Bomberman

Bomberman (sometimes called White Bomberman or other similar nicknames) is the titular main protagonist of the Bomberman series of video games. His first and only game appearance within any Mario-related media was in the Wario crossover game Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!, but he also appears alongside Mario and others in three comics published in the German Club Nintendo magazine.

Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!
In Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!, the greedy Wario somehow found the extra-dimensional portal that connects his world to Bomberland. Being the sort of person he is, Wario decided to plunder the new land, taking the world's riches for himself and enlisting the inhabitants as part of his legion. However, he did not expect such an explosive resistance from the Madbombers. In the game's campaign, Wario engages Madbombers in a battle of bombs and wits, while Bomberman fights Wario's own Madbombers that look just him.

"Warios Weihnachtsmärchen"
Bomberman also appeared as a main character in the comic "Warios Weihnachtsmärchen", published in the German Club Nintendo magazine. In this story, he worked as a sales-clerk in Wario's Bombenladen, a shop selling bombs. When he asked his cold-hearted boss for getting days off during Christmas, Wario fired him, resulting in Bomberman not having enough money to buy Christmas presents for his friends. The Ghosts of Christmas, however, made Wario aware of his bad behavior, so in the end of the story he hired Bomberman again.

"Sag niemals Holerö!"
Once again, Bomberman played a major role in the comic, "Sag niemals Holerö!". This story is about an evil alien called Heini who is able and plans to turn the humans on Earth into food by singing the magical song, "Holerö". Mario and TicToc, not knowing about the spell yet but noticing its consequences, were among the few who could resist it, and on their way from Switzerland to New York, they met Bomberman in Austria who was not affected by the spell either. Bomberman introduced himself as "Bombi from Vienna", and decided to join Mario and TicToc in order to solve the mystery jointly. The three of them soon met a Toad called Todojewski who told them about Heini and his plans. He also gave the advice to go to "Taj Mahal", a restaurant in Frankfurt, Germany, so Bomberman and his friends went there. In Taj Mahal, they met a man called Mahgo who told each of the heroes about one special power they had. Bomberman's power was throwing bombs.

Later in the story, the three friends stumbled upon three girls called Nicole, Pia and Balu, who had not been transformed either. Glad about this meeting, the six of them had dinner together. Balu decided to turn on some music, and Pia made a remark that she should play their "favorite song". In this moment, Bomberman, seeing through the girls' true plans - playing the "Holerö" song and thus turning Bomberman, T.T. and Mario into food -, threw a bomb at them and saved his friends. He made use of his power once again when the three heroes got wise to Heini in the kitchen of the Alte Oper. The alien was just about to serve the transformed humans to his fellows, when TicToc stopped time, and meanwhile Bomberman threw bombs at the aliens. Mario rescued the people, so the friends could save the world from evil Heini.

"Freeze Frame"
Bomberman also appears in the N-Gang comic called "Freeze Frame", where Big B, Yoshi and Diddy Kong find him and Kirby frozen in the solid block of ice.
