Good guy or bad guy?

I found this guy chillin: https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Ks5tUwx8_tw/VUgeKjs0XWI/AAAAAAAAAVA/ZBxpMwv-mc4/w983-h553-no/20150504_180352.jpg
 
Anyone know what it is? good or bad?
 
I hope he is here to get the aphids! I have been keeping an eye out for them and that powder you see on the leaves is bonide garden dust which didn't seem to work that well because they came back. I thought it would be a good idea since it has sulfur in it which peppers like and I'm trying to stick to organic methods. Going to try neem oil and soap next. My plants are outside right now and I bring them in at night. I have been squishing them with my hands but I hope the neem and soap keeps them away for good.
 
Leaf hopper. I heard they eat plants, but my experience is they just like to hang out on peppers and eat nearby stuff.
