Brass Monkey
The Brass Monkey is an Astro City crime boss who, as his name implies, is literally a brass monkey. Formerly a janitor at Fox-Broome University, he used an experimental device there to transfer his mind into a brass monkey statue. He planned to use this metal body to commit crimes, but when his real body was killed, he found himself stuck in that form.
His underlings, the Gorilla Troops, are regular humans who wear gorilla masks and army camo. His primary foe is Jack-in-the-Box. [edit] Vital Statistics
