* ArbitrarySkepticism: Inverted when Jennifer gives Danielle a birthday present and informs the two-year-old that it's a magic object that will make her strong. Jessica has to confirm that it's just the kind of thing you tell small children. Then subverted when Thor sees it and identifies it as an object that summons "trickster gods". At least it doesn't make you strong.
* AtrociousAlias: Loan Shark. Apparently he meant it to be "Lone Shark", similar to 'lone wolf', but nobody realizes the spelling and thus frequently mistake him for a finance theft villain instead of a shark-themed one.
* BreatherEpisode: Issue #6 is a cozy domestic epilogue after Jessica solves the case, focusing on her and Luke setting up their daughter’s birthday party. However, it still concerns the heavy matter of Jessica’s PTSD.
* BackFromTheDead: As of ''Blind Spot'', [[spoiler:it turns out Jessica is not bulletproof. She was killed by a bullet to the head from Evil!Jared, but then resurrected by Good!Jared.]]
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor:
** Dia Sloane’s relationship became rocky because her boyfriend resented her having powers, [[spoiler:so she wished he could have powers too. He ended up becoming more cruel with them, not less.]]
** Jared was abusive, but regretted his bullying, and wished he could rid himself of his evil. [[spoiler:His new powers split him into good and evil halves, with the Evil Jared going on a misogynistic killing spree and the Good Jared following to undo his murders.]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Loan Shark is an enormous vicious villain with no reservations about killing Jones and Cage in their own home... until he sees they were setting up their daughter's birthday party and so retreats ashamedly.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Elsa Bloodstone uses an ''electric guitar'' as a weapon. Rock.
* JekyllAndHyde: Dia’s boyfriend Jared [[spoiler:split himself into good and evil halves with superpowers. When Evil!Jared is apprehended, Good!Jared is told they have to merge back together. He begs not to, wanting to live without his evil side, but Jessica explains that Good!Jared could just grow into another abusive dick if he doesn’t have the memories and experience in him leading him to regret seeking evil. As such, the two fuse back together once again into a single Jared.]]
* LeotardOfPower: In the framing story of "Blind Spot", Jessica has been chained to a chair and forced to wear a knockoff Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers) leotard. [[spoiler:After she escapes from Evil!Jared, she actually keeps the leotard on just so he can be seen being beaten down by her in it.]]
* LighterAndSofter: While the tone is still somber, the new Thompson run is noticeably less graphic than Bendis’s ''Alias'', with no sexual depictions, drug use, and with the swearing censored. However, there is still alcohol use and blood.
* NoticeThis: A comic book example. In the 2018 run, details about people and places are highlighted in the form of polaroids with descriptive text. Being an investigator made her see things that way and she says she can't turn it off. This is a carryover of the SherlockScan used in ''ComicBook/HawkeyeKateBishop'', a series Creator/BrianMichaelBendis liked so much that when he left Marvel, he personally asked Kelly Thompson to take over Jessica.

* HappilyAdopted: Averted with Jessica and her foster mother -- it's ''very'' clear that they really never liked one another, although Jessica still goes to her to hide her own daughter, Dani. Jessica's foster mother still tells her that if Dani's father, Luke Cage, ever shows up, she won't keep hiding Dani, because a) Luke is ''Dani's father'' and b) Luke is ''super strong and bulletproof''. When Luke shows up, Jessica's foster mother keeps her word and lets him go with Dani.

* WhereDaWhiteWomenAt: Jessica says to her daughter that being the product of an interracial relationship ''and'' two superheroes is enough to make her life hard. The new Power Man also had a problem with the original, her husband ComicBook/{{Luke Cage|HeroForHire}}, for dating a white woman.
