Line 38:
** Luca Brasi is Don Vito's strong-arm enforcer, though he's not presented as badass as his character in the film. In fact, his two chief scenes involve him stumbling over a speech and getting killed.
*** Part of the point of the story is that both he and Vito are getting old. Still, in the book it takes two men to hold his arms while he's being strangled, instead of the knife-through-the-hand trick from the movie.
** Michael is both a war hero and, in the end, a (Pyrrhically) badass gangster.
* [[Badass Moustache]]: Vito Corleone sports a badass mustache, and he only begins wearing it after he gains power as a Mafia kingpin.
* [[Bath Suicide]]: In ''Part II'', Hagen visits {{spoiler|Pentangeli}} in prison and talks about this practice in the Roman Empire, hinting that if {{spoiler|Pentangeli}} does this his family will be spared. {{spoiler|He does, and they are.}}
