Do we have a trope for the kind of small-time criminal that has a flatcap, carries a gun or a blackjack (or both), and almost always works as a robber or burglar or other kind of small-time crime done for money? That is, he won't arrange plots to conquer the world or even work for the kind of people who do so (since would-be conquerors usually prefer uniformed mooks or Faceless Mooks). In short, he's a "regular criminal." Very frequently seen in Tintin, Suske en Wiske and other comics like that. See Tap on the Head for an image of the character design I mean.
