Mayor Modest, best known as Mr. Mayor, is a fictional character from the Samson and Gert comics and series. He is portrayed by Walter De Donder.
Traits[]
In the beginning, the mayor was a good, sweet and innocent man. He wasn't very bright of mind, but he did have the brightest heart. But as the series progressed, the mayor began to change a little. The mayor starts to become bossy and self-centered and he is seen to be willing to help, but only if he gets better himself by helping. He know thinks of himself as better than the ordinary people and he's no longer willing to listen to other people their opinion.
However, his clumpsy side remains and his insecure personality is shown every time that the Representative of the Prime Minister comes over. Also his love for airplanes, is a trait that he will never ever ever lose.
