- Magnificent Bastard: The titular Chapeau el "Esmirriau" is a criminal thief who stands out as one of Mortadelo and Filemón's most tenacious enemies thanks to his big bowler hat filled with mechanical gadgets of any kind. After stealing from them an ancient Egyptian coin by making a hole in their wall and safe, Chapeau evades capture throughout the story using the large amount of tools in his hat that range from explosives, to mechanical arms, to even living animals, with him being able to activate the one he needs in the exact situation in an instant. Even when they managed to take his hat from him, he just donned another one. Many years after his defeat, he would work with many other previous villains in the series to claim revenge on Mortadelo and Filemón, while still using his hat's various devices to end them.
