SAM’S SCHOOL for SUPERVILLAINSBayonne, NJLesson #17: Your InspirationMost people who get into the supervillain game do so for various reasons – greed, personal pain/revenge, becoming “fed up” with the slow-grinding machinations of legal authority, etc. It seems our case study, however, has entered the profession for the sake of who he prays to.Who – or what – you worship is, of course, your own business. But in this category, we run into a conundrum of sorts. On the surface, it would seem that worshipping the “master of darkness” would go hand-in-glove with being a supervillain. However (and maybe I shouldn’t be telling you this), those who have gone this route before all come back with the same story; the “master of darkness” is the ultimate in narcissism. Or, in plain(er) english, he just doesn’t give a rip about YOU.Whatever this talisman has to offer, perhaps our aspiring antagonist should take a cue from history. After all, possession of the “Spear of Destiny” and the Altar of Zeus from Pergamon sure did Adolf Hitler a WORLD of good. (NOTE: Heavy sarcasm employed here…)

Under Ted and Jay this strip was a showcase of wonderful art and terrific dialogue. Boy do I miss seeing new stuff every day.
