In various media, it seems that certain powerful villains have a rather inflated view of themselves. Sure, the heroes might have their leader's face as a symbol for their team, but the various Big Bads and dictators want to go a lot further than that, and will place their name absolutely everywhere. Their base may actually be shaped like them, the flags may have a stylised icon of the Big Bad in place of the Jolly Roger and heck, they might even have Mecha-Mooks and vehicles very much influenced by their appearance. This trope will also always be used if the whole "cult of personality" effect is wanted, such as in a Dystopia, as shown in works such as Nineteen Eighty-Four (along, of course, with the gigantic TV screens showing the Big Bad on the buildings and vehicles). There's also a pretty high chance such a villain will rename a city after himself. See also Cult of Personality, Conspiracy Placement, Shrine to Self, and Sigil Spam. When combined with a Cool Vehicle, see Faceship. |

In the bad ending of Sonic CD, when Eggman's personal transport is destroyed by the heroes, the EXPLOSION is actually shaped like his face. How or why he designed it to be able to do that, no one will ever know. | |

After taking over the city, Megamind had a poster with his own picture and the caption "No you can't." It parodied the Barack Obama "Hope" pictures in having a similar art style and a play on his campaign slogan "Yes we can." | |

Begins as comedy in Fallout: Equestria before deteriorating into total horror as Pinkie Pie's face ends up appearing just about everywhere throughout the wasteland, a sign of her increasing insanity as the war raged on. She was apparently of the opinion that posting her mad, smiling face everywhere reassured people, rather than gave them all horrible nightmares. | |

Nineteen Eighty-Four: Big Brother is both the Trope Codifier and an enormous subversion, because he doesn't even exist except as a symbol of the power of the state over the individual. Whether the individual whose face is on... well, damn near everything, actually... is that of some leading-light from the early days of IngSoc or was invented out of whole cloth is anyone's guess; chances are even the Party don't know. | |

In the movie Labyrinth, Jareth's face subtly appears throughout the landscape — where certain rocks line up in a shot, or depicted in shadow. Perhaps a more minor version of this, as it's clearly for the audience's benefit — to demonstrate how thoroughly entrenched he is with the fairy tale world Sarah placed him in. (Or David Bowie has a really big ego...) Or that he's scrying her in some way or another. Keeping track, so that we see him as he's watching her. | |

In the fifth Harry Potter film, the Ministry of Magic has a giant curtain with Cornelius Fudge on it. It gets destroyed in the climax. Interestingly, this is two years and two or three movies before the Ministry of Magic goes full Day of the Jackboot in Deathly Hallows; the curtain is more of a testament to Cornelius Fudge's vanity than anything else. | |

Our Miss Brooks: Mr. Conklin has an extremely large portrait of himself over his living room fireplace, as first seen in the television premier "Trying to Pick A Fight". It's Played for Laughs, as it indicative of his pomposity and his self-regard. It's worth noting, although Mr. Conklin has a wife and teenage daughter, their portraits are nowhere to be seen. The episode "Old Marblehead" sees Mr. Conklin scheming to get a bust of his head to replace that of Julius Caesar's in the school library. He makes the students and teachers pay for it by levying arbitrary fines via his "Carelesslessness code." In "Friday the Thirteenth", Mr. Conklin posts a photo of himself on the school bulletin board. He is regaled complete in black suit, black hat and midnight-blue tie. His photograph is there to suggest to students and faculty the value of proper dress and deportment. Walter Denton nails a picture of Miss Brooks' body in a French bathing suit beneath Mr. Conklin's head. In "Mr. Conklin's Wax Effigies," Mr. Conklin makes a wax statue of himself. Miss Brooks believes it to Mr. Conklin himself. "Space, Who Needs It?" sees Mr. Conklin, again pranked by Walter Denton, firm in the belief he's discovered a new planet. Conklin names it "Conklin Junior." In "Fargo Whiskers", Mr. Conklin has a small portrait of himself upon his desk. State school-board official Mr. Fargo can't stand sitting there, looking at the photgraph. So, Fargo pushes the portrait face-down. |

Bowser in the Super Mario Bros. series has an icon of his face on various evil statues, gadgetry, and the Jolly Roger flag on the airships (and a portrait of his face on the front). This is referenced in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door; having Bowser inspect one of the many statues modeled after him will make him mention that once he takes over the world, they and other pieces of "art" with his mug on them will be mandatory in all households. In Super Mario RPG, Nimbus Castle's gallery is filled with nothing but gold statues of its usurper, Valentina. Mario paints himself gold and hides amongst the statues, which lacks foresight when Valentina's mistreated goon wanders in, pecking the statues in frustration. Fawful in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. He even puts his swirly glasses in Bowser's own mugshots in the Koopa Castle, and his ugly smile in the statues in Peach's Castle. |

Kim Possible Shego did this in when she became an Evil Overlord during A Sitch in Time. Middleton got renamed Shegoton, everything was painted green and black, everyone should be wearing her clothes, and so on. Doctor Drakken put his face on his 'Lahter, Rinse and Obey' shampoo. On another occasion, Drakken punctuated his explanation of his plan to conquer Canada Drakanada by waving a little flag with the Canadian maple leaf replaced by his face. |

One Piece: Various Pirate bosses model their Jolly Roger after their own appearance. The main cast end up collectively known as the "Straw Hat Pirates", simply because their leader wears one, and he had one drawn on their Jolly Roger. The straw hat itself was originally known for being Red-Haired Shanks' symbol. It wasn't until Luffy and crew had made a name for themselves that it became associated with them. And recently it's been revealed that the straw hat originally belonged to Gold Roger himself, who looked shockingly much like Luffy before he grew his mustache; it's safe to say that the straw hat has a rich history that's only recently being noticed by the world of One Piece. |

In the Sonic the Hedgehog series, Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik's face has shown up on bases, spacecraft, and many other kinds of vehicle, Humongous Mecha, Mecha-Mooks, item containers and even a wall decoration... In the bad ending of Sonic CD, when Eggman's personal transport is destroyed by the heroes, the EXPLOSION is actually shaped like his face. How or why he designed it to be able to do that, no one will ever know. Since Sonic Adventure, Boss Subtitles show all of his vehicles are named Egg-something. |

In Bioshock, Andrew Ryan and his hated rivals, Frank Fontaine and Atlas, each have their own variant. Ryan's mug appears on Ominous Multiple Screens throughout the city, taunting your pathetic effort to stop him, in addition to his giant bust statue in the lighthouse at the start of the game. Frank Fontaine's bald dome adorns the logo for his rival company, Fontaine Futuristics (which replaces Ryan's logo after you unwittingly help Fontaine in his nefarious plot). Lastly, the city is filled with posters asking, "WHO is Atlas?", referring to the enigmatic hero of the downtrodden. Likewise, Father Comstock's posters appear throughout Bioshock Infinite. |

Batman (1989) has the Joker put his face on his vehicles, which is a tribute to this tendency of his throughout the comics of the 1940s and early '50s, where he seemed obsessed with incorporating his face into everything he used. | |

Dudley Do-Right: Snidely Whiplash puts his face on everything, including his flag. It's not the face of the actor Alfred Molina, but the cartoon Snidely's face. | |

Weasleby's Lair from Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure has this on spades. The eponymous Quintessential British Gentleman claims that the brigand's state is not what he had expected, but that his taste in decoration is "as questionable as [he] thought". | |

The banners of the rebuilt Gobwin Knob of Erfworld feature Stanley the Tool's face rendered in a style reminiscent of some Real Life Communist iconography. Something of a subversion in that it wasn't Stanley's idea, but rather a choice made by some of his high-ranking minions when they rebuilt in order to reassure his fragile ego. | |

The time traveling baddie Tempus had a liking for these on Lois & Clark. In his repeated attempts to take over America, he plastered Mayoral and Presidential candidate posters of his mug all over Metropolis, usually calling for the annihilation of 'The Enemy' i.e. Superman. | |

Lord Recluse, head honcho of Arachnos and de facto dictator of the Etoile Isles in City of Heroes/Villains, has centred his entire organisation's technology, equipment, and architecture around spiders, something of a personal symbol for the man with spider legs growing from his back. This, of course, reflects on the country Arachnos controls. | |

Regardless of whether one views the titular character of Citizen Kane as a Villain Protagonist, this image◊ certainly counts as the Trope Maker in film, beating out the Nineteen Eighty-Four novel by seven years. Since the point of the film is to tell Kane's story and let the audience decide if he is a hero or villain (or both), it is also an Unbuilt Trope. Homaged in Batman (1989), with Harvey Dent's election poster. |
