Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot/Comic Books: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

* [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]].

** And a variant by other creators: [[Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters]].

** Marvel Zombies 4 has his own zombie + X record in it. In 3 issues we get {{spoiler|Zombie Werewolf, at least three Mad Zombies, [[Demonic Possession|Demonic Possessed Zombie]], Zombie Sea Monsters, Zombie Cloud, and three dead superheroes [[Fusion Dance|Fused in One Zombie]].}}

*** Sadly, while a version of Simon Garth (The Zombie!) appears, it's the main [[Marvel Universe]] version. So we never get to see ''Zombie Zombie''!

* ''[[The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen]]'': Mina Murray, Alan Quatermain, Captain Nemo, the Invisible Man and Mr Hyde team up to fight [[Fu Manchu]] (and later Moriarty) in an airship battle over London. And in the second series they fight Martians. Being Alan Moore, however, it's taken deadly seriously and ends up tragic.

** Also by Alan Moore is ''[[Top Ten]]'', which one could conclude is less serious, based on the presence of a [[Your Vampires Suck|vampire]] Mafia. And everything else in it.

** The cartoons had robot ninjas that doubled as [[Mecha-Mooks]].

*** And Turtles in Time gave us these Robot Ninjas riding ''dinosaurs''.

** The original comic had an issue that transformed the turtles into ''ninja pirates'', complete with eyepatches and peg legs.

** The entire series accounts for this, Cartoons or otherwise, the series has had a Robot Scientist, a brain in a mech suit, Foot ''mystics'', a mutant Alligator, a Human/Alien agent called Bishop, I could go on.

* [[Requiem Chevalier Vampire]]. Heavy Metal Nazi Vampires fighting [[Mad Scientist]] Mummies, [[The Fundamentalist|Religious Fanatic]] Werewolves, [[Straw Feminist|Feminist]] [[Sky Pirate|Pirate]] Ghouls, Demons and Leprechauns.

* ''[[Hellboy (comics)|Hellboy]]''. A demonic [[Badass Longcoat]] paranormal investigator with a [[Hand Cannon]], who is friends with a fishman, a pyrokinetic chick, a man made of ectoplasm, and a man made of clay. They fight [[Those Wacky Nazis]], [[The Legions of Hell]], and [[The Fair Folk]]. And one time, they fought a monkey with a gun.

{{quote|'''Karolina:''' What kind of bad guys are ''your'' parents, Topher? Androids? Demons? ''[[Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs|Android demons]]''?}}

** And again with Molly's "Cowboy Werewoofs!"

* There's also this character in [[Batman|Detective Comics]] who is a wealthy obsessed kung-fu ninja forensic escapologist, and that's even before we get into the belt, the cave, and the vehicles. (The time travel, the demons, the aliens, the witches, the mutants, etc. etc.) [[They Fight Crime|He fights crime]].

* Once on the [[City of Heroes]] forums, a comic writer was trying to come to grips with the realization a character in the comic he was writing was an alien lizard wizard ghost nazi. Among other things.

* ''[[Agents of Atlas]]''. A rejuvenated super-spy, a [[Everything's Better with Monkeys|talking gorilla]], a killer robot, a goddess, a spaceman, and an Atlantean queen. [[They Fight Crime]].

** Don't forget the Chi-zilla kung fu master son of a supervillain.

* The [[Bronze Age]] [[Superman]] villain Terra Man. In the Old West, a boy was kidnapped by aliens. He escaped them and became a feared criminal in their civilization, using their technology. When he finally returned to Earth, he found that a hundred years had passed while he'd been flying around space at relativistic speeds. He took offense that Earth's greatest hero was an alien, so he dedicated himself to making Superman's life miserable. Yet he still dressed and behaved like someone from the Old West even while using alien technology, so he was a space cowboy. Oh, and he rode a winged alien horse named Nova.

* Zombie Robot Gustave Eiffel from ''[[The Umbrella Academy]]''.

* ''[[Superman]] and [[Batman]] Versus Vampires and Werewolves''. With [[Etrigan]] the Demon and [[Green Arrow]].

** To wit: G.I. Robot (rill name: J.A.K.E. 2) was but one of the many, ''many'' attempts by American forces to capture Dinosaur Island, which was of incredible strategic value in the Pacific Theatre. Other attempts involved the Creature Commandos, the Suicide Squad, and recruiting three brothers from the circus to be paratroopers. As far as can be seen, Dinosaur Island was never captured by either side.

** This leaves out another splash panel that involves them fighting ''literal'' [[Snakes on a Plane|snakes on planes.]]

* A lot of superhero team books try for this. For example, [[Batman and the Outsiders|the Outsiders]] consisted of [[Royals Who Actually Do Something|Geo]][[Dishing Out Dirt|Force,]] [[Elemental Embodiment|Metamorpho,]] [[Katanas Are Better|Katana,]] [[Shock and Awe|Black Lightning,]] [[Heroic Sociopath|Halo,]] and [[Friendly Neighborhood Vampires|Looker.]] A team of crimefighters assembled by [[Batman|the Goddamn Batman]] to act as a sort of black ops JLA.

* One of the villains in ''[[Major Bummer]]'' is [[wikipedia:Tyrannosaurus Reich|Tyrannosaurus Reich,]] a Nazi dinosaur.

* The new spin-off from the [[Justice League of America]], ''Cry For Justice'', has a team made up of [[Green Lantern]], a pilot with [[Imported Alien Phlebotinum]], [[Green Arrow]], a modern day [[Robin Hood]], Ray Palmer, a scientist who has the ability to shrink himself at will, and who just came back from an [[Alternate Universe]], the former [[Captain Marvel]] Jr., a boy powered by the power of the gods, [[Batwoman]], a kick-ass lesbian ninja, [[Supergirl]] and [[Starman (comics)|Mikaal Tomas]], two [[Human Aliens]], the latter of which is is gay, and finally Congorilla, an explorer whose mind is trapped in the body of a [[Everything's Better with Monkeys|gorilla]].

* The sequel comic book series of ''[[The Incredibles]]'' has a robotic Tyrannosaurus rex with a tophat and a monocle as a prominent member of the [[Legion of Doom|Confederacy of Crime]].

* The [[Marvel Universe]] minor supervillain Swarm tends to fit here. A Nazi scientist [[I Love Nuclear Power|irradiated a beehive]], was [[Family-Unfriendly Death|eaten alive by the bees]], and somehow [[Bee-Bee Gun|his consciousness survived]] as the [[Hive Queen]]. In more fitting terms, Swarm is an evil hive of telepathic bees with Nazi sympathies. It's been pointed out before that Nazi supervillains have been done, evil bees have been done, people ''made'' out of evil bees have been done - but somehow, ''a Nazi made of bees'' is more awesome than it has any right to be.

* Captain Raptor. It's [[Flash Gordon (comic strip)|Flash Gordon]] as a velociraptor flying through space fighting cybernetic dinosaurian [[Space Pirates]] and huge [[Space Whale|space tylosaurs]].

* It could be reasonably argued that this trope is the reason the [[Amalgam Universe]] exists. DarkClaw, for example, is a Canadian-millionaire-bat-wolverine-mutant with a [[Healing Factor]], adamantium claws, and sonar powers.

* [[Elf Quest]] doesn't keep much noise about it, but deep down it's actually a comic about [[Our Elves Are Better|elf]] {{spoiler|''aliens''}}. There's a whole story arc where the point is to find out whether elf {{spoiler|aliens}} can beat [[All Trolls Are Different|troll]] {{spoiler|aliens}}. Oh, ''and'' they're [[Noble Savage|noble savages]] with [[Bond Creatures|bond]] [[Big Badass Wolf|wolves]] too.

* At one point in the Future Foundation story, [[Spider-Man|Spidey]] and the [[Fantastic Four|FF]] run into zombie pirates. Spidey, who is ''obviously'' [[One of Us]], can barely contain his joy. [http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/6/61810/1793078-asm_659_12.jpg He practically squees.]{{Dead link}}
