* SaiGuy: The Grey Fox uses sai as her weapon of choice and it's strongly implied that she isn't shy about using them with deadly force. When she's recruited into the Danger Federation, this clashes with the Red Panda's preference towards ThouShaltNotKill. However, because the Grey Fox is his wife's best friend and she wants her on the team, the Red Panda equips her with what the Grey Fox names Stingers. They're described as the same size and weight as her sai, but pack an electric punch she can use to take down opponents non-lethally.

John would later refer to himself and the other heroes he works with as walking flags that are also supposed to be secret agents.

* QuantityVsQuality: The Mad Monkey's ability to control humans works based on how few or many baboons he has with him. When it's just his trusty Beauregarde to stimulate his powers, he can control human beings with relative ease. When multiple monkeys are present he has a potential army at his disposal, but is too overwhelmed by their presence to use his powers for anything else. "The Golden Idol" features the Red Panda releasing several baboons in proximity to the Monkey to break his hold over humans he had hypnotized. Another episode, "The Missing Link" features the Mad Monkey trying to achieve a middle-ground by combining several AwesomeButImpractical inventions to devolve humans into ape men that are stronger and more highly evolved than his baboons, but still low enough he can control an army of them unlike with full humans.

6. When the Red Panda is lost overseas during season seven, John is recruited to fill in as the Red Panda under Kit's tutelage. When he's finished with that role he rebrands himself as the Red Ensign and joins the Allied Super Services.
* BashBrothers: While initially hesitant when they're teamed up for the first time in "Barbarian at the Gates", John quickly becomes one of the very few other superheroes that the Red Panda has no issue whatsoever teaming up with. They get along well, operate similarly thanks to John having been trained by Kit, and together were able to stop a Nazi weather machine from freezing the North American continent and take down Tevas the Ubermensch.

Kit manages to talk him down enough that, when confronting the one who organized that event, Nightshade, he's able to terrify her into unconsciousness rather than kill her. However, he has ''no'' such restraint where Friedrich von Schlitz is concerned. In "The Gadget", when John, Kit, and the Red Panda are infiltrating an American military base they know von Schlitz is at, Kit flat out tells him that she doesn't trust him not to fly off the handle if faced with the Nazi.

!! The Grey Fox
The Flying Squirrel's best friend, the Grey Fox is a Japanese-Canadian female superhero based in in Vancouver prior to World War II. Despite being born in Canada, her Japanese heritage lands her on the wrong end of anti-Japanese paranoia. She spent time in a Japanese internment camp during the war until the Red Panda gets her released to join the Danger Federation at the Flying Squirrel's request.
* ActionGirl: A female superhero, just like the Flying Squirrel. Unlike Kit, the Grey Fox started solo and doesn't have the Red Panda's resources. However she's just as good as the Toronto Twosome when it comes to defending her city.
* TheDreaded: The Grey Fox makes as much, if not more, use of this trope than the Red Panda does. When she needs information, but lacks resources like the Red Panda's many agents, she goes to the worst bar she knows, lets the MassOhCrap sink in, makes her demands, roughs up anybody who argues, and usually gets what she wants soon after.
* SaiGuy: The Grey Fox uses sai as her weapon of choice and it's strongly implied that she isn't shy about using them with deadly force. When she's recruited into the Danger Federation, this clashes with the Red Panda's preference towards ThouShaltNotKill. However, because the Grey Fox is his wife's best friend and she wants her on the team, the Red Panda equips her with what the Grey Fox names Stingers. They're described as the same size and weight as her sai, but pack an electric punch she can use to take down opponents non-lethally.
