 Norbert Colon - Definition 

Norbert Colon is an occasional character in the British comic, VIZ.

Norbert's strips are usually short, rarely more than four frames each. He is a wretched and ugly looking old man who, being an extreme miser, goes to ludicrous extremes to save money.

For example, in one strip, Norbert Colon sees a pair of shoes in a charity shop for 2-pence. He promptly goes home, saws off his legs and sells his limbs to a meat factory for use in pies. Norbert gets paid 2-pence for his dismembered legs, and - rolling himself around on a makeshift skateboard - he goes back to the charity shop and buys the boots.

His first two appearances were both full length layouts. The second, a spoof of A Christmas Carol by Dickens, with Colon as Scrooge, being one of the funniest strips ever published in Viz
