The '''Condiment King''' is a fictional [[DC Comics]] villain. He is generally used as comic relief. |
|||
{{R from fictional character|DC Comics}} |
|||
==Publication history== |
|||
Although the [[DC animated universe|DC Animated Universe]] debuted their Condiment King in ''[[Batman: The Animated Series]]'' where that version was created by [[Bruce Timm]] and [[Paul Dini]], the Mitchell Mayo version of Condiment King first appeared in ''Batgirl: Year One'' #8 and was created by [[Chuck Dixon]] and [[Scott Beatty]]. |
|||
==Fictional character biography== |
|||
===Batman: The Animated Series=== |
|||
The Condiment King first appeared in the ''[[Batman: The Animated Series]]'' episode "Make Em Laugh," voiced by [[Stuart Pankin]]. The character was a throwback to the [[Adam West]] ''[[Batman (TV series)|Batman]]'' TV series in that he was whimsical and made many condiment-based puns. |
|||
Condiment King first appeared where he attacked a rooftop restaurant to rob it only to end up fighting Batman. Chased by Batman to the balcony of the restaurant he robbed, he slipped on ketchup and fell off the balcony where he fell unconscious upon landing on the police car that [[Harvey Bullock (comics)|Harvey Bullock]] and [[Renee Montoya]] were in. They removed his mask revealing him to be a stand-up comedian named '''Buddy Standler'''. Batman and Alfred Pennyworth watched the news where it was mentioned that a hospitalized Buddy Standler had no memory of the restaurant attack and that the restaurant is suing the TV studio where Buddy Standler's TV show is shown for the damages Condiment King did to the restaurant. |
|||
Batman discovered that Buddy Standler was brainwashed by the [[Joker (comics)|Joker]] (using the [[Mad Hatter (comics)|Mad Hatter]]'s devices) where he and fellow comedians Harry Loomis (who Joker brainwashed into being Pack Rat) and Lisa Lorraine (who Joker brainwashed into being Mighty Mom) had unwittingly spurned the previous year at a comedian contest. After Joker was apprehended, it can be assumed that Buddy Standler and the other brainwashed comedians were cleared of all charges. |
|||
===Comics=== |
|||
'''Mitchell Mayo''' is a criminal who operates as Condiment King. He was seen holding up a bank until he was defeated by [[Barbara Gordon|Batgirl]].<ref>''Batgirl: Year One'' #8</ref> |
|||
He later made an appearance where he was committing a crime and is defeated by [[Black Canary]], the third [[Tim Drake|Robin]], and [[Ted Kord|Blue Beetle]].<ref>''Birds of Prey'' #37</ref> |
|||
Robin defeats the Condiment King again. Robin observes that the villain is potentially dangerous (if only because his condiment guns could cause anaphylactic shock), but his ludicrous nature prevents the justice department taking him seriously.<ref>''Robin #171</ref> |
|||
Later in the aftermath miniseries of the ''[[Final Crisis]]'' storyline, Condiment King appears on [[General Immortus]]'s side. [[Professor Milo]] had equipped Condiment King's gun with acidic vinegar.<ref>''Final Crisis Aftermath: Run'' #2</ref> He is seemingly killed after being betrayed and bludgeoned with his own ketchup and mustard guns by [[Human Flame]].<ref>''Final Crisis Aftermath: Run'' #3</ref> |
|||
==Powers and abilities== |
|||
Condiment King makes use of various [[condiment]]s (sometimes capable of causing anaphylactic shock) as his weapons in his condiment gun. The condiments range from [[ketchup]], [[mustard (condiment)|mustard]], [[Tabasco sauce|tabasco]], and [[vinegar]]. |
