Heavy (Team Fortress 2)

"I am Heavy weapons guy... and this is my weapon."

- Heavy and his Minigun. "Oh my god, who touched Sasha? All right... WHO TOUCHED MY GUN!?"

- Heavy noticing his favorite weapon was handled by someone-else.

Heavy Weapons Guy (or just The Heavy) (Real First Name; Mikhail) is a popular class in the Team Fortress series and is depicted as a hulking brute of a man hailing from the former USSR - prone to carrying massive weapons such as mini-guns, he is a walking tank of destruction, and when partnered with a Medic, he can be the bane of many.

Heavy Weapons Guy is known for insulting opponents and doesn't care who gets in his way - be them men, babies or "tiny baby-men" - they will likely fall to his slow but devastating attacks.

The Heavy is the most iconic and the more comical among the characters of the Team Fortress universe. He is even a recurring G-mod star. He also has a love for his heavy machine gun, which he named Sasha. It's more likely a case of Heavy just loving his weapon of choice as his pride and joy than a possible case of mental illness.

Like all Team Fortress characters, he can be good and/or evil depending on what team you are in.

In the comics
Heavy has been a common character in the TF2 comic series, generally being represented as a big, tough man with a good heart. However his largest appearance yet was in Team Fortress 2 #3 A cold day in hell, which fleshed out Heavies backstory, revealing Heavy took up his mercenary job to support his family after they escaped from a Siberian gulagin the year 1941.

Heavy is also very close to his family, visiting them once a month and protects his mother and three younger sisters from Russian soldiers. Currently in the comic Heavy, his mother, and three sisters are traveling around the world looking for the Sniper, Medic and Engineer.

Received orders from Miss Pauling, Heavy teamed up with Scout as they head to Ayers Rock to investigate. Soon, they learned it's a hidden but now abandoned Australium Gold Mine. Suddenly, the two encountered Saxton Hale and Maggie who were also there looking for the missing Australiums. Eventually, the two teamed up to stop Gray Mann.
