** Lucifer is this to Alastor, being able to counter everything the latter throws at him, as well as succeeding in [[spoiler:beating Adam]] where Alastor couldn't. Alastor only manages to even the odds by pressing at Lucifer's own insecurities, in particular his faded bond with Charlie.

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: In terms of how he treats the sinners [[MagicallyBindingContract under his contract]] compared to Valentino, specifically in regards his ownership of Husk's soul to Val's ownership of Angel's. While Husk is absolutely working for him against his will and none too happy about that, Alastor's only request of Husk is to act as the bartender, and Husk spends most of that time drinking as a perk of the job. Otherwise, Alastor appears not to care what Husk does day-to-day. Val, on the other hand, overworks Angel and abuses him physically, emotionally, and [[SexSlave sexually]]. While Alastor can be pressed into making pretty gruesome threats, it takes a lot to set him off.

Saying that someone has "a face for radio" is typically meant to be a StealthInsult that they are ugly, [[DontExplainTheJoke the joke being that you can't see someone's face on a radio broadcast]].

* ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated: Alastor had been inactive in Hell for seven years before he approached Charlie. Many of his fellow Overlords assumed he had died in one of the Exterminations. While Alastor never truly elaborates on why he was gone, he does find the rumors about his absence entertaining.
