A Tribute to the White Skull


One first met the White Skull on the pages of www.joinroach.com. From there, his devilishly diabolical writings were revealed in the Blog attached to the website. His work extends beyond however, and in as much as I've found, including youtube, he remains consistently superior. As such, the White Skull remains one of the most cunning and ruthless villains you could ever meet, and his skill with diplomacy, decorum, humor, and no small amount of sheer genius was, and still remains a revelation.

His ruthlessness was legendary. He could break a hero with a paragraph of text, and a small picture. He flakked for the Potentate like a political appointee, and disciplined the hordes when the chaos grew restless. Many were the tears he tore from the heroes, as they lay sobbing ruined shells of their previous selves, their self doubts and inadequacies laid bare for all the world to see.

From his desk aboard the Damocles, the White Skull proved that you could take a banishment from the Potentate, and turn it into a career break. Free of the day to day minion work for the Leader of ROACH, he was able to develop his own master plans, and took the territory of San Diego uncontested.

The wake of broken heroes is too numerous to recount here, but let one try and recount a few of the most memorable victories;

Mr. Extreme. Tothian. Master Legend. Pint Sized Tyrant. Krampus. Ensignis. Psychoanaltherapist.

While some may believe the White Skull is retiring, one instead chooses to believe the White Skull has merely gone undercover to unleash the most devastating act of Evil imaginable.

So tonight, won’t you please join me, in a glass of White wine in the White Skull’s honor, as we toast to a Villain of sterling character. He didn’t leave on the downhill of his brilliance. He left at the top of his game. He will be sorely missed.

  1. I don't check the websites that often (thanks by the way for keeping me toiling without any time off) but he seems busier retired than when he was before. Hey - he's a Henchman too - does that mean I get some clout too?

  2. Ghost of Nixon,

    We shall see. You've yet to prove your worthiness. Fix the Forum! Get me some Photoshop resources.
