How to be a Dastardly, Evil Archenemy
Created | Updated May 26, 2003
Over the Top
The first and most inportant part of being an archenemy is to be over-the-top evil.
You don't take the simple path, but you hatch a fiendish plot which could possibly be stopped by any passing superhero.
Once you have lured in a superhero, you must attempt to kill him/her/it.
Evil Laugh
You must have one. Try it now: Ha! Ha ha he ha! Ha ha he ha ha ha ha! etc.
Dress Code
Black seems to be in this season.
Special Abilities
You require none, as you can just hire others to do your dirty work, and hence escape just before a superhero gets to you.
However, special powers or gadgets will be helpful.
Keeping Cool
Many evil archenemies would become frustrated at their plans being thwarted at every turn.
However, you can console yourself that there is always next time.
Money
Although you are building machines costing millions and hiring a small empire of eminantly killable foot warriors, you need not worry.
You can finance your entire enterprise by stealing large amounts of cash from any convenient bank.
The foot soldiers do not need pay, as they will be killed, rescured or injured before pay day.
Code of Conduct
None, just give 'em hell.
