Lucas Lee

Lucas Lee is an antagonist from the Scott Pilgrim comics, video game and film.

Lucas is Ramona Flowers' second evil ex. Lucas is a skateboarder turned sell-out actor who is shown as the star in a number of cheesy action movies, only having one movie that was deemed "kind-of good", called Let's Hope There's a Heaven and an upcoming romantic comedy called You Just Don't Exist with Winifred Hailey. He is the primary antagonist of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Volume 2, although Scott Pilgrim repeatedly confuses him with Lucas "Crash" Wilson of Crash and the Boys and the real-life actor Luke Wilson from Bottle Rocket. His name is a reference to Jason Lee, a real life pro skateboarder turned actor.

In the Heroes Coalition fics, Lucas is a member of the Dark Forces and is part of the Dark Forces' Seven Deadly Assassins and the Summoner's Entourage.

Appearance
Lucas is a large muscular young man with dark thick buzzcut hair and a dark chin curtain beard. He wears a black tight t-shirt over a dark leather jacket, dark gray jeans and black shoes.

Personality
Despite the rugged apperance, smoking, and being one of Ramona's Evil Exes, Lucas seems to be a decent guy who just never got past the breakup. After punching Scott in the head and tossing him into the upper stories of Casa Loma, he offers to take a break with some baby carrots, Gatorade, and Ritz crackers from his cooler. He also cries when talking about how Ramona cheated on him, but insists he's "super tough and cool". He is also a total sell-out as he's willing to let Scott bypass their fight by handing over all his money, but has some level of pride when challenged by Scott to grind the rail leading down from Casa Loma, causing his own demise.

In the movie version, Lucas is much more of a traditional bad guy, who doesn't give Scott a break or talk to him about Ramona. He is both arrogant and condescending towards Scott and is not afraid to pull dirty tricks, such as using his stunt doubles to fight Scott, or pretending to offer Scott a break only to beat him up further.

Abilities
Although he is a talented skateboarder and actor, he has no known special powers. One can argue he has abnormal super-strength, as he tossed Scott 5 stories up into Casa Loma's tower, and enhanced balance, as he nearly clears the grind he's challenged to, but most seem to be capable of these things. He is very strong and the only member of the League to single-handedly beat up Scott to the point of knocking him out without the use of powers (though it is arguable that Ken and Kyle did such, though they do not render him unconscious as Lucas did).

While people getting knocked flying or into the air by kicks and punches is normal in Scott's world, Lucas' strength exceeds all and this may be his power. The others have powers that are more or less non-physical (ex. pyrokinesis, veganism) which is why it seems he does not have one.

Lucas states that the League of Evil Exes almost did not recruit him. This may be because he has no obvious special powers like the other evil exes. This may also be because Lucas seems the least "evil" of all of them, as he takes a somewhat cordial attitude towards Scott.

In the Heroes Coalition fics, Lucas is stated as a Cursed but his true capabilities are yet to be demonstrated.

Trivia

 * One of Lucas Lee's movies is visually similar to the River City Ransom-esque flashback that Scott has at the start of Volume 2. This foreshadows Volume 6's revelation that this memory is fake.
 * One of Lucas' movies is seen in the newspaper that Wallace was seen reading near the start of the movie, a Lucas Lee poster can also be seen on the bus after the fight with Matthew Patel .
 * Lucas' character has several references to the number 2. His trailer, caravan, and car, all have the number 2 on it, he performs his fatal grinding trick on a staircase that has "like 200 steps", he and Ramona only dated for 2 months after he asked her out 92 times. When talking to Scott for the first time, he says: "The only thing keeping me and her apart is the two minutes it's going to take to kick your ass.". He also has a 2 tattoo on his neck and both his name and skate company logo is made out of 2 L's.
 * One of Lucas Lee's movies You Just Don't Exist is named after the song of the same name from Plumtree's album, "Predicts the Future."
 * This song was also covered by Bryan Lee O'Malley's one-man band, Kupek in his "B is For Kupek" album.
 * Three of the other movies are also named after songs by Plumtree. Thrilled to be here, from the album "This day won't last at all"; The game's over from the album "Predicts the Future"; and Let's hope there is a heaven from the EP "Flutterboard".
 * In the comic book, when scott brings a list to the video rental shop, Kim mentions that they are five movies, and let's hope there's a heaven is the only good one, the other ones were bad. Lucas Lee is filming a sixth movie, which is the number of songs in the EP "Flutterboard" by Plumtree, which has the song Let's hope there is a heaven. This could suggest an obscure reference to Brian Lee O'Malley's opinion regarding the EP.
 * In the comic, Lucas had long hair in his youth, but in the film, in his youth he had the same hairstyle he currently has.
 * Lucas doesn't seem to know that Todd Ingram is the guy Ramona left him for.
 * One of his stunt doubles is played by Reuben Langdon (in heavy makeup), who also voices Ken in Street Fighter IV and Dante in Devil May Cry 3.
 * In the film, Lucas is the only Evil Ex not fought and defeated in a club or venue.
 * Lucas Lee's fight was also the only one shot on location, all the other fights were shot in studios.
