Line 37:
* Wong, faithful servant to ''[[Doctor Strange]]'', has double duty as a bodyguard when Strange is distracted (e.g. while in [[Astral Projection]]) and a [[Battle Butler|housekeeper/butler]] the rest of the time. He is also [[Kung Fu Wizard|Strange's]] sparring partner.
* As the king of the fictional nation of Wakanda, ''[[Black Panther]]'' has a group of female bodyguards despite the fact that he is a [[Superhero]] who has been a member of both the [[Fantastic Four]] and [[The Avengers (Comic Book)|The Avengers]].
** Being fair, that's the traditional royal bodyguard unit. And while T'Challa doesn't exactly need them, other kings of Wakanda in the past have. For that matter T'Challa's father died at least partly from going around without bodyguards, even after growing old, which would obviously stick in his son's mind as an object lesson.
* Sasha Bordeaux, though badass in her own right, definitely qualifies, seeing as the guy she was hired to protect is Bruce "The Goddamn Batman" Wayne. This eventually led to her deciding to take additional levels of badass to try to keep up with him once she knew who she was really protecting. It had gotten pretty bad when she was constantly getting ducked by her charge.
* In ''[[House of M]]'', Rhino probably qualifies as the most useless bodyguard in the world (while serving as ''[[Spider-Man]]'''s bodyguard when Spidey was on good terms with Magnus).
