Line 29:
** Mercy Graves does not get many opportunities to show them off, but she has an impressive array of martial skills.
* [[Acquitted Too Late]]: When Superman and Lois Lane have found the proof to exonerate a man on death-row, they find that the governor is not at home because he decided to attend the execution personally, and Lois laments that they barely had time for him to make the phone call stopping the execution. Kenny is already in the gas chamber and the switch had already been thrown. {{spoiler|[[Subverted Trope|It is a good thing Superman]] [[Big Damn Hero|was able to save him anyway]].}}
* [[Adaptational Weakling]]: Superman, compared to the comics. He's still super, but not the [[Physical God|crazy]] [[New Powers as the Plot Demands|levels]] the character often reaches in his comics. Unlike the comics, these powers would remain consistent throughout the series -- flight, [[Super Strength]], X-ray vision, and heat vision-- complete in the ''[[Batman Beyond]]'' episode when Terry has to outfly {{spoiler|a brainwashed Kal-El}}.
* [[Affably Evil]]:
** Lex Luthor, who hides his villainy beneath a thin veneer of courtesy and suave sophistication.
