Line 20:
** It's a common [[Incredible Hulk]] villain too, having made its first Marvel appearance in his book. (And its ''second'' story in that book was the first appearance of [[Wolverine]], giving the association more historical weight than it might otherwise have.)
** In ''[[Earth X]]'', Multiple Man is transformed into one when he eats one of his own doubles to survive. He doesn't lose his self-duplication powers.
** [[Todd ToddMcFarlaneMcFarlane]] infamously used the Wendigo as a poor, misunderstood victim during his Spider-Man run.
* A run of ''[[BPRD]]'' involved a Wendigo curse being transmitted from person to person.
** This one is a particular [[Tear Jerker]], since the Wendigo retains his memories as a family man, though he had been unaware that his family thought him dead and had moved on. He is told that he will eventually lose his humanity, and when he asks Abe and Hellboy to kill him, is told that it won't work, since the only way to break the curse and let him die peacefully is to kill someone else and pass the curse on. HB and Abe regretfully inform the Wendigo that they have no choice but to lock him up. The last shot of him curled up in his cell with nothing but a photo of him with his family for comfort makes this example something of a [[The Woobie|Woobdigo]].
