Evelyn/Killface
Voiced by: Adam Reed
"Behold! The instrument of your doom! I call it: The Annihilatrix! And when it is completed, a million gigatons of thrust will propel the Earth, directly, into the Sun. So look upon my works ye mighty, and despair..."
The Affably Evil super-villain Killface is a giant, muscular alien with a plan to destroy the Earth using a machine called the Annihilatrix. In Season 2, he runs for presidency after the Annihilatrix cures Global Warming.
- Abusive Parents: Despite being a nice guy, his obsession with Simon's weight could count unintentionally. He weighs Simon and his portions, and even gives Simon forced soy enemas.
- Affably Evil: He's a genuinely nice guy for the most part despite being a maniacal villain.
- Alien Abduction: Willingly returns to his home planet with his family at the end of the series.
- Beam Me Up, Scotty!: He makes a common mistake by misquoting the Shelly line seen above.
- Beard of Sorrow: After learning that Barnaby Jones was really his nemesis Xander Crews, and feeling betrayed, he has a beard in the final episode of Season 1.
- Betty and Veronica: While he doesn't make a move on her, he's the Betty to Grace's Archie since he treats her with more respect than Xander.
- Doomsday Device: He invented the Annihilatrix, a device created to push the planet into the sun.
- Embarrassing First Name/Gender-Blender Name: At the end of the series it is revealed his real name is Evelyn.Killface: It's a man's name!
- Even Evil Has Standards:
- While he wanted Phil out of his home, he's also outright enraged his wife divorced him for contracting the cancer.
- He doesn't kill Arabs because he finds the Islamophobia they suffer in America beastly and doesn't wish to add to it.
- Healing Factor: He recovers from two separate massive chest wounds with a minimum of actual medical care, although it still takes several days.
- Humanoid Aliens: He looks vaguely human, albeit somewhat tall and muscular.
- Look on My Works, Ye Mighty, and Despair: At the end of his (non-)televised warning to the world, he goes off-script to include the line from "Ozymandias" by Shelly, only to worry that it might be copyrighted.

- Rage Breaking Point: In Season 2, when he accidentally crushes Baby Lamont.Cameraman: Are [your new Haggar pants] stain-resistant?

[Killface shoots him and the camera falls to the group, splattered with blood]
Killface: Because my bird is dead... and now I really shall destroy this vile planet! [shoots camera] - Villain Protagonist: One of the two protagonists, and Killface is an Affably Evil supervillain.
Xander Crews
Xander Crews/Awesome X/Barnaby Jones
Voiced by: Adam Reed
Click here to see Awesome X
"Look, don't worry man. At his age, I was like, chronic masturbater. Kinda, kinda still am. But the point is... I like it. I would like to masturbate right now in this car. You know? If I had my stuff with me. I would! What are we even talking about?"
The pretentious and obnoxious multi-billionaire heir to the conglomerate Crews Enterprises, whose secret identity as the superhero Awesome X is in danger of being retired when he and his army of mooks, the Xtacles, defeat every super-villain in town. In Season 2, Xander is homeless and the founder of an outreach centre as a result of Killface (apparently) losing his entire fortune. He too runs for presidency when he hears that Xander is running.
- Alien Abduction: Willingly leaves Earth to travel to Killface's planet at the end of the series.
- Betty and Veronica: He's the Veronica to Grace's Archie.
- Character Name Alias: Late in Season 1 after losing everything and meeting a blinded Killface, he takes up the alias of Barnaby Jones. Despite getting the reference, Killface still believes him.
- Corrupted Character Copy: He's based on superheroes like Batman and Iron Man, but Xander goes the opposite route and doesn't develop any of their more redeeming qualities, as he remains a spoiled manchild with no regard for the people in his life. If he did become a superhero because of the deaths of his parents, it's clear he's now doing it for kicks.
- Deceased Parents Are the Best: In true superhero fashion, his parents were murdered while he was young.
- Disappeared Dad: He has a daughter, Jenny, whom he never met until she tracked him down after her mother, Felicity "Fat Tits" Finnigan, dies of cancer.
- Handicapped Badass: After having his neck broken by Killface at the debate.Dr. Stewart: Yeah, I can't give you a medical okay to... battle a cadre of supervillains on top of a giant doomsday device?
Xander: Well, not with that attitude. - Hunting the Most Dangerous Game: He somehow was led to believe that pandas were the world's most dangerous game, not man.
- Jerkass: He treats practically everyone like dirt.
- Jerkass Has a Point: Grace Ryan does freeze his sperm without his knowledge or consent and gets pregnant by Xander again without his consent.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: He manages to trick Killface into not recognising him without much effort, mostly due to Killface's blindness.
- Pixellation: He ends up naked for most of the second half of Season 1, resulting in his lower half being pixelated.
- Punched Across the Room: At the end of the presidential election arc, Killface punches him across the Hagar pants arena, resulting in the breaking of several of Xander's vertebrae.
- Riches to Rags/Rags to Riches: Goes back and forth between these. At the start of the series he is a multi-billionaire. By the midpoint of Season 1 he has lost everything, including his fortune, his company, his secret identity and even control over the Xtacles. He manages to get it all back by the end of the series after revealing himself as Xander Crews. However, in the same episode, Killface throws away his $20 billion check, and he ends up living on the streets for almost a year as a result. Until he remembers that the check flew back in his face when he descended the Annihilatrix elevator, and regains his company once more.
- Too Dumb to Live: He sees a heavily pregnant Grace Ryan who wants to propose marriage, but he concludes that she is just "fat" and wants cheeseburgers.
- Theme Naming: Awesome X, a.k.a. Xander Crews, the commander of the Xtacles and their ship, the Xcalibur.
- Tragic Keepsake: The photo of his murdered parents, accompanied by a sad melody whenever shown on-screen.
- Unnecessary Time Precision: Parodied in the second season. Xander, the resident Batman Corrupted Character Copy, is being interviewed about his homelessness —he used to be a millionaire. When the interviewer informs him it's been a year, he asks what day is. Apparently, he became homeless on a Thursday one year ago. Or not and he's just trolling people.Interviewer: Well, it's been a year now-
Xander: A Year?! It's really been a whole year? What's today?
Interviewer: Thursday.
Xander: Oh my God, it has been a year. - Wig, Dress, Accent: As Barnaby Jones, he wears a blonde wig and instead of his usual tuxedo, a pair of rocket pants (until Simon steals them, then he just ends up naked). Subverted in that he never intended to use the wig and pants as a disguise, but was just wearing them when he escaped from the Xcaliber.

- Falling into His Arms: Ironically inverted. After Xander leaves her to die on his burning and crashing campaign plane, she jumps from the plane and lands in his arms as he parachutes down to Earth. Instead of being relieved, he's more annoyed, and tells her that she's "like a bad penny".

Stan
Stan
Voiced by: Stuart Culpepper
"Yes, you'd better gasp collectively!"
Stan is the head of the Board of Directors at Crews Enterprises, and generally is left with the job of running the company, due to Xander's incompetence. He returns in "The Xtacles", now the president of the United States, giving orders to the Xtacles.
- Action Survivor: Despite being almost the exact opposite of the Action Hero, he manages to be one of the few characters to survive the entire series.

Voiced by: Scott Lipe
"I think my body is rejecting the claws."

- Off with His Head!: Wendell slices off his head to prevent him from proposing to Antagone.
- Pun: "I like to call it Lost Wages!", even though Xander finds it funny.

Valerie
Valerie
Voiced by: Mary Kraft ("Meet Killface"), Amber Nash
"No, revenge shall be mine!"
Valerie, or Val for short, is Killface's beleaguered, restless and terrified assistant, kidnapped and forced to serve him.
- Action Survivor: Surprisingly manages to survive the entire series despite not being entirely skilled at firearms or fighting.
- Ambition Is Evil: She envies Sinn's position as the leader of the "Sisterhood of Chaos", and kills her to take her place.
- Beleaguered Assistant: What she starts off as to Killface. However, it doesn't take too long for her to rebel against him after the years of abuse.
- Boyish Short Hair: She has short brown hair upon her return in Season 2 to symbolise her Character Development.
- Character Development: From Killface's scared and abused secretary to the badass assassin out to kill him at all costs by Season 2.

- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Declares revenge on Killface after suffering years of abuse from him.Valerie: Revenge shall be mine!
Sinn
Sinn/Hooper
Voiced by: Kelly Jenrette
Sinn is Killface's black, female (probably) robot servant who has a mechanical arm and refers to Killface as "sire".

- Artificial Limbs: She has a robotic right arm, to replace one that was ripped off by Killface.

- Fan Disservice: She appears naked, covering her breasts seconds before she is shot to death by Val.
- Interspecies Romance: Her relationship with Wately, the human-lobster hybrid. If she's a robot then her relationship with the human Valerie could also count.
- No Kill like Overkill: Shot multiple times by Valerie after she seduced her into a gay relationship.
- Parental Substitute: Is shocked to discover that Simon (possibly; who knows) thinks of her as a mother figure.
- Sweet Polly Oliver: After Killface fires her, she disguises herself as "Hooper", a male Xtacle. Played with by the fact that she made virtually no effort to actually conceal her gender, and the Xtacles (and Xander) just assume she's a guy despite any evidence to the contrary (up to and including literally seeing her with her pants down).
- Unsettling Gender-Reveal: To the Xtacles, who assumed that she was male. When she reveals herself as Sinn after starting the "Sisterhood of Chaos", they are shocked... that her name isn't really Hooper. It takes her spelling it out to them for them to realise she's a woman.

The Xtacles
In General
The Xtacles/The Deceptacles
Voiced by: Various
"Deceptacles! ...More than you bargain for!"
The Xtacles are a workforce of super-soldiers created by Xander Crews to serve Awesome X. In Season 2, they end up betraying him and following Hooper (Sinn) instead, becoming the Deceptacles. A spinoff series starring the Xtacles taking place after Season 2 was planned, but cancelled after two episodes. It involved the Xtacles taking orders directly from President Stan. Only a few are named throughout the series, but more are given personalities and names in the spinoff.
- Anti-Climactic Unmasking: Their faces are never shown in the main series barring one moment with Jimbo at the start of Season 2, but they casually walk around unmasked in "The Xtacles".
- Evil Costume Switch: When Hooper takes control of the Xtacles in Season 2 and renames them the "Deceptacles", they get new black armour.
- The Faceless: Their helmets mask their faces throughout the series, and the one scene featuring Jimbo unmasked only shows him from behind. Averted in their spinoff series.
- Leitmotif: Attempted - the Deceptacles create their own theme tune, and sing it every chance they get. "Deceptacles! More than you bargain for!"
- Leeroy Jenkins: When enacting the plan to capture Xander Crews in Season 1, just after receiving their jet boots, one of the Xtacles attempts this while jumping from the Xcalibur. Disappointingly, not before distributing the jet boots.Let's do thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis...
- Robotic Reveal/Dramatic Unmask: Inverted in-universe. Xander always thought they were robots, not just armoured humans, so when one of them takes off their helmet to show him, he's absolutely shocked... that a robot could look so lifelike.
- Palette Swap: When upgrading to the "Deceptacles", their armour goes from orange to a sleek black. They go back to the orange armour after Season 2.
- Share Phrase: Although it spreads to the entire cast later, they termed "boosh!"
- Your Head Asplode: Late in Season 1, their helmets are rigged with explosive devices so that Stan has the capability to blow their heads up each hour they don't have Xander Crews in captivity.
Ronnie
Ronnie
Voiced by: Adam Reed
"Boobs. Baby's lunch bag."
An homoerotic Xtacle with a heavy Slavic accent. His voice and use of the phrase "come on, buddy" served as the basis for Boris, KGB assistant, in Archer.
- Black Comedy Rape: Xander accuses him of having raped him when he was in captivity. Whatever it was, he certainly did something, as Xander was left without any clothes (barring the rocket pants he stole from Ronnie himself) for most of the rest of the season.
- Character Death: Sacrifices himself midway through Season 2.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Dies saving Xander and Wendell from a giant falling pair of pants in Season 2.
- Pants-Free: Xander steals his rocket pants early on, so he spends much of his screen time with no pants.
- Single-Target Sexuality: Is of ambiguous sexuality, but shows a strange fixation for Xander Crews.
- Uniformity Exception: Identifiable among the other Xtacles at first by his lack of pants, and then by his orange armour (as he was imprisoned when the Xtacles upgraded to the black “Deceptacle” armour).
Jack Taggart
Jack Taggart
Voiced by: Marshall Bell
The leader of the Xtacles following Xander's disappearance, Jack Taggart is more or less the main character of "The Xtacles". Though he acts stern and by-the-book, he's just as incompetent as the rest of the Xtacles.
- Abuse Mistake: He assumes Rapier Ape (a retired ape who wields a rapier) is an ape who has taken raping to a whole new level.
- Scars Are Forever: He has a scar running through his right eye.
- Undying Loyalty: He is dangerously loyal to Xander's orders, even when the last order they received was to wait for more orders.
A.L.E.X.
A.L.E.X.
Voiced by: Rachael Harris
The holographic avatar aboard the Xcalibur who remained inactive before the series due to Bigby leaving his sandwich in her port, which he thought was a sandwich warmer. She is the voice of reason to the Xtacles, or would be if they ever listened to her.
- A Form You Are Comfortable With: She insists that she doesn't have to look attractive to do her job. The Xtacles disagree.A.L.E.X.: It doesn't matter what I look like!
Xtacles (simultaneously): Oh, it matters! - Only Sane Man: She is the only even remotely reasonable figure aboard the Xcalibur, and is rarely listened to.
- Surrounded by Idiots: She's surrounded by the idiotic Xtacles.

Another Xtacle, less responsible than Bigsby, who rarely follows orders. He is attracted to A.L.E.X., even though she's a holograph.
- Robosexual: Is sexually attracted to A.L.E.X.
