[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:General]]
-->'''Current Members:''' Clark Kent / Superman, Diana Prince / Wonder Woman, Barry Allen / The Flash, Hal Jordan / Green Lantern, J'onn J'onnz / Martian Manhunter, Billy Batson / Captain Marvel, Dinah Lance / Black Canary, John Stewart / Green Lantern, Red Tornado, Nabu / Doctor Fate, Ray Palmer / The Atom, Icon, Guy Gardner / Green Lantern, Zatanna Zatara, Raquel Irvin / Rocket, Kaldur'ahm / Aquaman II, John Henry Irons / Steel
-->'''Former Members:''' Giovanni Zatara, Roy Harper II / Red Arrow, Ted Kord / Blue Beetle II, King Orin / Aquaman, Bruce Wayne / Batman, Oliver Queen / Green Arrow, Kate Kane / Batwoman, Curtis Metcalf / Hardware, Tatsu Yamashiro / Katana, Eel O'Brien / Plastic Man, Jefferson Pierce / Black Lightning
* AdultsAreUseless: The incident with Red Tornado stands out as an example of where they ''should'' be far more competent, but otherwise they are pretty on the ball.
* BackForTheFinale: The six that were in Rimbor, Hawkman, Icon and the Franchise/GreenLantern members that joined them.
* BadassCrew: Actually subverted. Individually each League member is incredibly powerful, but they aren't a cohesive force like The Team is so their capabilities when working in groups tend to be somewhat underwhelming. Which makes sense, as the Team consider each other family, while the League are more like adults at work. Several of them are friends, but not in the same way.
* BadassTeacher: Many of them are mentors towards The Team.
* BigGood: The League itself, which the characters frequently mention as possible support when it looks like the situation is something they can not handle themselves. The League also has a rotating chairman who embodies the trope more then others.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: At the end of Season 1, the entire League is taken over by Vandal Savage and Klarion.
* BreakingTheFellowship: At the beginning of ''Outsiders'', the Justice League deal with mass resignations with Batman leading the charge, due to their inability to operate against the crime they were formed to stop. By the end, Batman gets Green Arrow, Batwoman, Hardware, Steel, Katana, and Plastic Man to leave, while Black Lightning quits for different reasons. It even seeps into the Team, with Robin, Spoiler, and Arrowette leaving with their mentors.
* ClearMyName: A variation. The "sixteen hours" (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, John Stewart, and Hawkwoman) Leaguers leave Earth (with Hawkman, Hal Jordan, and Icon in tow) to face charges in "Alienated". Although they actually did do it, they were actually BrainwashedAndCrazy at the time.
* DemotedToExtra: The entire team, since the series focuses their sidekicks. Creator/CartoonNetwork even touted the show this way in early promos, counting on the audiences familiar with the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' cartoon to cause shock when the protagonists were revealed to be the children.
* ExpressiveMask: The members who actually wear masks are usually presented as this.
* ElaborateUndergroundBase: Formerly operated out of Mount Justice.
* FinalBoss: The season 1 finale has the Team fight the entire league... and win. See TheWorfEffect.
%%* HelpingWouldBeKillStealing
* GoodIsNotSoft: They are ''the'' premiere hero team, with the virtue and dedication to the good fight that entails. But they're also willing to entertain darker methods than you would believe clear cut heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman would engage in. Their use of the Team is essentially the employment of ChildSoldiers, said Team has been tasked with acting where the League can't because of their charter with the United Nations, and they are seen to keep numerous secrets from the public, with the implication that they don't even announce members dying in action for reasons relating to public relations.
* HeroesOfAnotherStory: There are occasional mentions of Leaguers being busy on other missions. Prisons like Belle Reve are full because of them.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: As of the second season, the entire League are wanted criminals in Rann space. This is because the Light sent a team of brainwashed Leaguers to their area of space and had them go on a rampage while broadcasting their identity.
** Closer to home, G. Gordon Godfrey is running a smear campaign on the Justice League, particularly the alien members. It seems to be working.
* LivingProp: Some members haven't received lines yet.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: At least twenty-six members by the end of ''Invasion''. By ''Outsiders'', there have been at least 36 members of the League, [[DownplayedTrope although]] several are either offworld or have resigned at the start of the season.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted; four separate members of the League are named "John" ([[ComicBook/MartianManhunter Jones]], [[ComicBook/GreenLantern Stewart]], [[ComicBook/RedTornado Smith]], and [[ComicBook/{{Steel}} Irons]]), and one has the Italian variation of the name (Zatara).
* OrderVersusChaos: Order to The Light's chaos.
* PutOnABus: The six Leaguers who were brainwashed into attacking Rimbor have now left to stand trial and prove their innocence. Accompanying them are Hawkman (who refuses to leave Hawkwoman) and Icon, who's acting as advocate.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Most of the League members who regularly interact with the Team are this.
* SpaceBase: The Watchtower
* SpiritualSuccessor: To the Justice Society of America, as usual.
* StoryBreakerPower: Probably the reason why most of the League's strongest members get PutOnABus to space early in season 2. Freely admitted by Creator/GregWeisman when it comes to the League's two (in season two, three) Green Lanterns: they are frequently off world because they're so powerful that they should be able to neutralize just about anything, but also justified because they're responsible for protecting more than just Earth.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: Although there are three female members on the team, which technically means it doesn't count, the full roster is ''sixteen'' members so the essential truth of this trope is still in play. Interestingly, Franchise/WonderWoman seems to be actively working against this, as one of her stated criteria for an ideal new member to the League is that they be a woman to help shift the gender ratio.
* TheWorfEffect: As stated above, the entire League is beaten by the Team in the season 1 finale. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] by the fact that Klarion had to control all of them at once (therefore making it harder to make them each effective in battle), while the Team could take on one to a few at a time. Kid Flash [[LampshadeHanging comments on this to]] Artemis.

The Big Blue Boyscout -- though, perhaps a little less so than most interpretations. Though still the symbol for Truth, Justice and American Way, Superman was more than a little freaked out about the discovery of his clone, Superboy. He spent most of the first season avoiding any responsibility for him, despite the efforts of the rest of his colleagues to make him reconsider. He eventually accepts Conner as a little brother rather than a son come ''Invasion''.

One of the most powerful characters, with flight, super-strength, heat-vision and much, much more.[[labelnote:note]]Some of the tropes listed for Superman here are from the tie in comic, '''NOT''' the animated series itself, so don't be surprised if a few come off as InformedAttribute or AllThereInTheManual. [[/labelnote]]
----
* ActionDad: ''Home Fires'' reveals that he and Lois already have Jon.
* AdaptationalJerkass: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Superman is still the AllLovingHero NiceGuy but he acts quite aloof and distant to Superboy. Post-Season 1, however, he's become very involved in his "little brother's" life, to the point where Superboy complains that he's "pushy".
* AllLovingHero: In theory at least, though not always in action.
* AloofBigBrother: {{Averted|Trope}}. When Superman [[TakeAThirdOption chooses to consider Superboy as a younger brother, rather than being his father like everyone else wanted or refusing to interact as he wanted]], he warms up to him quite considerably, even giving him a Kryptonian name and essentially adopting him.
* BadassBaritone: Fitting a man of his size and gravitas, Superman sports a deep, mature voice.
* BadassCape: As per custom for every version of Superman.
* BigBrotherInstinct: He does not respond well to people trash talking or attacking Conner.
** In the tie-in comics where Superman fried Brainiac with his heat vision for insulting Superboy.
** He took a missile in the chest for Superboy in the season 2 episode ''Alienated''.
** He was Conner's first choice to be his Best Man for his wedding and said 'Yes' before fully processing the fact that Conner was even getting married since he's been busy off world.
* BigBrotherMentor: To Superboy in Season 2.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Lex Luthor claims he has this.
* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: As with BadassCape, it's Superman. You can't not have this trope.
* TheCape: 'Natch.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: His refusal to leave the Kroloteans behind plants him in the middle of an explosion that can be seen from orbit. He survives, but Superboy knows that failing to save them means he still won't be okay.
* ClarkKenting: Spectacularly done in the tie-in comics, where Clark tags along on Superboy and Miss Martian's mission. Miss Martian instantly recognizes him because she recognizes Conner's face despite his glasses and hat, and tells him so, explaining that Superboy doesn't because he doesn't keep mirrors and rarely sees his own reflection. Clark sheepishly explains that he wants the chance to get to know Superboy as Clark, not Superman.
* CostumeEvolution: Superman spends both Season 1 and 2 in the classic costume the character is traditionally known for, red trunks and all. By the time of Season 3 however he's switched to a new outfit that resembles a mixture of his ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse'' and ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'' costumes.
* EyeBeams: Superman's laser vision makes a return.
* TheFace: He's the most popular and recognizable hero in the world, but he's not the leader of the Justice League. In fact, even with the rotating chairman position, we've never actually seen him in charge once or take any real declarative positions (besides nominating Icon for League induction). He seems content to simply defer to others' opinions and decisions while remaining the League's spokesman.
* FlyingBrick: [[TropeCodifier As ever]].
* HeroicBuild: Has an impressive muscular build and is obviously a hero.
* HesDeadJim: He's first to realize that Black Lightning accidentally killed a mutated little girl because his SuperSenses couldn’t detect a heartbeat.
* HumanAliens: Kryptonians are [[IncrediblyLamePun super]]ficially identical to humans.
* InterspeciesRomance: As tradition, he's in a relationship with Lois Lane. Season 3 reveals that he and Lois now have a son, Jon Kent.
* LastOfHisKind: He's apparently on the lookout for people who share his powers.
-->'''Superman:''' I nominate Icon for League membership.
-->'''Green Arrow:''' Why? Because you suspect Icon might be Kryptonian like you did with Captain Marvel?
** He also {{Facepalm}}s when the Collector of Worlds leaves before he can ask if he collected anything from Krypton.
* ParentalSubstitute: Even though [[ParentalNeglect he rejected his "child" in the beginning]], he counts as this to Superboy.
* PrimaryColorChampion: As per tradition, Superman still wears a blue uniform with his famous red-and-yellow "S" shield on his chest, red trunks, a yellow belt, red boots and a red cape.
* ShipperOnDeck: For Conner and M'gann. When Conner asks him to be his best man at his wedding, he quickly accepts without even getting to the specifics first.
* SuperSenses: Enhanced vision and hearing. Probably the other three as well, but the two main ones are those.
* SuperSpeed: Although Weisman prefers "enhanced speed" - he's slower than Kid Flash who is slower than the other three speedsters.
* SuperStrength: Again, Superman. He can support a collapsing bridge and lift a bus into the air, which Superboy was struggling to lift. He's twice as as strong as his half-brother and arguably the strongest member on the League.
* RedIsHeroic: Per usual for every version of Superman to wear a red cape.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: Either as Superman or Clark Kent, he qualifies.
* ThatThingIsNotMyChild: Deconstructed and [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. There's nothing particularly anti-clone about it and he doesn't actually dislike Superboy, but he's ''not'' happy when Batman calls him Superboy's "father". His rationalization is that Conner will do better with role models who don't have all their baggage. Also, to be fair, pretty much anybody would be freaked out by the idea of a younger copy of themselves walking around. Since he is [[AllLovingHero Superman]] he never acts in a negative way towards Conner and is simply distant and visibly uncomfortable around Conner but not repulsed or disgusted. By Season 2, He's comfortably referring to Conner as a little brother. Doubles as a MythologyGag to the comics, where both the Silver Age and Clone Superboys were involved in a "Cool Big Brother" dynamic. Clark with Mon-El, Conner with Clark.
* TookALevelInKindness: In season 2, in which he accepts Superboy. Not that he was horrifically unkind before so much as too distant for his own good.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: His reaction when he learns ComicBook/LexLuthor took the credit for stopping the Reach and is now the favorite for "new secretary-general of the United Nations". It's actually quite funny.

->''"When all is said and done, the question must be - whom do we trust?"''

Wonder Woman seems to stand as the moral center of the League. She takes a backseat in the story for the majority of the time, but is quick to call Superman and Batman out on their mistakes, and takes on Wonder Girl as her protege between seasons 1 and 2.
----
* AdaptationalModesty: While still muscular and buxom, this incarnation's iconic bustier covers her cleavage entirely.
* CostumeEvolution: Wears her traditional outfit from the comics in Season 1 and 2. By the time of Season 3 her costume has changed to have elements from both ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'' and more notably the ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse''.
* FlyingBrick: Has superhuman strength and can fly.
* FriendToAllChildren: {{Implied|Trope}}. She didn't agree with Batman's choice of letting Robin I enter the world of crimefighting at the age of nine; earlier, Wonder Woman didn't like the idea of Captain Marvel being in the League when he is only ten and was quite upset he (along with Batman) withheld the information.
* TheHeart: Acts as the moral center of the League.
* TheLeader: In ''Outsiders'', she and Kaldur are co-chairmen of the Justice League with Kaldur handling the part of the League still on Earth while she's leading the rest of the League in space.
* OlderThanSheLooks: Her official stats say she's ninety years old (of course, she ''is'' partially immortal; physically, she's roughly in her 30s).
* PrimaryColorChampion: As per tradition, she still wears a strapless red bustier held up by a brace of gold resembling two W's, a large golden belt, blue briefs with five white stars on them, red boots with a white stripe on the front side, silver bracelets around her wrists, red star earrings, and a golden diadem with a red star on her forehead.
* RapunzelHair: Reaches down her waist.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: Long, raven hair and has a pale complexion.
* SuperStrength: Enough to rival Superman.
* TokenGoodTeammate: [[spoiler:Downplayed; while everyone involved in the "Anti-Light" conspiracy is a hero, Diana is the only one to voice reservations about what they're doing, and won't hesitate to call the others out when she feels they've gone too far.]]
* WarriorPrincess: She's the daughter of Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, and she kicks ass. Drawing from her Amazonian training, Wonder Woman is quite adept in close-range battle. Using her bracelets, she is able to skillfully deflect incoming projectiles.

!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/GeorgeEads (Season 1, "Bloodlines"), Creator/JamesArnoldTaylor ("Endgame")

Mentor to Kid Flash, ''the'' Flash has taken up his mantel from its previous owner, Garrick. He's a dedicated uncle and mentor, and one of the more friendly League members, though still serious when needed.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: This version of Barry is faster than Wally, a reversal of the comics were Wally was even faster than him, thus making him one of the most powerful characters in the setting. The reason for him being faster is that this version of the accident was the perfected version, bonding with his molecules, whereas Wally's was an inferior product with genuine consequences.
* AscendedFanboy: In the tie-in comics, Wally explains that Barry was a big fan of The Flash and spent a lot of time talking to Jay Garrick before duplicating the FreakLabAccident that gave him his powers.
* BigEater: Pretty much a given because he has to eat to regain his super speed.
* CatchPhrase: "[[IncrediblyLamePun Back in a flash!]]" Lampshaded by the Flash Family.
-->'''Impulse''': "Does he say that often?"
-->'''Rest of the Family''': *sigh* "Too often."
* CoolUncle: He's a little dorky, but Wally thinks he's cool.
* CostumeEvolution: His outfit in Seasons 1 and 2 was essentially the same look as that featured in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueCrisisOnTwoEarths'' and ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueDoom'', which itself was a slightly more anatomically realistic take on Wally West's Flash design from ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague''. By Season 3 his costume now looks more similar to his counterpart from the ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse''.
* ExpressiveMask: In previous seasons, but now his regular eyes are visible in costumes as of ''Outsiders''.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: A NiceGuy who's also a super hero.
* HappilyMarried: To Wally West's aunt Iris.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Married to Iris, who has the same red hair color as Wally.
* HotScientist: When The Flash becomes Barry Allen, he's a CSI for the police; Barry has a degree in forensic science.
* InSeriesNickname: "Bartholomew" is his full name, but he's nicknamed "Barry".
* InterspeciesRomance: Him (a metahuman) and Iris (a human).
* LegacyCharacter: As seen in "Downtime", the Flash family has had several generations of speedsters.
* LongingLook: To Iris in "Failsafe," but subtle since they're on air at the time and aliens are killing everyone.
* MundaneUtility: In "Downtime", he uses his super speed to clear the dinner table inside of ten seconds.
* NiceGuy: Which Mary West has been heard to hope will rub off on Wally.
* NotHisSled: In the finale he recreates his famous death scene with his two proteges. Except in a twist he doesn't die -- Wally does. It even looked like he was going to give his life to save Wally's, but when Barry got to him, Wally was already beyond saving.
* OhCrap: A much more tragic and heartbreaking one, but the look on his face when it's clear that he can't save Wally in Endgame is all over this.
* RedIsHeroic: Like always The Flash is a hero and sports his signature red suit.
* ScienceHero: He gained his powers by carefully recreating Jay Garrick's accident in a controlled experiment, and is a police scientist in his day job.
-->'''Kid Flash:''' "Are you having a CSI moment?"
-->'''Flash:''' "Kid, I was [=CSI=] before anybody knew what [=CSI=] was."
* SuperSenses: Flash can also speak, hear, and see faster than any normal being.
* SuperSpeed: He's the Flash. Fastest man alive and all that.

A former Air Force pilot and the first human Green Lantern.
----
* ImaginationBasedSuperpower: Being a Green Lantern, his ring can create anything he can think of.
* MythologyGag: In the comics, Hal suffering from RapidAging was a result of being influenced by Parallax, an evil parasite in his power ring that would eventually [[DemonicPossession possess him]].
* OutOfFocus: He has the least amount of focus out of the founding members of the league, and has no little to no dialogue of his own so far.
* SkunkStripe: By Season 3, he has gained gray temples.
* SpacePolice: The entire point of Green Lanterns in the first place.
* TheVoiceless:...except for when Flash suggests they recruit Guy Gardner to the League, which he responds to with a firm "No." and another "No." when Flash tries to defend him.

King of Atlantis, mentor to Aqualad, and later Lagoon Boy.
----
* ActionDad: He is one after Season 1.
* BadassBeard: Much like [[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold another Aquaman]], he maintains his classic look whilst having the beard the character was first seen with during the 90's.
* ChewToy: He thinks Aqualad has betrayed him, Aquagirl is dead, and Lagoon Boy has been captured by Aqualad and Black Manta.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Seems to be an Atlantean thing; webbed feet do make swimming easier, though.
* TheGoodKing: Of Atlantis.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: A wise and reasonable adult, who happens to be a hero.
* HappilyMarried: He has a close and loving relationship with Queen Mera.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Is married to Mera.
* MyGreatestFailure: Believes Kaldur'ahm's FaceHeelTurn to be his, not knowing that he's really been undercover.
* NiceGuy: A good king in front and away from the public eye.
* OvershadowedByAwesome: By, of all people, his sidekick. This comes to a head in ''Outsiders'', as Kaldur actually succeeds him as the new Aquaman.
* PutOnABus: By ''Outsiders'', Aquaman has evidently retired from superheroics and succeeded by his former apprentice Kaldur in the title. Mera appears along with his son Artur, suggesting he's focusing on kingly and family duties instead. As such, he has yet to make an appearance in the season.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Aside from running his kingdom, he is an active member of the Justice League.

!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson

The uncle of Miss Martian, this green skinned alien is a serious and reserved figure, though still a kind one. He clearly cares deeply for his niece, and is a formidable super-hero.
----
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Inverted. In the comics, J'onn is the LastOfHisKind, but not in this adaptation.
* BadassBaritone: A given when voiced by Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson.
* BaldOfAwesome: J'onn is a completely hairless Green Martian and even his humanlike form does not have any hair, unlike Miss Martian's original humanlike form.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: Kevin Michael Richardson seems to be channeling Creator/{{Carl|Lumbly}} [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague Lumbly]] in his performance for J'onn.
* CompositeCharacter: Not of J'onn himself, but of his family. Earth-16's versions of Martian Manhunter and Miss Martian are a biologically related uncle and niece with Miss Martian being his sister's daughter, while in the comics they treat each other as family in an adoptive sense. No other version of J'onn is known to have a sister, only a brother, and both of Miss Martian's parents are good White Martians like her. This version of M'gann's mother retains most of the qualities of the original character, except she is a Green Martian and takes the place of J'onn's brother Ma'alefa'ak.
* DecompositeCharacter: Some facets of his comic book self have been notably shifted over to his niece Miss Martian, such as being the world's most powerful telepath and being the sibling of Ma'alefa'ak.
%%* IntangibleMan
%%* {{Invisibility}}
%%* KillerGameMaster: His alien invasion is the new tomb of horrors.
* LastOfHisKind: Surprisingly averted, given the character's other modern incarnations. His family alone includes ''hundreds'' [[MassiveNumberedSiblings of nieces and nephews]]. [[note]] As Greg Weisman has noted, the idea that J'onn was the last Martian was not present during the original Silver Age stories, and they chose not to include that in the Earth-16 version, in part because they felt it was too similar to Superman's last-of-his-kind schtick, while also not being as integral to the character's backstory.[[/note]]
%%* MindOverMatter
* NiceGuy: J'onn is a mellow, kindly man, even taking a moment to gently, albeit firmly, chide Batman when he fails to understand why the Team isn't bouncing back from their traumatic experience in "Failsafe".
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: 135 Earth-years old - in [[WeAreAsMayflies Martian terms]], mid-forties.
* ShapeshifterDefaultForm: According to WordOfGod, J'onn's [[http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=15057 natural form]] is pretty similar to M'gann's, except bigger and greener.
%%* ShapeShifting
* {{Telepathy}}: A staple of the Martian Manhunter, although unlike his comic counterpart, he is outpaced in terms of potential by his own niece.

Zatara appears to be one of the older Leaguers-- while Martian Manhunter and Wonder Woman have the years, they age differently. Zatara took a turn as the team's Den Mother after Captain Marvel and later brought his daughter, Zatanna, to meet them.
----
* BadassInANiceSuit: A very capable mage, in a very fancy suit.
%%* BadassMustache
* HeroicSacrifice: Allows Nabu to take him as a host to save Zatanna from the same fate.
* LegacyCharacter: Becomes the new Doctor Fate, though not by choice.
* MagiciansAreWizards: Both a stage magician and a powerful wizard.
* NiceHat: A top hat, to be specific.
* OverProtectiveDad: Considering how [[SquishyWizard weak]] Zatanna seems to be in actual combat at this point, this may be justified.
** Even as the new Doctor Fate his fatherly instincts make a quick surfacing when Zatanna is considered for League membership.
* PapaWolf: It even shows as the new Doctor Fate, which is immediately remarked upon by the rest of the League.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: As of "Misplaced", Zatara is the new Doctor Fate. At least he's not dead, though Zatanna is effectively orphaned.
* StageMagician: Looks like one, but has real magic.
* TakeMeInstead: When Nabu has taken over Zatanna, Zatara begs him to spare her and take his body instead. Nabu complies after Zatara [[IGaveMyWord geases himself to put on the Helmet of Fate if Nabu lets Zatanna go]].
* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: Zatanna is the only member of the family in the comics to be a Leaguer.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: Not for the first two seasons, but he is by Season 3. He's 47 years old at this time, but looks a decade older than that ''at the least''. His black hair has turned completely white, and his face has become wrinkled with a tired visage. Wearing the Helmet of Fate seems to be having a deteriorating effect on his body.

A time-displaced veteran of the Vietnam War, [[AllThereInTheManual Captain Atom was brought in to teach the team espionage and covert ops techniques]]. By season two, he's taken over as the Justice League's current leader.
----

* AllThereInTheManual: If you thought his cameo in ''Homefront'' was out of left field, the tie-in comics explain that he was the team's instructor in covert ops. For practical experience, they cleared his name after he was accused of war crimes during the Vietnam War, which allowed him to reestablish contact with his estranged wife and adult children, so he knows the team, is grateful to them, and would be just as concerned as their other mentors when they realized something was wrong at Mount Justice. The tie-in comics also establish that Captain Atom was one of the first superheroes Jaime met, probably suggested him for recruitment, and Jaime respected him enough that he wanted to consult him before joining the team.
* AdaptationalNameChange: In the original comics, his name is Nathaniel ''Adam'', with no 's' on the end, to drive home his PunnyName that much more. Weisman (who, as noted below, helped relaunch the character in the '80s) commented that it sounded unnatural to him even then and took the opportunity to adjust it.
* BigGood: He's League Chairman in Season 2. He's a lot more hands-off than Batman, mostly because the Team has more than proven themselves by this point.
* CaptainSuperhero
* ClearMyName: In the tie-in comic he sends the Team to do that. He doesn't tell them whose name they're clearing, though.
* EnergyAbsorption: One of his powers-- he's seen absorbing the energy of a power plant about to go nuclear in ''Revelations.''
* MilitarySuperhero: More apparent in the tie-in comic, but also informs his leadership style in season two.
* TheLeader: As League Chairman.
* OlderThanHeLooks: He's actually 70 years old but, other than the white hair, doesn't look a day over 40.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Upon G. Gordon Godrey's speculation that Lex Luthor would be the next Secretary General of the United Nations, Cap formally resigned his Chairmanship of the League.

A powerful hand-to-hand fighter aided with her "sonic scream", Black Canary is one of the main mentors to the team. Although her role was initially to train them in fighting and make sure they didn't get into trouble, she stepped into a more emotionally supportive role, even offering them therapy sessions when necessary. In a relationship with Green Arrow.
----
* AuthorAppeal: Creator/GregWeisman [[WordOfGod admits]] that her prominent role is at least partially because she's his favorite DC character.
* BadassTeacher: The combat teacher to the Team. And one-upped [[SuperStrength Superboy]].
* BigGood: She's made the new League Chairman in the second season finale.
* BoundAndGagged: In "Auld Acquaintance".
* BrutalHonesty: Likes to get right to the point.
* CoolBigSis: Her relationship with Red Arrow, according to WordOfGod.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Wears black clothing and she's a heroine.
* DudeMagnet: Besides being in a relationship with Green Arrow, Kid Flash flirted with her the first time they meet. M'gann took Dinah's form to engage in a shapeshifter makeout game with Superboy, implying the young man has a small crush on her. And one of Victor Stone's classmates commented that he had a crush on her.
* FightsLikeANormal: As usual, she is a very capable fighter without using her powers. Just ask Superboy.
* FingerlessGloves: Has a pair of black, elbow-length fingerless gloves.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Despite her demeanor, she's an easy person to talk to.
* HotTeacher: She has [[ChivalrousPervert Wally]] drooling over her, and though Superboy isn't exactly the most emotive of the cast, he clearly has a crush on her.
* InterspeciesRomance: Her (a metahuman) and Green Arrow (a human).
* LegacyCharacter: Is the daughter of the original Black Canary according to WordOfGod.
* MakeMeWannaShout: When she actually uses her powers, which is rare.
* MeaningfulName: "Dinah" is Hebrew for "judged", like how she judged (not harshly), but truly the psyches of the members of the Team. See WarriorTherapist.
* MsFanservice: She embodies this trope as much as Creator/CartoonNetwork would allow, given her [[BoobsOfSteel buxom]] and [[ShesGotLegs legs]].
* NiceGirl: Dinah is compassionate, patient, and understanding, even when she's shown disrespect (by Superboy in "Schooled") or angry (with Miss Martian, in "Identity").
* OfficialCouple: With Green Arrow.
* ResignedToTheCall: Her reaction to becoming League Chairman.
* SexyMentor: To Superboy, leading to M'gann taking her form in a little shapeshifter makeout game with him. Dinah herself is not pleased.
* ShipperOnDeck: Implied. During her private therapy conversations with Wally and Artemis in "Disordered", she points out the former's extreme reaction to Artemis's "death" in the previous episode and the latter being concerned with how Wally would take the reveal of her family's villainous history. Also, when she notes that in regards to Artemis, she briefly smiles to herself.
* SternTeacher: To the Team, but gives praise when it is deserved.
* TaughtByExperience: Firmly believes that injuries and setbacks in missions is "part of the hero's job" and helps mature the hero.
* WarriorTherapist: As shown in "Disordered". Not only does she train the Team, she helps them deal with trauma.
* WhatTheHellHero: Canary calls out Green Arrow for going behind Kaldur's back to join Batman in resigning from the League. She's so angry that she refuses to consider leaving with them, coldly telling Oliver to just leave.
* YouAreNotAlone: {{Invoked|Trope}}. Black Canary tries to tell Clone!Roy that even though he feels lost, that doesn't means he's alone. Sadly, it doesn't sink in.

'''Billy Batson voiced by:''' Creator/RobertOchoa (Season 1), Chad Lowe (Season 2)

Though on the surface just a brave and chivalrous super-hero, Captain Marvel is actually just a good-hearted young boy in a powered adult's body. A little boy who just really, ''really'' wants the Team and Justice League to like him. Don't let his puppy-dog demeanor fool you, though. His good nature earned his powerful abilities, and when he's not fooling around, he's pretty wise, too.
----
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Being a young boy on the inside, Billy can be easily distracted by something cool. Like tigers.
* AscendedFanboy: Billy idolizes all heroes and is a hero himself who works with said heroes he looks up to.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. After his real age was found out, a few of the Leaguers wondered if Captain Marvel should be on the team because of it. And that while he may have the Wisdom of Solomon, that doesn't mean he's mature.
* BrainyBrunette: He has black hair and the Wisdom of Solomon.
* ButtMonkey: He constantly tries to get close to the team, who are essentially his peers. The team tends to assume that he's as authoritarian and hard-nosed as the other members of the League, so they (often unintentionally) undermine, take advantage of, or otherwise reject him in the process of saving the day. It's probably not the case after Billy revealed who he really was to them in "Misplaced".
* CaptainSuperhero
* CostumeEvolution: Averted. Unlike most of the league in ''Outsiders'', Billy's Captain Marvel form hasn't changed to match his comic counterparts' modern design.
* CallingYourAttacks: He would sometimes announce or reference which of his powers he was using at a time, whether it was using the Power of Zeus and Speed of Mercury to drill into the ground, or cite the Wisdom of Solomon as the source of his good advice.
* FlyingBrick: His comic counterpart was one of the first flying bricks in comics, so it carries over here.
* HenshinHero: Transforms from the powerless Billy to superpowered Captain Marvel.
* HeroicBuild: He has a big build and besides being a hero, he's one of the nicest.
* HonoraryTrueCompanion: Honorary because he won't join the Team; he's part of the Justice League. During Invasion, the League usually paired with former team members Rocket and Zatanna, and he was with Zatanna helping the group who lived at Mount Justice move.
* InnocentBlueEyes
* ImStandingRightHere: After his secret's revealed to the League at large, they have to debate whether he can stay.
-->'''Red Tornado:''' He does possess an adult body and the wisdom of Solomon.
-->'''Aquaman:''' Wisdom does not equal maturity.
-->'''Marvel:''' Hey, I'm sitting right here!
* JustAKid: He gets this treatment from some of the League in "Agendas" after real age was revealed.
* ManChild: As with [[ComicBook/{{Shazam}} the comic example]], Captain Marvel is really a kid. However, none of the teens know his real form, so he definitely comes off as being this trope.
* MorphicResonance: As a young adult, Billy now shares the same voice as Captain Marvel.
* {{Nephewism}}: In this version, Billy is being properly cared for by his Uncle Dudley.
* NiceGuy: The nicest.
* OlderAlterEgo: He's a kid when he's not being Captain Marvel.
* OneOfTheKids: Captain Marvel is known for retaining his innocence, but this incarnation is especially childish.
* PapaWolf: In order to protect the team from Despero. Considering his true age, maybe its more of a BigBrotherInstinct.
* PrimaryColorChampion: His costume is mostly red with gold accents like his thunder bolt logo, sash, and boots. He also wears a white cape.
* SecretKeeper: Billy has to keep the identity of Captain Marvel a secret due to the fact that he's really a ten-year-old kid. As of "Misplaced", the Team knows about his true identity. It's also clear that Batman knows but other Leaguers like Zatara don't, though they find out after this.
* ShockAndAwe: An unorthodox version: he gets struck by lightning every time he transforms from Billy to Captain Marvel or vice versa, and he's not above weaponizing it when the situation calls for it.
* SixthRanger: How he views himself in regards to the team. Unfortunately for him, the team didn't know that he's a kid until he revealed himself in "Misplaced", so they did what they can to keep him out of the loop.
* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: Billy goes back to the world of kids in Misplaced and asks Miss Martian to read his mind to prove that he's really Captain Marvel. Kid Flash doesn't buy it. Then, Billy goes:
-->'''Billy:''' Gee Wally, do I ''really'' have to bring you nachos and pineapple juice to get on your good side?
* SuperStrength: He's as strong as Superman.
* TagalongKid: Despite never being a kid at the time.
* WeaksauceWeakness: He'll revert back to Billy if he's ever tricked (or magically forced) to say "Shazam".
* WhatTheHellHero: In "Agendas", he's the first Leaguer to call out Nabu for the events of "Misplaced". He doesn't know why they're even keeping him in the League.
** Shortly after, however, the rest of the League, particularly Wonder Woman, call ''him'' out for concealing his age.
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: {{Lampshaded|Trope}} by Captain Marvel himself (the "wise" part anyway), when Aqualad thanks him for a pep talk.
-->'''Marvel:''' Hey, wisdom of Solomon.
** Seems to be in an "Only when I feel like it" way, since whenever nothing serious is going down, he's just a big kid.
** As pointed out by Aquaman when the League finds out about his alter-ego, "wisdom" doesn't necessarily mean "maturity".
* YouDidntAsk: The reason why he hid his age from the Justice League.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: As Captain Marvel. Billy looks his young age.

A robot with wind powers, Red Tornado doesn't quite ''get'' human emotions. That doesn't stop him for caring deeply for the Team he's been assigned to protect, (in his own way).

%%* BadassCape
* BlowYouAway: He has the power to generate wind.
* ColorCharacter: '''Red''' Tornado.
* DemotedToExtra: He's conspicuously absent in the second season (likely because Nightwing and the others have replaced him in the mentor role), and has only had two non-speaking appearances in "War" and "Summit".
* FaceHeelTurn: Subverted. It seems as if he defects in "Homefront", but in reality, he leaves to protect the Team and to find his creator, T.O. Morrow.
* FakeDefector: See FaceHeelTurn above.
* HelpingWouldBeKillstealing: Every time the team ask for help he tells them they have to do it on their own.

* MundaneUtility: In ''Outsiders'', he demonstrates that his wind powers aren't just useful in heroism; they're also good for parlor tricks to entertain children.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
* OldSuperhero: It's revealed that before the [[Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica Justice League]] was formed, he was part of the ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica (see below) decades earlier. Of course, being an android, he hasn't physically aged.
* PrimaryColorChampion: He's a red robot who has a yellow T symbol on his chest, and a yellow arrow on his forehead. He also wears a blue cape.
* RedIsHeroic: He's a heroic, red robot.
%%* RobotBuddy
* TheStoic: He is a robot, so stoicism isn't unexpected for him. "Auld Acquaintance", however, shows that, while in his "John Smith" body, he can display emotion far more readily. [[NotSoStoic Specifically, when ordering the team to get out of the cave, the urgency in his voice is especially noticeable]].
* TeamMom: Tornado's role in Season 1 is to act as a den mother to the Team.
* TookALevelInKindness: He became the Den Mother in order to become more human. It has had an effect, as he's come to care for the Team... and later on, his "father." By Season 3 he has adopted a daughter as John Smith and happily plays with children by creating little tornadoes to amuse them.

An ancient being tasked with protecting the world from the powers of chaos, Dr. Fate must take on a mortal body as his host- and he doesn't much care what said host has to say about it. While he can be a major asset to the forces of good, the price paid might sometimes be too high.
----
* AdaptationOriginConnection: Nabu is revealed to be a son of Vandal Savage from Babylonian times in this continuity, which is something that hasn't ever happenned in the comics or any other adaptations before.
* AndIMustScream: Fate's host is trapped inside their own head, able to observe how Nabu controls them but are unable to do anything about it. Nabu himself is trapped in the Helmet of Fate and part of his lack of concern over possessing his host is because he's sick of being nothing more than an ornament.
* AttackReflector: In "War", he is able to absorb the beam from the [=WarWorld=]'s WaveMotionGun and send it right back, utterly wrecking the gun.
* BadassBaritone: A deep voice courtesy of Mr. Richardson.
* BadassBoast: In ''Revelation'', he gives a nice one as he disperses the Joker Venom.
-->'''"Fear not! Fate has intervened!"'''
* BadassCape: Whoever wears the Helmet of Fate get a badass golden one.
* BodySnatcher: How many regard him, especially Captain Marvel.
* BrutalHonesty: He tends not to bother with beating around the bush, most of the time. This is actually one of his better traits, since the League knows he doesn't bother with lying, such as when he explains ''why'' Zatara, his current host, wants him on the League - [[MoralityChain so they can keep an eye on him]].
* ClingyCostume: Once someone puts on the Helmet of Fate, it cannot be removed unless Nabu wants it to.
* CombatStilettos: When possessing Zatanna.
* ConverseWithTheUnconscious: Regularly converses with whoever is serving as his host, even though he's fully inhabiting their body.
* CoolHelmet: Essentially IS the helmet.
* DeadpanSnarker: Very occasionally.
* TheFaceless: Nabu's original body is never seen without his helmet, and the ones who later wear it have to essentially give up their own identities to be Doctor Fate, which is why Kent Nelson stopped wearing it for a time.
* ForbiddenChekhovsGun: The helmet is mentioned during a crisis and the League considers if they're desperate enough to use it - mainly because Nabu doesn't particularly like the idea of relinquishing his host. Every time someone puts the helmet on it's because the situation has crossed the GodzillaThreshold.
* GoodIsNotNice: He's never claimed to be nice. Or even specifically good, for that matter.
* TheHatMakesTheMan: Possesses the body of whoever puts on the Helmet.
* HauntedFetter: The Helmet is possessed by Nabu, who in turn possesses whoever puts it on.
* {{Jerkass}}: Nabu is arrogant, prideful, blunt, callous, and self-righteous; while he's on the side of good, few people are particularly pleased by his company.
* KilledOffForReal: Kent Nelson. His spirit did reside in the Helmet of Fate for a while, but Fate eventually got tired of his nagging every time someone used the helmet and sent him off to the afterlife.
* LargeHam: He's not too emotive, but nearly everything Nabu says has a tremendous amount of gravitas.
-->'''"Wotan! You are mine!"'''
* LegacyCharacter: Several people have wore the Helmet of Fate, but most of them temporarily.
* LightIsNotGood: A borderline example. Calling him good is generous, all things considered, yet, his golden light powers and ankh symbol definitely render him light aligned.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: Like his father Vandal, Nabu is a WellIntentionedExtremist willing to cross quite a few moral lines for the sake of the greater good. Like Vandal, he's also somewhat sympathetic to family bonds.
* MaskOfPower: The Helmet of Fate turns the wearer into a host for an extremely powerful Lord of Order, who's got some crazy powerful magic abilities.
* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: He's called Doctor Fate, but whether he is a doctor is unspecified. He's also not particularly nice.
* NotSoStoic: Sometimes, partly because it's hinted that he was lonely all those years being left on a shelf, partly because it's indicated that his personality is at least somewhat influenced by whoever is serving as host at the time. For instance, when being hosted by Zatara, he breaks his usual emotionless attitude when Zatanna is considered for League membership. This is noticed by the rest of the League.
* OrderVersusChaos: Represents order, and not necessarily in a very nice (or classically good) way.
* PetTheDog: He listens to Kent Nelson, who's just about the only person who can persuade him to do anything, until Nabu eventually gets tired of his nagging to release those who put on his helmet, and releases him to the afterlife.
** He also accepts Zatara's promise to become the new host of Fate and willingly releases Zatanna, even though he'd have no control over whether or not Zatara actually followed through.
** It's revealed in Season 3 that he lets Zatanna and Zatara speak for one hour every year. Considering he's under no obligation to grant them even that meager time, that he allows it all is kind... for him.
* PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: Wearing the Helmet of Fate will make the wearer speak with Nabu's deep voice overlaying their voice.
* PowersThatBe: Is a personification of order given form on the physical plane.
* PowersViaPossession: How Fate works - though it is indicated that it helps if the host is already magically gifted.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In Season 3, Nabu is revealed to be Vandal Savage's son from Ancient Babylon, where Savage was ruling as the god-king Marduk. Nabu also had a sister who's remembered as the goddess Ishtar.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: When discussing whether or not to release Wally as his host, Nabu first mentions how lonely and depressing his existence as a helmet on shelf is before loudly asserting that he just wants to stop the forces of Chaos. Seeing as Kent agrees to hang around and keep Nabu company, it wasn't a very convincing claim.
* TokenEvilTeammate: While more morally ambiguous than outright evil, compared to the rest of the League, he's very dark. The League serves as a MoralityChain on him, a status he doesn't object to - he outright states that his current host wants him on the League for this exact reason.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Implied by the fact that Kent, his original host, had a full life outside of being Doctor Fate, suggesting that Nabu used to be more relaxed about being put on and taken off. Several decades on a shelf seem to have somewhat soured his disposition and made him very disinclined to release his host.
* TookALevelInKindness: His disposition improves somewhat after getting a permanent host.
* UnscrupulousHero: His actions are motivated purely by a desire to maintain order rather than any moral compulsion and he has few qualms about suppressing the identity of anyone he possesses, even if they're children - though he was convinced to release both Kid Flash and Aqualad without anyone else sacrificing themselves, and he is at least aware that putting on the helmet ''is'' a sacrifice. For example, when he possesses Zatanna:
-->'''"Fate decrees her sacrifice will not be in vain!"'''
* VoiceOfTheLegion: A ([[AntiHero largely]]) heroic example. Whoever wears the Helmet of Fate will speak with Nabu's deep voice overlying their voice.
* WasOnceAMan: Nabu was once a warrior living in ancient Babylonia, a son of Marduk (aka Vandal Savage) who died fighting by his father's side. Now, he's an incorporeal Lord of Order, bound to his helmet and needing a human host to influence the world around him.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He is absolutely convinced that the world needs him (and not without reason), and if that means whatever mortal happens to be wearing the helmet never gets to take it off, so be it. It's reached the point that Captain Marvel doesn't understand why they're letting him stay in the League, and is justifiably skeptical when Nabu claims that Zatara wants him to remain part of the League. Nabu then explains that Zatara wants him there so they can [[MoralityChain keep an eye on him]].
* WillingChanneler: Someone has to choose to put him on, though they might come to regret it.

->''"I don't need help from the Junior Justice League.''"

Red Arrow, formerly Speedy, was the junior partner of Green Arrow who trained the young man in the use of trick arrows as crimefighting tools. After being disgusted with the Justice League's idea of "bringing them into the circle", the younger archer set out on his own, leaving Aqualad, Robin, and Kid Flash to decide what to do with themselves by themselves. However, he's admitted that he respects the team, and that if they ever need a hand he's willing to help. He joins the team in "Insecurity", to set a good example for the others until he officially joins the Justice League, and not-so-secretly to uncover TheMole he suspects is on the team.

In "Usual Suspects" and "Auld Acquaintance" it's revealed ''he'' was TheMole all along, a ManchurianAgent planted on ComicBook/GreenArrow by The Light. Moreover, he isn't even the "real" Roy Harper, but a ''clone'' of Roy, that replaced the original mere months after Green Arrow took him on as his sidekick. After announcing his resignation from both the Justice League and the Team, Roy vows to find the original Speedy, who is last seen frozen in one of The Light's facilities and mysteriously missing his right arm.

Five years later, we find Red Arrow married to Cheshire, though the two have an on-again-off-again relationship due to Roy's obsession with finding the previous Speedy. The two also have a daughter, named Lian Nguyen-Harper. During the events of "Salvage" and "Bloodlines" the couple reconciles, and using Cheshire's underworld connections, Roy is finally able to locate and rescue Green Arrow's original sidekick.

By the time of ''Outsiders'', he runs a private security company called ''Bowhunter Security'' while taking the name Will.

----
* ActionDad: In Season 2 he has a daughter, and straightens up partly for her sake.
* AloofBigBrother: To Aqualad, Robin, and Kid Flash. He's protective of them and has absolute faith in their trustworthiness, but he deliberately sets himself apart from them and belittles their choices for the first ten episodes. On their end, they all respect his opinions, trust him implicitly, and, in the early episodes, have an adorable tendency to parrot anything he says about how the adults just don't understand.
* BabiesEverAfter: Has a daughter, Lian, with Jade/Cheshire in season 2.
* BackForTheFinale: In both seasons.
* BadassBeard: Has grown one in the third season, in contrast to the BeardOfSorrow he had in season 2.
* BadassNormal: His skill with the bow is such that he was able to aim for (and actually ''hit'') a target that ''Artemis'' (who's been shown to hit multiple targets at once) didn't want to risk aiming at. On the other hand, Artemis's reluctance likely had something to do with her desire to keep her relation to Cheshire and Sportsmaster a secret, the latter being the target Speedy hit.
* BattleCouple: With Cheshire, his wife as of season 2. They battle the henchman of a Tibetan monastery who were guarding the original Roy Harper...along with their infant daughter.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: In season one, Roy made it clear how much he wanted to join the Justice League. He gets his wish...and then discovers he was the brainwashed mole for the The Light and a clone.
* BeardOfSorrow: Has one in "Salvage", but soon shaves it off after finding out he's a father.
* BenevolentBoss: "Private Security" implies he gets along really well with the men he employs at Bowhunter Security, casually mentioning that he attends company softball games and post-game parties with them. When he adds his usual staff all got food poisoning the night before, there's no annoyance or frustration in his voice. And since he had to find suitable replacements for the goggle delivery job, it's telling how patient he is with them.
* BerserkButton: Being called a sidekick.
* BetterAsFriends: [[spoiler:Ultimately where he and Artemis start and then end up again in season 3]].
* BigBeautifulMan:
** By Season 3 he's put on some weight and is sporting a visible belly. Fan reception of Will's dad bod has been mostly positive since he's still attractive and has no issue fighting alongside Dick, Roy, and Jim. It also serves as a contrast to how malnourished and sickly he was in Season 2, with his weight gain indicating he's taking better care of himself and thus makes him more attractive since it's an improvement to his health.
** On another level, his weight gain works as a metaphor for his change in demeanor. His midsection softened just as his personality did.
* BigFun: Well not as extreme as most uses of this trope, but it's telling he seemed to have gained an honest to God sense of humor along with his belly. Given how rarely he joked in the past two seasons, and how often said jokes were rather dry and/or mean, it's a significant change for him.
* BigLittleBrother: Technically to the original Roy Harper AKA Arsenal. Red Arrow is chronologically 8 years old in season 2, but physically 23; Arsenal is actually 23, but his body is still that of a 15-year-old due to being a HumanPopsicle. {{Inverted}} with Red Arrow and Jim Harper, since the former is technically older, while the latter was force grown to appear older.
* BornAsAnAdult: He was force grown to look 15 by the time he was fully created.
* CharacterDevelopment: He goes from a hot-tempered, disrespectful sidekick before turning solo to a self-hating hero with a ton of CloningBlues to a happier, nicer, and more adjusted man, business owner, and father.
* ClipboardOfAuthority: PlayedForLaughs, as he treats his Bowhunter Security Clipboard as SeriousBusiness, deliberately flipping through it to annoy Dick, and later his documents on the clipboard allow him to stop Brick's scheme to steal Goode Goggles, as Brick's men are not the ones listed on the clipboard, and he even uses it as an ImprovisedWeapon to take out Brick.
* ClonesArePeopleToo: Even after finding out he was a clone, he eventually got married and had a daughter.
* CloningBlues: The Roy seen throughout season 1 is a clone, and his existential angst about this revelation has nearly destroyed him by the beginning of season 2. Luckily, Cheshire steps in to save him from himself. Come Season 3 he started going by "Will" to further cement he's his own person and not a knock off of Roy Harper.
* DarkIsNotEvil: His "Red Arrow" outfit is mostly black. Ultimately played with when it's discovered he's TheMole; he wasn't doing it on purpose and thought he was the good guy.
* DatingCatwoman: With Cheshire.
* DeadpanSnarker: Like Wally, more deadpan than snarky. The snarkiness becomes more playful in Season 3.
* DecompositeCharacter: Once Arsenal shows up. They borrow different elements from the original comic book Speedy, who has gone by both Red Arrow and Arsenal, does not have a clone, and is the father of Lian by Cheshire.
* DisappearedDad: {{Justified|Trope}} and {{downplayed|Trope}}, to Lian. For the former, Cheshire willingly didn't inform him about being pregnant because his obsession with finding Speedy left little for him to be with his loved ones, so he couldn't properly take care of a baby. For the latter, it was roughly a year before he found he was a father and after so, he began taking his parental roles seriously.
* EvilRedhead: {{Enforced|Trope}}. Red Arrow turns out to be the clone of the original Roy Harper and was programmed by the Light to infiltrate the Justice League.
* ExpressiveMask: His DominoMask can show a variety of expressions.
* FashionableAsymmetry: Roy's Red Arrow outfit is nearly the same, except for the gloves: His left arm has a longer gloves with holes, while he has shorter glove, with no holes, on his hand. This actually serves a purpose; it acts as an arm guard, to prevent Roy from hitting his own arm with the string of his bow when firing.
* FieryRedhead: A short-tempered and judgmental redhead. [[TookALevelInKindness He gets better]].
* FingerlessGloves: Wears them in his Red Arrow gear.
* {{Foil}}: To Arsenal. Both are presented as {{Jerkass}}es whose main redeeming trait is that they're still fighting on the good team. They each start with an obsessive and selfish personality that serves as their {{fatal flaw}}s. However, Red Arrow represents Arsenal had he took a better path, instead curbing his extremely negative traits, becoming a kind friend and a loving father. Arsenal, on the other hand, represents Red Arrow if he remained on the same path, as he only becomes an even [[TookALevelInJerkass bigger jerk]] who values RevengeBeforeReason, alienates others, and acts in a completely unscrupulous manner.
* FormerlyFit: Subverted in Season 2, where he was less fit because he wasn't taking care of himself and had lost weight and muscle tone. Defied in Season 3, where his weight gain is seen as an improvement to his health since he's back to the competent fighting form he had in Season 1 even if he's not as sculpted as before.
* GoodIsNotNice: He's a hero, but is a jerk to his mentor, his teammates, and ''even'' the people he's rescuing. Averted in Season 3 where he's become a legit NiceGuy.
* GoodParents: Knowing he had a daughter who needed him, Roy immediately got his act together and eventually retired to be a dad. Season 3 shows this in full force, as Will now owns and runs a successful private security company and prioritizes getting home in time to have dinner with Lian. Considering Jade left them, he's probably working harder to make up for her absence and give Lian enough love for two parents.
* GutturalGrowler: Goes into this during his addiction problem in "Salvage". It also makes him sound like [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Alucard]].
* HeroicBSOD: After finding out he was both TheMole and a clone of the original Speedy. It lasts a good five years.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: After finding out he was a clone. Specifically shown in "Salvage" of how much he comes to hate himself. He's gotten over it after making his own identity as Will Harper.
* HonoraryTrueCompanion: He's TrueCompanions with the Team's three founders and was part of the Team for about two weeks in-series time.
* HumblePie: It's one thing to find out you're a clone. It's another to find out that the mole you've been looking for all this time is [[TomatoInTheMirror YOU]].
* TheGadfly: He enjoys playing up his dad humor to mess with people, such as cheerfully telling Dick, Roy and Jim to buckle up in his car and then unnecessarily revealing his usual crew are all suffering from "Explosive diarrhea." When Roy complains that's TooMuchInformation, Will happily snarks they ''did'' ask him why he needed help. Earlier, he messes with Dick by pretending to check his schedule to see if he'll have time to help with his mission, to which Dick flatly responds he knows Will's doing it on purpose.
* IneffectualLoner: He sets himself apart from the rest of the Team, but manages to do well fighting alongside them nonetheless.
* InsistentTerminology: He's no longer "Roy", but "Will". Though he didn't seem particularly angry when Dick mistakenly called him his old name out of habit, he did get some snarky revenge afterwards.
-->'''Dick:''' Hey, Roy! I mean, Will... Will! Sorry, still not used to it.
-->'''Will:''' Well, Richard... I mean, Dick, who are you here to recruit this time?
* ItsAllAboutMe: Shows a lot of this into the first season, but grows out of it in the second season.
* IWillFindYou: Non-romantic version. He spent most of the five-year time skip searching for the original Roy Harper, [[{{Determinator}} even as everyone else gave up.]]
* IWillWaitForYou: Come Season 3 Cheshire has essentially walked out on him and Lian because she believes she's no good for them and will always be a villain first and foremost. Will clearly doesn't believe that and is shown to still love Jade and wants her to come home without trying to force her to do so.
* {{Jerkass}}: Often treats his friends and random bystanders like a jerk.
* JerkassBall: In "Insecurity", he is especially nasty to Artemis, Superboy and Miss Martian. This turned out to have been part of his subconscious Cadmus programming to get suspicion off him as the true mole while causing discord within the team.
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** In "Independence Day", Roy was right in calling out the mentors for promising their proteges to become full members of the Justice League, only to ''not'' take them to the actual headquarters and keep the truth of that from them.
** Also, while he's kind of an asshole to his old teammates in Season Two as he desperately hunts for the real Roy Harper, he is dismissive towards Wally in particular, asking why he's even present, which does hold some merit considering that Wally basically gave up being a superhero because...he wanted to focus on college and being Artemis's boyfriend. This really seems like a waste of talent, especially given Wally wanted to be Flash's sidekick so much that he deliberately recreated a very dangerous experiment of his, just so he could have superpowers too and Artemis is still doing hero work despite being in the exact same situation [[BadassNormal and she doesn't even have powers like he does.]]
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite his {{jerkass}} nature, he does genuinely care about his friends and secretly looks out for them. In "Performance" for instance, he shows real concern for Robin when he finds out the hero's become ill. Come Season 3, the "Heart Of Gold" aspect's been magnified so much "Jerk" doesn't apply to him anymore.
* KarmicJackpot: After being dealt a raw hand since he was created, from being born as a replacement to the original Roy Harper, being programmed into acting like an uptight asshole while used as a brainwashed stooge against his will, from running himself ragged to the point of wasting away into a shaggy mess, come Season 3 Will's ''finally'' gained a semblance of happiness. Even though Cheshire left him, Will's still taking better care of himself and Lian, is the proud owner of a successful business and earning his own money enough to afford his own house, is now on better terms with his friends than he ever was before, and has moved his life into a direction ''he'' wants instead of what others wanted for him.
* ManchurianAgent: For the Light, as he was made to infiltrate and dismantle the Justice League.
* MeaningfulName: "Roy" is Gaelic and English for "red" which is [[RedIsHeroic part of his attire as a hero]].
* MeaningfulRename:
** Changes his original name from Speedy to Red Arrow, signifying his path from sidekick to solo.
** Come ''Outsiders'', he goes by Will (from Roy's middle name, William) to differentiate himself from the original.
* NiceGuy: In Season 3, there’s nothing left of the uptight jerk he was in the past two seasons. Instead he’s a goofy, friendly dad.
* MiddleNameBasis: By the third season, he prefers to go by Will, which is his middle name of William. Understandable considering his issues of being the clone of the original Roy and wanting to be his own person.
* OlderAndWiser: He shows this in "Private Security" when ''he'' is the one who recognizes Dick is looking for Wally West substitute and needs to deal with the Markovian kids. Given Dick attended Will's intervention in Season 2, it shows how far he's grown as a person. It's a bit PlayedForLaughs when Will invokes this to which Dick responds, as a clone, Will isn't that old.
-->'''Will''': Hey, I'm older than Jim.
-->'''Jim''': But I'm prettier!
* OutOfFocus: He basically vanishes from the plot in Season 2 after rescuing the original Roy Harper. In Season 3 he was given at least one significant appearance per weekly episode drop, including his ADayInTheLimelight episode "Private Security." He slips back into this trope in the second half of the season, especially after Tara and Violet move out of the house.
* PapaWolf: Roy gets out of his funk in season 2 after realizing he has a daughter who needs him.
* PrimaryColorChampion: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. As Speedy, he wore a yellow sixteenth century-style hat complete with feather, yellow gloves, boots, belt and a red suit. And he was actually a clone of Roy Harper and was sent to become a mole for the Light.
* PutOnABus: In season 2, after finding the real Roy Harper, clone!Roy disappears from the series entirely besides a cameo at the finale.
* RageAgainstTheMentor: Goes on a tirade against Green Arrow and {{Rage Quit}}s in the very first episode of the show for being put on the "sidekick team", then spends much of season 1 operating alone as Red Arrow to prove to Ollie he's just as good. Inverted 5 years later in "Satisfaction", where after Ollie rages against himself for failing all his proteges, Roy ''reassures'' him that, despite their differences, he's always considered Ollie a good man.
* RageQuit: In the very first episode. Because of his outrage at being placed in "the Junior Justice League," he quits being Speedy.
* RedIsHeroic: He has red hair and a hero. His first superhero outfit was completely red, except the yellow hat; his second costume is both red and black.
* RetiredBadass: By ''Outsiders'', Will has retired from being a superhero altogether to raise his daughter. "Private Security" shows he definitely still has his "Badass" traits and has no problem suiting up again and helping his former teammates if asked or needed.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: In episode one, he defiantly declares himself to not be part of the Team.
* SecretKeeper: Knew Artemis wasn't Green Arrow's niece from the start, but only confronts Artemis about it when they're alone, and leaves it to her to tell her friends the truth.
* SettleForSibling: In season 3, after being abandoned by Jade, Will develops mutual attraction with her sister Artemis. [[spoiler:Subverted by the end of the season as they decide to remain friends]].
* SidekickGraduationsStick: Within the first six episodes, Roy changes his hero identity from Speedy to Red Arrow.
* SixthRanger: An older peer of the team who sometimes works with them but tries to be independent. His designation is also B06.
* SleevesAreForWimps: Doesn't wear any sleeves in his "Red Arrow" attire.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Red Arrow is serious, aloof and a loner who refuses to join the team, but he still cares about his friends.
* TomatoInTheMirror: UpToEleven. "I... I was the mole?" He's a clone of Roy Harper who replaced the original mere months after Roy became Green Arrow's sidekick, which means he was Speedy for ''years'', even longer than the ''original'' Speedy!
* TookALevelInCheerfulness: Seasons 1 and 2 Roy was a surly, generally unpleasant person who did care about his friends and was capable of being happy but rarely, if ever, smiled. Season 3 Will makes jokes and bad puns like the dad he is, likes to playfully mess with his friends, and can get easily flustered and embarrassed in certain situations without getting pissed off. In fact, come "Home Fires" and it's probably the first time he's ever let out a genuinely content laugh while having fun with Lian and the other kids.
* TookALevelInKindness:
** After recovering the original Speedy in Season 2 there is almost nothing of the old angry and resentful Roy, even giving Ollie a YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre speech. By ''Outsiders'', he's completely mellowed out and is a retired hero taking care of his kid and spending time with his sister-in-law Artemis (keep in mind that they used to dislike each other).
** His sense of humor and mellowness is more inline with his characterization from the comics.
* TraumaCongaLine: Finds out he was TheMole and [[CloningBlues a clone]], gets [[TheChase hunted like an animal]] by BrainwashedAndCrazy Leaguers, and then spends the next 5 years in a HeroicBSOD [[CassandraTruth while all his friends tell him he's gone crazy]].
* WeightWoe:
** When he first appears after the TimeSkip in the second season, his muscular frame appears somewhat malnourished as a result of neglecting his health due to his relentless hunt for the original Roy Harper. By the third season, he's regained his musculature but has also gained some pounds with a noticeable belly. This serves to highlight he's in a better place physically, mentally, and emotionally.
*** Played with in the audio episode "The Prize" where Will receives teasing for his dad bod, with Will noting he somehow gained weight despite being one of Cadmus's genetically modified clones. Captain Boomerang even dismissively calls Will "Captain Beer Belly," much to Will's frustration (and he still manages to take Boomerang down with one punch).
* YoungerThanHeLooks: He's 3, 8 by the TimeSkip, and has the physique of an 18-year-old.
* YouthfulFreckles: {{Averted|Trope}}. Notable that he's one of the few redheads without them, even in his younger days.

!!!'''Debut: Episode 34 ("Satisfaction")

The second Blue Beetle. His death in a lab explosion indirectly led to Jaime finding the Scarab and becoming his successor.
----
* BadassBookworm: Kord was a brilliant inventor.
* BadassNormal: He never used the Scarab himself, just based his hero persona on it.
* BlueIsHeroic: True to his name, Blue Beetle wore blue. His pants and shirt were of a light blue color, with darker blue trunks. The top section of his shirt was adorned with a dark blue cutout that resembled bug's legs. He wore dark blue gloves and boots, and a belt with a golden buckle. To hide his face, he wore a dark blue cowl with yellow goggles.
* ColorCharacter: '''Blue''' Beetle.
* DyingMomentOfAwesome: Going head to head against both Deathstroke and Sportsmaster at the same time in order to keep the Light from getting the Scarab forever cements him as an incredible badass. Taking into account the fact that Jaime ended up getting it, this also means that the explosion which claimed his life probably wasn't deliberate on the part of the villains.
* GadgeteerGenius: Batgirl's dialogue in "Intervention" and everyone's initial belief that the Scarab was something he created implies that he was this.
* LegacyCharacter: The second ComicBook/BlueBeetle.
* NiceGuy: He was considered a good man.
* PosthumousCharacter: He died during the TimeSkip between seasons 1 and 2, making him this in relation to season 2 (he would have been alive during season 1, but he never appeared).
* SonicStunner: Apparently his weapon of choice, no doubt inspired by the Scarab armor's version.

Black Lightning, as his name would suggest, is a metahuman with powers over electricity, and Static's mentor. Initially a member of the Justice League, he eventually leaves to join the Nightwing's Team and seek redemption following his accidental murder of a young girl.
----
* TenMinuteRetirement: Leaves the Justice League to retire from superheroism altogether because of his guilt, but is then convinced by Nightwing to join his team for a one-off mission, and ultimately stays afterward. [[spoiler:Does it again at the end of the season. He becomes enraged and quit after finding out about the "Anti-Light" scheme, but later exposes Lex Luthor's deception from the rest of the world, with the help of Oracle and Cyborg]].
* AccidentalMurder: He kills a monster that he didn't know was actually a 14-year-old trafficked metahuman, to his [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone horror]].
* AdultFear: His guilt over killing a young girl is even worse when you consider he has two daughters himself.
* AmicableExes: With Lynn, as she allows him to see their daughters during the night and then they engage in a non-argumentative discussion.
* ArtEvolution: Originally he looked like his classic comic design, but in "Outsiders" it's been heavily reworked to resemble his [[Series/BlackLightning2018 concurrent live-action portrayal]].
* AscendedExtra: In his debut season, he only had minor appearances in five episodes with only one speaking role at the end. In ''Outsiders'', he's one of the main cast members as a founder of the team.
* TheAtoner: He leaves the Justice League to join Nightwing's Team over the guilt of accidentally killing one of the trafficked meta-human children.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: [[spoiler:He manages to figure out that Batman and some of the other heroes were having a secret coup to combat the light by picking up the pieces from past events, from Batman and the rest of the League's resignation to spotting a drone after being freed from Granny Goodness' grasp and rips into them apart with a long WhatTheHellHero speech.]]
* BaldOfAwesome: No hair? Check. A superhero who can generate amazing black lightning? Double check. He grows his hair out in Season 3 and develops a BadassBeard to boot.
* BigBrotherMentor: Offers himself as one to Static, should the younger hero need one.
* ColorCharacter: '''Black''' Lightning.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: His ''Outsiders'' look is obviously inspired by Creator/CressWilliams's portrayal of Black Lighting from the [[Series/BlackLightning2018 live-action show]] airing concurrently.
* CoolShades: To hide and/or protect his eyes, he wears small goggles with yellow lenses.
* DarkIsNotEvil: He wears a black and blue unitard with lightning motifs, blue sleeves, black pants, and black shoes.
* DramaPreservingHandicap: His [[PowerIncontinence inability to generate electricity]] prevents him from being able to help out more in combat, and makes Nightwing's Team's first mission much more difficult than it would've been had he been at his A-game.
* ElectricBlackGuy: The TropeMaker.
* TheHeart: For Nightwing's squad, he's always the one most willing to object to the morally ambiguous choices they sometimes face. [[spoiler:It's for this reason that Nightwing nominates him to be the new leader of the Justice League at the end of the season]].
* GlassCannon: For all the power his special lightning has, Black Lightning himself is still physically that of a human and thus is vulnerable to harm should he be hit.
* IAmNotLeftHanded: He regulates his lightning to knock his foes out, but he can amp it up considerably when needed. When Desolation boasts that his ordinary lightning blasts can't hurt her, he thanks her for the advice and hits her with enough power to knock her out on the spot.
* InterspeciesRomance: He (a metahuman) with Lynn and Helga (both humans). The former was his ex-wife and the latter became his love interest in season 3.
* MeaningfulName: Not only is he of African descent and have electrical powers, but he generates literal black lightning.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Black Lightning is immediately struck with guilt when he learns he just killed a 14-year-old girl who was trafficked and forcibly turned into a monster. It's what starts his quest for redemption by leaving the Justice League and joining Nightwing's Team.
* PapaWolf: He is very protective of children, having two young daughters himself. He quit the League over the guilt of accidentally killing a little girl, is devastated when eight metahuman children are teleported away before they can be rescued, and joins Nightwing's Team to fight back against metahuman child trafficking.
* PsychosomaticSuperpowerOutage: Due to his feelings of guilt, his ability to generate electricity severely diminishes by the time he joins Nightwing's Team. He gets it back when he sees Halo (supposedly) dead.
* RankUp: [[spoiler:Becomes the new leader of the Justice League at the end of season 3]].
* ShockAndAwe: With a distinctive black coloration. It's got some other unusual properties to it, since Livewire wasn't able to absorb it.
* TeamDad: He's the oldest member of Nightwing's Team and acts as a mentor of sorts to some of the younger members (particularly the newest recruits like Geo-Force, Halo, and Forager) when they're not on missions.
* WhatTheHellHero: Delivers a long and vicious speech to Batman, Nightwing, and the rest of the "anti-Light" conspiracy upon realizing they're secretly working together. He's absolutely enraged that they're sinking to the Light's level and lying about it, and tears them a new one upon realizing mid-speech that they've also been faking incidents for the Outsiders to tackle.
* WillfullyWeak: Black Lightning is one of Nightwing's Team's biggest heavy hitters, and his special brand of electricity could vaporize most of his enemies with ease. However, his refusal to kill means he holds back a great deal. When he's faced against Devastation, who boasts that she can withstand his electricity, he points just how lucky she is for that [[TheGlovesComeOff before electrocuting her in a single blast]]. He's strong enough to pin down even [[spoiler:''Metron'', a New God]].
* WouldntHurtAChild: He draws the line at kids getting hurt or worse, killed. One can imagine his horror when ''he'' ended up accidentally killing one.

Earth's third Green Lantern. When the League considers an expansion in "Agendas", the Flash puts his name forward - something Hal and John are both ''very'' opposed to.
----
* AlliterativeName: '''G'''uy '''G'''ardner.
* BigDamnHeroes: Saves a falling bus of children when Green Arrow, Red Arrow, and Black Canary all fail to stop it from falling.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He's such an annoying, pretentious jerk that you kinda wonder if the ring didn't make a mistake when it picked him to be a Green Lantern. It didn't, and Guy ''will'' unleash all the whoopass when necessary.
* EyelidPullTaunt: After the League left a Thanagarian Nth Metal refinery in "Influence", Guy pulled this towards Talak with the other members not happy.
* FingerlessGloves: He wears black fingerless gloves.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Guy's such an immature, obnoxious showboat, you'd be hard pressed to find a Leaguer who likes having him on the team.
* HiddenDepths: Despite his obnoxiousness and immaturity, he's shown to have the strongest willpower of the three Lanterns, not even flinching when [[spoiler:Granny unleashes the Ghost Dimension, causing incalculable pain to all that are caught in it]].
* ImaginationBasedSuperpower: Being a Green Lantern, his ring can create anything he can think of.
* {{Irony}}: Flash is the one who insists on inducting him on the League, but in the comics, he hated Gardner so much that he actually hoped that he ''died'' once.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Implied. Judging by Hal’s and John’s NoJustNoReaction at the idea of letting Guy join the League and Cassie’s own exclamation that he doesn’t like anyone one could reasonably say that he’s a bit difficult in terms of personality. However, Guy is a hero first, as seen when he saves a bus full of innocents. Nightwing also says that Guy is actually fond of Jaime Reyes in his own way (which is quite possibly a MythologyGag to the fact Guy was rather fond of Jaime in the comics as well), which is a telling thing for Cassie.
* {{Manchild}}: Quite possibly the only Leaguer who's as childish, if not ''even more'' than Captain Marvel.
* NoJustNoReaction: How Hal and John react to the proposal of adding Guy to the League, though they eventually add him to the League anyway. [[TheFriendNobodyLikes Quite a few Leaguers come to regret it]].
* ShamelessFanserviceGuy: You have to be in order to sing an ode to your own buttocks. Right in front of your teammates' vehicle, no less.
* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Guy has short red hair and green eyes.
* SleevesAreForWimps: He wears black pants and a black sleeveless shirt with a green front. He's noticeably the only Green Lantern whose uniform is not a full bodysuit.

Magician and teenage daughter of Giovanni Zatara. She joins the team in their search for Red Tornado. Zatanna later ends up joining the team in full after her father becomes the latest host of Doctor Fate. [[LoveAtFirstSight Robin takes]] [[ShipTease an immediate liking to her]].

Five years later, Zatanna has become a full-fledged member of the Justice League.
----
* AlliterativeName: '''Z'''atanna '''Z'''atara.
* AmicableExes: With Nightwing after the time skip. Occasionally implied to still be FriendsWithBenefits with him, given their rather flirtatious interactions.
* AttackReflector: In "Cornered", she uses a spell that reflects Despero's DeadlyGaze back at him.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: In "Misplaced", she wishes her [[OverprotectiveDad father]], Zatara, would give her some space. By the end of the episode, she gets what she wants, in the absolute ''worst'' way possible.
* BirdsOfAFeather: With Robin I, as they both are fond of BuffySpeak.
* BlackMagicianGirl: She's a spunky young girl who uses her magic to attack. Post-TimeSkip, she's more of a LadyOfBlackMagic, having grown much more competent with her magic and generally more mature in the five years between seasons.
* BoundAndGagged: In "Secrets" [[https://i.imgur.com/PWZNTAs.png Zatanna is bound and gagged by Harm]].
* BreakTheCutie: Zatanna suffered this in "Misplaced" after her father had became a permanent host for Dr. Fate.
* BuffySpeak: It requires closed captions to see what she's saying when casting a spell, and most of them are this Trope. For example: "Etativel taht ssorg gniht."
* CharacterFocus: Shares the spotlight with Artemis in "Secrets".
* CombatStilettos: Averted in this incarnation of the character. She wears square-heeled boots which are practical enough for battle. Lampshaded in "Secrets" when she magically changes them into flat sole boots during a chase scene.
--> '''Zatanna''': Okay, these boots? Adorable, but for a chase sequence? ''Lacticarp raewtoof won!'' (Practical footwear now!)
* CostumeEvolution: Her outfit remains basically the same when she's older, but now [[FanservicePack shows cleavage]].
* CuteWitch: Even wears a "traditional" witch costume for Halloween.
* DeadpanSnarker: A more subtle variant compared to Artemis and the boys.
* DemotedToExtra: In Season 2, courtesy of graduating from the team in favor of the Justice League. That being said, she still plays a major role in a few episodes, notably in "Misplaced" and "Intervention".
* DeusExitMachina: In "Cornered" Despero tries to do this trope by paralyzing her with his DeadlyGaze as soon as he sees her. It was a good idea too; as soon as Miss Martian wakes her up, Zatanna possesses Mal Duncan in about half a second and then renders Despero, who had spent the entire episode effortlessly [[CurbStompBattle Curb Stomping]] Captain Marvel and Superboy, helpless with one spell.
* ElementalPowers: As part of her VancianMagic. She can employ any element she likes, be it [[AnIcePerson ice]], [[MakingASplash water]] or [[PlayingWithFire fire]].
* {{Flight}}: Adds this ability to her magical portfolio in Season 2. She can either fly under her own power or use InstantRunes as makeshift levitating platforms, the latter being a technique she inherited from her father.
* FriendsWithBenefits: Implied with Nightwing, given the sensual manner she kisses him on his birthday.
* FunctionalMagic: She got her magicking from her father. It's Rule Magic, that requires the spells to be said backwards.
* GlassCannon: Zatanna can usually render a target helpless in half a second if she can cast a spell before they can stop her. Keyword being "if", since magic is her only source of both offense and defense, and she's pretty much helpless in a physical fight.
* HotWitch: Her outfit for season 2 seems hell bent on emphasizing the fact, especially with its much lower neck line.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: As of Season 2, she is much more graceful, mature, and her spells have become more powerful.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Plays a pivotal role in Artemis infiltrating the Light as Tigress, courtesy of making the glamour charm that masks her appearance. Despite this, she isn't let in on the larger plan until much later, with Nightwing keeping her in the dark regarding the charm's true purpose.
* MsFanservice: In Season 2, when her hero outfit displays her buxom chest.
* MundaneUtility: Seems to know a lot of spells for quickly altering her own or others' clothing.
* PluckyGirl: Zatanna doesn't give up, ever. Not even her father suffering a DeathOfPersonality due to taking on Doctor Fate's identity keeps her down for long.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: She has black hair, pale skin, and is considered beautiful.
* RealNameAsAnAlias: "Zatanna" is both her real name and her superhero codename.
* ShoutOutToShakespeare: Her go-to spell for creating bursts of fire is [[Theatre/{{Macbeth}} "Erif nrub, nordluac elbbub!"]].
* SidekickGraduationsStick: She's left the team and has become a member of the Justice League in-between seasons.
* SixthRanger: Though initially a GuestStarPartyMember in "Humanity" and "Secrets", she becomes this at the end of "Misplaced".
* SquishyWizard: Even more so than Miss Martian, as she has to actually speak all of her spells, doesn't have stealth or mobility, and is apparently the shortest on the team.
* TookALevelInBadass: Not really accustomed to being a superhero when she first joins the team, and generally tends to play a support role in battle, but over the course of the season she steadily grows more and more competent and creative in the use of her magic. Come Season 2, she's become even ''more'' powerful, outclassing even most of her fellow Justice League members.
* TownGirls: The Neither to Miss Martian's Femme and Artemis's Butch.
* TruerToTheText: Originally, Zatanna was a teenager when she started out, with the DCAU starting the trend of her being around the same age was the rest of the League, including being RetCanon to the comics. Here, she starts out as a teenager like her original counterpart.
* VancianMagic: She has to memorize each spell individually and casting each spell exhausts her. The only thing non-Vancian is that she doesn't forget the spells after she casts them.
* WarriorTherapist: To Artemis in "Secrets", though Artemis refuses to heed her advice concerning bad secrets.
* WeakButSkilled: In the beginning, as she's an inexperienced magician but her spells really help out the team in battle.
* YoungerAndHipper: Zatanna in the modern-day comics is about the same age as Bruce Wayne; the two having been {{Retconned}} into being ChildhoodFriends (which had originated from the DCAU), as well as her being an occasional LoveInterest for him. This version of her is made a contemporary of Dick Grayson instead, making her almost two decades younger than Bruce in this series, as well as shifting her status as a friend and occasional LoveInterest to Dick as well. However, it's been brought up by Creator/GregWeisman that Zatanna was originally introduced into the comics as a teenager in the '60s, when Dick Grayson was still a teenager, too. Zatanna was simply allowed to "grow up" faster than Dick, due to becoming the universe's de facto magician after her father died, while Dick must always be younger than Batman. He also noted that there are very few cases of a superhero legacy between a parent and child, and that by not taking advantage of Giovanni and Zatanna Zatara's relationship, the show would have lost something.

Sidekick of ComicBook/{{Icon}}. She and Icon debuted in an earlier episode dealing with the Injustice League's monster plants, along with other superheroes around the world. They intermittently appeared in later episodes, leading to Icon's induction into the Justice League and Rocket joining the Team.

Five years later, Rocket has become a full-fledged member of the Justice League.
----
* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: By ''Outsiders'', she's an ActionMom at the age of 22.
* ActionMom: As of Season 3, she has a son and is still a member of the League.
* AmicableExes: With Nightwing after the time skip.
* AscendedFangirl: In "Usual Suspects" she says that sidekicks like Aqualad, Kid Flash and Robin were her inspiration. And now, she is one of their teammates and, at one point, dated Robin.
* AudienceSurrogate: {{Justified|Trope}} since she was the newbie in the last parts of season one.
* BabiesEverAfter: The tie-in comics for the TimeSkip reveals that at some point she had a son.
* BarrierWarrior: She can create force fields. They're pretty powerful, too considering they can hold a mind-controlled ''Wonder Woman''.
* ChekhovsGunman: She appeared in the background of a few episodes before Icon's induction into the League and her joining the Team.
* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: Rocket has no innate powers but can draw upon an alien belt for flight and energy barriers.
* DeadpanSnarker: She's snarky even in the heat of battle.
* DemotedToExtra: In Season 2, her screen-time is even less.
* EnergyAbsorption: Her barriers only get stronger when kinetic energy is applied. She demonstrates and explains this when she traps Wonder Woman in one.
* EleventhHourRanger: Joins the team in the second-to-last episode of the first season. By the time the [[TimeSkip second season starts]], she's already joined the Justice League.
* {{Flight}}: Part of her powerset.
* HappilyMarried: Or engaged. Even has a bridal shower in "Satisfaction".
* IsItAlwaysLikeThis: Asked pretty much word-for-word when she joins the Team.
--> '''Rocket:''' It ''is'' always like this!
--> '''Zatanna:''' Told ya.
* KineticWeaponsAreJustBetter: Uses her force fields as projectiles sometimes.
* SassyBlackWoman: A milder example than most people who fall under the trope, but she still fits the bill.
* SidekickGraduationsStick: Joined the Justice League as a superhero in her own right in-between seasons.
* WeaksauceWeakness: Maintaining a force bubble around someone else, whether to protect them or trap them, leaves her more or less a sitting duck.

!!!'''Debut:''' Episode 01 ("Independence Day")
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KharyPayton
->''"We stand ready."''

Aqualad is an Atlantean who, through his own skills with water manipulation and focus, earned the right to take on the role of junior partner of Justice League member Aquaman. Although somewhat hesitant in regards to listening to Speedy's rant about them needing to branch out, he soon begins to discover that it may actually be for the better. Somewhat stoic, he soon becomes the team's voice of reason when it comes to dealing with obstacles, whether they be friend or foe.

During the five-year gap between seasons Kaldur joins his father, Black Manta, following the death of Tula during a mission after joining the Team as Aquagirl. Tula's death, along the revelation that Aquaman had kept the identity of his biological father from him, apparently drives Aqualad to betray the Team and become Black Manta II.

By ''Outsiders'', Kaldur has succeeded Orin's place as Aquaman and has joined the Justice League.
----
* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: As a result of living under water all his life, he's developed a resistance to jellyfish venom.
* AffirmativeActionLegacy: Becomes the new Aquaman in ''Outsiders'', succeeding King Orin.
* AmbiguouslyGay: [[https://www.bleedingcool.com/2013/08/16/could-we-have-had-a-gay-aqualad/ Is not straight according]] to WordOfGod, and this is actually followed through in the official DC comics continuity. Rocket kissed him on New Year's and WordOfGod is that they dated a bit afterward. Actually has enough HomoeroticSubtext to leave fans speculating for a while; it's not clear if he is gay and Tula [[IfItsYouItsOkay was an exception]] or if he's attracted to [[AmbiguouslyBi both men and women]]. [[spoiler:As of season 3 he has a boyfriend, and WordOfGod has confirmed him as bisexual or polysexual]].
* AnimalMotifs: He has eel tattoos on his arms, can generate [[PsychoElectricEel electricity]], and can conjure a giant eel made of water with his powers.
* AntiHero: In season 1 he's willing to hide from his friends there's a possible [[TheMole Mole]] on the team to keep them from turning on each other. In season 2 he's willing to put both his mentor and his friends in danger, and actively attack them, to protect his [[FakeDefector cover]].
* ApparentlyHumanMerfolk: Looks similar to a human being but hides his Atlantean traits when he is in public.
* TheApprentice: In "Downtime" it was shown that Aquaman was impressed with Kaldur and his friend Garth's bravery and offered them both the role of his apprentice. Garth refused, while Kaldur accepted and became Aqualad.
* ArchnemesisDad: Black Manta in season 1, though Kaldur doesn't know it at the time. Double subverted in season 2
* BadassArmFold: Best shown in the episode [[http://www.ksitetv.com/wp-content/gallery/secrets/345_678b084.jpg "Secrets."]].
* BadassInCharge: He's the official leader of the team.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Aqualad is often very caring and reasonable, but is terrifying when pushed the wrong way.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Primarily to Robin. When Black Canary points out that he's just as much a logical choice for leader, Kaldur gets a haunted look and says "But he is so young."
* BigBrotherMentor: To Robin and arguably, Superboy. Lampshaded by Miss Martian in "Infiltrator".
* TheBlank: During his BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind in "The Fix", but he gets his face back in the next scene thanks to Artemis telling him YouAreNotAlone.
* BreakTheBadass: Temporarily in "Failsafe".
* BrokenPedestal: Lagoon Boy used to idolize him.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: In season one, he's the second strongest member after Superboy... but he's whole a lot nicer than Superboy is.
* TheCameo: Shows up in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' to show up the Titans. While Superboy and Miss Martian also appear, Kaldur is the only one who speaks, likely because his voice actor, Khary Payton, also plays Titans regular Cyborg.
* CanonForeigner: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. He was made for the show, but DC liked him so much he was [[EarlyBirdCameo adapted to the comics before the show even aired,]] though there's very little similarity between the two of them, beyond their costume, power set, identity of biological father, and ethnicity. He was adapted into the Brightest Day and Teen Titans books, but he's since been wiped out of existence by the New 52 reboot-- finally reappearing more than two years later in ''Comicbook/TeenTitansRebirth''. He was, however, ported to the universes of ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueTheFlashpointParadox'' and ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo''.
* TheCaptain: Batman has been known to refer to "You and your team" when talking to Aqualad; in addition, he reports directly to Batman after the team completes missions. He becomes [[TheDragon a villainous example]] after his FaceHeelTurn. But see FakeDefector.
* TheChainsOfCommanding: Mentioned in "Drop Zone" and "Downtime" and fully explained in "Disordered".
* CharacterDevelopment: He first starts out as submissive in the first few episodes and later emerges as TheLeader of the RagtagBunchOfMisfits. He then goes on to become a [[TheMole mole]] in his villainous father's organization.
** And now he's the new Aquaman and the leader of the Justice League.
* ChildSoldiers: WordOfGod is, it's required for Atlanteans to enlist in military training until the age of 16.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: He had a longtime crush on his friend Tula. Unfortunately for him, she began a relationship with his best friend Garth during the time he was away.
* ConflictingLoyalty: In "Downtime" between Atlantis and the surface world.
* DarkIsNotEvil: His "evil" outfit in season 2 certainly makes him ''look'' more evil.
* DarkSkinnedBlond: And issue 14 of the tie in comics show that [[http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1ck67dMhA1qm0gd4o1_500.png he gets it from his mom]] (who amusingly enough [[CelebrityResemblance kind of looks like]] Music/{{Beyonce}}).
* DeadpanSnarker: His usual stoicism breaks at times to remind us he's still a teenager.
-->'''Kaldur:''' [[LeeroyJenkins Captain [Marvel], wait!]] ''(to himself)'' [[ShrugTake Hey, "Speed of Mercury".]]
* DefusingTheTykebomb: Early in season one he calms Superboy down and helps adjust to the world until Superboy gets with Miss Martian. In addition, its been stated by WordOfGod that Superboy is closest to Aqualad out of all of males in season 1.
* TheDragon: To Black Manta in Season 2. He turns out to be a DragonWithAnAgenda: He's still a good guy, and just using his father to get closer to the Light and their new partner.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: He's always walking around barefoot due to having webbed feet.
* DoggedNiceGuy: Towards Tula in "Downtime" until he got over it at the end of the episode
* DualWielding: He often solidifies water into two weapons he uses to attack.
* ElementalBaggage: Aqualad cannot create the water he telekinetically manipulates, it either comes from the pack on his back or a standing supply near by.
* EmotionsVsStoicism: He tends to stay on the stoic side. Has since went to the emotional side since his FaceHeelTurn. Only not, since he's a FakeDefector
* EvilCostumeSwitch: After joining his father and becoming Black Manta II, complete with a [[GoodHairEvilHair creepier haircut]].
* EvilFormerFriend: Subverted. It's all part of the plan.
* {{Expy}}: According to [[WordOfGod creator Greg Weisman]], Kaldur's design was inspired by ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings''' elves.
* EyeBeams: As Black Manta II.
* FaceHeelTurn: In Season 2, but it turns out he's a FakeDefector.
* FallenHero: In Season 2, but later subverted.
* FantasticRacism: Aqualad and other Atlanteans with non-human traits face discrimination from the Purifiers.
* FightsLikeANormal: Training with the team during season one.
* FreudianExcuse: His first love Tula was killed as a direct result of becoming involved with the Team, and he's been trying to hurt his own father for years because of the lies of a man whom he called both his king and his friend. This turns out to be a subversion; he's a FakeDefector.
* GuileHero: This and his levelheadedness is why he was chosen to be leader in the first season. He was also the one who started the plan to infiltrate the villains by pretending to be evil to get close to his father. Together only he, Wally, Artemis, Dick know of this ruse.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: So far: Aqualad's good, but then he's bad, then he's still good, then he might just be pretending to be good, then he actually is good. He was, however, GoodAllAlong.
* HalfHumanHybrid: His father is the human Black Manta, while his mother is an Atlantean.
* HeartbrokenBadass: After Tula chooses Garth over him. After her death in-between seasons, it's stated to be the catalyst for his (fake) FaceHeelTurn.
* HeroesWantRedheads: He had fallen in love with Tula, but unfortunately for him, she and Garth were already together (all three had been close friends).
* HeroicBastard: The result of a human/Atlantean non-marriage union.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: He doesn't believe in his leadership abilities until "Alpha Male". Made worse in "Failsafe", where he believes himself to be unfit to lead the team.
* HeroicSacrifice: Sacrifices himself in "Failsafe" to save Martian Manhunter, who eventually turns out to be the key to freeing everyone from the UnwinnableTrainingSimulation they're trapped in.
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Had to make several compromising choices undercover as Black Manta's henchman.
* IShouldHaveBeenBetter: He wishes he'd acted more like a leader than a soldier during "Failsafe".
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Wishes Tula and Garth the best together, as he wants Tula to be happy.
* ImportantHaircut: He has a normal haircut in season 1, but he gets a shorter hair style in season 2.
* ImpossiblyCoolWeapon: He wields a pair of waterbearers that he can use to augment his powers and and create a variety of water weapons.
* InASingleBound: He does this a few times in the episodes like "Humanity". Although he doesn't jump as high and does not do it as much as Superboy has.
* JackOfAllStats: Definitely the most well-rounded member of the original Team. He's not as fast as [[FragileSpeedster Kid Flash]], as strong as [[LightningBruiser Superboy]] or as super-powered as [[SquishyWizard Miss Martian]], and he doesn't pack as many cool gadgets as [[BadassNormal Robin]] or [[ArcherArchetype Artemis]], but he's definitely more versatile than any of them. He's adept at strategy and hand-to-hand combat, he's got magic training, and his waterbearers can shape-shift into any weapon he needs. He's even more bruising after the TimeSkip, now that he's got magic, super strength and a weaponized power suit with missiles and freaking eyebeams.
* KickTheDog: Kills Artemis in "Depths". Soon subverted when it turns out they were just [[FakingTheDead faking her death]].
* KidHero: He is 16 years old in the first season.
* KubrickStare: He delivers a ''damn'' creepy look when he rises out of the water in "Depths".
* TheLeader: Type Levelheaded. The position is made official in "Drop Zone" and reaffirmed at the end of "Alpha Male".
** [[PlayingWithATrope Played With]] in "Disordered"; after his actions in "Failsafe", he doesn't believe himself to be an effective leader, yet he continues to be one since he doesn't want to burden Robin with the role.
** No longer true as of Season 2. However, his leadership qualities are what makes him a dangerous villain, and it's notable that he makes sure [[NoOneGetsLeftBehind all of his mooks have time to escape]].
** After rejoining the team after completing his mission, Nightwing immediately defers leadership back to Kaldur.
* LegacyCharacter: As Black Manta II, and later, Aquaman.
* LickedByTheDog: In "Darkest", Sphere rolls right up to him and doesn't even sound the alarm after he gives her a pet, like in old times. This makes him feel even more guilty about blowing up Mount Justice in order to secure his cover.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Aquaman, his parents, and Black Manta all know that Black Manta is his biological father, something Kaldur himself is not aware of until ''Legacy''.
* LoveHurts: Kaldur's first love Tula wound up falling for his best friend, Garth. Making matters worse, she later died, and Kaldur's mindscape in ''Invasion'' makes it clear that he still has feelings for her. By ''Outsiders'', however, he's managed to move on and found love with Wynnde.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: Subverted, as he's a FakeDefector.
* LoveTriangle: In one between him, his crush Tula and his good friend Garth.
* LukeIAmYourFather: He's the son of Aquaman's nemesis, Black Manta.
* MasterActor: Gives a stunning RageAgainstTheMentor speech to Aquaman, regularly drops [[DoubleMeaning messages to the others involved in his deception disguised as badass threats]] and convinces everyone he actually killed Artemis with a little sleight of hand.
** He is so convincing that even Wally, who is in on the plan, is concerned that Aqualad might really be an evil ''triple'' agent playing Nightwing.
* MagicKnight: His powers come from Atlantean magic, but his fighting style is considerably more hands-on than other Atlantean magicians.
* MeaningfulName:
** His name is an Atlantean spin on his adoptive father's name, Calvin Durham.
** In Icelandic his name means "cool".
* MeaningfulRename: Becomes Black Manta II after his [[FakeDefector fake]] FaceHeelTurn, as he's the son of Black Manta.
* MindRape: M'gann rips the memories out of his mind and leaves him catatonic in "Before the Dawn".
* TheMole: Infiltrated Black Manta's organization to get intel on the Light.
* MoleInCharge: Not in charge, but he is TheDragon to Black Manta.
* MorphWeapon: His waterbearers have a ''lot'' of different uses, thus becoming an ImpossiblyCoolWeapon.
* MrExposition: Whenever a new face pops up that the audience doesn't know, he's usually the one to give the exposition on who they are.
** He actually explains all the reasons for his apparent FaceHeelTurn before the end of his first appearance as a villain in "Alienated".
* MultiMeleeMaster: His waterbearers can turn into swords, maces, hammers, bats and whips.
* NervesOfSteel: Comes along with the stoic part.
** What else do you call pretending to be evil in order to infiltrate some very powerful enemies, incurring the wrath of two equally powerful superhero teams, fending off attacks from his former friends, keeping his cool and sanity surrounded by villains, all the while making on-the-fly decisions that at once cement his position amongst his foes and minimize casualties amongst his friends to maintain his cover as a mole?
** In "Complications," while pretending to be an EmptyShell, Chesire hurls a sai at him (which is blocked at the last second by Miss Martian) and Aqualad doesn't so much as blink.
* NiceGuy: The nicest member on the team after Miss Martian.
* NotSoStoic: Sometimes, Kaldur's stoicism gives way to snark.
-->'''Red Arrow''' (after Kaldur asks if he needs help): Please. I don't need help from the Junior Justice League.
-->'''Aqualad''': Just our computers.
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Took Deathstroke out of the picture offscreen, allowing Miss Martian to take his place in "Summit".
* {{Omniglot}}: He can speak English, Atlantean, and a little bit of Greek.
* OnlySaneMan: Compared to most of team early in the first season.
* OverlordJr: As part of his [[TheMole infiltration of the Light]], he plays this part to his father, Black Manta.
* PoweredArmor: Kaldur's Black Manta uniform in season two. It gives Kaldur missile launchers and EyeBeams on top of the Atlantean abilities [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman his father lacks]].
* PowerGlows: His tattoos glow blue when he uses his powers.
* PowerTattoo: Has eel tattoos on his arms.
* APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil: Subverted, that's what everyone is supposed to believe.
* RageAgainstTheMentor: Calls out Aquaman for hiding the identity of his true father. In "Alienated" it was probably part of the ruse, but in ''Legacy'', he was genuinely hurt and angered.
-->'''Aquaman''': Perhaps you should discuss this with your parents.\\
'''Aqualad''': I am discussing it with ''you.''
* RankUp: Goes from Aquaman's sidekick to taking up the mantle himself between seasons 2 and 3, and becomes leader of the League after that.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives a short but sweet one to Vandal Savage on his chronic case of UnderestimatingBadassery, punctuated by a BigDamnHeroes moment.
* RedeemingReplacement: He is in fact a deep cover agent.
* RedIsHeroic: His shirt is red and he's one of the good guys.
* RedOniBlueOni: In Season 1, Kaldur has this dynamic with both Red Arrow and Superboy, being the stoic and cool-headed blue to their HotBlooded and ill-tempered red.
* RousingSpeech: Aqualad, Robin and Kid Flash to give one in "Misplaced" to kids who can help pick up the slack after all the adults going missing.
* SadisticChoice: Gives one to Superboy and Nightwing after his FaceHeelTurn, either fight him and try to bring him in or disarm a bomb that could kill a lot of Kroloteans and the other heroes in the base. The worst part is they couldn't even disarm the bomb. He was trying to warn Nightwing about the bomb without blowing his cover.
* ScaryBlackMan: Played with. Despite his stature and [[BadassBaritone voice]] making him somewhat intimidating, he's a straight-up NiceGuy -- but in "Depths," he's well and truly terrifying.
* SecretTestOfCharacter:
** He was put through this by his [[ProperlyParanoid father, Black Manta]]. Kaldur "kills" Artemis, but what really earns him Black Manta's trust is that he ''didn't take credit'' for the rocket he was sent to destroy blowing up in an apparent fluke accident.
** Again in "Darkest" where Kaldur blows up Mount Justice to prove his loyalty to The Light and their partner.
* ShapingYourAttacks: In addition to shaping water into weapons, Kaldur is capable of fashioning water into the shapes of attacking sea creatures, as seen in "Targets."
* ShirtlessScene: In "Welcome to Happy Harbor" and "Infiltrator".
* SleevesAreForWimps: His uniform is a skintight suit that leaves his arms bare.
* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: He was on the receiving end of this by Red Arrow.
* SpockSpeak: Without the antisocial stigma.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Has his mother's hair color, eyes and Atlantean traits but physically looks like his father.
* SuddenSequelHeelSyndrome: See SuperDickery below.
* SuperDickery: Shows up as an [[HiddenHeartOfGold apparent villain]] out for revenge against all his friends in the early episodes of season 2. It's eventually revealed he's actually a [[TheMole mole]] for the Team.
* TheStoic: He's calm, soft-spoken, and doesn't express emotion all that much.
* TheStrategist: His plan to turn the Light and the Reach against each other worked to near-perfection. Vandal Savage, quite possibly the best strategist in the series, states that Kaldur had done more damage to his plans in a few minutes than anyone had in 50 millennia.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: One of the tallest of the team, dark skinned, and has been known to very attractive (i.e. Rocket in season one).
* TaughtByExperience: He, along with the other original members of the Team, became exceptionally more skilled over the 5 year time skip.
* TeamDad: Stated as such by Miss Martian. Aqualad often keeps the others in line, and even literally acts like an older brother/mentor to both Superboy and Robin.
* TechnicianVSPerformer: Kaldur is the technician to Superboy's performer and the perfomer in contrast to Robin's technician.
* ThickerThanWater: Claims to feel this way in Season 2.
* TranquilFury: Kaldur is the definition of this trope until season two, though that is likely an act.
* TwoGuysAndAGirl: Had this dynamic with Garth and Tula. He has feelings for Tula, but Garth and Tula start dating while Aqualad is on the surface.
* UndyingLoyalty: After "Alpha Male" Kaldur stands up and defends his team mates no matter what. Subverted after his FaceHeelTurn, though it's arguably because he felt the team betrayed him when Tula died. Then double subverted when it turns out he's been a FakeDefector all along.
* VillainousLineage: Goes evil after finding out his father is Black Manta. Later subverted when it's revealed he's actually a [[TheMole mole]].
* VillainousWidowsPeak: Averted. Subverted in season 2.
* WarriorTherapist: Shades of this when he first meets Superboy.
* WeakButSkilled: His magic is quite weak compared to his friends Garth and Tula. Because of his training under Aquaman though, he's far superior in physical combat. When compared to other members of the Team he floats in between because he has super strength, great agility and other above average abilities and skills, but is outdone by other members of the team in a few of them.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In-universe. Both Kaldur and Garth, the comics' original Aqualad, were offered the chance to be Aquaman's sidekick. Kaldur accepted; Garth declined, choosing to further his magic studies. {{Lampshaded}} when Kaldur asks Garth if he ever wonders what would have happened if he'd become Aqualad instead.
* WhiteSheep: He is a hero while his father Black Manta is a villain. Double subverted in Season 2.
* WouldHitAGirl: Has no problem punching out female villains. Just ask Killer Frost.
* YouAreNotAlone: In "Fix", Artemis tells him this in his ruined mindscape while suffering through the MindRape placed on him. Artemis states a word in Atlantean ("symbiosi") to show that she and M'gann want to help him.
* YoungAndInCharge: By ''Outsiders'', he's the leader of the Justice League, full of experienced members far older than him, at ''23''.

----
[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:General]]
-->'''Current Members:''' Clark Kent / Superman, Diana Prince / Wonder Woman, Barry Allen / The Flash, Hal Jordan / Green Lantern, J'onn J'onnz / Martian Manhunter, Billy Batson / Captain Marvel, Dinah Lance / Black Canary, John Stewart / Green Lantern, Red Tornado, Nabu / Doctor Fate, Ray Palmer / The Atom, Icon, Guy Gardner / Green Lantern, Zatanna Zatara, Raquel Irvin / Rocket, Kaldur'ahm / Aquaman II, John Henry Irons / Steel
-->'''Former Members:''' Giovanni Zatara, Roy Harper II / Red Arrow, Ted Kord / Blue Beetle II, King Orin / Aquaman, Bruce Wayne / Batman, Oliver Queen / Green Arrow, Kate Kane / Batwoman, Curtis Metcalf / Hardware, Tatsu Yamashiro / Katana, Eel O'Brien / Plastic Man, Jefferson Pierce / Black Lightning
* AdultsAreUseless: The incident with Red Tornado stands out as an example of where they ''should'' be far more competent, but otherwise they are pretty on the ball.
* BackForTheFinale: The six that were in Rimbor, Hawkman, Icon and the Franchise/GreenLantern members that joined them.
* BadassCrew: Actually subverted. Individually each League member is incredibly powerful, but they aren't a cohesive force like The Team is so their capabilities when working in groups tend to be somewhat underwhelming. Which makes sense, as the Team consider each other family, while the League are more like adults at work. Several of them are friends, but not in the same way.
* BadassTeacher: Many of them are mentors towards The Team.
* BigGood: The League itself, which the characters frequently mention as possible support when it looks like the situation is something they can not handle themselves. The League also has a rotating chairman who embodies the trope more then others.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: At the end of Season 1, the entire League is taken over by Vandal Savage and Klarion.
* BreakingTheFellowship: At the beginning of ''Outsiders'', the Justice League deal with mass resignations with Batman leading the charge, due to their inability to operate against the crime they were formed to stop. By the end, Batman gets Green Arrow, Batwoman, Hardware, Steel, Katana, and Plastic Man to leave, while Black Lightning quits for different reasons. It even seeps into the Team, with Robin, Spoiler, and Arrowette leaving with their mentors.
* ClearMyName: A variation. The "sixteen hours" (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, John Stewart, and Hawkwoman) Leaguers leave Earth (with Hawkman, Hal Jordan, and Icon in tow) to face charges in "Alienated". Although they actually did do it, they were actually BrainwashedAndCrazy at the time.
* DemotedToExtra: The entire team, since the series focuses their sidekicks. Creator/CartoonNetwork even touted the show this way in early promos, counting on the audiences familiar with the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' cartoon to cause shock when the protagonists were revealed to be the children.
* ExpressiveMask: The members who actually wear masks are usually presented as this.
* ElaborateUndergroundBase: Formerly operated out of Mount Justice.
* FinalBoss: The season 1 finale has the Team fight the entire league... and win. See TheWorfEffect.
%%* HelpingWouldBeKillStealing
* GoodIsNotSoft: They are ''the'' premiere hero team, with the virtue and dedication to the good fight that entails. But they're also willing to entertain darker methods than you would believe clear cut heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman would engage in. Their use of the Team is essentially the employment of ChildSoldiers, said Team has been tasked with acting where the League can't because of their charter with the United Nations, and they are seen to keep numerous secrets from the public, with the implication that they don't even announce members dying in action for reasons relating to public relations.
* HeroesOfAnotherStory: There are occasional mentions of Leaguers being busy on other missions. Prisons like Belle Reve are full because of them.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: As of the second season, the entire League are wanted criminals in Rann space. This is because the Light sent a team of brainwashed Leaguers to their area of space and had them go on a rampage while broadcasting their identity.
** Closer to home, G. Gordon Godfrey is running a smear campaign on the Justice League, particularly the alien members. It seems to be working.
* LivingProp: Some members haven't received lines yet.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: At least twenty-six members by the end of ''Invasion''. By ''Outsiders'', there have been at least 36 members of the League, [[DownplayedTrope although]] several are either offworld or have resigned at the start of the season.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted; four separate members of the League are named "John" ([[ComicBook/MartianManhunter Jones]], [[ComicBook/GreenLantern Stewart]], [[ComicBook/RedTornado Smith]], and [[ComicBook/{{Steel}} Irons]]), and one has the Italian variation of the name (Zatara).
* OrderVersusChaos: Order to The Light's chaos.
* PutOnABus: The six Leaguers who were brainwashed into attacking Rimbor have now left to stand trial and prove their innocence. Accompanying them are Hawkman (who refuses to leave Hawkwoman) and Icon, who's acting as advocate.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Most of the League members who regularly interact with the Team are this.
* SpaceBase: The Watchtower
* SpiritualSuccessor: To the Justice Society of America, as usual.
* StoryBreakerPower: Probably the reason why most of the League's strongest members get PutOnABus to space early in season 2. Freely admitted by Creator/GregWeisman when it comes to the League's two (in season two, three) Green Lanterns: they are frequently off world because they're so powerful that they should be able to neutralize just about anything, but also justified because they're responsible for protecting more than just Earth.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: Although there are three female members on the team, which technically means it doesn't count, the full roster is ''sixteen'' members so the essential truth of this trope is still in play. Interestingly, Franchise/WonderWoman seems to be actively working against this, as one of her stated criteria for an ideal new member to the League is that they be a woman to help shift the gender ratio.
* TheWorfEffect: As stated above, the entire League is beaten by the Team in the season 1 finale. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] by the fact that Klarion had to control all of them at once (therefore making it harder to make them each effective in battle), while the Team could take on one to a few at a time. Kid Flash [[LampshadeHanging comments on this to]] Artemis.

The Big Blue Boyscout -- though, perhaps a little less so than most interpretations. Though still the symbol for Truth, Justice and American Way, Superman was more than a little freaked out about the discovery of his clone, Superboy. He spent most of the first season avoiding any responsibility for him, despite the efforts of the rest of his colleagues to make him reconsider. He eventually accepts Conner as a little brother rather than a son come ''Invasion''.

One of the most powerful characters, with flight, super-strength, heat-vision and much, much more.[[labelnote:note]]Some of the tropes listed for Superman here are from the tie in comic, '''NOT''' the animated series itself, so don't be surprised if a few come off as InformedAttribute or AllThereInTheManual. [[/labelnote]]
----
* ActionDad: ''Home Fires'' reveals that he and Lois already have Jon.
* AdaptationalJerkass: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Superman is still the AllLovingHero NiceGuy but he acts quite aloof and distant to Superboy. Post-Season 1, however, he's become very involved in his "little brother's" life, to the point where Superboy complains that he's "pushy".
* AllLovingHero: In theory at least, though not always in action.
* AloofBigBrother: {{Averted|Trope}}. When Superman [[TakeAThirdOption chooses to consider Superboy as a younger brother, rather than being his father like everyone else wanted or refusing to interact as he wanted]], he warms up to him quite considerably, even giving him a Kryptonian name and essentially adopting him.
* BadassBaritone: Fitting a man of his size and gravitas, Superman sports a deep, mature voice.
* BadassCape: As per custom for every version of Superman.
* BigBrotherInstinct: He does not respond well to people trash talking or attacking Conner.
** In the tie-in comics where Superman fried Brainiac with his heat vision for insulting Superboy.
** He took a missile in the chest for Superboy in the season 2 episode ''Alienated''.
** He was Conner's first choice to be his Best Man for his wedding and said 'Yes' before fully processing the fact that Conner was even getting married since he's been busy off world.
* BigBrotherMentor: To Superboy in Season 2.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Lex Luthor claims he has this.
* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: As with BadassCape, it's Superman. You can't not have this trope.
* TheCape: 'Natch.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: His refusal to leave the Kroloteans behind plants him in the middle of an explosion that can be seen from orbit. He survives, but Superboy knows that failing to save them means he still won't be okay.
* ClarkKenting: Spectacularly done in the tie-in comics, where Clark tags along on Superboy and Miss Martian's mission. Miss Martian instantly recognizes him because she recognizes Conner's face despite his glasses and hat, and tells him so, explaining that Superboy doesn't because he doesn't keep mirrors and rarely sees his own reflection. Clark sheepishly explains that he wants the chance to get to know Superboy as Clark, not Superman.
* CostumeEvolution: Superman spends both Season 1 and 2 in the classic costume the character is traditionally known for, red trunks and all. By the time of Season 3 however he's switched to a new outfit that resembles a mixture of his ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse'' and ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'' costumes.
* EyeBeams: Superman's laser vision makes a return.
* TheFace: He's the most popular and recognizable hero in the world, but he's not the leader of the Justice League. In fact, even with the rotating chairman position, we've never actually seen him in charge once or take any real declarative positions (besides nominating Icon for League induction). He seems content to simply defer to others' opinions and decisions while remaining the League's spokesman.
* FlyingBrick: [[TropeCodifier As ever]].
* HeroicBuild: Has an impressive muscular build and is obviously a hero.
* HesDeadJim: He's first to realize that Black Lightning accidentally killed a mutated little girl because his SuperSenses couldn’t detect a heartbeat.
* HumanAliens: Kryptonians are [[IncrediblyLamePun super]]ficially identical to humans.
* InterspeciesRomance: As tradition, he's in a relationship with Lois Lane. Season 3 reveals that he and Lois now have a son, Jon Kent.
* LastOfHisKind: He's apparently on the lookout for people who share his powers.
-->'''Superman:''' I nominate Icon for League membership.
-->'''Green Arrow:''' Why? Because you suspect Icon might be Kryptonian like you did with Captain Marvel?
** He also {{Facepalm}}s when the Collector of Worlds leaves before he can ask if he collected anything from Krypton.
* ParentalSubstitute: Even though [[ParentalNeglect he rejected his "child" in the beginning]], he counts as this to Superboy.
* PrimaryColorChampion: As per tradition, Superman still wears a blue uniform with his famous red-and-yellow "S" shield on his chest, red trunks, a yellow belt, red boots and a red cape.
* ShipperOnDeck: For Conner and M'gann. When Conner asks him to be his best man at his wedding, he quickly accepts without even getting to the specifics first.
* SuperSenses: Enhanced vision and hearing. Probably the other three as well, but the two main ones are those.
* SuperSpeed: Although Weisman prefers "enhanced speed" - he's slower than Kid Flash who is slower than the other three speedsters.
* SuperStrength: Again, Superman. He can support a collapsing bridge and lift a bus into the air, which Superboy was struggling to lift. He's twice as as strong as his half-brother and arguably the strongest member on the League.
* RedIsHeroic: Per usual for every version of Superman to wear a red cape.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: Either as Superman or Clark Kent, he qualifies.
* ThatThingIsNotMyChild: Deconstructed and [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. There's nothing particularly anti-clone about it and he doesn't actually dislike Superboy, but he's ''not'' happy when Batman calls him Superboy's "father". His rationalization is that Conner will do better with role models who don't have all their baggage. Also, to be fair, pretty much anybody would be freaked out by the idea of a younger copy of themselves walking around. Since he is [[AllLovingHero Superman]] he never acts in a negative way towards Conner and is simply distant and visibly uncomfortable around Conner but not repulsed or disgusted. By Season 2, He's comfortably referring to Conner as a little brother. Doubles as a MythologyGag to the comics, where both the Silver Age and Clone Superboys were involved in a "Cool Big Brother" dynamic. Clark with Mon-El, Conner with Clark.
* TookALevelInKindness: In season 2, in which he accepts Superboy. Not that he was horrifically unkind before so much as too distant for his own good.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: His reaction when he learns ComicBook/LexLuthor took the credit for stopping the Reach and is now the favorite for "new secretary-general of the United Nations". It's actually quite funny.

->''"When all is said and done, the question must be - whom do we trust?"''

Wonder Woman seems to stand as the moral center of the League. She takes a backseat in the story for the majority of the time, but is quick to call Superman and Batman out on their mistakes, and takes on Wonder Girl as her protege between seasons 1 and 2.
----
* AdaptationalModesty: While still muscular and buxom, this incarnation's iconic bustier covers her cleavage entirely.
* CostumeEvolution: Wears her traditional outfit from the comics in Season 1 and 2. By the time of Season 3 her costume has changed to have elements from both ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'' and more notably the ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse''.
* FlyingBrick: Has superhuman strength and can fly.
* FriendToAllChildren: {{Implied|Trope}}. She didn't agree with Batman's choice of letting Robin I enter the world of crimefighting at the age of nine; earlier, Wonder Woman didn't like the idea of Captain Marvel being in the League when he is only ten and was quite upset he (along with Batman) withheld the information.
* TheHeart: Acts as the moral center of the League.
* TheLeader: In ''Outsiders'', she and Kaldur are co-chairmen of the Justice League with Kaldur handling the part of the League still on Earth while she's leading the rest of the League in space.
* OlderThanSheLooks: Her official stats say she's ninety years old (of course, she ''is'' partially immortal; physically, she's roughly in her 30s).
* PrimaryColorChampion: As per tradition, she still wears a strapless red bustier held up by a brace of gold resembling two W's, a large golden belt, blue briefs with five white stars on them, red boots with a white stripe on the front side, silver bracelets around her wrists, red star earrings, and a golden diadem with a red star on her forehead.
* RapunzelHair: Reaches down her waist.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: Long, raven hair and has a pale complexion.
* SuperStrength: Enough to rival Superman.
* TokenGoodTeammate: [[spoiler:Downplayed; while everyone involved in the "Anti-Light" conspiracy is a hero, Diana is the only one to voice reservations about what they're doing, and won't hesitate to call the others out when she feels they've gone too far.]]
* WarriorPrincess: She's the daughter of Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, and she kicks ass. Drawing from her Amazonian training, Wonder Woman is quite adept in close-range battle. Using her bracelets, she is able to skillfully deflect incoming projectiles.

Mentor to Kid Flash, ''the'' Flash has taken up his mantel from its previous owner, Garrick. He's a dedicated uncle and mentor, and one of the more friendly League members, though still serious when needed.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: This version of Barry is faster than Wally, a reversal of the comics were Wally was even faster than him, thus making him one of the most powerful characters in the setting. The reason for him being faster is that this version of the accident was the perfected version, bonding with his molecules, whereas Wally's was an inferior product with genuine consequences.
* AscendedFanboy: In the tie-in comics, Wally explains that Barry was a big fan of The Flash and spent a lot of time talking to Jay Garrick before duplicating the FreakLabAccident that gave him his powers.
* BigEater: Pretty much a given because he has to eat to regain his super speed.
* CatchPhrase: "[[IncrediblyLamePun Back in a flash!]]" Lampshaded by the Flash Family.
-->'''Impulse''': "Does he say that often?"
-->'''Rest of the Family''': *sigh* "Too often."
* CoolUncle: He's a little dorky, but Wally thinks he's cool.
* CostumeEvolution: His outfit in Seasons 1 and 2 was essentially the same look as that featured in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueCrisisOnTwoEarths'' and ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueDoom'', which itself was a slightly more anatomically realistic take on Wally West's Flash design from ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague''. By Season 3 his costume now looks more similar to his counterpart from the ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse''.
* ExpressiveMask: In previous seasons, but now his regular eyes are visible in costumes as of ''Outsiders''.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: A NiceGuy who's also a super hero.
* HappilyMarried: To Wally West's aunt Iris.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Married to Iris, who has the same red hair color as Wally.
* HotScientist: When The Flash becomes Barry Allen, he's a CSI for the police; Barry has a degree in forensic science.
* InSeriesNickname: "Bartholomew" is his full name, but he's nicknamed "Barry".
* InterspeciesRomance: Him (a metahuman) and Iris (a human).
* LegacyCharacter: As seen in "Downtime", the Flash family has had several generations of speedsters.
* LongingLook: To Iris in "Failsafe," but subtle since they're on air at the time and aliens are killing everyone.
* MundaneUtility: In "Downtime", he uses his super speed to clear the dinner table inside of ten seconds.
* NiceGuy: Which Mary West has been heard to hope will rub off on Wally.
* NotHisSled: In the finale he recreates his famous death scene with his two proteges. Except in a twist he doesn't die -- Wally does. It even looked like he was going to give his life to save Wally's, but when Barry got to him, Wally was already beyond saving.
* OhCrap: A much more tragic and heartbreaking one, but the look on his face when it's clear that he can't save Wally in Endgame is all over this.
* RedIsHeroic: Like always The Flash is a hero and sports his signature red suit.
* ScienceHero: He gained his powers by carefully recreating Jay Garrick's accident in a controlled experiment, and is a police scientist in his day job.
-->'''Kid Flash:''' "Are you having a CSI moment?"
-->'''Flash:''' "Kid, I was [=CSI=] before anybody knew what [=CSI=] was."
* SuperSenses: Flash can also speak, hear, and see faster than any normal being.
* SuperSpeed: He's the Flash. Fastest man alive and all that.

* MythologyGag: In the comics, Hal suffering from RapidAging was a result of being influenced by Parallax, an evil parasite in his power ring that would eventually [[DemonicPossession possess him]].
* OutOfFocus: He has the least amount of focus out of the founding members of the league, and has no little to no dialogue of his own so far.
* SkunkStripe: By Season 3, he has gained gray temples.
* SpacePolice: The entire point of Green Lanterns in the first place.

* BadassBeard: Much like [[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold another Aquaman]], he maintains his classic look whilst having the beard the character was first seen with during the 90's.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Seems to be an Atlantean thing; webbed feet do make swimming easier, though.
* TheGoodKing: Of Atlantis.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: A wise and reasonable adult, who happens to be a hero.
* HappilyMarried: He has a close and loving relationship with Queen Mera.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Is married to Mera.
* MyGreatestFailure: Believes Kaldur'ahm's FaceHeelTurn to be his, not knowing that he's really been undercover.
* NiceGuy: A good king in front and away from the public eye.
* OvershadowedByAwesome: By, of all people, his sidekick. This comes to a head in ''Outsiders'', as Kaldur actually succeeds him as the new Aquaman.
* PutOnABus: By ''Outsiders'', Aquaman has evidently retired from superheroics and succeeded by his former apprentice Kaldur in the title. Mera appears along with his son Artur, suggesting he's focusing on kingly and family duties instead. As such, he has yet to make an appearance in the season.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Aside from running his kingdom, he is an active member of the Justice League.

The uncle of Miss Martian, this green skinned alien is a serious and reserved figure, though still a kind one. He clearly cares deeply for his niece, and is a formidable super-hero.
----
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Inverted. In the comics, J'onn is the LastOfHisKind, but not in this adaptation.
* BadassBaritone: A given when voiced by Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson.
* BaldOfAwesome: J'onn is a completely hairless Green Martian and even his humanlike form does not have any hair, unlike Miss Martian's original humanlike form.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: Kevin Michael Richardson seems to be channeling Creator/{{Carl|Lumbly}} [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague Lumbly]] in his performance for J'onn.
* CompositeCharacter: Not of J'onn himself, but of his family. Earth-16's versions of Martian Manhunter and Miss Martian are a biologically related uncle and niece with Miss Martian being his sister's daughter, while in the comics they treat each other as family in an adoptive sense. No other version of J'onn is known to have a sister, only a brother, and both of Miss Martian's parents are good White Martians like her. This version of M'gann's mother retains most of the qualities of the original character, except she is a Green Martian and takes the place of J'onn's brother Ma'alefa'ak.
* DecompositeCharacter: Some facets of his comic book self have been notably shifted over to his niece Miss Martian, such as being the world's most powerful telepath and being the sibling of Ma'alefa'ak.
%%* IntangibleMan
%%* {{Invisibility}}
%%* KillerGameMaster: His alien invasion is the new tomb of horrors.
* LastOfHisKind: Surprisingly averted, given the character's other modern incarnations. His family alone includes ''hundreds'' [[MassiveNumberedSiblings of nieces and nephews]]. [[note]] As Greg Weisman has noted, the idea that J'onn was the last Martian was not present during the original Silver Age stories, and they chose not to include that in the Earth-16 version, in part because they felt it was too similar to Superman's last-of-his-kind schtick, while also not being as integral to the character's backstory.[[/note]]
%%* MindOverMatter
* NiceGuy: J'onn is a mellow, kindly man, even taking a moment to gently, albeit firmly, chide Batman when he fails to understand why the Team isn't bouncing back from their traumatic experience in "Failsafe".
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: 135 Earth-years old - in [[WeAreAsMayflies Martian terms]], mid-forties.
* ShapeshifterDefaultForm: According to WordOfGod, J'onn's [[http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=15057 natural form]] is pretty similar to M'gann's, except bigger and greener.
%%* ShapeShifting
* {{Telepathy}}: A staple of the Martian Manhunter, although unlike his comic counterpart, he is outpaced in terms of potential by his own niece.

Zatara appears to be one of the older Leaguers-- while Martian Manhunter and Wonder Woman have the years, they age differently. Zatara took a turn as the team's Den Mother after Captain Marvel and later brought his daughter, Zatanna, to meet them.

* MagiciansAreWizards: Both a stage magician and a powerful wizard.
* NiceHat: A top hat, to be specific.
* OverProtectiveDad: Considering how [[SquishyWizard weak]] Zatanna seems to be in actual combat at this point, this may be justified.
** Even as the new Doctor Fate his fatherly instincts make a quick surfacing when Zatanna is considered for League membership.
* PapaWolf: It even shows as the new Doctor Fate, which is immediately remarked upon by the rest of the League.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: As of "Misplaced", Zatara is the new Doctor Fate. At least he's not dead, though Zatanna is effectively orphaned.
* StageMagician: Looks like one, but has real magic.

* YoungerThanTheyLook: Not for the first two seasons, but he is by Season 3. He's 47 years old at this time, but looks a decade older than that ''at the least''.

A time-displaced veteran of the Vietnam War, [[AllThereInTheManual Captain Atom was brought in to teach the team espionage and covert ops techniques]]. By season two, he's taken over as the Justice League's current leader.
----

* AllThereInTheManual: If you thought his cameo in ''Homefront'' was out of left field, the tie-in comics explain that he was the team's instructor in covert ops. For practical experience, they cleared his name after he was accused of war crimes during the Vietnam War, which allowed him to reestablish contact with his estranged wife and adult children, so he knows the team, is grateful to them, and would be just as concerned as their other mentors when they realized something was wrong at Mount Justice. The tie-in comics also establish that Captain Atom was one of the first superheroes Jaime met, probably suggested him for recruitment, and Jaime respected him enough that he wanted to consult him before joining the team.
* AdaptationalNameChange: In the original comics, his name is Nathaniel ''Adam'', with no 's' on the end, to drive home his PunnyName that much more. Weisman (who, as noted below, helped relaunch the character in the '80s) commented that it sounded unnatural to him even then and took the opportunity to adjust it.
* BigGood: He's League Chairman in Season 2. He's a lot more hands-off than Batman, mostly because the Team has more than proven themselves by this point.
* CaptainSuperhero
* ClearMyName: In the tie-in comic he sends the Team to do that. He doesn't tell them whose name they're clearing, though.
* EnergyAbsorption: One of his powers-- he's seen absorbing the energy of a power plant about to go nuclear in ''Revelations.''
* MilitarySuperhero: More apparent in the tie-in comic, but also informs his leadership style in season two.
* TheLeader: As League Chairman.
* OlderThanHeLooks: He's actually 70 years old but, other than the white hair, doesn't look a day over 40.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Upon G. Gordon Godrey's speculation that Lex Luthor would be the next Secretary General of the United Nations, Cap formally resigned his Chairmanship of the League.

A powerful hand-to-hand fighter aided with her "sonic scream", Black Canary is one of the main mentors to the team. Although her role was initially to train them in fighting and make sure they didn't get into trouble, she stepped into a more emotionally supportive role, even offering them therapy sessions when necessary. In a relationship with Green Arrow.
----
* AuthorAppeal: Creator/GregWeisman [[WordOfGod admits]] that her prominent role is at least partially because she's his favorite DC character.
* BadassTeacher: The combat teacher to the Team. And one-upped [[SuperStrength Superboy]].
* BigGood: She's made the new League Chairman in the second season finale.
* BoundAndGagged: In "Auld Acquaintance".
* BrutalHonesty: Likes to get right to the point.
* CoolBigSis: Her relationship with Red Arrow, according to WordOfGod.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Wears black clothing and she's a heroine.
* DudeMagnet: Besides being in a relationship with Green Arrow, Kid Flash flirted with her the first time they meet. M'gann took Dinah's form to engage in a shapeshifter makeout game with Superboy, implying the young man has a small crush on her. And one of Victor Stone's classmates commented that he had a crush on her.
* FightsLikeANormal: As usual, she is a very capable fighter without using her powers. Just ask Superboy.
* FingerlessGloves: Has a pair of black, elbow-length fingerless gloves.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Despite her demeanor, she's an easy person to talk to.
* HotTeacher: She has [[ChivalrousPervert Wally]] drooling over her, and though Superboy isn't exactly the most emotive of the cast, he clearly has a crush on her.
* InterspeciesRomance: Her (a metahuman) and Green Arrow (a human).
* LegacyCharacter: Is the daughter of the original Black Canary according to WordOfGod.
* MakeMeWannaShout: When she actually uses her powers, which is rare.
* MeaningfulName: "Dinah" is Hebrew for "judged", like how she judged (not harshly), but truly the psyches of the members of the Team. See WarriorTherapist.
* MsFanservice: She embodies this trope as much as Creator/CartoonNetwork would allow, given her [[BoobsOfSteel buxom]] and [[ShesGotLegs legs]].
* NiceGirl: Dinah is compassionate, patient, and understanding, even when she's shown disrespect (by Superboy in "Schooled") or angry (with Miss Martian, in "Identity").
* OfficialCouple: With Green Arrow.
* ResignedToTheCall: Her reaction to becoming League Chairman.
* SexyMentor: To Superboy, leading to M'gann taking her form in a little shapeshifter makeout game with him. Dinah herself is not pleased.
* ShipperOnDeck: Implied. During her private therapy conversations with Wally and Artemis in "Disordered", she points out the former's extreme reaction to Artemis's "death" in the previous episode and the latter being concerned with how Wally would take the reveal of her family's villainous history. Also, when she notes that in regards to Artemis, she briefly smiles to herself.
* SternTeacher: To the Team, but gives praise when it is deserved.
* TaughtByExperience: Firmly believes that injuries and setbacks in missions is "part of the hero's job" and helps mature the hero.
* WarriorTherapist: As shown in "Disordered". Not only does she train the Team, she helps them deal with trauma.
* WhatTheHellHero: Canary calls out Green Arrow for going behind Kaldur's back to join Batman in resigning from the League. She's so angry that she refuses to consider leaving with them, coldly telling Oliver to just leave.
* YouAreNotAlone: {{Invoked|Trope}}. Black Canary tries to tell Clone!Roy that even though he feels lost, that doesn't means he's alone. Sadly, it doesn't sink in.

'''Billy Batson voiced by:''' Creator/RobertOchoa (Season 1), Chad Lowe (Season 2)

Though on the surface just a brave and chivalrous super-hero, Captain Marvel is actually just a good-hearted young boy in a powered adult's body. A little boy who just really, ''really'' wants the Team and Justice League to like him. Don't let his puppy-dog demeanor fool you, though. His good nature earned his powerful abilities, and when he's not fooling around, he's pretty wise, too.
----
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Being a young boy on the inside, Billy can be easily distracted by something cool. Like tigers.
* AscendedFanboy: Billy idolizes all heroes and is a hero himself who works with said heroes he looks up to.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. After his real age was found out, a few of the Leaguers wondered if Captain Marvel should be on the team because of it. And that while he may have the Wisdom of Solomon, that doesn't mean he's mature.
* BrainyBrunette: He has black hair and the Wisdom of Solomon.
* ButtMonkey: He constantly tries to get close to the team, who are essentially his peers. The team tends to assume that he's as authoritarian and hard-nosed as the other members of the League, so they (often unintentionally) undermine, take advantage of, or otherwise reject him in the process of saving the day. It's probably not the case after Billy revealed who he really was to them in "Misplaced".
* CaptainSuperhero
* CostumeEvolution: Averted. Unlike most of the league in ''Outsiders'', Billy's Captain Marvel form hasn't changed to match his comic counterparts' modern design.
* CallingYourAttacks: He would sometimes announce or reference which of his powers he was using at a time, whether it was using the Power of Zeus and Speed of Mercury to drill into the ground, or cite the Wisdom of Solomon as the source of his good advice.
* FlyingBrick: His comic counterpart was one of the first flying bricks in comics, so it carries over here.
* HenshinHero: Transforms from the powerless Billy to superpowered Captain Marvel.
* HeroicBuild: He has a big build and besides being a hero, he's one of the nicest.
* HonoraryTrueCompanion: Honorary because he won't join the Team; he's part of the Justice League. During Invasion, the League usually paired with former team members Rocket and Zatanna, and he was with Zatanna helping the group who lived at Mount Justice move.
* InnocentBlueEyes
* ImStandingRightHere: After his secret's revealed to the League at large, they have to debate whether he can stay.
-->'''Red Tornado:''' He does possess an adult body and the wisdom of Solomon.
-->'''Aquaman:''' Wisdom does not equal maturity.
-->'''Marvel:''' Hey, I'm sitting right here!
* JustAKid: He gets this treatment from some of the League in "Agendas" after real age was revealed.
* ManChild: As with [[ComicBook/{{Shazam}} the comic example]], Captain Marvel is really a kid. However, none of the teens know his real form, so he definitely comes off as being this trope.
* MorphicResonance: As a young adult, Billy now shares the same voice as Captain Marvel.
* {{Nephewism}}: In this version, Billy is being properly cared for by his Uncle Dudley.
* NiceGuy: The nicest.
* OlderAlterEgo: He's a kid when he's not being Captain Marvel.
* OneOfTheKids: Captain Marvel is known for retaining his innocence, but this incarnation is especially childish.
* PapaWolf: In order to protect the team from Despero. Considering his true age, maybe its more of a BigBrotherInstinct.
* PrimaryColorChampion: His costume is mostly red with gold accents like his thunder bolt logo, sash, and boots. He also wears a white cape.
* SecretKeeper: Billy has to keep the identity of Captain Marvel a secret due to the fact that he's really a ten-year-old kid. As of "Misplaced", the Team knows about his true identity. It's also clear that Batman knows but other Leaguers like Zatara don't, though they find out after this.
* ShockAndAwe: An unorthodox version: he gets struck by lightning every time he transforms from Billy to Captain Marvel or vice versa, and he's not above weaponizing it when the situation calls for it.
* SixthRanger: How he views himself in regards to the team. Unfortunately for him, the team didn't know that he's a kid until he revealed himself in "Misplaced", so they did what they can to keep him out of the loop.
* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: Billy goes back to the world of kids in Misplaced and asks Miss Martian to read his mind to prove that he's really Captain Marvel. Kid Flash doesn't buy it. Then, Billy goes:
-->'''Billy:''' Gee Wally, do I ''really'' have to bring you nachos and pineapple juice to get on your good side?
* SuperStrength: He's as strong as Superman.
* TagalongKid: Despite never being a kid at the time.
* WeaksauceWeakness: He'll revert back to Billy if he's ever tricked (or magically forced) to say "Shazam".
* WhatTheHellHero: In "Agendas", he's the first Leaguer to call out Nabu for the events of "Misplaced". He doesn't know why they're even keeping him in the League.
** Shortly after, however, the rest of the League, particularly Wonder Woman, call ''him'' out for concealing his age.
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: {{Lampshaded|Trope}} by Captain Marvel himself (the "wise" part anyway), when Aqualad thanks him for a pep talk.
-->'''Marvel:''' Hey, wisdom of Solomon.
** Seems to be in an "Only when I feel like it" way, since whenever nothing serious is going down, he's just a big kid.
** As pointed out by Aquaman when the League finds out about his alter-ego, "wisdom" doesn't necessarily mean "maturity".
* YouDidntAsk: The reason why he hid his age from the Justice League.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: As Captain Marvel. Billy looks his young age.

A robot with wind powers, Red Tornado doesn't quite ''get'' human emotions. That doesn't stop him for caring deeply for the Team he's been assigned to protect, (in his own way).

%%* BadassCape
* BlowYouAway: He has the power to generate wind.
* ColorCharacter: '''Red''' Tornado.
* DemotedToExtra: He's conspicuously absent in the second season (likely because Nightwing and the others have replaced him in the mentor role), and has only had two non-speaking appearances in "War" and "Summit".
* FaceHeelTurn: Subverted. It seems as if he defects in "Homefront", but in reality, he leaves to protect the Team and to find his creator, T.O. Morrow.
* FakeDefector: See FaceHeelTurn above.
* HelpingWouldBeKillstealing: Every time the team ask for help he tells them they have to do it on their own.
* HeroicSacrifice: Was trying to make one with his siblings when he nearly melted to take down his evil brother. Superboy saved him at the last minute.
* InterspeciesAdoption: By Season 3 he's the proud adoptive father of a human girl.
* MundaneUtility: In ''Outsiders'', he demonstrates that his wind powers aren't just useful in heroism; they're also good for parlor tricks to entertain children.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
* OldSuperhero: It's revealed that before the [[Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica Justice League]] was formed, he was part of the ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica (see below) decades earlier. Of course, being an android, he hasn't physically aged.
* PrimaryColorChampion: He's a red robot who has a yellow T symbol on his chest, and a yellow arrow on his forehead. He also wears a blue cape.
* RedIsHeroic: He's a heroic, red robot.
%%* RobotBuddy
* TheStoic: He is a robot, so stoicism isn't unexpected for him. "Auld Acquaintance", however, shows that, while in his "John Smith" body, he can display emotion far more readily. [[NotSoStoic Specifically, when ordering the team to get out of the cave, the urgency in his voice is especially noticeable]].
* TeamMom: Tornado's role in Season 1 is to act as a den mother to the Team.
* TookALevelInKindness: He became the Den Mother in order to become more human. It has had an effect, as he's come to care for the Team... and later on, his "father." By Season 3 he has adopted a daughter as John Smith and happily plays with children by creating little tornadoes to amuse them.

An ancient being tasked with protecting the world from the powers of chaos, Dr. Fate must take on a mortal body as his host- and he doesn't much care what said host has to say about it. While he can be a major asset to the forces of good, the price paid might sometimes be too high.
----
* AdaptationOriginConnection: Nabu is revealed to be a son of Vandal Savage from Babylonian times in this continuity, which is something that hasn't ever happenned in the comics or any other adaptations before.
* AndIMustScream: Fate's host is trapped inside their own head, able to observe how Nabu controls them but are unable to do anything about it. Nabu himself is trapped in the Helmet of Fate and part of his lack of concern over possessing his host is because he's sick of being nothing more than an ornament.
* AttackReflector: In "War", he is able to absorb the beam from the [=WarWorld=]'s WaveMotionGun and send it right back, utterly wrecking the gun.
* BadassBaritone: A deep voice courtesy of Mr. Richardson.
* BadassBoast: In ''Revelation'', he gives a nice one as he disperses the Joker Venom.
-->'''"Fear not! Fate has intervened!"'''
* BadassCape: Whoever wears the Helmet of Fate get a badass golden one.
* BodySnatcher: How many regard him, especially Captain Marvel.
* BrutalHonesty: He tends not to bother with beating around the bush, most of the time. This is actually one of his better traits, since the League knows he doesn't bother with lying, such as when he explains ''why'' Zatara, his current host, wants him on the League - [[MoralityChain so they can keep an eye on him]].
* ClingyCostume: Once someone puts on the Helmet of Fate, it cannot be removed unless Nabu wants it to.
* CombatStilettos: When possessing Zatanna.
* ConverseWithTheUnconscious: Regularly converses with whoever is serving as his host, even though he's fully inhabiting their body.
* CoolHelmet: Essentially IS the helmet.
* DeadpanSnarker: Very occasionally.
* TheFaceless: Nabu's original body is never seen without his helmet, and the ones who later wear it have to essentially give up their own identities to be Doctor Fate, which is why Kent Nelson stopped wearing it for a time.
* ForbiddenChekhovsGun: The helmet is mentioned during a crisis and the League considers if they're desperate enough to use it - mainly because Nabu doesn't particularly like the idea of relinquishing his host. Every time someone puts the helmet on it's because the situation has crossed the GodzillaThreshold.
* GoodIsNotNice: He's never claimed to be nice. Or even specifically good, for that matter.
* TheHatMakesTheMan: Possesses the body of whoever puts on the Helmet.
* HauntedFetter: The Helmet is possessed by Nabu, who in turn possesses whoever puts it on.
* {{Jerkass}}: Nabu is arrogant, prideful, blunt, callous, and self-righteous; while he's on the side of good, few people are particularly pleased by his company.
* KilledOffForReal: Kent Nelson. His spirit did reside in the Helmet of Fate for a while, but Fate eventually got tired of his nagging every time someone used the helmet and sent him off to the afterlife.
* LargeHam: He's not too emotive, but nearly everything Nabu says has a tremendous amount of gravitas.
-->'''"Wotan! You are mine!"'''
* LegacyCharacter: Several people have wore the Helmet of Fate, but most of them temporarily.
* LightIsNotGood: A borderline example. Calling him good is generous, all things considered, yet, his golden light powers and ankh symbol definitely render him light aligned.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: Like his father Vandal, Nabu is a WellIntentionedExtremist willing to cross quite a few moral lines for the sake of the greater good. Like Vandal, he's also somewhat sympathetic to family bonds.
* MaskOfPower: The Helmet of Fate turns the wearer into a host for an extremely powerful Lord of Order, who's got some crazy powerful magic abilities.
* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: He's called Doctor Fate, but whether he is a doctor is unspecified. He's also not particularly nice.
* NotSoStoic: Sometimes, partly because it's hinted that he was lonely all those years being left on a shelf, partly because it's indicated that his personality is at least somewhat influenced by whoever is serving as host at the time. For instance, when being hosted by Zatara, he breaks his usual emotionless attitude when Zatanna is considered for League membership. This is noticed by the rest of the League.
* OrderVersusChaos: Represents order, and not necessarily in a very nice (or classically good) way.
* PetTheDog: He listens to Kent Nelson, who's just about the only person who can persuade him to do anything, until Nabu eventually gets tired of his nagging to release those who put on his helmet, and releases him to the afterlife.
** He also accepts Zatara's promise to become the new host of Fate and willingly releases Zatanna, even though he'd have no control over whether or not Zatara actually followed through.
** It's revealed in Season 3 that he lets Zatanna and Zatara speak for one hour every year. Considering he's under no obligation to grant them even that meager time, that he allows it all is kind... for him.
* PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: Wearing the Helmet of Fate will make the wearer speak with Nabu's deep voice overlaying their voice.
* PowersThatBe: Is a personification of order given form on the physical plane.
* PowersViaPossession: How Fate works - though it is indicated that it helps if the host is already magically gifted.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In Season 3, Nabu is revealed to be Vandal Savage's son from Ancient Babylon, where Savage was ruling as the god-king Marduk. Nabu also had a sister who's remembered as the goddess Ishtar.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: When discussing whether or not to release Wally as his host, Nabu first mentions how lonely and depressing his existence as a helmet on shelf is before loudly asserting that he just wants to stop the forces of Chaos. Seeing as Kent agrees to hang around and keep Nabu company, it wasn't a very convincing claim.
* TokenEvilTeammate: While more morally ambiguous than outright evil, compared to the rest of the League, he's very dark. The League serves as a MoralityChain on him, a status he doesn't object to - he outright states that his current host wants him on the League for this exact reason.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Implied by the fact that Kent, his original host, had a full life outside of being Doctor Fate, suggesting that Nabu used to be more relaxed about being put on and taken off. Several decades on a shelf seem to have somewhat soured his disposition and made him very disinclined to release his host.
* TookALevelInKindness: His disposition improves somewhat after getting a permanent host.
* UnscrupulousHero: His actions are motivated purely by a desire to maintain order rather than any moral compulsion and he has few qualms about suppressing the identity of anyone he possesses, even if they're children - though he was convinced to release both Kid Flash and Aqualad without anyone else sacrificing themselves, and he is at least aware that putting on the helmet ''is'' a sacrifice. For example, when he possesses Zatanna:
-->'''"Fate decrees her sacrifice will not be in vain!"'''
* VoiceOfTheLegion: A ([[AntiHero largely]]) heroic example. Whoever wears the Helmet of Fate will speak with Nabu's deep voice overlying their voice.
* WasOnceAMan: Nabu was once a warrior living in ancient Babylonia, a son of Marduk (aka Vandal Savage) who died fighting by his father's side. Now, he's an incorporeal Lord of Order, bound to his helmet and needing a human host to influence the world around him.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He is absolutely convinced that the world needs him (and not without reason), and if that means whatever mortal happens to be wearing the helmet never gets to take it off, so be it. It's reached the point that Captain Marvel doesn't understand why they're letting him stay in the League, and is justifiably skeptical when Nabu claims that Zatara wants him to remain part of the League. Nabu then explains that Zatara wants him there so they can [[MoralityChain keep an eye on him]].
* WillingChanneler: Someone has to choose to put him on, though they might come to regret it.

->''"I don't need help from the Junior Justice League.''"

Red Arrow, formerly Speedy, was the junior partner of Green Arrow who trained the young man in the use of trick arrows as crimefighting tools. After being disgusted with the Justice League's idea of "bringing them into the circle", the younger archer set out on his own, leaving Aqualad, Robin, and Kid Flash to decide what to do with themselves by themselves. However, he's admitted that he respects the team, and that if they ever need a hand he's willing to help. He joins the team in "Insecurity", to set a good example for the others until he officially joins the Justice League, and not-so-secretly to uncover TheMole he suspects is on the team.

In "Usual Suspects" and "Auld Acquaintance" it's revealed ''he'' was TheMole all along, a ManchurianAgent planted on ComicBook/GreenArrow by The Light. Moreover, he isn't even the "real" Roy Harper, but a ''clone'' of Roy, that replaced the original mere months after Green Arrow took him on as his sidekick. After announcing his resignation from both the Justice League and the Team, Roy vows to find the original Speedy, who is last seen frozen in one of The Light's facilities and mysteriously missing his right arm.

Five years later, we find Red Arrow married to Cheshire, though the two have an on-again-off-again relationship due to Roy's obsession with finding the previous Speedy. The two also have a daughter, named Lian Nguyen-Harper. During the events of "Salvage" and "Bloodlines" the couple reconciles, and using Cheshire's underworld connections, Roy is finally able to locate and rescue Green Arrow's original sidekick.

By the time of ''Outsiders'', he runs a private security company called ''Bowhunter Security'' while taking the name Will.

----
* ActionDad: In Season 2 he has a daughter, and straightens up partly for her sake.
* AloofBigBrother: To Aqualad, Robin, and Kid Flash. He's protective of them and has absolute faith in their trustworthiness, but he deliberately sets himself apart from them and belittles their choices for the first ten episodes. On their end, they all respect his opinions, trust him implicitly, and, in the early episodes, have an adorable tendency to parrot anything he says about how the adults just don't understand.
* BabiesEverAfter: Has a daughter, Lian, with Jade/Cheshire in season 2.
* BackForTheFinale: In both seasons.
* BadassBeard: Has grown one in the third season, in contrast to the BeardOfSorrow he had in season 2.
* BadassNormal: His skill with the bow is such that he was able to aim for (and actually ''hit'') a target that ''Artemis'' (who's been shown to hit multiple targets at once) didn't want to risk aiming at. On the other hand, Artemis's reluctance likely had something to do with her desire to keep her relation to Cheshire and Sportsmaster a secret, the latter being the target Speedy hit.
* BattleCouple: With Cheshire, his wife as of season 2. They battle the henchman of a Tibetan monastery who were guarding the original Roy Harper...along with their infant daughter.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: In season one, Roy made it clear how much he wanted to join the Justice League. He gets his wish...and then discovers he was the brainwashed mole for the The Light and a clone.
* BeardOfSorrow: Has one in "Salvage", but soon shaves it off after finding out he's a father.
* BenevolentBoss: "Private Security" implies he gets along really well with the men he employs at Bowhunter Security, casually mentioning that he attends company softball games and post-game parties with them. When he adds his usual staff all got food poisoning the night before, there's no annoyance or frustration in his voice. And since he had to find suitable replacements for the goggle delivery job, it's telling how patient he is with them.
* BerserkButton: Being called a sidekick.
* BetterAsFriends: [[spoiler:Ultimately where he and Artemis start and then end up again in season 3]].
* BigBeautifulMan:
** By Season 3 he's put on some weight and is sporting a visible belly. Fan reception of Will's dad bod has been mostly positive since he's still attractive and has no issue fighting alongside Dick, Roy, and Jim. It also serves as a contrast to how malnourished and sickly he was in Season 2, with his weight gain indicating he's taking better care of himself and thus makes him more attractive since it's an improvement to his health.
** On another level, his weight gain works as a metaphor for his change in demeanor. His midsection softened just as his personality did.
* BigFun: Well not as extreme as most uses of this trope, but it's telling he seemed to have gained an honest to God sense of humor along with his belly. Given how rarely he joked in the past two seasons, and how often said jokes were rather dry and/or mean, it's a significant change for him.
* BigLittleBrother: Technically to the original Roy Harper AKA Arsenal. Red Arrow is chronologically 8 years old in season 2, but physically 23; Arsenal is actually 23, but his body is still that of a 15-year-old due to being a HumanPopsicle. {{Inverted}} with Red Arrow and Jim Harper, since the former is technically older, while the latter was force grown to appear older.
* BornAsAnAdult: He was force grown to look 15 by the time he was fully created.
* CharacterDevelopment: He goes from a hot-tempered, disrespectful sidekick before turning solo to a self-hating hero with a ton of CloningBlues to a happier, nicer, and more adjusted man, business owner, and father.
* ClipboardOfAuthority: PlayedForLaughs, as he treats his Bowhunter Security Clipboard as SeriousBusiness, deliberately flipping through it to annoy Dick, and later his documents on the clipboard allow him to stop Brick's scheme to steal Goode Goggles, as Brick's men are not the ones listed on the clipboard, and he even uses it as an ImprovisedWeapon to take out Brick.
* ClonesArePeopleToo: Even after finding out he was a clone, he eventually got married and had a daughter.
* CloningBlues: The Roy seen throughout season 1 is a clone, and his existential angst about this revelation has nearly destroyed him by the beginning of season 2. Luckily, Cheshire steps in to save him from himself. Come Season 3 he started going by "Will" to further cement he's his own person and not a knock off of Roy Harper.
* DarkIsNotEvil: His "Red Arrow" outfit is mostly black. Ultimately played with when it's discovered he's TheMole; he wasn't doing it on purpose and thought he was the good guy.
* DatingCatwoman: With Cheshire.
* DeadpanSnarker: Like Wally, more deadpan than snarky. The snarkiness becomes more playful in Season 3.
* DecompositeCharacter: Once Arsenal shows up. They borrow different elements from the original comic book Speedy, who has gone by both Red Arrow and Arsenal, does not have a clone, and is the father of Lian by Cheshire.
* DisappearedDad: {{Justified|Trope}} and {{downplayed|Trope}}, to Lian. For the former, Cheshire willingly didn't inform him about being pregnant because his obsession with finding Speedy left little for him to be with his loved ones, so he couldn't properly take care of a baby. For the latter, it was roughly a year before he found he was a father and after so, he began taking his parental roles seriously.
* EvilRedhead: {{Enforced|Trope}}. Red Arrow turns out to be the clone of the original Roy Harper and was programmed by the Light to infiltrate the Justice League.
* ExpressiveMask: His DominoMask can show a variety of expressions.
* FashionableAsymmetry: Roy's Red Arrow outfit is nearly the same, except for the gloves: His left arm has a longer gloves with holes, while he has shorter glove, with no holes, on his hand. This actually serves a purpose; it acts as an arm guard, to prevent Roy from hitting his own arm with the string of his bow when firing.
* FieryRedhead: A short-tempered and judgmental redhead. [[TookALevelInKindness He gets better]].
* FingerlessGloves: Wears them in his Red Arrow gear.
* {{Foil}}: To Arsenal. Both are presented as {{Jerkass}}es whose main redeeming trait is that they're still fighting on the good team. They each start with an obsessive and selfish personality that serves as their {{fatal flaw}}s. However, Red Arrow represents Arsenal had he took a better path, instead curbing his extremely negative traits, becoming a kind friend and a loving father. Arsenal, on the other hand, represents Red Arrow if he remained on the same path, as he only becomes an even [[TookALevelInJerkass bigger jerk]] who values RevengeBeforeReason, alienates others, and acts in a completely unscrupulous manner.
* FormerlyFit: Subverted in Season 2, where he was less fit because he wasn't taking care of himself and had lost weight and muscle tone. Defied in Season 3, where his weight gain is seen as an improvement to his health since he's back to the competent fighting form he had in Season 1 even if he's not as sculpted as before.
* GoodIsNotNice: He's a hero, but is a jerk to his mentor, his teammates, and ''even'' the people he's rescuing. Averted in Season 3 where he's become a legit NiceGuy.
* GoodParents: Knowing he had a daughter who needed him, Roy immediately got his act together and eventually retired to be a dad. Season 3 shows this in full force, as Will now owns and runs a successful private security company and prioritizes getting home in time to have dinner with Lian. Considering Jade left them, he's probably working harder to make up for her absence and give Lian enough love for two parents.
* GutturalGrowler: Goes into this during his addiction problem in "Salvage". It also makes him sound like [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Alucard]].
* HeroicBSOD: After finding out he was both TheMole and a clone of the original Speedy. It lasts a good five years.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: After finding out he was a clone. Specifically shown in "Salvage" of how much he comes to hate himself. He's gotten over it after making his own identity as Will Harper.
* HonoraryTrueCompanion: He's TrueCompanions with the Team's three founders and was part of the Team for about two weeks in-series time.
* HumblePie: It's one thing to find out you're a clone. It's another to find out that the mole you've been looking for all this time is [[TomatoInTheMirror YOU]].
* TheGadfly: He enjoys playing up his dad humor to mess with people, such as cheerfully telling Dick, Roy and Jim to buckle up in his car and then unnecessarily revealing his usual crew are all suffering from "Explosive diarrhea." When Roy complains that's TooMuchInformation, Will happily snarks they ''did'' ask him why he needed help. Earlier, he messes with Dick by pretending to check his schedule to see if he'll have time to help with his mission, to which Dick flatly responds he knows Will's doing it on purpose.
* IneffectualLoner: He sets himself apart from the rest of the Team, but manages to do well fighting alongside them nonetheless.
* InsistentTerminology: He's no longer "Roy", but "Will". Though he didn't seem particularly angry when Dick mistakenly called him his old name out of habit, he did get some snarky revenge afterwards.
-->'''Dick:''' Hey, Roy! I mean, Will... Will! Sorry, still not used to it.
-->'''Will:''' Well, Richard... I mean, Dick, who are you here to recruit this time?
* ItsAllAboutMe: Shows a lot of this into the first season, but grows out of it in the second season.
* IWillFindYou: Non-romantic version. He spent most of the five-year time skip searching for the original Roy Harper, [[{{Determinator}} even as everyone else gave up.]]
* IWillWaitForYou: Come Season 3 Cheshire has essentially walked out on him and Lian because she believes she's no good for them and will always be a villain first and foremost. Will clearly doesn't believe that and is shown to still love Jade and wants her to come home without trying to force her to do so.
* {{Jerkass}}: Often treats his friends and random bystanders like a jerk.
* JerkassBall: In "Insecurity", he is especially nasty to Artemis, Superboy and Miss Martian. This turned out to have been part of his subconscious Cadmus programming to get suspicion off him as the true mole while causing discord within the team.
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** In "Independence Day", Roy was right in calling out the mentors for promising their proteges to become full members of the Justice League, only to ''not'' take them to the actual headquarters and keep the truth of that from them.
** Also, while he's kind of an asshole to his old teammates in Season Two as he desperately hunts for the real Roy Harper, he is dismissive towards Wally in particular, asking why he's even present, which does hold some merit considering that Wally basically gave up being a superhero because...he wanted to focus on college and being Artemis's boyfriend. This really seems like a waste of talent, especially given Wally wanted to be Flash's sidekick so much that he deliberately recreated a very dangerous experiment of his, just so he could have superpowers too and Artemis is still doing hero work despite being in the exact same situation [[BadassNormal and she doesn't even have powers like he does.]]
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite his {{jerkass}} nature, he does genuinely care about his friends and secretly looks out for them. In "Performance" for instance, he shows real concern for Robin when he finds out the hero's become ill. Come Season 3, the "Heart Of Gold" aspect's been magnified so much "Jerk" doesn't apply to him anymore.
* KarmicJackpot: After being dealt a raw hand since he was created, from being born as a replacement to the original Roy Harper, being programmed into acting like an uptight asshole while used as a brainwashed stooge against his will, from running himself ragged to the point of wasting away into a shaggy mess, come Season 3 Will's ''finally'' gained a semblance of happiness. Even though Cheshire left him, Will's still taking better care of himself and Lian, is the proud owner of a successful business and earning his own money enough to afford his own house, is now on better terms with his friends than he ever was before, and has moved his life into a direction ''he'' wants instead of what others wanted for him.
* ManchurianAgent: For the Light, as he was made to infiltrate and dismantle the Justice League.
* MeaningfulName: "Roy" is Gaelic and English for "red" which is [[RedIsHeroic part of his attire as a hero]].
* MeaningfulRename:
** Changes his original name from Speedy to Red Arrow, signifying his path from sidekick to solo.
** Come ''Outsiders'', he goes by Will (from Roy's middle name, William) to differentiate himself from the original.
* NiceGuy: In Season 3, there’s nothing left of the uptight jerk he was in the past two seasons. Instead he’s a goofy, friendly dad.
* MiddleNameBasis: By the third season, he prefers to go by Will, which is his middle name of William. Understandable considering his issues of being the clone of the original Roy and wanting to be his own person.
* OlderAndWiser: He shows this in "Private Security" when ''he'' is the one who recognizes Dick is looking for Wally West substitute and needs to deal with the Markovian kids. Given Dick attended Will's intervention in Season 2, it shows how far he's grown as a person. It's a bit PlayedForLaughs when Will invokes this to which Dick responds, as a clone, Will isn't that old.
-->'''Will''': Hey, I'm older than Jim.
-->'''Jim''': But I'm prettier!
* OutOfFocus: He basically vanishes from the plot in Season 2 after rescuing the original Roy Harper. In Season 3 he was given at least one significant appearance per weekly episode drop, including his ADayInTheLimelight episode "Private Security." He slips back into this trope in the second half of the season, especially after Tara and Violet move out of the house.
* PapaWolf: Roy gets out of his funk in season 2 after realizing he has a daughter who needs him.
* PrimaryColorChampion: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. As Speedy, he wore a yellow sixteenth century-style hat complete with feather, yellow gloves, boots, belt and a red suit. And he was actually a clone of Roy Harper and was sent to become a mole for the Light.
* PutOnABus: In season 2, after finding the real Roy Harper, clone!Roy disappears from the series entirely besides a cameo at the finale.
* RageAgainstTheMentor: Goes on a tirade against Green Arrow and {{Rage Quit}}s in the very first episode of the show for being put on the "sidekick team", then spends much of season 1 operating alone as Red Arrow to prove to Ollie he's just as good. Inverted 5 years later in "Satisfaction", where after Ollie rages against himself for failing all his proteges, Roy ''reassures'' him that, despite their differences, he's always considered Ollie a good man.
* RageQuit: In the very first episode. Because of his outrage at being placed in "the Junior Justice League," he quits being Speedy.
* RedIsHeroic: He has red hair and a hero. His first superhero outfit was completely red, except the yellow hat; his second costume is both red and black.
* RetiredBadass: By ''Outsiders'', Will has retired from being a superhero altogether to raise his daughter. "Private Security" shows he definitely still has his "Badass" traits and has no problem suiting up again and helping his former teammates if asked or needed.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: In episode one, he defiantly declares himself to not be part of the Team.
* SecretKeeper: Knew Artemis wasn't Green Arrow's niece from the start, but only confronts Artemis about it when they're alone, and leaves it to her to tell her friends the truth.
* SettleForSibling: In season 3, after being abandoned by Jade, Will develops mutual attraction with her sister Artemis. [[spoiler:Subverted by the end of the season as they decide to remain friends]].
* SidekickGraduationsStick: Within the first six episodes, Roy changes his hero identity from Speedy to Red Arrow.
* SixthRanger: An older peer of the team who sometimes works with them but tries to be independent. His designation is also B06.
* SleevesAreForWimps: Doesn't wear any sleeves in his "Red Arrow" attire.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Red Arrow is serious, aloof and a loner who refuses to join the team, but he still cares about his friends.
* TomatoInTheMirror: UpToEleven. "I... I was the mole?" He's a clone of Roy Harper who replaced the original mere months after Roy became Green Arrow's sidekick, which means he was Speedy for ''years'', even longer than the ''original'' Speedy!
* TookALevelInCheerfulness: Seasons 1 and 2 Roy was a surly, generally unpleasant person who did care about his friends and was capable of being happy but rarely, if ever, smiled. Season 3 Will makes jokes and bad puns like the dad he is, likes to playfully mess with his friends, and can get easily flustered and embarrassed in certain situations without getting pissed off. In fact, come "Home Fires" and it's probably the first time he's ever let out a genuinely content laugh while having fun with Lian and the other kids.
* TookALevelInKindness:
** After recovering the original Speedy in Season 2 there is almost nothing of the old angry and resentful Roy, even giving Ollie a YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre speech. By ''Outsiders'', he's completely mellowed out and is a retired hero taking care of his kid and spending time with his sister-in-law Artemis (keep in mind that they used to dislike each other).
** His sense of humor and mellowness is more inline with his characterization from the comics.
* TraumaCongaLine: Finds out he was TheMole and [[CloningBlues a clone]], gets [[TheChase hunted like an animal]] by BrainwashedAndCrazy Leaguers, and then spends the next 5 years in a HeroicBSOD [[CassandraTruth while all his friends tell him he's gone crazy]].
* WeightWoe:
** When he first appears after the TimeSkip in the second season, his muscular frame appears somewhat malnourished as a result of neglecting his health due to his relentless hunt for the original Roy Harper. By the third season, he's regained his musculature but has also gained some pounds with a noticeable belly. This serves to highlight he's in a better place physically, mentally, and emotionally.
*** Played with in the audio episode "The Prize" where Will receives teasing for his dad bod, with Will noting he somehow gained weight despite being one of Cadmus's genetically modified clones. Captain Boomerang even dismissively calls Will "Captain Beer Belly," much to Will's frustration (and he still manages to take Boomerang down with one punch).
* YoungerThanHeLooks: He's 3, 8 by the TimeSkip, and has the physique of an 18-year-old.
* YouthfulFreckles: {{Averted|Trope}}. Notable that he's one of the few redheads without them, even in his younger days.

The second Blue Beetle. His death in a lab explosion indirectly led to Jaime finding the Scarab and becoming his successor.
----
* BadassBookworm: Kord was a brilliant inventor.
* BadassNormal: He never used the Scarab himself, just based his hero persona on it.
* BlueIsHeroic: True to his name, Blue Beetle wore blue. His pants and shirt were of a light blue color, with darker blue trunks. The top section of his shirt was adorned with a dark blue cutout that resembled bug's legs. He wore dark blue gloves and boots, and a belt with a golden buckle. To hide his face, he wore a dark blue cowl with yellow goggles.
* ColorCharacter: '''Blue''' Beetle.
* DyingMomentOfAwesome: Going head to head against both Deathstroke and Sportsmaster at the same time in order to keep the Light from getting the Scarab forever cements him as an incredible badass. Taking into account the fact that Jaime ended up getting it, this also means that the explosion which claimed his life probably wasn't deliberate on the part of the villains.
* GadgeteerGenius: Batgirl's dialogue in "Intervention" and everyone's initial belief that the Scarab was something he created implies that he was this.
* LegacyCharacter: The second ComicBook/BlueBeetle.
* NiceGuy: He was considered a good man.
* PosthumousCharacter: He died during the TimeSkip between seasons 1 and 2, making him this in relation to season 2 (he would have been alive during season 1, but he never appeared).
* SonicStunner: Apparently his weapon of choice, no doubt inspired by the Scarab armor's version.

Black Lightning, as his name would suggest, is a metahuman with powers over electricity, and Static's mentor. Initially a member of the Justice League, he eventually leaves to join the Nightwing's Team and seek redemption following his accidental murder of a young girl.
----
* TenMinuteRetirement: Leaves the Justice League to retire from superheroism altogether because of his guilt, but is then convinced by Nightwing to join his team for a one-off mission, and ultimately stays afterward. [[spoiler:Does it again at the end of the season. He becomes enraged and quit after finding out about the "Anti-Light" scheme, but later exposes Lex Luthor's deception from the rest of the world, with the help of Oracle and Cyborg]].
* AccidentalMurder: He kills a monster that he didn't know was actually a 14-year-old trafficked metahuman, to his [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone horror]].
* AdultFear: His guilt over killing a young girl is even worse when you consider he has two daughters himself.
* AmicableExes: With Lynn, as she allows him to see their daughters during the night and then they engage in a non-argumentative discussion.
* ArtEvolution: Originally he looked like his classic comic design, but in "Outsiders" it's been heavily reworked to resemble his [[Series/BlackLightning2018 concurrent live-action portrayal]].
* AscendedExtra: In his debut season, he only had minor appearances in five episodes with only one speaking role at the end. In ''Outsiders'', he's one of the main cast members as a founder of the team.
* TheAtoner: He leaves the Justice League to join Nightwing's Team over the guilt of accidentally killing one of the trafficked meta-human children.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: [[spoiler:He manages to figure out that Batman and some of the other heroes were having a secret coup to combat the light by picking up the pieces from past events, from Batman and the rest of the League's resignation to spotting a drone after being freed from Granny Goodness' grasp and rips into them apart with a long WhatTheHellHero speech.]]
* BaldOfAwesome: No hair? Check. A superhero who can generate amazing black lightning? Double check. He grows his hair out in Season 3 and develops a BadassBeard to boot.
* BigBrotherMentor: Offers himself as one to Static, should the younger hero need one.
* ColorCharacter: '''Black''' Lightning.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: His ''Outsiders'' look is obviously inspired by Creator/CressWilliams's portrayal of Black Lighting from the [[Series/BlackLightning2018 live-action show]] airing concurrently.
* CoolShades: To hide and/or protect his eyes, he wears small goggles with yellow lenses.
* DarkIsNotEvil: He wears a black and blue unitard with lightning motifs, blue sleeves, black pants, and black shoes.
* DramaPreservingHandicap: His [[PowerIncontinence inability to generate electricity]] prevents him from being able to help out more in combat, and makes Nightwing's Team's first mission much more difficult than it would've been had he been at his A-game.
* ElectricBlackGuy: The TropeMaker.
* TheHeart: For Nightwing's squad, he's always the one most willing to object to the morally ambiguous choices they sometimes face. [[spoiler:It's for this reason that Nightwing nominates him to be the new leader of the Justice League at the end of the season]].
* GlassCannon: For all the power his special lightning has, Black Lightning himself is still physically that of a human and thus is vulnerable to harm should he be hit.
* IAmNotLeftHanded: He regulates his lightning to knock his foes out, but he can amp it up considerably when needed. When Desolation boasts that his ordinary lightning blasts can't hurt her, he thanks her for the advice and hits her with enough power to knock her out on the spot.
* InterspeciesRomance: He (a metahuman) with Lynn and Helga (both humans). The former was his ex-wife and the latter became his love interest in season 3.
* MeaningfulName: Not only is he of African descent and have electrical powers, but he generates literal black lightning.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Black Lightning is immediately struck with guilt when he learns he just killed a 14-year-old girl who was trafficked and forcibly turned into a monster. It's what starts his quest for redemption by leaving the Justice League and joining Nightwing's Team.
* PapaWolf: He is very protective of children, having two young daughters himself. He quit the League over the guilt of accidentally killing a little girl, is devastated when eight metahuman children are teleported away before they can be rescued, and joins Nightwing's Team to fight back against metahuman child trafficking.
* PsychosomaticSuperpowerOutage: Due to his feelings of guilt, his ability to generate electricity severely diminishes by the time he joins Nightwing's Team. He gets it back when he sees Halo (supposedly) dead.
* RankUp: [[spoiler:Becomes the new leader of the Justice League at the end of season 3]].
* ShockAndAwe: With a distinctive black coloration. It's got some other unusual properties to it, since Livewire wasn't able to absorb it.
* TeamDad: He's the oldest member of Nightwing's Team and acts as a mentor of sorts to some of the younger members (particularly the newest recruits like Geo-Force, Halo, and Forager) when they're not on missions.
* WhatTheHellHero: Delivers a long and vicious speech to Batman, Nightwing, and the rest of the "anti-Light" conspiracy upon realizing they're secretly working together. He's absolutely enraged that they're sinking to the Light's level and lying about it, and tears them a new one upon realizing mid-speech that they've also been faking incidents for the Outsiders to tackle.
* WillfullyWeak: Black Lightning is one of Nightwing's Team's biggest heavy hitters, and his special brand of electricity could vaporize most of his enemies with ease. However, his refusal to kill means he holds back a great deal. When he's faced against Devastation, who boasts that she can withstand his electricity, he points just how lucky she is for that [[TheGlovesComeOff before electrocuting her in a single blast]]. He's strong enough to pin down even [[spoiler:''Metron'', a New God]].
* WouldntHurtAChild: He draws the line at kids getting hurt or worse, killed. One can imagine his horror when ''he'' ended up accidentally killing one.

Earth's third Green Lantern. When the League considers an expansion in "Agendas", the Flash puts his name forward - something Hal and John are both ''very'' opposed to.
----
* AlliterativeName: '''G'''uy '''G'''ardner.
* BigDamnHeroes: Saves a falling bus of children when Green Arrow, Red Arrow, and Black Canary all fail to stop it from falling.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He's such an annoying, pretentious jerk that you kinda wonder if the ring didn't make a mistake when it picked him to be a Green Lantern. It didn't, and Guy ''will'' unleash all the whoopass when necessary.
* EyelidPullTaunt: After the League left a Thanagarian Nth Metal refinery in "Influence", Guy pulled this towards Talak with the other members not happy.
* FingerlessGloves: He wears black fingerless gloves.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Guy's such an immature, obnoxious showboat, you'd be hard pressed to find a Leaguer who likes having him on the team.
* HiddenDepths: Despite his obnoxiousness and immaturity, he's shown to have the strongest willpower of the three Lanterns, not even flinching when [[spoiler:Granny unleashes the Ghost Dimension, causing incalculable pain to all that are caught in it]].
* ImaginationBasedSuperpower: Being a Green Lantern, his ring can create anything he can think of.
* {{Irony}}: Flash is the one who insists on inducting him on the League, but in the comics, he hated Gardner so much that he actually hoped that he ''died'' once.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Implied. Judging by Hal’s and John’s NoJustNoReaction at the idea of letting Guy join the League and Cassie’s own exclamation that he doesn’t like anyone one could reasonably say that he’s a bit difficult in terms of personality. However, Guy is a hero first, as seen when he saves a bus full of innocents. Nightwing also says that Guy is actually fond of Jaime Reyes in his own way (which is quite possibly a MythologyGag to the fact Guy was rather fond of Jaime in the comics as well), which is a telling thing for Cassie.
* {{Manchild}}: Quite possibly the only Leaguer who's as childish, if not ''even more'' than Captain Marvel.
* NoJustNoReaction: How Hal and John react to the proposal of adding Guy to the League, though they eventually add him to the League anyway. [[TheFriendNobodyLikes Quite a few Leaguers come to regret it]].
* ShamelessFanserviceGuy: You have to be in order to sing an ode to your own buttocks. Right in front of your teammates' vehicle, no less.
* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Guy has short red hair and green eyes.
* SleevesAreForWimps: He wears black pants and a black sleeveless shirt with a green front. He's noticeably the only Green Lantern whose uniform is not a full bodysuit.

Magician and teenage daughter of Giovanni Zatara. She joins the team in their search for Red Tornado. Zatanna later ends up joining the team in full after her father becomes the latest host of Doctor Fate. [[LoveAtFirstSight Robin takes]] [[ShipTease an immediate liking to her]].

Five years later, Zatanna has become a full-fledged member of the Justice League.
----
* AlliterativeName: '''Z'''atanna '''Z'''atara.
* AmicableExes: With Nightwing after the time skip. Occasionally implied to still be FriendsWithBenefits with him, given their rather flirtatious interactions.
* AttackReflector: In "Cornered", she uses a spell that reflects Despero's DeadlyGaze back at him.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: In "Misplaced", she wishes her [[OverprotectiveDad father]], Zatara, would give her some space. By the end of the episode, she gets what she wants, in the absolute ''worst'' way possible.
* BirdsOfAFeather: With Robin I, as they both are fond of BuffySpeak.
* BlackMagicianGirl: She's a spunky young girl who uses her magic to attack. Post-TimeSkip, she's more of a LadyOfBlackMagic, having grown much more competent with her magic and generally more mature in the five years between seasons.
* BoundAndGagged: In "Secrets" [[https://i.imgur.com/PWZNTAs.png Zatanna is bound and gagged by Harm]].
* BreakTheCutie: Zatanna suffered this in "Misplaced" after her father had became a permanent host for Dr. Fate.
* BuffySpeak: It requires closed captions to see what she's saying when casting a spell, and most of them are this Trope. For example: "Etativel taht ssorg gniht."
* CharacterFocus: Shares the spotlight with Artemis in "Secrets".
* CombatStilettos: Averted in this incarnation of the character. She wears square-heeled boots which are practical enough for battle. Lampshaded in "Secrets" when she magically changes them into flat sole boots during a chase scene.
--> '''Zatanna''': Okay, these boots? Adorable, but for a chase sequence? ''Lacticarp raewtoof won!'' (Practical footwear now!)
* CostumeEvolution: Her outfit remains basically the same when she's older, but now [[FanservicePack shows cleavage]].
* CuteWitch: Even wears a "traditional" witch costume for Halloween.
* DeadpanSnarker: A more subtle variant compared to Artemis and the boys.
* DemotedToExtra: In Season 2, courtesy of graduating from the team in favor of the Justice League. That being said, she still plays a major role in a few episodes, notably in "Misplaced" and "Intervention".
* DeusExitMachina: In "Cornered" Despero tries to do this trope by paralyzing her with his DeadlyGaze as soon as he sees her. It was a good idea too; as soon as Miss Martian wakes her up, Zatanna possesses Mal Duncan in about half a second and then renders Despero, who had spent the entire episode effortlessly [[CurbStompBattle Curb Stomping]] Captain Marvel and Superboy, helpless with one spell.
* ElementalPowers: As part of her VancianMagic. She can employ any element she likes, be it [[AnIcePerson ice]], [[MakingASplash water]] or [[PlayingWithFire fire]].
* {{Flight}}: Adds this ability to her magical portfolio in Season 2. She can either fly under her own power or use InstantRunes as makeshift levitating platforms, the latter being a technique she inherited from her father.
* FriendsWithBenefits: Implied with Nightwing, given the sensual manner she kisses him on his birthday.
* FunctionalMagic: She got her magicking from her father. It's Rule Magic, that requires the spells to be said backwards.
* GlassCannon: Zatanna can usually render a target helpless in half a second if she can cast a spell before they can stop her. Keyword being "if", since magic is her only source of both offense and defense, and she's pretty much helpless in a physical fight.
* HotWitch: Her outfit for season 2 seems hell bent on emphasizing the fact, especially with its much lower neck line.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: As of Season 2, she is much more graceful, mature, and her spells have become more powerful.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Plays a pivotal role in Artemis infiltrating the Light as Tigress, courtesy of making the glamour charm that masks her appearance. Despite this, she isn't let in on the larger plan until much later, with Nightwing keeping her in the dark regarding the charm's true purpose.
* MsFanservice: In Season 2, when her hero outfit displays her buxom chest.
* MundaneUtility: Seems to know a lot of spells for quickly altering her own or others' clothing.
* PluckyGirl: Zatanna doesn't give up, ever. Not even her father suffering a DeathOfPersonality due to taking on Doctor Fate's identity keeps her down for long.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: She has black hair, pale skin, and is considered beautiful.
* RealNameAsAnAlias: "Zatanna" is both her real name and her superhero codename.
* ShoutOutToShakespeare: Her go-to spell for creating bursts of fire is [[Theatre/{{Macbeth}} "Erif nrub, nordluac elbbub!"]].
* SidekickGraduationsStick: She's left the team and has become a member of the Justice League in-between seasons.
* SixthRanger: Though initially a GuestStarPartyMember in "Humanity" and "Secrets", she becomes this at the end of "Misplaced".
* SquishyWizard: Even more so than Miss Martian, as she has to actually speak all of her spells, doesn't have stealth or mobility, and is apparently the shortest on the team.
* TookALevelInBadass: Not really accustomed to being a superhero when she first joins the team, and generally tends to play a support role in battle, but over the course of the season she steadily grows more and more competent and creative in the use of her magic. Come Season 2, she's become even ''more'' powerful, outclassing even most of her fellow Justice League members.
* TownGirls: The Neither to Miss Martian's Femme and Artemis's Butch.
* TruerToTheText: Originally, Zatanna was a teenager when she started out, with the DCAU starting the trend of her being around the same age was the rest of the League, including being RetCanon to the comics. Here, she starts out as a teenager like her original counterpart.
* VancianMagic: She has to memorize each spell individually and casting each spell exhausts her. The only thing non-Vancian is that she doesn't forget the spells after she casts them.
* WarriorTherapist: To Artemis in "Secrets", though Artemis refuses to heed her advice concerning bad secrets.
* WeakButSkilled: In the beginning, as she's an inexperienced magician but her spells really help out the team in battle.
* YoungerAndHipper: Zatanna in the modern-day comics is about the same age as Bruce Wayne; the two having been {{Retconned}} into being ChildhoodFriends (which had originated from the DCAU), as well as her being an occasional LoveInterest for him. This version of her is made a contemporary of Dick Grayson instead, making her almost two decades younger than Bruce in this series, as well as shifting her status as a friend and occasional LoveInterest to Dick as well. However, it's been brought up by Creator/GregWeisman that Zatanna was originally introduced into the comics as a teenager in the '60s, when Dick Grayson was still a teenager, too. Zatanna was simply allowed to "grow up" faster than Dick, due to becoming the universe's de facto magician after her father died, while Dick must always be younger than Batman. He also noted that there are very few cases of a superhero legacy between a parent and child, and that by not taking advantage of Giovanni and Zatanna Zatara's relationship, the show would have lost something.

Sidekick of ComicBook/{{Icon}}. She and Icon debuted in an earlier episode dealing with the Injustice League's monster plants, along with other superheroes around the world. They intermittently appeared in later episodes, leading to Icon's induction into the Justice League and Rocket joining the Team.

Five years later, Rocket has become a full-fledged member of the Justice League.
----
* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: By ''Outsiders'', she's an ActionMom at the age of 22.
* ActionMom: As of Season 3, she has a son and is still a member of the League.
* AmicableExes: With Nightwing after the time skip.
* AscendedFangirl: In "Usual Suspects" she says that sidekicks like Aqualad, Kid Flash and Robin were her inspiration. And now, she is one of their teammates and, at one point, dated Robin.
* AudienceSurrogate: {{Justified|Trope}} since she was the newbie in the last parts of season one.
* BabiesEverAfter: The tie-in comics for the TimeSkip reveals that at some point she had a son.
* BarrierWarrior: She can create force fields. They're pretty powerful, too considering they can hold a mind-controlled ''Wonder Woman''.
* ChekhovsGunman: She appeared in the background of a few episodes before Icon's induction into the League and her joining the Team.
* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: Rocket has no innate powers but can draw upon an alien belt for flight and energy barriers.
* DeadpanSnarker: She's snarky even in the heat of battle.
* DemotedToExtra: In Season 2, her screen-time is even less.
* EnergyAbsorption: Her barriers only get stronger when kinetic energy is applied. She demonstrates and explains this when she traps Wonder Woman in one.
* EleventhHourRanger: Joins the team in the second-to-last episode of the first season. By the time the [[TimeSkip second season starts]], she's already joined the Justice League.
* {{Flight}}: Part of her powerset.
* HappilyMarried: Or engaged. Even has a bridal shower in "Satisfaction".
* IsItAlwaysLikeThis: Asked pretty much word-for-word when she joins the Team.

* SassyBlackWoman: A milder example than most people who fall under the trope, but she still fits the bill.
* SidekickGraduationsStick: Joined the Justice League as a superhero in her own right in-between seasons.
* WeaksauceWeakness: Maintaining a force bubble around someone else, whether to protect them or trap them, leaves her more or less a sitting duck.

->''"We stand ready."''

Aqualad is an Atlantean who, through his own skills with water manipulation and focus, earned the right to take on the role of junior partner of Justice League member Aquaman. Although somewhat hesitant in regards to listening to Speedy's rant about them needing to branch out, he soon begins to discover that it may actually be for the better. Somewhat stoic, he soon becomes the team's voice of reason when it comes to dealing with obstacles, whether they be friend or foe.

During the five-year gap between seasons Kaldur joins his father, Black Manta, following the death of Tula during a mission after joining the Team as Aquagirl. Tula's death, along the revelation that Aquaman had kept the identity of his biological father from him, apparently drives Aqualad to betray the Team and become Black Manta II.

By ''Outsiders'', Kaldur has succeeded Orin's place as Aquaman and has joined the Justice League.
----
* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: As a result of living under water all his life, he's developed a resistance to jellyfish venom.
* AffirmativeActionLegacy: Becomes the new Aquaman in ''Outsiders'', succeeding King Orin.
* AmbiguouslyGay: [[https://www.bleedingcool.com/2013/08/16/could-we-have-had-a-gay-aqualad/ Is not straight according]] to WordOfGod, and this is actually followed through in the official DC comics continuity. Rocket kissed him on New Year's and WordOfGod is that they dated a bit afterward. Actually has enough HomoeroticSubtext to leave fans speculating for a while; it's not clear if he is gay and Tula [[IfItsYouItsOkay was an exception]] or if he's attracted to [[AmbiguouslyBi both men and women]]. [[spoiler:As of season 3 he has a boyfriend, and WordOfGod has confirmed him as bisexual or polysexual]].
* AnimalMotifs: He has eel tattoos on his arms, can generate [[PsychoElectricEel electricity]], and can conjure a giant eel made of water with his powers.
* AntiHero: In season 1 he's willing to hide from his friends there's a possible [[TheMole Mole]] on the team to keep them from turning on each other. In season 2 he's willing to put both his mentor and his friends in danger, and actively attack them, to protect his [[FakeDefector cover]].
* ApparentlyHumanMerfolk: Looks similar to a human being but hides his Atlantean traits when he is in public.
* TheApprentice: In "Downtime" it was shown that Aquaman was impressed with Kaldur and his friend Garth's bravery and offered them both the role of his apprentice. Garth refused, while Kaldur accepted and became Aqualad.
* ArchnemesisDad: Black Manta in season 1, though Kaldur doesn't know it at the time. Double subverted in season 2
* BadassArmFold: Best shown in the episode [[http://www.ksitetv.com/wp-content/gallery/secrets/345_678b084.jpg "Secrets."]].
* BadassInCharge: He's the official leader of the team.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Aqualad is often very caring and reasonable, but is terrifying when pushed the wrong way.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Primarily to Robin. When Black Canary points out that he's just as much a logical choice for leader, Kaldur gets a haunted look and says "But he is so young."
* BigBrotherMentor: To Robin and arguably, Superboy. Lampshaded by Miss Martian in "Infiltrator".
* TheBlank: During his BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind in "The Fix", but he gets his face back in the next scene thanks to Artemis telling him YouAreNotAlone.
* BreakTheBadass: Temporarily in "Failsafe".
* BrokenPedestal: Lagoon Boy used to idolize him.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: In season one, he's the second strongest member after Superboy... but he's whole a lot nicer than Superboy is.
* TheCameo: Shows up in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' to show up the Titans. While Superboy and Miss Martian also appear, Kaldur is the only one who speaks, likely because his voice actor, Khary Payton, also plays Titans regular Cyborg.
* CanonForeigner: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. He was made for the show, but DC liked him so much he was [[EarlyBirdCameo adapted to the comics before the show even aired,]] though there's very little similarity between the two of them, beyond their costume, power set, identity of biological father, and ethnicity. He was adapted into the Brightest Day and Teen Titans books, but he's since been wiped out of existence by the New 52 reboot-- finally reappearing more than two years later in ''Comicbook/TeenTitansRebirth''. He was, however, ported to the universes of ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueTheFlashpointParadox'' and ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo''.
* TheCaptain: Batman has been known to refer to "You and your team" when talking to Aqualad; in addition, he reports directly to Batman after the team completes missions. He becomes [[TheDragon a villainous example]] after his FaceHeelTurn. But see FakeDefector.
* TheChainsOfCommanding: Mentioned in "Drop Zone" and "Downtime" and fully explained in "Disordered".
* CharacterDevelopment: He first starts out as submissive in the first few episodes and later emerges as TheLeader of the RagtagBunchOfMisfits. He then goes on to become a [[TheMole mole]] in his villainous father's organization.
** And now he's the new Aquaman and the leader of the Justice League.
* ChildSoldiers: WordOfGod is, it's required for Atlanteans to enlist in military training until the age of 16.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: He had a longtime crush on his friend Tula. Unfortunately for him, she began a relationship with his best friend Garth during the time he was away.
* ConflictingLoyalty: In "Downtime" between Atlantis and the surface world.
* DarkIsNotEvil: His "evil" outfit in season 2 certainly makes him ''look'' more evil.
* DarkSkinnedBlond: And issue 14 of the tie in comics show that [[http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1ck67dMhA1qm0gd4o1_500.png he gets it from his mom]] (who amusingly enough [[CelebrityResemblance kind of looks like]] Music/{{Beyonce}}).
* DeadpanSnarker: His usual stoicism breaks at times to remind us he's still a teenager.
-->'''Kaldur:''' [[LeeroyJenkins Captain [Marvel], wait!]] ''(to himself)'' [[ShrugTake Hey, "Speed of Mercury".]]
* DefusingTheTykebomb: Early in season one he calms Superboy down and helps adjust to the world until Superboy gets with Miss Martian. In addition, its been stated by WordOfGod that Superboy is closest to Aqualad out of all of males in season 1.
* TheDragon: To Black Manta in Season 2. He turns out to be a DragonWithAnAgenda: He's still a good guy, and just using his father to get closer to the Light and their new partner.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: He's always walking around barefoot due to having webbed feet.
* DoggedNiceGuy: Towards Tula in "Downtime" until he got over it at the end of the episode
* DualWielding: He often solidifies water into two weapons he uses to attack.
* ElementalBaggage: Aqualad cannot create the water he telekinetically manipulates, it either comes from the pack on his back or a standing supply near by.
* EmotionsVsStoicism: He tends to stay on the stoic side. Has since went to the emotional side since his FaceHeelTurn. Only not, since he's a FakeDefector
* EvilCostumeSwitch: After joining his father and becoming Black Manta II, complete with a [[GoodHairEvilHair creepier haircut]].
* EvilFormerFriend: Subverted. It's all part of the plan.
* {{Expy}}: According to [[WordOfGod creator Greg Weisman]], Kaldur's design was inspired by ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings''' elves.
* EyeBeams: As Black Manta II.
* FaceHeelTurn: In Season 2, but it turns out he's a FakeDefector.
* FallenHero: In Season 2, but later subverted.
* FantasticRacism: Aqualad and other Atlanteans with non-human traits face discrimination from the Purifiers.
* FightsLikeANormal: Training with the team during season one.
* FreudianExcuse: His first love Tula was killed as a direct result of becoming involved with the Team, and he's been trying to hurt his own father for years because of the lies of a man whom he called both his king and his friend. This turns out to be a subversion; he's a FakeDefector.
* GuileHero: This and his levelheadedness is why he was chosen to be leader in the first season. He was also the one who started the plan to infiltrate the villains by pretending to be evil to get close to his father. Together only he, Wally, Artemis, Dick know of this ruse.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: So far: Aqualad's good, but then he's bad, then he's still good, then he might just be pretending to be good, then he actually is good. He was, however, GoodAllAlong.
* HalfHumanHybrid: His father is the human Black Manta, while his mother is an Atlantean.
* HeartbrokenBadass: After Tula chooses Garth over him. After her death in-between seasons, it's stated to be the catalyst for his (fake) FaceHeelTurn.
* HeroesWantRedheads: He had fallen in love with Tula, but unfortunately for him, she and Garth were already together (all three had been close friends).
* HeroicBastard: The result of a human/Atlantean non-marriage union.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: He doesn't believe in his leadership abilities until "Alpha Male". Made worse in "Failsafe", where he believes himself to be unfit to lead the team.
* HeroicSacrifice: Sacrifices himself in "Failsafe" to save Martian Manhunter, who eventually turns out to be the key to freeing everyone from the UnwinnableTrainingSimulation they're trapped in.
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Had to make several compromising choices undercover as Black Manta's henchman.
* IShouldHaveBeenBetter: He wishes he'd acted more like a leader than a soldier during "Failsafe".
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Wishes Tula and Garth the best together, as he wants Tula to be happy.
* ImportantHaircut: He has a normal haircut in season 1, but he gets a shorter hair style in season 2.
* ImpossiblyCoolWeapon: He wields a pair of waterbearers that he can use to augment his powers and and create a variety of water weapons.
* InASingleBound: He does this a few times in the episodes like "Humanity". Although he doesn't jump as high and does not do it as much as Superboy has.
* JackOfAllStats: Definitely the most well-rounded member of the original Team. He's not as fast as [[FragileSpeedster Kid Flash]], as strong as [[LightningBruiser Superboy]] or as super-powered as [[SquishyWizard Miss Martian]], and he doesn't pack as many cool gadgets as [[BadassNormal Robin]] or [[ArcherArchetype Artemis]], but he's definitely more versatile than any of them. He's adept at strategy and hand-to-hand combat, he's got magic training, and his waterbearers can shape-shift into any weapon he needs. He's even more bruising after the TimeSkip, now that he's got magic, super strength and a weaponized power suit with missiles and freaking eyebeams.
* KickTheDog: Kills Artemis in "Depths". Soon subverted when it turns out they were just [[FakingTheDead faking her death]].
* KidHero: He is 16 years old in the first season.
* KubrickStare: He delivers a ''damn'' creepy look when he rises out of the water in "Depths".
* TheLeader: Type Levelheaded. The position is made official in "Drop Zone" and reaffirmed at the end of "Alpha Male".
** [[PlayingWithATrope Played With]] in "Disordered"; after his actions in "Failsafe", he doesn't believe himself to be an effective leader, yet he continues to be one since he doesn't want to burden Robin with the role.
** No longer true as of Season 2. However, his leadership qualities are what makes him a dangerous villain, and it's notable that he makes sure [[NoOneGetsLeftBehind all of his mooks have time to escape]].
** After rejoining the team after completing his mission, Nightwing immediately defers leadership back to Kaldur.
* LegacyCharacter: As Black Manta II, and later, Aquaman.
* LickedByTheDog: In "Darkest", Sphere rolls right up to him and doesn't even sound the alarm after he gives her a pet, like in old times. This makes him feel even more guilty about blowing up Mount Justice in order to secure his cover.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Aquaman, his parents, and Black Manta all know that Black Manta is his biological father, something Kaldur himself is not aware of until ''Legacy''.
* LoveHurts: Kaldur's first love Tula wound up falling for his best friend, Garth. Making matters worse, she later died, and Kaldur's mindscape in ''Invasion'' makes it clear that he still has feelings for her. By ''Outsiders'', however, he's managed to move on and found love with Wynnde.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: Subverted, as he's a FakeDefector.
* LoveTriangle: In one between him, his crush Tula and his good friend Garth.
* LukeIAmYourFather: He's the son of Aquaman's nemesis, Black Manta.
* MasterActor: Gives a stunning RageAgainstTheMentor speech to Aquaman, regularly drops [[DoubleMeaning messages to the others involved in his deception disguised as badass threats]] and convinces everyone he actually killed Artemis with a little sleight of hand.
** He is so convincing that even Wally, who is in on the plan, is concerned that Aqualad might really be an evil ''triple'' agent playing Nightwing.
* MagicKnight: His powers come from Atlantean magic, but his fighting style is considerably more hands-on than other Atlantean magicians.
* MeaningfulName:
** His name is an Atlantean spin on his adoptive father's name, Calvin Durham.
** In Icelandic his name means "cool".
* MeaningfulRename: Becomes Black Manta II after his [[FakeDefector fake]] FaceHeelTurn, as he's the son of Black Manta.
* MindRape: M'gann rips the memories out of his mind and leaves him catatonic in "Before the Dawn".
* TheMole: Infiltrated Black Manta's organization to get intel on the Light.
* MoleInCharge: Not in charge, but he is TheDragon to Black Manta.
* MorphWeapon: His waterbearers have a ''lot'' of different uses, thus becoming an ImpossiblyCoolWeapon.
* MrExposition: Whenever a new face pops up that the audience doesn't know, he's usually the one to give the exposition on who they are.
** He actually explains all the reasons for his apparent FaceHeelTurn before the end of his first appearance as a villain in "Alienated".
* MultiMeleeMaster: His waterbearers can turn into swords, maces, hammers, bats and whips.
* NervesOfSteel: Comes along with the stoic part.
** What else do you call pretending to be evil in order to infiltrate some very powerful enemies, incurring the wrath of two equally powerful superhero teams, fending off attacks from his former friends, keeping his cool and sanity surrounded by villains, all the while making on-the-fly decisions that at once cement his position amongst his foes and minimize casualties amongst his friends to maintain his cover as a mole?
** In "Complications," while pretending to be an EmptyShell, Chesire hurls a sai at him (which is blocked at the last second by Miss Martian) and Aqualad doesn't so much as blink.
* NiceGuy: The nicest member on the team after Miss Martian.
* NotSoStoic: Sometimes, Kaldur's stoicism gives way to snark.
-->'''Red Arrow''' (after Kaldur asks if he needs help): Please. I don't need help from the Junior Justice League.
-->'''Aqualad''': Just our computers.
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Took Deathstroke out of the picture offscreen, allowing Miss Martian to take his place in "Summit".
* {{Omniglot}}: He can speak English, Atlantean, and a little bit of Greek.
* OnlySaneMan: Compared to most of team early in the first season.
* OverlordJr: As part of his [[TheMole infiltration of the Light]], he plays this part to his father, Black Manta.
* PoweredArmor: Kaldur's Black Manta uniform in season two. It gives Kaldur missile launchers and EyeBeams on top of the Atlantean abilities [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman his father lacks]].
* PowerGlows: His tattoos glow blue when he uses his powers.
* PowerTattoo: Has eel tattoos on his arms.
* APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil: Subverted, that's what everyone is supposed to believe.
* RageAgainstTheMentor: Calls out Aquaman for hiding the identity of his true father. In "Alienated" it was probably part of the ruse, but in ''Legacy'', he was genuinely hurt and angered.
-->'''Aquaman''': Perhaps you should discuss this with your parents.\\
'''Aqualad''': I am discussing it with ''you.''
* RankUp: Goes from Aquaman's sidekick to taking up the mantle himself between seasons 2 and 3, and becomes leader of the League after that.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives a short but sweet one to Vandal Savage on his chronic case of UnderestimatingBadassery, punctuated by a BigDamnHeroes moment.
* RedeemingReplacement: He is in fact a deep cover agent.
* RedIsHeroic: His shirt is red and he's one of the good guys.
* RedOniBlueOni: In Season 1, Kaldur has this dynamic with both Red Arrow and Superboy, being the stoic and cool-headed blue to their HotBlooded and ill-tempered red.
* RousingSpeech: Aqualad, Robin and Kid Flash to give one in "Misplaced" to kids who can help pick up the slack after all the adults going missing.
* SadisticChoice: Gives one to Superboy and Nightwing after his FaceHeelTurn, either fight him and try to bring him in or disarm a bomb that could kill a lot of Kroloteans and the other heroes in the base. The worst part is they couldn't even disarm the bomb. He was trying to warn Nightwing about the bomb without blowing his cover.
* ScaryBlackMan: Played with. Despite his stature and [[BadassBaritone voice]] making him somewhat intimidating, he's a straight-up NiceGuy -- but in "Depths," he's well and truly terrifying.
* SecretTestOfCharacter:
** He was put through this by his [[ProperlyParanoid father, Black Manta]]. Kaldur "kills" Artemis, but what really earns him Black Manta's trust is that he ''didn't take credit'' for the rocket he was sent to destroy blowing up in an apparent fluke accident.
** Again in "Darkest" where Kaldur blows up Mount Justice to prove his loyalty to The Light and their partner.
* ShapingYourAttacks: In addition to shaping water into weapons, Kaldur is capable of fashioning water into the shapes of attacking sea creatures, as seen in "Targets."
* ShirtlessScene: In "Welcome to Happy Harbor" and "Infiltrator".
* SleevesAreForWimps: His uniform is a skintight suit that leaves his arms bare.
* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: He was on the receiving end of this by Red Arrow.
* SpockSpeak: Without the antisocial stigma.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Has his mother's hair color, eyes and Atlantean traits but physically looks like his father.
* SuddenSequelHeelSyndrome: See SuperDickery below.
* SuperDickery: Shows up as an [[HiddenHeartOfGold apparent villain]] out for revenge against all his friends in the early episodes of season 2. It's eventually revealed he's actually a [[TheMole mole]] for the Team.
* TheStoic: He's calm, soft-spoken, and doesn't express emotion all that much.
* TheStrategist: His plan to turn the Light and the Reach against each other worked to near-perfection. Vandal Savage, quite possibly the best strategist in the series, states that Kaldur had done more damage to his plans in a few minutes than anyone had in 50 millennia.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: One of the tallest of the team, dark skinned, and has been known to very attractive (i.e. Rocket in season one).
* TaughtByExperience: He, along with the other original members of the Team, became exceptionally more skilled over the 5 year time skip.
* TeamDad: Stated as such by Miss Martian. Aqualad often keeps the others in line, and even literally acts like an older brother/mentor to both Superboy and Robin.
* TechnicianVSPerformer: Kaldur is the technician to Superboy's performer and the perfomer in contrast to Robin's technician.
* ThickerThanWater: Claims to feel this way in Season 2.
* TranquilFury: Kaldur is the definition of this trope until season two, though that is likely an act.
* TwoGuysAndAGirl: Had this dynamic with Garth and Tula. He has feelings for Tula, but Garth and Tula start dating while Aqualad is on the surface.
* UndyingLoyalty: After "Alpha Male" Kaldur stands up and defends his team mates no matter what. Subverted after his FaceHeelTurn, though it's arguably because he felt the team betrayed him when Tula died. Then double subverted when it turns out he's been a FakeDefector all along.
* VillainousLineage: Goes evil after finding out his father is Black Manta. Later subverted when it's revealed he's actually a [[TheMole mole]].
* VillainousWidowsPeak: Averted. Subverted in season 2.
* WarriorTherapist: Shades of this when he first meets Superboy.
* WeakButSkilled: His magic is quite weak compared to his friends Garth and Tula. Because of his training under Aquaman though, he's far superior in physical combat. When compared to other members of the Team he floats in between because he has super strength, great agility and other above average abilities and skills, but is outdone by other members of the team in a few of them.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In-universe. Both Kaldur and Garth, the comics' original Aqualad, were offered the chance to be Aquaman's sidekick. Kaldur accepted; Garth declined, choosing to further his magic studies. {{Lampshaded}} when Kaldur asks Garth if he ever wonders what would have happened if he'd become Aqualad instead.
* WhiteSheep: He is a hero while his father Black Manta is a villain. Double subverted in Season 2.
* WouldHitAGirl: Has no problem punching out female villains. Just ask Killer Frost.
* YouAreNotAlone: In "Fix", Artemis tells him this in his ruined mindscape while suffering through the MindRape placed on him. Artemis states a word in Atlantean ("symbiosi") to show that she and M'gann want to help him.
* YoungAndInCharge: By ''Outsiders'', he's the leader of the Justice League, full of experienced members far older than him, at ''23''.

* CompositeCharacter: Not of J'onn himself, but of his family. Earth-16's versions of Martian Manhunter and Miss Martian are a biologically related uncle and niece with Miss Martian being his sister's daughter, while in the comics they treat each other as family in an adoptive sense. No other version of J'onn is known to have a sister, only a brother, and bother of Miss Martian's parents are good White Martians like her. This version of M'gann's mother retains most of the original characters qualities, except she is a Green Martian and takes the place of J'onn's brother Ma'alefa'ak.

* HouseHusband: Because Jade isn't around to be the mom, Will takes it upon himself to be the father Lian needs by himself. Notably, his nice house (that he shares with Artemis) is from his pockets, thanks to his successful Bowhunter Security business. This is lampshaded in "Home Fires", where at the family playdate, Will is one of only two dads in the company of Iris, Mera, Lynn, Raquel, Karen and Lois, and expresses great relief when John "Red Tornado" Smith shows up, lamenting how hard it is being the only dad around.
