Still on the Villain Kick we have The Iron Skull.
The Iron Skull was one of the Overlord’s top Lieutenants until he was crushed by falling debris during a battle with the Guardians of Vengeance. His body crippled, the villain was saved by his master. The Overlord transplanted his underling’s brain and eyes and implanted within a cybernetic metallic skull. The Skull was then fitted to a special bio-synthetic boy specially crafted for the purpose.
Now called the Iron Skull, he eventually left the service of the Overlord taking, not only his new form but also several alternate bodies that had been created for him.
The Iron Skull can detach his head unit and swap bodies though the process does take some time. He can also ‘eject’ his head unit from its current bio-synthetic body and operate independently for a short period of time (usually as a means of escape) as the interface probes that connect the unit to a body can also function as impromptu legs. The unit also has a small propulsion unit that allows it to fly at high speeds and is able to interface with mechanical and technological devices, co-opting them as emergency “Hosts”.
The default form used by the Iron Skull:

A large, strong alternate “Body
