Iggy appears in various Nintendo Comics. He is usually seen with the other Koopalings. Much like Hip and Hop in the DIC cartoons, he often hangs out with Lemmy and they like to pull pranks, and often act childish and intelligent. | Iggy appears in various Nintendo Comics.

However, he got easily kidded by Princess Toadstool along with his friends by hearing that yesterday was the day of "buy your children's affections", so they release the princess because their father didn't give them affections. After Bowser told them about the fake, they attempt to get the princess back, but got kidded again by her, Mario and Luigi. Iggy asked Toadstool if she was not going to punish them, and she didn't, because today was "be kind to the turtle kid day". | ||

He, along with the others, was watching Ludwig playing videogames, but Bowser interrupts them to tell them about his plan of marrying Princess Toadstool. They soon figured that Toadstool, previously caught, escaped and chased her throughout the castle. She then escapes from the castle and crash lands near Luigi. Meanwhile, Iggy and his friends manages to catch Mario, who was freed when the "princess" gets to the castle. Bowser congratulates Iggy and his friends for kidnapping the princess, but soon the true Toadstool appears dressed as Luigi, full of bombs. The Koopalings got scared first at seeing two princesses, but then Luigi steals the keys for freeing Mario from Roy, and Iggy and co. try to chase them. Wendy trips Yoshi, that holds the key, rushing in Toadstool, and the Koopa releases an horde of [[Thwomp]]s and [[Chargin' Chuck]]s. Meanwhile, the freed Mario, Luigi, Toadstool and Yoshi fall by an aperture of the floor in the basement, where [[Reznor]]s appear. A flame produced by them lights the bomb, resulting in exploding the castle and Mario and his friends get blasted out. It is unknown what happened to Iggy afterwards. | ||

As in ''Super Mario World'', he fights Mario on top of a platform above lava. After Iggy gets irritated when Mario places a fake head over Iggy when Iggy retracts his head into his body, he burns Mario with his fireballs. Mario then scratches his hands down a board. Iggy wants the noise to stop, and then he retracts his head into the shell again. Mario then glues his opening shut, locking Iggy in that spot. Iggy then jumps around in panic, thus squirting the glue and solidifying everything, including the characters and the lava. Iggy also makes a brief cameo alongside Bowser Jr. and his siblings in volume 41 of ''Super Mario-kun'' and makes a full chapter appearance in volume 42. In the latter volume, Iggy has his Chain Chomp fight Mario and his group, however it turns against him as he neglected and left his Chain Chomp wandering in his castle until it got itself stuck in a grate, and was starving for a month until Mario and his group encounters the creature, upon which it is freed and fed by Yoshi. Iggy's silhouette is seen on the title page of volume 47, although he is set to make his reappearance in volume 48. | ||

Utilizing a heavily armed mechanism called [[King Gessō]], whose appearance is based on a large [[Blooper]]. Iggy has six cannons on his mechanism, one located in the end of six of his mechanism's ten arms. Iggy needs to be blasted repeatedly with Mario's [[Super Scope]] to be injured. Once the Blooper has taken a certain amount of damage, the Blooper's six cannon arms fall off, leaving only the head and bottom arms, and it attacks by jumping out of the water and firing cannonballs from a cannon on its face. After sustaining enough damage, the Blooper loses its remaining arms falls into the water and explodes, and Iggy is left on a piece of debris floating on the ocean, waving a white flag. | Utilizing a heavily armed mechanism called [[King Gessō]], whose appearance is based on a large [[Blooper]].

According to a storyline presented by the United Kingdom ''Nintendo Magazine System'', Iggy was the one who built the boss machines and kickstarted the events of the game, although that version of the storyline has some differences with the released game, such as claiming that the game takes place in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and that the Super Scope was constructed by [[Princess Peach]]'s palace smithy.<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) Issue #12, page 80.</ref> This issue was released between the Japanese and Western releases, and it is unknown if this was an early storyline considered for the game. | |||

Iggy reappears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. Here, he is the only Koopaling and main antagonist to be fought once. Iggy is first seen with [[Morton Koopa Jr.|Morton]], [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]] and [[King Bob-omb]] on top of [[Mount Brrr]], where they shower the land with new enemies and terrain with the help of cannons. When Mario & co. make it to [[Neo Bowser Castle]], Iggy taunts them and signals the rest of the Koopalings that they have arrived. He is later seen helping Bowser and Wendy to stop the Mario gang from obtaining one of the fire orbs needed to create Papercraft Fire Mario. Later on at Neo Bowser Castle, after the Mario gang create the bridge that leads to the Bowsers, Iggy appears at the end of the bridge with Morton and Lemmy. He briefly argues with Lemmy on who gets to press the button to fire a large cannon aimed directly at Peach's Castle before pulling out the controller and quickly pressing the button, in addition to setting a timer. At the end of the game, on top of Neo Bowser Castle, Iggy is encountered one last time along with the rest of the Koopalings, where he is fought alongside Morton and Lemmy. In his battle, Iggy summons a large Chain Chomp that chases the Mario Bros. Iggy is also running from the Chain Chomp and attempts to run into the Mario Bros. to damage them. If the Mario Bros successfully avoid Iggy, he will get tired and get damaged by the Chain Chomp and sent back to his spot in a dizzy state. He remains dizzy until it is his turn to attack again. After the battle, Iggy utters some last words, where he tells Bowser and Paper Bowser to forgive them and destroy Mario and the others before exploding. | Iggy reappears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''.

The frequent laughter on the other hand is a more consistently displayed trait. In the original ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' manual, he has a crazed laughter (downplayed in the English localization), being present as well in the in-game English dialogue of ''Super Mario World''. Before his rematch in his world's castle in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', he is heard laughing at the animal noises outside his window and laughing exhilaratingly during the battle itself. In ''Mario Kart 8'', he can be heard giggling and laughing through various parts of the race. His laughter is featured both in ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'' and in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', where in the latter, he laughs even when the Koopa Cruiser is about to explode. Similarly, in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', whenever he encounters Mario, he shouts as if he's rather excited to see him, unlike the other Koopalings. ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' has him frequently laughing when fighting against Mario. The laughter can sometimes be a way to mock people, even when they are supposed to feel fear. This aspect of the laughter is first seen in the manual of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', where he cackles and deduces that Mario must be getting nervous about his upcoming fight against him, and is seen again in ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', where the laughters are often accompanied by mockery, sometimes directed at the fear Mario is supposedly having of him.

The latter game even referenced this trait with one of his nicknames prior to entering the arena to personally challenge Mario for the yellow Big Paint Star: "The Spectacled Spanker." In ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', the taunt is limited to a laughter after the initial shout. Furthermore, in ''Mario Kart 8'' he also has a taunting laughter when he manages to hit someone with one of his items. However, despite his joking and more eccentric nature, he does have his reservations, as he mentioned once that even he wouldn't find it funny if he walked over a cliff shortly after being forced to leave Bowser Jr.'s command. | The frequent laughter on the other hand is a more consistently displayed trait.

Volume 42 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' shows that he is rather neglectful and abusive towards his pet, as he left it wandering in his castle until it was lost, starving, and stuck in a grate for one month before its encounter with Mario and his friends, and even calls it "stupid" for getting itself lost. In the same volume, he considers himself to be smart and, through his calculations (which consists of various doodles with mathematical symbols), believed he figured out how to defeat his foes. Though he claims he could easily beat Mario, he felt the reader would get bored and decided to have his Chain Chomp do away with the group instead. | ||
