| Dr. Light makes his debut in the ''Super Mario'' franchise in the ''[[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' magazine comic, "[[Super Mario: Die Verwandlung]]". In this appearance, Dr. Light is portrayed much differently from the ''Mega Man'' games: he is also a plastic surgeon as well, and is highly absentminded. He is assisted by his creation [[Mega Man]] in his office. | | Dr. Light's debut in the ''Mario'' franchise was in the ''[[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' magazine comic "[[Super Mario: Die Verwandlung]]." Mario calls him for help when one day he finds that his body became pixelated over night. In this comic, Light is highly absentminded as he persistently confuses Mario with [[Link]]. Moreover, his plan to cure Mario by doubling and then merging him fails, even resulting in the creation of [[Wario]] in fact. However, at the end of the story, it is due to him that Mario returns to his normal state, as he asks Mario and Wario to press the Select buttons of their [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] controllers simultaneously, which works. After that he is called by [[Luigi]] who claims to have turned black and white. Dr. Light is assisted by [[Mega Man]] in his office. |

| Mario calls Dr. Light for help when he finds that his face became pixelated overnight. When Mario enters Dr. Light's office with a bag over his head, he confuses the plumber with [[Link]] and thinks he came to complain about his surgery. His plan to cure Mario involves creating a duplicate of him and them fusing the two, which fails when the attempt to duplicate Mario creates [[Wario]] instead. Wario then begins wreaking havoc and breaks out of the lab, but is eventually recaptured by Mario, Mega Man and Dr. Light. He finally solves the crisis by having Mario and Wario both hold an [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] controller and press the Start button simultaneously; Wario disappears, and Mario returns to his normal form, allowing Dr. Light to properly recognize him. The end of the comic shows Dr. Light answering a call from [[Luigi]], who claims to have turned black-and-white, eliciting a groan from the three of them. | |

| Dr. Light later appeared in the comic "[[Mario in Mariozilla]]". He lives in the [[Empire State Building]], doing research together with Link. Once again, Mario calls him to solve a problem: one of [[Kamek]]'s spells caused him to grow to a huge size. After recommending that the giant Mario put on a "magic cap" (which turns out to be another paper bag), Light's only advice is to track Kamek down, as he is the only one who can turn him back. Later in the story, the power of Kamek's broom shrinks him and Mario to a tiny size, and they are eaten by [[Yoshi]]. Dr. Light tries to free them by flipping Yoshi over and shaking him; when that fails, he theorizes that Yoshi could lay an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] containing both Mario and Kamek back to light. The plan works, and Light then turns them back to their normal size using a special magnifying glass.

Once again, Mario calls on him with a problem. This time, due to a bad spell of [[Kamek]], Mario has grown to a huge size. Light's only advice is to search Kamek again, as he is the only one able to transform him back. Later in the story, the power of Kamek's broom makes him and Mario shrink to a tiny size. [[Yoshi]] swallows them, which leads Light (after a failed attempt to flip Yoshi over and shake him in order to make him spit Mario and Kamek out) to the idea that Yoshi laying an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] could bring Mario and Kamek back to light. This plan works, and Light is also the one to transform both back to their normal size, using a special magnifying glass. Nothing in this story reminds of Dr. Light's absent-minded personality in "Die Verwandlung", except that he recommends the huge Mario to pull on a "magic cap" - which in fact is only a paper bag. |

After Kamek hexes Yoshi's truck full of [[Yoshi Cookie|cookies]] so that the truck begins driving on its own and the cookies cause anyone who eats them to go crazy, Yoshi calls Dr. Light for help finding a remedy. Dr. Light succeeds and eventually arrives via helicopter in time to deliver the remedy to the city where the delivery was meant to arrive, containing the epidemic. | | In "[[Blast Corps in Yoshis Knallkekse]]," the Doctor appears as a hard-working, serious man.
