was written by Oswalt and Blum, with art from Scott Hepburn, colors from Ian Hering, and lettering by Nate Piekos.When asked why he’s been drawn back, time and again, to the world of also-ran villains, Oswalt responded by noting that, “Comic villains are a fun way to amplify a lot of the precarious emotions and motivations that move us through a day, or a life.
As to why they gravitate to the sillier side of the supervillain equation, here’s Oswalt again; “It probably isn’t silly to them if their ability to create puzzles or punch through walls is the only way to pay their rent and put food on the table.
