He’s a “giant henchman” type, possibly a bit superhuman. He’s associated with a Vietnamese temple that’s normally peaceful. But he mistakenly went into a fight with Spider-Man and the US government.

6323 in-depth character profiles from comics, games, movies
News and latest profiles
Windfall
One of the Masters of Disaster, and of DC Comics’ Outsiders, during the 1980s and 1990s. Air powers. This profile is intended to be read after the Masters of Disaster team profile, then the New-Wave character profile.
Your PC as a music player
A “how to” article about playing music files on your Windows PC in a pleasant, high-quality manner on a moderate-for-most-people ($250-ish) hardware total budget. Yes, it’s completely off-topic – but it’s useful.
Inaros-class warframe
A short-ish profile of the Inaros warframe from, well, the Warframe video game, for use in tabletop/pen-and-paper RPGs. Endurance/durability unit with an undead Ancient Egyptian warrior theme and a backstory. And a winning smile.
Moss-Man
One of the more obscure heroic warriors in the 1980s Masters of the Universe cartoon series. Plant powers and shapechangers.
Unicorn
A pure, glittery and two-fisted super-heroine from a 1985 RPG scenario in a French magazine. So yeah, we can do that too. If we want.
Uncle Scrooge
How much would you pay for RPG stats for Uncle Scrooge ? One million ? Two billions ? A poolfull ? Well, they’re free.
Ani-Men
An odd-looking, oddly enduring team of minor Marvel manimal malefactors.
Generic Demons and Spectres in DooM
From the 1990s Doom video games, the big pink humanoid bull gorillas and the invisible ones.
Enforcer
An interesting but incoherent enemy of the Ghost Rider and Spider-Woman. He could have been a contender. During the 1970s, he seemingly specialised in hunting down supernaturals.
Steeplejack
Obscure Luke Cage 1970s villain. Near-superhuman strength and construction-themed weapon.
Ritual
Another example of a fully-fleshed out video game Player Character – a Barbarian Shaman from the seminal Everquest. Also presents setting elements such as the Northmen, the Tribunal, Halas, the epic weapon quest, etc..
Avengers West Coast
The early years (1984 to 1988) of the Avengers West Coast. Comprehensive team profile, lots of stuff.
Masquerader
Obscure Batman enemy, only seen once in 1969. He’s Batman’s tailor… and he’s gone rogue ! Duh duh dum !
Weapons Locker – Modern firearms – Chapter #1 – Handguns, part 2
A big, heavily illustrated article about special-purpose handguns in fiction. So that’s useful to have.
Annihilus
A great space menace from another universe. And one of Marvel Comics’ notable villains. This first profile covers the 1960s and 1970s.
Lizard Lady
From the Negation book in the Crossgen Universe. Adaptative alien warrior.
DC Heroes RPG – New Powers
The “base camp” page for a large bunch of new, modified and clarified Powers for the DC Heroes tabletop super-hero RPG.
Generic Doom imp
The little faeces-coloured guys with the fangs and small fireballs and electrified spikes in the 1990s Doom video games.
Owlman
A sort of creepy, evil would-be telepathic Batman from another reality. This is the 1964 version, not the Grant Morrison one. Best read after the Ages of DC Comics and the “base camp” profile for the pre-Crisis Earth-3 Crime Syndicate of America.
Crime Syndicate of America
This is the original version of the evil Justice League from Earth-3. So, the 1964-1985 take on the concept. “Base camp” article that explains all the things that would be redundant in these guys’ individual profiles. Best read after our guide to the ages and Earths of DC Comics.
Khora-class warframe
A short-ish profile of the Khora warframe from, well, the Warframe video game, for use in tabletop/pen-and-paper RPGs. A strange huntress with a mysterious backstory, a killer cybercat and a magic barbed chain.
Negative Zone blotter
This article is where we keep our notes about the Negative Zone in general, as we research stories that take place there. How it works, how to get there, local lifeforms, area codes, etc..
Black Scorpion
Our contributor Ethan continues his 1950s movie giant monster series. This time it’s the giant Mexican scorpions in 1957 monster mash The Black Scorpion. As animated by Ray Harryhausen.
Dakota Jones
An obscure sort-of-ally of Batman, decades ago. Brawler and famous race cars driver.
Marty McFly
Capsule notes about the non-chickening hero of the classic Back To The Future movies.
Callsign Hammerfall
A full-on example of a Player Character in the Warframe video game. This also explains Tenno Void abilities, a chunk of the game’s backstory, the Lotus-issued spaceships (pre-Railjack), and the like.
Dolores & Juan Muerto
Obscure 1970 enemies of the Batman. And among the oddly few Mexican characters in the DCU. Aristocratic Gothic Horror crime lords who are sort of immortal.
Oryx
A very very tall fighter and agent, blatantly based on Kareem Abdul Jabar in Game of Death. We couldn’t resist, obviously.
Warframe setting – worlds, history and factions
Another game setting primer, this time for Warframe’s baroque sci-fi world. A far future, almost post-apocalyptic version of the solar system with machinegun-toting technogolem space ninja.
