MINOR SUPER-VILLAIN 025: THE MASTER

(Detective v1 030, 1939)


I like the Master because he is simultaneously brilliant enough to invent a mind control device capable of enslaving a significant portion of the US Government and dumb enough to brag about his machine to a federal agent not ten feet away from it. Machine smashing ensues.
