* AuthorAppeal: Kyle Higgins, Ryan Parrott and Mat Groom have all worked and collaborated on ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' comics (and in the case of Higgins and Groom, both have worked on Marvel's ''Franchise/{{Ultraman}}'' comics). This has influenced the Massive-Verse, in particular the designs of most of the characters (Rogue Sun is the only exception, being more knight-themed and instead drawing inspiration from superheroes Parrott was a fan of like ComicBook/GhostRider and Darkhawk). The ''Sentai'' influence in particular is obvious with the Radiants and Inferno Girl Red and her allies.

Only one site says it's involving the other titles, and the video is kinda vague, so best to not assume it's a crossover with the other titles for now.

My bad, misremembered. It is apparently explicitly taking place across the Massive-Verse. They just haven't said which titles.

* Inferno Girl Red I had one and it's still maintained even once she stopped being active. Even the reader doesn't initially know who she is.
* Inferno Girl Red II has one but her mum knows. The head of her school also finds out thanks to security cameras.
* Dead Lucky is the first character to entirely avert one once becoming a superhero. She had one as an unnamed masked vigilante, but once she becomes a superhero (and enforcer for Morrow Tech), her powers are publicly revealed. Weirdly enough, ''this'' is when she adopts a superhero name.

* SecretIdentity:
** Nathan and Marshall as Radiant Black have one, but people seem to realise there's more than one. Two local cops immediately know who Radiant Black is, the other Radiants either figure them out or are told quickly, and Shift figures it out because they hid it poorly. Some writers they work with are also let in on it.
** Radiant Red has one... that her enemies know, as her bank robberies were easy to track for criminals. Before that, the other Radiants and her fiancé were in the know. She eventually [[spoiler: confesses to her crimes]], so it's not really an issue anymore.
** Radiant Pink pulled double duty to keep hers, with Eva being a separate Twitch streamer to Radiant Pink, with her even doing a "collaboration" at one point between them. The other Radiants knew, as did her best friend. However, once she gets into trouble with paramedic Kelly, she also finds because Eva gets flustered and unmasks in a panic.
** The Rogue Suns have secret identities... to the general public. The majority of other characters, whether they be families of the Rogue Suns or their ''villains'', know and use it against them. The only villain who doesn't know is Billy Bludmoon, the runt of his pack.
* Inferno Girl Red I had one and it's still maintained even once she stopped being active. Even the reader doesn't initially know who she is.
* Inferno Girl Red II has one but her mum knows. The head of her school also finds out thanks to security cameras.

* DaddyIssues: A common trend is characters having complicated relationships or views of their dads.
** Nathan Burnett seems particularly worried about what his dad thinks of him. His dad believes in hard work and paying your dues, and so Nathan feels he condescends to him in regards to not being able to make it in Hollywood.
** Marshall's dad left him when he was a kid and was abusive before that, and it's implied this is part of what led to him growing up a trouble maker.
** Marcus Bell's father was an abusive drunk whose parenting it's implied led to Marcus being an absentee dad and jerkass. But he still respects that his father saved the world as Rogue Sun a few times.
** Dylan Siegel ''hates'' his father, the aforementioned Marcus, with a fiery passion and will take any opportunity to shit on him or his memory. Marcus abandoned Dylan and his mother when Dylan was 2, and Dylan grew up a resentful delinquent.
** Wendell is himself an absentee dad because he wanted desperately to provide for his family. As a result, he wasn't there for his daughter, who he grew apart from by the time she was an adult, since he doesn't really know her anymore.
** Cássia Costa grew up without a dad, and her mum, Ana, had to make a lot of sacrifices to provide for her. She specifically brings up her complicated relationship with her father when talking to Thomas Park after seeing the tension between Thomas and ''his'' father.
