!!Steven Gomez
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/StevenGomez_1292.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''"Wanna know how to say ‘get bent’ in Spanish?"'']]
->'''Played By''': Steven Michael Quezada
Hank's partner. Hank makes fun of Gomez for being Latino, Gomez makes fun of Hank for being white, but they get along fine. A good cop in his own right.
* [[spoiler: AnyoneCanDie]]
* BadassBeard: In the latter seasons.
* ByTheBookCop: Or at least, generally more insistent on following proper police procedure than Hank is.
* CheshireCatGrin: To [[MemeticMutation memetic]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXC4MbTLZQE levels]]
* TheDanza
* DeadpanSnarker
* [[spoiler:DyingMomentOfAwesome: Taking on Jack's gang with a shotgun despite being clearly outmatched by their automatic weapons.]]
* IncorruptiblePurePureness: Quezada himself describes him as the only character to whom the show's title doesn't apply.
* [[spoiler:KilledOffScreen: We last see Gomez in "To'hajiilee" holding his own with Hank against Jack's crew. At the start of "Ozymandias", Gomez is seen lying dead. Hank soon follows.]]
* NiceGuy: Hank gives him a lot of crap, but he never loses his cool.
* OnlySaneMan: In contrast to Hank's very emotional and at times, even morally questionable conduct, Gomez is about as professional as they come. [[spoiler: Becomes even more apparent once he gets in on the Heisenberg case. He frequently questions Hank on his plans, and even threatens to go public with the case if it means that it gets solved.]]
* {{Pride}}: In season 4, Hank goads him into conducting an extrajudicial search of Gus's industrial laundry facility by insulting his abilities as a cop.
* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Hank's red.
* UndyingLoyalty: [[spoiler: Gomez is fully aware that Hank's actions in season 5.5 are bending the law at best, and that assisting in any way pretty much dooms his job, too. While he expresses some misgivings about Hank's plans, he backs his former partner absolutely and to his grave.]]
* VitriolicBestBuds: For all their insults, it’s clear that he and Hank really do care about each other.
!!ASAC George Merkert
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/george_merkert_6655.png]]
->'''Played By''': Michael Shamus Wiles
Hank’s relatively fair-minded superior at the DEA.
* DaChief
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler:His relationship with Gus is extremely similar to Hank's with Walt, leading Hank to assume that arresting Walt would lead inevitably to Hank's dismissal.]]
* PutOnABus: Resigns in disgrace after Gus' death.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He's a pretty good boss, all things considered, even if he does suspend Hank.
* ItWasWithYouAllAlong: Is shocked to discover a long time friend Gus was a drug kingpin.
* WhatTheHellHero: Marie calls him out for suspending Hank and leaving him unarmed before the Cousins attacked Hank.
!!SAC Ramey
->'''Played By''': Todd Terry
Special Agent in Charge of the Southwestern DEA branch. He becomes Hank's new superior after Merkert resigns.
* TheBusCameBack: He shows up for a couple of Season 2 episodes before disappearing. He returns after Merkert resigns in Season 5.
* DaChief: Following Merkert's resignation.
!!Agent Vanco
->'''Played By''': J.D. Garfield
A DEA agent in El Paso, he becomes Hank's partner when the latter is given a job there.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's rude and condescending towards Hank, and can't even look Hank in the eyes when talking about how much he dislikes him, instead preferring to speak the insults in Spanish to a fellow agent.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: It's hard to feel sorry for him after he gets his leg blown off by a bomb. Better still, the agent who mocked Hank earlier gets blown to pieces by the bomb.
!!APD Det. Tim Roberts
->'''Played By''': Nigel Gibbs
An APD detective and friend of Hank's. He first helps investigate Walt's disapperance in Season 2, and later asks Hank for his help in Gale's murder.
