* BreakTheCutie: Buddy starts off as an idealistic funny person, but after [[spoiler:his wife and children ''die'', he goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge and ''kills'' people]].

* BodySurf: Like Swamp Thing, Buddy can shift his consciousness into various other animals. Unlike Swamp Thing, it's much more difficut to take control of a being who already has a mind and will of its own, and Buddy can't create a new body from scratch using the animal as a template either unless he has access to his human DNA. [[spoiler: When trying to recreate his body without his old DNA he ends up trapped in the body of an AnimalisticAbomination.]]

* ResurrectiveImmortality: [[spoiler: Jamie Delano's run begins with Buddy being ran over and later being cremated, but he is able to shift his consciousness to an eyelash mite in Ellen and, from there, various other animal bodies. He eventually ends up in a triceratops body in which he tries to recreate his old body using common DNA, but he fails and ends up becoming an AnimalisticAbomination. Only when he enters in contact with his severed fingers, which still have his old DNA, is he able to go back to being Buddy.]]

[[AlliterativeName Buddy Baker]], also known as Animal Man, was one of many {{Super Hero}}es created during [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks the 1960s]]. He first appeared in ''Strange Adventures'' #180 (September, 1965). Created by writers France Herron and Dave Wood, and artist Carmine Infantino. He could take the abilities of any animal who was nearby and was granted this power by yellow aliens. He mainly used it to be a FlyingBrick, though.
