History

The Buzzard was an antropomorphic possum living in Earth-8311, known as "Larval Earth". He had artificial wings he could use to fly.

A criminal, the Buzzard prepared an evil scheme to cheat people using counterfeit bus-transfers. Although the Buzzard believed to have planned every possible contingency, the super-hero Spider-Ham could trace the con up to him, and they started a physical conflict.

The Buzzard was flying during this conflict, using his artificial wings to do so. Spider-Ham grabbed the Buzzard's tail and, at that point, the combined weight of both Spider-Ham and the Buzzard was too much for the wings. The wings started to crumble, and both the Buzzard and Spider-Ham started falling towards a suburb of the city, one that Spider-Ham recognized as the living area of editor J. Jonah Jackal. The Buzzard panicked and believed that the crash would mean the death of both him and Spider-Ham.

Spider-Ham however used his webs to dangle at the last minute, while the Buzzard crashed against the street. The Buzzard stopped moving, although Spider-Ham noticed he was not as hurt as he was pretending to be. Nonetheless, the Buzzard remained immobile until the Police Super-Villain Squad came to arrest him.

Buzzard joined the Swinester Six to defeat Spider-Ham, alongside Dr. Octopussycat, Mysteriape, Eelectro, Sandmanatee and Green Gobbler. They kidnapped May Porker, Mary Crane Watsow and J. Jonah Jackal and held them a tea party. Buzzard went to the Daily Beagle to tell them they had kidnapped them and would exchange them for Spider-Ham. This alerted Peter to the kidnapping, who followed Buzzard back to their hideout. After a short fight he captured all of the Swinester Six and the group was arrested.

Paraphernalia

Transportation

The Buzzard has artificial wings that allow him to fly, but they can only carry the weight of one person: Should a second person try to fly at the same time, the wings would start to dismantle.
