Toadman and his friend

Toadman is aToad fromSuper Mario Adventures. He is either a purple-capped Toad with a purple vest and a mustache or a red-capped Toad with a red vest and swirly-eyed glasses; the comic does not specify which of the two is being addressed in the only panel in which his name is said.

Toadman and his friend were watchingPrincess Peach playSuper Mario Bros. on herNintendo Entertainment System whenToadster arrived to inform the princess that a large number ofWarp Pipes had suddenly appeared inthe castle's garden. The four then went to observe the situation fromthe castle's balcony, arriving just in time to seeBowser arrive in hisKoopa Clown Car. Peach, angered over Bowser's ultimatum to marry him or have her subjects turned into stone, accidentally hit both Toadman and his friend. Later, when Peach tried to go off and strike a deal with Bowser, Toadman, Toadster, and the other Toad attempted to stop her, putting a piece of cloth underneath her to try and catch her as she jumped out a window. However, all they managed to do was soften her landing and cause her to bounce out of their range, allowing her to escape down a Warp Pipe. With Peach gone, either Toadman or his friend had the idea of calling theMinister of Massage to reviveMario, who had been turned to stone along with some Toads as a preliminary threat by Bowser. The two then informed Mario of where Peach had gone.
