* SnapBack: Just prior to her commissionership, she had been a supporting character in ''[[ComicBook/LoisLane2019 Lois Lane]]'' as the Question (a move that was itself a SnapBack), during which she briefly mentioned that she had resigned from the GCPD to do so. And while its heavily implied that it was Nakano who brought Renee out of retirment, the exact circumstances involved in getting her back into the GCPD have so far not been explained.

A Japanese CrusadingWidower who wields a cursed sword that [[YourSoulIsMine consumes the souls]] of those slain by it. Tatsu Yamashiro is a deadly vigilante who once served under [[ComicBook/SuicideSquad Amanda Waller]], became a founding member of the [[ComicBook/BatmanAndTheOutsiders Outsiders]], joined the ComicBook/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica, and fought alongside the ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey. But somewhere down the line, Tatsu saved the life of a young Jace Fox who had been imprisoned and tortured in the Eastern European country of Markovia. Sympathizing with his desire to repent for past sins, she became his mentor and played a major part in molding him into the VigilanteMan he is today.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: While Tam was rescued by Luke in ''Comicbook/{{Batwing}}'', she never fully recovered from what Ratcatcher and Menace put her through which has taken a significant toll on her health. Even when she finally does snap out of her coma, Tam's motor skills have severely degraded and needs intense long-term physical therapy to regain any hope of being able to walk again.

* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: Jace Fox is this to Bruce Wayne much like fellow Bat-Successor [[WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond Terry McGinnis]] was. Where as Bruce comes from a respected and beloved OldMoney family, Jace is the son of a [[SelfMadeMan self-made entrepreneur]] and [[GadgeteerGenius inventor]] who is the subject of controversy over his NouveauRiche status. Where Bruce is defined by the tragedy that befell him and his parents at the hands of a random mugger, Jace is a former hedonist who is haunted by an incident ''he himself perpetuated'' during his youth which forced him into exile as a disgrace and is defined by his drive to [[TheAtoner atone for it]]. Where as Bruce's public persona is traditionally a RichIdiotWithNoDayJob, Jace prefers to [[SlummingIt get by in life like a regular person]] and has an immense distaste for the Ultra-Rich and more specifically [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney those who believe their wealth puts them above consequence.]] And where Bruce is incredibly stoic and grim under the cowl, Jace adopts a far more [[TheSnarkKnight sardonic persona]] during his vigilante endeavors and is prone to [[SirSwearsalot swearing]] and [[YouFightLikeACow talking shit during fights]].

* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu:
** After enduring an entire issue of being [[MindRape psychically tormented]] by a darkness-empowered Sinestro trying to coax him into [[PsychicAssistedSuicide commiting suicide]], Jace Fox not only channels enough HeroicWillpower to persevere through Thaal's mind games, he also proceeded to ''[[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown beat the shit out of the Lantern]] [[HoistByHisOwnPetard with the power of his own ring]]''. Just for comparison, the last BadassNormal character to pull off a similar feat against Thaal was a ringless ''[[Characters/GLGreenLanternCorpsEarthLanterns Guy Gardner]]''.
** Does it again during the FinalBattle of ComicBook/DarkCrisis, where he kills [[BigBad Pariah]] with his own [[WaveMotionGun Anti-Matter Cannon]] after helping Mr. Terrific bring the weapon back online.



* HiddenDepths:
** He's a fan of [[TheSeventies 1970s]] retro aesthetics and CassetteFuturism. When Vol succeeds in aquiring the Helix to serve as their new ElaborateUndergroundBase, Jace convinces Vol to not tamper with the interior design because he's really digging how "Funky" it is.
** While he considers Lucius and Luke to be the true geniuses of the Fox Family, the apple didn't fall far from the tree when it comes to Jace's [[GeniusBruiser ingenuity]]. During the FinalBattle of ComicBook/DarkCrisis, Jace was able to impress ''ComicBook/MisterTerrific'' with his [[TheEngineer engineering skills]] by quickly bringing Pariah's [[WaveMotionGun Anti-Matter Cannon]] back online in spite of the weapon not even being native to their reality. When Holt asks how Jace pulled it off, the Bat earnestly replies that he learned from his father.

* InterfaceSpoiler: His [[OutOfCharacterMoment out-of-character rant]] against Jace despite being established as the only cop in the story who is a vocal proponent of superheroes, becomes suspect once you realize that the detective was surrounded by an aura of ''yellow energy'' while on his tirade. Cue the next issue revealing this was all a hallucination constructed by Sinestro's yellow ring and the real Whitaker was just standing nearby, stunned by Batman's sudden HeroicBSOD.



* WhatTheHellHero: In issue #14, Whitaker accuses Jace of being a coward, claiming he ran from Gotham to New York when the post-Fear State climate got too much and refusing to get involved in the Dark Crisis event and that, by avoiding all of these, he's ruining Batman's reputation. [[spoiler:Jace beats the living hell out of him and might have killed him]].

* MoralityChain: By his own self-deprecating admission, Vol was originally a [[TheCracker Black Hat]] who learned how to become a hacker specifically to [[OnlyInItForTheMoney steal money]] and [[SerialRomeo impress women]]. But it was ultimatley ''Jace'' who convinced him that he could instead use those talents to combat injustice and oppession around the world...[[ReformedButNotTamed while still making money off of it.]]

* KnifeNut: Her primary weapons of choice are knives. She not only shanks Jace with a [[SinisterSwitchblade switchblade]] hidden underneath her sleeve, she carries both a larger combat knife and a [[MacheteMayhem machete]] that she uses [[DualWielding in tandem]] against Katana.
