Mr. Magico is a character and former member on shock rock band GWAR. It is known that original Death Piggy guitarist Russ Bahorsky's character in the original GWAR lineup was named Mr. Magico. However, it is not known for sure if he actually played an instrument for the band. It is believed that his replacement in Death Piggy, Steve Douglas, played guitar as Jaws of Death in the initial GWAR lineup, joined by Oderus Urungus on 2nd guitar and BalSac (Chris Bopst) on bass. It is possible that Mr. Magico was a side-character, such as The Sexecutioner.
