!!Diana

[[Franchise/WonderWoman The Wonder Girl]]. She is the feisty keeper of playground peace, and refuses to stand for any wrongdoings. She is the Princess of the Amazons, a role she is initially displeased with, but eventually comes to terms with. She is Karen's best friend.
----
* ActionGirl: The most prone to throwing her weight around when dealing with jackasses. Also trained in swordplay.
* AmbiguouslyBrown: Is slightly tan, most likely from a sunny region of Greece.
* BloodKnight: '''''[[http://limbero.org/jl8/120 "I am a warrior."]]'''''
* LittleMissBadass: Easily the most violent member of the class, resolving arguments with the bullies at every opportunity.
* TheMatchmaker: For Karen and Clark. It doesn't work out, but she doesn't mind the result too much.
* ModestRoyalty: What Diana wants to be. Her mother has other ideas.
* OnlySaneWoman: Around the boys in particular.
* RebelliousPrincess: Dead set on avoiding being your typical DamselInDistress princess.
%%* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: As befitting a kid version of Wonder Woman.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The Tomboy for Karen's Girly Girl
* TomboyPrincess: Emphasis on tomboy.

!!Karen Starr

[[ComicBook/PowerGirl The Power Pint-Sizer]]. Karen loves ponies, princesses, Clark, and her best friend Diana. She has a tendency to get jealous.
----
* AllGirlsLikePonies: Firmly established [[http://limbero.org/jl8/15 with her choice of book]].
* CleavageWindow: Naturally doesn't have it yet. And her mom [[http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7a26kiDEO1r7ni1io1_1280.jpg intends it stay that way.]]
* GreenEyedMonster: Sometimes. She manages to talk out her problems, though.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: More of the InnocentlyInsensitive variety, crossed with a bit of selfishness - when she goes on a date with Bruce, it's mainly because he has horses. She admits that it's a crummy thing to do when he accuses her of essentially using him for the horses, but points out that he's generally rude to her too, so that was pretty much the only real reason she'd want to go on a date with him anyway. After that, they actually get on much better.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The Girly Girl for Diana's Tomboy.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: While the others hit various levels of anger over Jack mocking Bruce's dead parents, Karen absolutely ''snaps.''

!!Lex Luthor
A smug little creep in a child-size business suit, Lex is the leader of a group of older kids who bully our heroes.
----
* BigBad: The closest thing to a recurring villain that the comic has had.
* BullyingADragon: He regularly mocks the superheroes. It doesn't always end well for him.
* EvilRedhead: He hasn't yet gone bald at this point.
* KickTheDog: His specialty is to do someone harm and/or mock them while they're down.
* {{Narcissist}}: Clark calls him on this, and his constant cooler-than-thou expression doesn't help.

!!Solomon Grundy
A creepy, silent tall boy who mainly serves as Lex's muscle.
----
* TheBrute: The most physically powerful of Lex's "Little Legion Of Doom".
* TheBully: Explicitly described as such.

!!"Jack"
The future [[ComicBook/TheJoker Clown Prince Of Crime]], currently still a non-disfigured little boy. Doesn't stop him from being a psychotic little brat.
----
* CallForward: A single panel focusing on his face briefly alters the tint, making his skin appear paler, he hair more greenish, and his hoodie closer to purple. It's likely no coincidence that he refers to Bruce as "the Bat" in it as well.
* CreepyChild: Rarely interacts with the other characters, preferring to observe them with an unsettling smirk on his face. When he does interact with them, he delights in BreakThemByTalking and constantly tries to goad the heroes into hitting him, which he grows increasingly good at.
* TheFettered: Being a child, he doesn't indulge in the wanton violence of his adult self. You can ''tell'' that the little bastard would if he was physically capable of it yet.
* ShoutOut: At one point, Bruce has him pinned down and looks ready to strike, but he hesitates. In turn ‘Jack’ taunts him: [[Film/TheDarkKnight “Come on! Come on! HIT ME!”]]
* SlasherSmile: True to form, he constantly smiles.
* VisualPun: Jack wears a red hoodie. In other words [[MythologyGag a Red Hood!]]

!!Leonard Snart
The boy who will one day be [[ComicBook/TheFlash Captain Cold]] and leader of The Rogues. As of right now, he's one of Lex's henchmen.
----
* AnIcePerson: Averted, he doesn't have his iconic ice gun yet, being limited to a squirt gun.
* CoolShades: Wears his trademark snowsuit visors, which Lex mocks him for.

!!Lois Lane
The new girl who moved in across the street from the Kents. Has a penchant for investigating strange phenomena.
----
* CallForward: She already seems to have an interest in news.
* GirlNextDoor: Literally next door to Clark.
* IntrepidReporter: It's [[ComicBook/LoisLane Lois]] for God's sake.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: Her first experience with Clark's powers throw her for a loop.

!!Priscilla Rich
A [[{{Pun}} catty]] member of Lex's gang.
----
* AnimalMotif: Cheetahs, naturally. She wears a coat with a leopard fur print and an AnimalEaredHeadband.
* FemmeFatalons: She wears clawed gloves, which she uses to make threats.

!!Winslow Schott
A member of Lex's gang known for being a prankster.
----

!!Pamela Isley
A manipulative member of Lex's gang.
----
* GreenThumb: She may be a kid but she's still Poison freaking Ivy, lol.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Often seen with Solomon, fitting as they are both plant based villains.
