Strong Bad
From Homestar Runner Wiki
I'm Strong Bad, and you don't know it yet, but I'm the reason you're here. -- Strong Bad
The most popular character on homestarrunner.com, Strong Bad answers e-mails with a passion, usually every Monday or Tuesday. He's Strong Sad's big brother and Strong Mad's little brother. His is the dominant personality and he loves to push everyone around: he's often ridiculing Strong Sad, abusing Homestar, or prank-calling Marzipan. He has boxing gloves for hands (or are they just on his hands? No one knows for sure), a Mexican wrestling mask for a head, and his favorite saying is (or was for a time) "holy crap."
He is from Parts Unknown. The only time we've seen under the mask is in Marshmallow's Last Stand, when a bomb blows a chunk of his mask off. There was nothing inside! So Strong Bad may not even have a head.
He is a stickler for grammar and spelling, and hates it when asked "Hey, Strong Bad, how do you type with boxing gloves on?". He usually does what he does best when he gets an e-mail like that: DELETED!!!
His Halloween costumes over the years have been Carmen Miranda, Carmen Sandiego, Homestar as Angus Young, and Ozone (from the movie Breakin').
"Strong Bads" was the name of one of the teams in the Nintendo game Tag Team Wrestling. Since Mike Chapman mentioned the game in an interview talking about Strong Bad, this is probably where the name came from.
