A Tribute to the Noble Vulture




Thanksgiving is a day when people’s minds turn to turkeys, a victim of a bird to be sure, but not a bird for Villains. The turkey is symbolic of prey, its purpose to be slaughtered for the hunger of masses. No, for Villains, our bird should not be the noble eagle, or the humble turkey. Our bird, must be the noble vulture.

So today, on this day when minds turn to think on the value of the feast (turkey), and on family/country (eagle), join me in a fond salute to the most maligned of birds, the bird of OUR culture: The Vulture.

Evil Organizational Updates:

Agent, One saw this, and thought it might catch your fancy.

If Villains ever needed a headquarters to meet at and plot World Domination, it would have to be Las Vegas (Sin City). If not, then the backup could very well be this place.

Holiday cheerfulness frazzling your Evil Intent, and you need to bolster your Malevolence? Take the Supervillain quiz.

It's a website of Trolls, who hate Superheroes!



New Villains Found:

Wishing you and your families a happy, and safe holiday from ones’ own,

The Malignance Marches Forward!

Greetings and Lamentations,

Updates on Activities.

Sword Kane’s Supervillain challenge has ended, and we all lurk in fear of his terrible retribution. One expects to cringe, but it will be in the good sport of being a Villain.

The White Skull has come back from his retirement in Dimension Z.

The Heroes Network is doing their Election of candidates. Out of respect for my Arch Nemesis, one has chosen not to interfere, at this time.

New Villains who have come forward, or been found, and are warmly welcomed to the growing unaffiliated Army of Darkness:
Baghead
Exit Nero
Black Sun
FireKill(er)
Destructo
Dr. Overkill
Desdinova
Phatal Phyllo
Verdant Ecdysozoa
Doctor Killjoy
Russel Hantz

Blog improvements: Links for;

Hall of Evil (where a list of Active Villains are counted).
Well Read Scoundrel (A growing Library on developing and managing your Evil)
Evil Organizations (Nefarious groups of various ambition and intent)
Unto a Mountain of Cash (Villainous schemes to acquire the resources you need)
Beating on the Good (A list of locations where the weaklings hide)

Battling my Arch Nemesis Phantom Zero: No progress. If he were easy to destroy, he wouldn’t be my ARCH nemesis. There already is an Art Movement started to address this mighty struggle though.


Rant from a Villain: Observation and continuation of a theme. One notices that Villains foster Freedom. For example our Blogs are forums of free discussion, and thought provoking analysis, wherein all parties are given their earned respect. All are free to post here, w/no restrictions. In the past, and no doubt in the future, this has caused some strife, but we have taken stock, adapted, and moved on, becoming better for the pain. Compare this to Heroes. The RLSH website advises you in registering that your IPAddress will be recorded * and they routinely edit out comments they find against their groupthink. Because they sanitize thought on their side of the fence, they limit freedom and manage to effectively enslave the consensus thinking. If there is no dissent time after time, there can’t be dissent – it’s fruitless to think outside their box. Many of their forums are blocked, require a screening process, and want to ensure you are the “right kind of people”. Not so the case with the valiant Villains. Because we are open, and speak plainly, you may be assured no unlawful behavior will stem from our activities. The heroes? And their coded language, hidden agendas, and violent “street justice” mentality? Not so much. Who are your protectors? The paranoids in spandex, or the reasonable Villains?

Another observation: If one is not incorrect, it appears the Verdant Ecdysozoa pursued Crimson Nematode to this time, and the Crimson Nematode has disappeared back into the time stream to appear sometime else in the future. If something doesn’t seem like you remember, it might have been the past.

One last observation: Crushing the hopes and dreams of Heroes, and done with panache.

Herding the Minions: Comrade Cocoa remains most diligent in his duties. Bob has his rats, and Ghost of Nixon still works on the Forum. The Baronness, or one of her COSplay fans have not yet stepped forward to form an alliance with Lord Malignance.

Stay well, and keep fighting for Freedom, and Evil,

-Lord Malignance

* Checking up on the Forum, Ghost of Nixon is "trying to unlock" (!!!), one checked the registration requirements and they have the text; "An IP address of each poster is recorded in order to help us to make you respect these conditions". Compare this to the RLSH which has the text; ... ok, they're exactly the same. It's boilerplate. So, in correction: The rest is true, the IPAddress logging appears to be a function of the Forum Host.

Reign of Evil

Greetings,

One has determined that the resource of Blogging has been successfully engineered, and networking the Forces of Darkness continues apace. Attracting, recruiting, and grooming valuable talent must continue to remain a priority.

Now however, a new step is suggested. The previously initiated Engine of Malignance gamut has unfortunately failed at this time, as despite one's efforts, the Phantom, my chosen Arch Nemesis, remains elusive. The communication, and passionate interaction one hoped to exploit has failed to materialize. One's new plan unveiled is to be the "Reign of Malignance". The scheme is deceptively simple: Beat the Heroes at their own game. Find some charity, or good deed, do the work, and do it with Evil efficiency and Elan, and then ride that publicity pony on every website, and blog, and newspaper available. Think of the Penguin from Batman 2, and his sweet, seductive manipulation of Gotham's gullible media.

Of course, when scheming, you must always reflect on the move before, the precision of the move you will make, the consequence, and your next follow up move. If Engine was the first move, the next will be the Reign, then one proposes a follow up by burying some Orc-Hero with the brightness of scrutiny. By contrasting the unselfish, media-shy, humble Evil, with the Media Obsessed Narcisism of the good, the Engine of Malignance will be engaged, as the good come to the Evil.

Hide from ME, will you Phantom Zero? Watch then, as I immolate your precious World!

Your Arch Nemesis,
-Lord Malignance

Strategems

Greetings and Lamentations,

The year end draws near, and the time has come to think about plans for the coming year. One has been pondering our inevitable conquest of all our desires, and have come up with some notes for consideration;

1) Recruitment must become a primary objective: We will harvest much pretenders and frauds, and Minions with delustions of grandeur, but the process has the opportunity to reap some talent, and some refinable resources. We don't yet have critical mass, and one suspects this may now be holding us back.

2) My contribution to the Master Calamity Challenge;






One believes Master Calamity will concur as I say the winner of this years challenge has been Agent Beryllium. Well done madam, the gleeful Evil and sheer fun of your activities is an inspiration to us all.



3) Staff Pictures;

Ghost of Nixon (Currently Henchman #1)











One is advised he is working on glowing effects, and this is not some Southern California thing. He crouches most expertly.

Comrade Cocoa (the Henchdog)











Who does not yet have his Mao Hat, despite one's own efforts. When the hat appears, he has a Mao picture to stand with. He is very dilligent in his duties. Always crouches.

Graf Orlok (Bob the Minion)












Crouching in the Shadows, awaiting the commands of his Master, Lord Malignance. Or creeping around.


4) Blog Talk Radio: Ghost of Nixon suggests "Carpet Bombing" some topics on them to elicit on On-Air Flame War. A little passion could be a useful recruiting tool. The Pay-as-you-Go phone works well for this, and other purposes.

Creature Feature hosted by the Villainess Executrix

Meow and Friends hosted by the insufferable Apocalpyse Meow and Zetaman. They NEED to hear from Villains. They're so good it's depressing.

5) Haiku to my Arch Nemesis;
Shadow Intellect,
Mind of All SuperHeroes,
A Phantom Target

6) Even though the Baroness and the Women of Cobra did not call me, GI Joe, the Rise of Cobra is out on DVD: Ideas for Villains with lots of cash.

7) Forum Rainmakers: Following the example Agent Beryllium pioneered, one believes it may be possible to post in many different blogs and disseminate links to draw potential recruits to our doorstep.
8) Youtube Video Recruitment: Time to make the appeal to the Villains and the audience there, and bring them to us. This has been attempted, but can perhaps never be left unexploited. The audience is quite large.
9) One is making it a goal to try and bring in 3 new Minions to the ranks of the Evil: They might claim Villain status, but one hopes to have them start humble, and serve. It's a goal.

Keep up all the Evil Work, and may the power you weild, bring the world to its knees,
