** Despite Slade's rather silly portrayal in ''[[Teen Titans Go!]]'', this, ironically, could very well be the most competent version of him. Under the alias of film director, Jade Wilson, he played on all the superheroes sense of self entitlement by filming movies of them which he used as a front to steal the material he needed for hus Doomsday device, and even tricked them into helping him build it. Coming into conflict with the Titans, he takes advantage of their childishness by playing silly MIND MANIPULATION games on them, however when the Titans wise up and take the crystal he needs to power up his device, he tricks Robin into letting him go by playing on Robin's desire to have his own movie, and under his Jade Wilson persona he goes the Divide and Conquer route to break him up from his friends. While filming a scene where Robin pretends to open a fake vault. He tricks Robin into letting him into the real Titans vault by setting him up into being knocked by a falling stage light. Upon reacquiring the crystal, he mind controls the entire world, sans the Titans. He also mind controls Robin by playing on his insecurities. Narrowly losing to the Titans after he all, but succeeded in his world domination scheme, Slade goes out a [[Graceful Loser]], claiming that the Titans [["I Am" Song]] was "monumentally dope".

* In ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'', Agent John Bishop is the leader and founder of the Earth Protection Force, an anti-alien task force Bishop designed after undergoing trauma and experimentation at the hands of aliens. Believing that all aliens and mutations are enemies of humanity, Bishop keeps himself alive for centuries to secure humanity's "safety", creating an entire clone army under the U.S. government's nose and even successfully staging an alien invasion to gain more funding for the EPF. Bishop is as dangerous in combat as he is in strategy, as he dances around entire groups of trained combatants including the Turtles, Karai and Hun, always using nothing but his surroundings and quick-thinking to get the upper hand and keep up. By the year 2105, Bishop has come to see the error in his hatred of all aliens, and develops a peace treaty between several alien worlds and Earth, becoming the beloved President of the new galactic federation and keeping the peace with a gentle but firm hand.

* Bizarrely, Zim from ''[[Invader Zim]]'' can be this on occasion, in episodes like "Future Dib." Usually he's [[Too Dumb to Live]].
