* ''Series/{{Hunter}}'': Captain Cain, Rick Hunter's [[DaChief exasperated superior]] early in season 1. While not an overt antagonist as he's just doing his job trying to rein in Hunter's maverick tendencies, he's a pretty venal example of the "obstructive chief" since he's far more concerned with maintaining the appearance of an orderly department than protecting his officers.

** ''Franchise/SpiderMan'': Kaine from ''ComicBook/TheCloneSaga''. Being an unstable, overpowered psycho clone who simultaneously loves and hates Peter Parker (and Ben Reilly) is pretty fitting here. Anyone he killed had an ugly scar on his face called "The Mark of Kaine," and he could even put this mark on someone ''without'' killing him if he wanted to make a serious point. Basically, as a clone of Spidey, he uses the power that lets him stick to walls... '''on your face.''' Ow. Nowadays, as the new ComicBook/ScarletSpider, he's calmed down considerably, but he's still quite the threat, especially being bonded to The Other.
