Cuckoolandian Counterpart

The left being only relatively Cuckoolandian.

An odd, sometimes Off Model, spin-off of a character. This counterpart may have a tendency to annoy the original character, perhaps due to it being an exaggerated reflection of the original character's annoying and/or strange antics.

For a more sinister version, see Evil Knockoff.

Examples:

Comic Books

Bizarro was originally this to Superman. He's since been used as a "straight villain" more often.

Western Animation

In Hey Arnold!, Arnold has a country cousin Arnie, who is generally "weird". Later in the series, an episode shows there is a whole group of Cuckoolandian Counterparts to every other character in the series. Well, maybe.

Web Original

Homestar Runner has Homsar, as pictured. Strong Bad also has Senor Cardgage (as well as several others, which takes up more than half of the webshow's Loads and Loads of Characters).
