* JerkassHasAPoint: Though she presents it in a pretty narcissistic way, she does make a pretty good point: she lost half her family when she was barely out of middle school, had no efforts made to help her cope, and when it turns out her brother is still alive, he returns distant and judgmental.

* LikeFatherLikeSon: Or in this case daughter, in regards to Mia. Multiple characters have pointed out how alike she is to her father, not only taking after his [[ArcherArchetype archery skills]] but also his stubbornness, his tendency to keep secrets, and his initial viciousness in wanting to kill.

* CompositeCharacter: They are possibly the Arrowverse version of the [[Comicbook/BatmanAndTheOutsiders Outsiders]], which Curtis suggests as a name. If this is true, the comics version of the Outsiders is more closely associated with Batman and has a completely different roster.

* AdaptationalWimp: In the comics, Mr. Terrific is the third smartest man in the world. While Curtis is no doubt smart, he falls far short of the {{Impossible Genius}}es at S.T.A.R. Labs like Dr. Wells or Cisco, who can make technology decades ahead of their time (although he ''did'' pull a few weeks of all nighters to develop the tech that made it possible for Felicity to walk again). His Olympic success is also downgraded from the gold medal decathlete his comic self was to bronze. Also, this Curtis mainly FightsLikeANormal while the comics Mr. Terrific was a ScienceHero who heavily relied on technology. Though he does get his T-Spheres later on, bringing him closer to his comics incarnation.

* SuperheroParadox: He distrusts people with powers, because he thinks they have caused as much harm as they have done good, unintentionally or not. He mellows out after Barry and Kara save his life even after he was rude to them, showing him that – powers and no powers – some people just want to help.

** After Moira dies, Thea suffers from this, deeply regretting that her mother died to save her and they never reconciled due to Thea going too far with her response over Malcolm Merlyn being her father, and it's what drives her to leave Star City.

** ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' is confirmed to exist as an in-universe show in the Arrowverse, with the Legends even visiting their film set for one episode. No one ever notices how much Laurel resembles Ruby, a demon who became Sam's girlfriend. This is especially amusing considering Sara herself is a huge fan of ''Supernatural'', yet fails to notice her sister's resemblance to one of the characters.
