In the Dragonball Z manga/anime, there’s a comic-relief character called Mr. Satan, a non-superpowered wrestler the world at large thinks is the greatest hero, thus taking the heat off Goku & Co.
In the English version of the anime, he’s called Hercule. Guess all those little kids watching shouldn’t like a guy named Satan.
So…is Mr. Satan the hero of this comic? Is he thwarting crime by hurling little Mowgli lookalikes off a cliff?
