Strong Badman Characters
From Homestar Runner Wiki
Several characters star alongside Strong Badman in The Total Adventures of Strong Badman.
| Character | Description | Appearances |
|---|---|---|
 | Damp Towel Man is a superhero played by Coach Z. His job is to collect damp towels from across the galaxy. His "mild-mannered alter ego" is named Dan Towelman. When Coach Z turns into Damp Towel Man, he dons a costume consisting of a mask and a cape, which is actually a towel. He also sports a yellow "Z" across his chest. In the toon DNA Evidence, he finds a green-stained damp towel on Strong Bad's desk, which he takes to work the next day. When he returns to his janitor cart, he finds it has gone missing. He suspects the culprit was his nemesis, Dry Ragamuffin. |

 | The Deutsch Master is a villain within the comic book series The Total Adventures of Strong Badman. His first mention is in the Strong Bad Email portrait, where Strong Bad decides that his greatness is worthy of portraiture by a Deutsch Master (a play on "Dutch Master"). Strong Bad mentions that Deutsch Masters make the kind of art that is always getting stolen or vandalized by art bandits, such as The Cheat. He creates a portrait of Strong Bad dressed in what looks like a beret, brown hair, and either a toga or other kind of white robe and holding Lord Quackingstick in his left boxing glove. According to a small white card located beside the painting, the portrait is titled Strongio da Baddio, was apparently created by someone named "DaVantres" (whom is likely either one of the "Deutsch Masters" or even The Deutsch Master himself), and was created circa 1658. The portrait is contained in a detailed golden frame. Clicking on the white card will cause Strong Badman Issue #45 to pop up, depicting The Deutsch Master as a dark, robed figure armed with a paintbrush with blue paint on it and red eyes. He stands over the unconscious bodies of Deutschman and Strong Badman, and he says in a word bubble that "Strong Badman and Deutschman are both FINISHED!!!" |

 | Deutschman is a character in The Total Adventures of Strong Badman. He is based off of Harry Earlenmacherg from the German city of Düsseldorf, the sender of the Strong Bad Email haircut, making him the second character based off a Strong Bad Email sender in the Strong Badman universe (the first being Stiny). The nickname "Deutschman" is given by Strong Bad, and clicking on the word Deutschman in the email brings up an image of The Total Adventures of Strong Badman issue #23, featuring Deutschman. By the end of the email the sender is also called Düsseldörke and Ger-man.
His superpowers, if any, are unknown, though he seems to wield a chain of sausages as a weapon. He has blond hair, a mustache and, later, a beard. Although elsewhere in the Homestar Runner body of work the word "deutsch" (the German word for "German") is mistaken for the word "Dutch", it seems to be correct in the case of Deutschman, as he wears lederhosen and a pickelhaube, both of which are German attire. The pickelhaube is also seen on The Kaiser in The Ballad of The Sneak. He also wears green lederhosen, green tights, green gloves, and green boots. Although he appears to be a villain during his Total Adventures of Strong Badman debut, in issue #45, it appears both he and Strong Badman teamed up to fight The Deutsch Master, a battle they lost. Deutschman appears once more in the 150th email, alternate universe, in which he has a cameo appearance. As Strong Bad jumps down from the top to bottom panel in the Strong Badman comic, he passes a panel of Deutschman holding a chain of sausage and saying "KINDER UBERRASCHUNG!!", the German name for "Kinder Surprise" (though Uberraschung should be spelled Überraschung). |

 | Dry Ragamuffin is Damp Towel Man's nemesis, and appears to be the superhero version of Bubs. Damp Towel Man suspects that Dry Ragamuffin stole his green-stained damp towel from his janitor cart at The Office. His mild-mannered alter-ego is Dreyfus Ragámoofin. |

 | Grossman is a fat, smelly, untidy, and overall gross character who appears in The Total Adventures of Strong Badman issue #56. Grossman was a nickname given to the sender of the Strong Bad Email narrator, whose real name is Grant Gossman, by Strong Bad. The nickname was given for no particular reason other than that "Gossman" sounds like "Grossman" (or possibly that it's a combination of Grant and Gossman). He has somewhat dark blonde hair on his head and 37 black hairs across his shoulders. He wears a somewhat green wifebeater shirt, brown pants, a belt, and at least one green glove with which he holds an unpeeled banana. Along his body he has numerous visible stains of varying colors, including lime green, dark green, yellow, orange, and blue, as well as two sweat stains, one under his right armpit and one on the front of his torso. He has visible green gas rising up from him. He may be Strong Badman's new roommate. |
