Ridley (Metroid)
Ridley appears a few times in the "" comics from 1990. In these comics, he looks almost exactly as he appears in the NES version manual and is depicted as an individual of a full-fledged species of identical creatures, an attribute he employs to impersonate a judge of the same species as him. "Nintendo Power" featured two "Metroid" adaptations. The "Super Metroid" comic follows the plot of the video game of the same name over the course of sixty pages, while the "Metroid Prime" comic does the same across eighteen pages. In the "Metroid" e-manga created by Yoshio Sakamoto, Samus first meets Ridley as a child as he leads the attack on her home colony of K-2L. As Ridley observes the destruction of the colony, Samus approaches him. Her young mind overwhelmed by the carnage but having recently been taught by the Chozo elder Old Bird that even unsightly creatures can be decent, she tries to befriend him, desperate for assurance that everything will be all right. Ridley appears to display a moment's pity toward her before abruptly revealing his true nature by preparing to annihilate her, out of either bloodlust or mercy. Samus' mother Virginia, however, arrives in the nick of time amidst the confusion of the Pirate raid and pushes her daughter out of the way of Ridley's fiery breath, dying instantly in the process. This memory scars Samus for life, and she summarily vows to avenge her parents and destroy Ridley and all the Space Pirates.
List of Ben 10 villains
Octagon and Rhomboid Vreedle are a pair of "Repo men" who happen to be the sons of the infamous criminal Ma Vreedle, having very limited intelligence and theirs occupation includes bounty hunting and mercenaries for hire. Octagon is the older brother, slightly more intelligent with more mature, serious and down-to-earth personality, yet can still be easily tricked such as when Gwen distracted him and his brother with bubble wrap. Rhomboid is the least intelligent of the siblings who is the brawn of the two with a habit of always blowing things up with a large weapon. As he is the younger brother, despite being larger in size, he usually follows Octagon's orders with occasional foul-ups on his end. The Vreedle Brothers are physically weaker than most of Ben's enemies and appear to be no stronger than a normal human. However they make up for this with a large arsenal of various Alien weapons; and have a tendency to blow things up, which results in them having numerous run-ins with the law. The Vreedles are revealed to be multiple clone pairs created by their parents using an "expired cloning kit". Despite being basically defective clones, the Vreedles have a form of semi-immortality, meaning even if they are killed, usually by explosions they caused, their memories are transferred into another "set" of clones who will take their place.
