Q&A with author Jon Morris

What inspired you to write a series on regrettable comic book characters?

We’re in the middle of a superhero boom in movies, but most of the heroes who are getting a shot at silver screen success are the flagships characters—X-Men, Batman, Hulk, Thor, Superman—the characters who always get all the attention. I thought it would be fun to shine a light on the lesser-known characters.

What type of research did you do?

Over the course of my lifetime, I’ve read literally tens of thousands of comic books. For the series, I reinvested in a small library of several hundred more books, dove into public domain archives, and started up conversations with comics scholars on three continents!

Who is your favorite regrettable superhero?

I have a great deal of affection for The Red Bee, a two-fisted assistant district attorney whose sole superpower was that he had trained a single bee, named Michael, to help him fight crime. I like to say of him, 'Few have tried so hard to do so much with so little'.

DC Comics: Super-Villains: 100 Greatest Moments

Thanks to notions of what a hero is— steadfast, loyal, true—their opponents tend to be a more colorful lot. But does an antagonist have to be truly vile to fulfill their role in a story? Not at all.

They need a convincing motivation that places their goals in opposition to the protagonists’, and as their ideals clash, readers are entertained and educated. The best villains are the ones who see themselves as the hero, doing what must be done for the greater good.

In the pages that follow, you will see the villains at the peak of their achievement, committing heinous acts of death and destruction. They challenge the heroes and their ideals, seeing the caped and cowled figures as obstacles to be overcome.

Now cue the music (in a minor key, of course) and step into a world seen from the antagonists’ point of view.

ARES

Of all the gods, the one who interfered the most with Princess Diana was Ares, who sought to plunge Man’s World into eternal warfare. Ares took control of a human who piloted Steve Trevor’s Air Force plane, crashing it into the hidden island of Themyscira. He intended to ignite a nuclear conflagration between America and Russia but instead helped prompt Diana to leave home for Man’s World and become the heroic Wonder Woman. He seethed after being defeated and sought revenge.

A HERO NEEDS A VILLAIN

HEROES AND VILLAINS, PROTAGONISTS AND ANTAGONISTS. THE ETERNAL CONFLICT BETWEEN good and evil has played out in one form or another. Today’s comics are the stuff of myth, and for there to be a good story, conflict is a must. But the villains come in a broader array of shades, colors, and motivations than ever before. They are victims; they come from alien environments with different morals; they are driven by desperation or hatred.

In every case, they are opposed by those fighting the good fight, to preserve the world’s innocents and protect the city—or the country, planet, space sector, galaxy, reality. As mighty as DC Comics’ heroes are, there are far more threats scheming to overcome these opposing forces.

In the hands of skilled writers and artists, these matches remain entertaining—and often educational—reading for generation after generation of readers.
