Thematic Rogues Gallery: All of Ace's foes make use of fighter planes. This is, of course, because intense dogfights are the main draw of the comic.

Blasting It Out of Their Hands: Averted. In Lightning Comics v1 #4, Ace has to stop the Big Bad from shooting him while they're parachuting by blasting the gun out of his hand. However, it's shown in a Bloodless Carnage way that the bullet went through his hand.

Disproportionate Retribution: The villains of Sure-Fire Comics #3 were fired from commercial piloting, so they stole some government money meant to aid a recently-flooded area, leaving the residents of the town to likely death.

Pragmatic Villainy: Black Marie, Big Bad of Lightning Comics v1 #5, would just kill our heroes and her kidnap victim, but she doesn't want the heat a murder will bring, so she just leaves them in the wilderness to die instead.

Disc-One Final Boss: The focus of Sure-Fire Comics #2 seems to be on Ace and Regan thwarting an airplane hijacking carried out by a Nazi spy named Scholz, but about halfway through it's revealed that this was all part of a larger sabotage scheme led by seemingly helpful military man Major Maxim.
