Line 50:
** Whatever the explanation, it doesn't stop [[Spider-Man]] from going to town on him for it, at one point responding to being told that Kingpin was planning a huge operation using most of his available mercenaries by commenting, "Oh, he must be getting take-out."
*** Another example from Spider-Man's corner of the MU would be Nick Katzenberg, a Daily Bugle photographer and professional rival to Peter Parker. While not evil, Katzenberg was sleazy, immoral, and generally unpleasant.
* Also in the [[Marvel Universe]] is the Slug; a drug dealer who makes the Kingpin look svelte. He is so obese he cannot move without the aide of a
* Another Marvel example is Douglas Carmody, one of ''[[Power Pack]]''{{'}}s few recurring bad guys. A fat, middle aged, balding, jobless, [[Fantastic Racism]] fueled, ex-bureaucrat who barely fits in his low-end [[Power Armor]] that manages to remain one of the group's biggest threats simply because he knows their secret identity, fights them one at a time and is not afraid to trick the small children. {{spoiler|This is taken to an extreme during ''[[Inferno (Comic Book)|Inferno]]'' when [[What Do You Mean It's for Kids?|he's thrown into limbo and demons eat his "greasy" soul away]] turning him into a grotesque obese shark monster.}}
* Allfather D'Aronique from ''[[Preacher (Comic Book)|Preacher]]'' is fat to the point that his personal aircraft inevitably sustains damage landing. On the top of that, he's also bulimic. As such, D'Aronique has no qualms about [[Jabba Table Manners|messily gorging himself with food and then vomiting all over himself in front of his subordinates]].
Line 60:
* For a while, Lex Luthor from ''[[Superman]]'' was drawn as one of these, looking quite a bit like a less-heavy Kingpin. Makes quite a bit of sense, as it really plays off of his envy for Superman by making him overweight while Supes is of course built like a god.
* ''[[Dick Tracy (comic strip)|Dick Tracy]]'' villain Oodles; one strip where he weighed himself had him at 465 lbs (without his guns) and ''happy'' because that meant he lost weight!
* In one ''[[The Punisher|Punisher]]'' story, [http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix4/medaillonpun.htm| Medallion] was a lot like Lugman, only with far less humor involved. Believing himself to be a "criminal mastermind", he was more like a crazy and paranoid megalomaniac, possibly suffering from ADD and a very bad diet.[[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain| Even Frank considered him a big joke.]] Like most foes of the Punisher, he didn't survive past the arc he was introduced.
