* [[Badass]]: Geko has the ability to mow down Diaper Gang mooks with ridiculous ease.
* [[Bad Boss]]: Diaper King and chief of police.
* [[Batman Cold Open]]: The film starts with the Diaper Gang getting killed by Geko. The title characters show up a few seconds later and have little to do with the previous scene aside from running over a half-dead mutant.

* [[Black Blood]]: Geko due to being a cyborg-zombie.
