Bongo Comics
In the comic "Sandwiches are Forever", it's revealed that Hank Scorpio was imprisoned in a Turkish prison for trading ray guns. Homer Simpson was thrown into the same cell as he was after trying to sneak a sandwich out of Turkey. After the guards take a bite out of the sandwich and died of food poisoning, Homer and Hank escaped the prison.
In the comic "Lisa Goes to Camp", he has a son often referred to as "Gold Star". His son displays many similar characteristics such as a desire to take over the world. He dresses identically to his father.
Behind the Scenes
Hank Scorpio is a parody of British Billionaire Richard Branson. Scorpio's character parodies evil villains from James Bond movies, especially Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Unlike the Bond villains, however, Scorpio genuinely seems to care about the well-being of his people. Even having a heart-to-heart talk with Homer about his family decision to move in the middle a battle in his corporation and giving a football team to Homer as thanks for his help, semi-fulfilling Homer's lifelong dream he told him earlier.
The episode "You Only Move Twice" has a Bond-esque closing song (a direct parody of the theme to Goldfinger), which plays during the end credits.
