Strong Bad's Wanted Poster

Over the course of the Homestar Runner body of work Strong Bad has committed several crimes and misdemeanors. He often operates alone in his criminal acts, but is also frequently aided by either The Cheat, Strong Mad, or both. Oftentimes, he also gets help from Bubs, albeit more subtly. He has been punished or caught while committing several crimes, and as a result has spent some time in jail. Strong Bad's criminal repertoire is long and diverse, ranging from petty misdemeanors, such as prank calls, to major crimes, including kidnapping, extortion and attempted murder.

[edit] Aiding and Abetting

  • I Killed Pom Pom — When Homestar freaks out from thinking he killed Pom Pom, Strong Bad takes advantage of his gullibility by instructing him to first dispose of the "body" (which is actually a deflated pumpkin balloon), and then find a patsy to blame for the "murder", all in exchange for sixteen dozen maple bismarcks. He then has the real Pom Pom play a "vengeful spirit" prank on Homestar to scare the latter into confessing to the "murder", before (unwittingly) providing Homestar with the pointy chin from his costume's mask for the latter to use to kill Pom Pom with.

  • Baddest of the Bands — Strong Bad puts Strong Sad's bats, the Von Blaubloods, into the washing machine and bleaches them, and later pours butter sauce into a fog machine to coat the Von Blaubloods, including Pazquel, in the yellow fluid so The King of Town could gobble them up. He then attaches a bleach bottle to one arm of the Limozeen cardboard cutout, which dumps the bleach into the pond and kills all of the fish in it, while planting a billy club on the cutout's other arm to give the illusion of Limozeen hitting the Drive-Thru Whale with the club.
