MINOR SUPER-VILLAIN 165: THE EEL

(Blue Beetle v1 006, 1941)


What makes them a super-villain? I'll be honest. The Eel's initial plot - take over 
NYC York City 's shipping industry in order to starve and thereby ransom the city - was, while ambitious, a bit old hat and I was going to write him off as another jagoff gang boss with a decent moniker. But then! He reveals his Room of Horrors(!) where he pickles his enemies alive(!!), and, well, how could I not?
