Another villain for my reimagining of the Ben10 franchise, whom had first mentioned in my first ever Ben10 entry ( www.deviantart.com/logbot03/ar… ).

King Disco isn’t the usual bad guy that aims to conquer a planet or destroy the universe, as he ha technically already won. This guy controls the vastest criminal empire in the universe without nobody suspecting a thing, and whoever dug too deep will probably never be seen again.
Pompous, charming and full of himself, King Disco even has control over every major political event in the galaxy and has complete control over the secret services of the planets that he included in his vast criminal network.
Useless to say that this guy might be even more dangerous than any enemy that Ben has ever faced, enemies that usually end up doing the King’s dirty business for him in order to get what they want.
This formidable kingpin first heard of Ben after he stopped a group of thugs he hired to extort money from the owner of Bellwood local department store: Mr Baumann.
To test the kids skills he organized an intergalactic coliseum where Ben fought many opponents end obtained a new transformation: Glow Up.
However, King Disco never really showed himself to Ben until the young hero interrupted one of his parties, unfortunately for Ben, he had hired the Earth villain Baccano as a bodyguard and the crime lord escaped once again with little to no consequences to his vast empire.
At a certain point in the story Ben turned into Gettaway to escape with his “team” from the villain “Ultimatum” and they found themselves on a road that Ben didn’t recognize, but that felt weirdly familiar, since Gwen felt the same feeling, they ask their Grandpa for questions, as he looked weirdly distraught. Max revealed that this was the place where the two kid’s parents died in a car crash, and that Ben’s mother worked as a private detective. After many investigations, Ben realized that King Disco was actually the one who organized the “incident” and that Gwen’s parents were just unfortunate victims. Without telling anyone Ben tracked down the villain and confronted him in one of his villas.
The fact the kingpin didn’t even cared to remember what he had done drove Ben mad and after turning into Buzz-Dozer he started a fight were Ben would have been killed by the criminal if it wasn’t for his friends.
When Ben became an established hero at the age of 17 he continued to travel the world and the cosmos, and when he faced an alien threat in Sicily he discovered the origins of the murderer of his parents.
King Disco’s is an Lanterian a being of pure light whose planet got destroyed when he was but an infant.
Like many children he was sent into space by his parents and eventually landed on earth right outside a villa in Calabria, which belonged to Don Esposito Mancuso, a notorious leader of the criminal organization known as the Ndrangheta. Don Mancuso found the child and decided to raise him as his third son, naming him Carmine. After learning that he could possess any type of technology, the Don ordered to make his son a realistic robotic body that resembled a human. Carmine lived his life like any normal kids alongside his two older brothers ( Enrico and Giosuè) and his younger sister ( Catena).
The Don wanted to make Enrico inherit his empire, but he later realized that he was too stubborn, impatient and shortsighted to lead such a powerful clan as the Mancuso’s.
On the other hand Giosuè was too insecure and Catena was too kindhearted. The only possible candidate was Carmine, but the Don was terrified of what might had happened to him if his men discovered he was an alien. Carmine apparently didn’t seem to aspire to become a crime boss and was instead training to become a phenomenal musician experimenting with all kinds of music, but in reality, he was planning a huge drug deal that involved crime bosses from all over the world, as a surprise for his father and too prove he was the worthy heir. But even after these revelation, his father regretfully choose Enrico, asking Carmine to be his second in command.
Being competitive and naturally talented in everything he has ever tried, from school to music, Carmine wasn’t happy to be relegated to number two, but he cared too much for his father to rebel to his decision.
Carmine’s brother however was impatient and wanted the Empire all to himself, thus he organized his father’s and his brothers murder, however Enrico, much like the rest of the family didn’t know that Carmine wasn’t human, despite his weirdly reduced aging due to the various changes of robotic bodies that the Don used to fake his growth.
The assault happened in broad daylight, during a marriage to show the rest of the clan that Enrico meant business, but the attack only killed Don Mancuso and Carmine showed his true nature, and after getting revenge for his father murder, everyone recognized in fear that Carmine was the new boss, and after that it became a downward spiral that led Carmine to want more and more, using the technology from the cradle that took him to earth to build the technology necessary to expand his empire among the stars.
