Mega Man
Guts Man is in every episode of the Mega Man cartoon series along with Cut Man. In the cartoon, all brawn and no brain would be the best way to describe Guts Man (often referred to also as "Gutsy" on the show). While Guts Man is a very strong and deadly opponent, he usually finds himself on the losing side thanks to his stupidity. This Guts Man has a very square blue jaw, where the video game Guts Man had a more round beige jaw, and this Guts Man also has grey feet with blue line while his video game counterpart has red feet. Other than that, there's not much difference.

Guts Man had his own action figure.

Captain N: The Game Master
Guts Man appears in the fifth episode of the cartoon Captain N: The Game Master.

Mega Man Megamix
In the manga Mega Man Megamix, Guts Man is taller than his video game counterpart, and his alloy is the most resistant of Dr. Light's robots. He's the last of Dr. Light's robots that Mega Man faces. As the Mega Buster doesn't work against him, Mega Man used the Hyper Bomb to damage the inner components of Guts Man, deactivating him. He is later fixed by Dr. Light to help in deactivating Wily's base. After this, the government decides to dispose all six of Dr. Light's robots for their criminal actions, but Wood Man rescues them, asking them to join Wily again. Guts Man refuses, and helps Mega Man to fight against Air Man and other Wily robots. After this event, the government forgave the six robots.

Other appearances
Guts Man appeared in the manga Rockman and Rockman 4Koma Great March, and in the Brazilian comic Novas Aventuras de Megaman. In the latter, he is named Killer and bears a resemblance to the way he appears in the cartoon.
