Funny Valentine

Funny Valentine is the main antagonist of Part VII: Steel Ball Run and the 23rd president of the United States in the Steel Ball Run universe. He is a former soldier, discharged after being tortured during a war where he found the saint's heart.

Steel Ball Run
Valentine first appears riding on a train with Stephen Steel, where it is revealed that he is using the race to collect the scattered remains of Jesus Christ from across the United States.

Appearance/Personality
Originally, he is introduced as an old, stout man. After absorbing the torso of the saint, he gains a large muscular build and a more handsome appearance. He will attain the corpse parts by any means, sending assassins to eliminate Gyro for the purpose of retrieving the Saint's body.

Stand
See Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

When Lucy developed a Stand, for some reason he could use her Dimensional Wall to protect himself from others. This protection combined with the dimensional power of his own stand made him nearly invincible.

Trivia

 * Funny Valentine has an odd habit of drinking beer by poking a hole into the can and drinking from the bottom of it.
 * According to his wife, he makes no sound when he walks, and he can even play the mandolin using his feet, simply dancing on it.
 * The real 23rd U.S. president was Benjamin Harrison. Interestingly, there is exactly a one month's difference between their birthdays (Harrison's was August 20th, and Valentine's is September 20th).
 * He has numerous scars on his back which are traces of when he was tortured during war. The scars resemble the Stars and Stripes.
