40	!!Tropes in his works include:
41	* AuthorAppeal: Some of the themes present in many of his works are family, memory, and honor. Oh, and death.
42	** His works will typically include at least one instance of a tough, feisty, powerful woman and a [[AmazonChaser man who adores her]], usually ending with the two turning into a BattleCouple.
43	** All three of the works he directed so far have at least one skeleton woman among the cast, usually taking inspiration from José Guadalupe Posada's depiction of ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Calavera_Catrina La Calavera Catrina.]]''
44	** Speaking of skeletons, expect to see a number of them or skulls that might reach triple digits. Jorge himself has even joked about this occasionally on Twitter.
45	** Expect a character to have lost one or more limbs and then have a weapon (or other cool but strange replacement) for a prosthetic.
46	** Jorge also seems to be a fan of the LoveTriangle trope as it is a near guarantee that ''at least'' one will appear per work.
47	* CreatorCouple: With his beloved wife and muse Sandra Equihua who provides character designs, voice work, and overall inspiration.
48	* ProductionPosse: Besides his wife, he works with at least one of the following people in his work: [[WesternAnimation/TheWeekenders Doug]] [[WesternAnimation/DaveTheBarbarian Lang]] [[WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfPussInBoots Dale]], Creator/CarlosAlazraqui, Creator/EricBauza, Creator/GreyDeLisle, Creator/HectorElizondo, Creator/CandiMilo, and Creator/DannyTrejo.
49	* SharedUniverse: According to him, ''The Book of Life'', ''El Tigre'', ''Maya and the Three'', and even his Disney pilot ''Carmen Got Expelled'' all take place in the same universe.
50	* WriteWhatYouKnow: Many of his works showcase Mexican culture, as he himself is Mexican.
