Eustace Bagge

Short Biography

Eustace is a grumpy, mean, selfish, and cruel old farmer obsessed with money and his truck. He mistreats Courage and regularly refers to him as a "stupid dog"; Eustace often simply refers to Courage as "Dog", and rarely, if ever, addresses him by name. He also regularly mistreats Muriel as well. Though Courage frequently goes out of his way to save his life, Eustace still openly dislikes him. He takes great pleasure in scaring Courage, which primarily stems from jealousy of the fact that Muriel pays more attention to Courage than him; however, he has also been known to scare Courage just for laughs or simply to get Courage to stop bothering him. When Courage manages to defeat the villain in each episode, Eustace often suffers a horrible fate, such as being mummified, possessed, eaten or ejected into space. Despite his gruff nature, he often shows compassion and has worked alongside Courage to save Muriel more than once. He is also insecure due to not having teeth, having a hunched back, and being bald. He had a father named Ickett and a manly older brother named Horst (who he never got along with) who are both currently deceased. Lionel G. Wilson originally voiced the character, but left midway through the third season due to illness and was replaced by Arthur Anderson. He is also Muriel's husband, they both married each other in 1953
