* UsefulNotes/{{The Golden Age|of Comic Books}} (later revealed as Earth-2) Franchise/{{Superman}} was one of these, in contrast to UsefulNotes/{{the Silver Age|of Comic Books}}[=/=]Earth-1 Superman. This is a particularly funny (though justified) example of CharacterizationMarchesOn, as ComicBook/PostCrisis Superman is a GentleGiant who would probably have a heart attack at the sight of someone as strong as he is slugging people with such merry abandon.

* Badrock from ''ComicBook/YoungbloodImageComics'' is a teenage boy in the body of a giant hulking rock monster, who thinks that being a famous superhero is ''totally awesome''. His enthusiastic attitude about all the crazy action he gets involved in as a part of Youngblood basically makes him sound exactly like a big fan of [[UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks Dark Age comics]].

* A third Avengers-specific example is Hank [=McCoy=], the Beast, who was significantly more of a [[IncrediblyLamePun party animal]] and bruiser during those days than the mannered, cerebral GentleGiant he developed into after rejoining the ''ComicBook/XMen''. Shortly after Wonder Man returned to life, Hank went to visit him and '''instantly''' regressed into his Avengers persona. Apparently his friendship with Simon brings out this side of him.

* The ''Comicbook/IncredibleHulk'' often takes this role when forced on a team; the Joe Fixit incarnation is practically the avatar of this trope.
