Line 26:
** The (somewhat) more serious Spidey baddie Hammerhead talks and acts like he was a member of Al Capone's mob. Hammerhead even has a vintage limo in ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'', which is kind of [[Badass]].
** Disco-themed villain the Hypno-Hustler. To be fair, his debut was in 1978, where Disco's popularity was only starting to decline, but since then, he's been a big joke.
** The Enforcers are three thugs the hero occassionally encountered early in his career (almost always [[Punch Clock Villain|in the employ of another villain]], such as the Green Goblin or Kingpin); their first appearance was in 1964, but even then, they seemed to be from a different era. [[The Napoleon|Fancy Dan]] dressed in a "roaring 20s" style "zoot suit", Montana looked and acted like a cowboy, and [[The Brute|the Ox]] seemed like one of ''[[The Dead End Kids]]'' as an adult. They did seem to upgrade their clothing style in more modern appearances, but they didn't have many - the trio was iconic, but lame.
* Briefly happened to [[Green Arrow]] after he was resurrected. His soul (which opted to remain in the afterlife) only allowed [[Green Lantern|Hal]] to bring back a previous version of himself, one from before his life fell apart. The reborn Arrow doesn't know what year it is, thinks a man is a super-villain simply for owning a modern (for 1999) computer, and mistakes a cellphone for a walkie-talkie. By the end of the story, his soul rejoins his body, bringing him back up to date.
* Dozier D. Daze and his Nostagianator on the ''[[Tomorrow Stories]]'' by [[Alan Moore]].
