MINOR SUPER-VILLAIN 036: SETAP

(Action v1 017, 1939)


Setap is fun because she's one of the few old lady super-villains who actually is an old lady, rather than a gangster in drag. She's also pretty happy about her plan to steal youth from one of Zatara's pals, until he reverses the process and blows up her city.

Setap is also an early example of a reformed villain, as she shows up a few issues later (presumably after stealing youth off someone else, as she is young again) and enlists Zatara's help in finding her ancestral home, Atlantis
