It starts with Lord Bedlam, who’s every bit the egotistical blowhard his costume suggests, but Stan’s squad supervisor Dave is the one who shapes his day-to-day experience. Being a henchman comes with an office culture just like anywhere else. Of course, it’s not only the job – it’s who you work with. Lord Bedlam might be a supervillain, but he’s not THAT evil. The job even comes with health insurance. It’s not the most glamorous work, but as Stan tells it, a paycheck’s a paycheck, student loans, and all that. Your typical secret lair has a lot of doors that need guarding. Stan’s life isn’t all critical missions and high-octane action though. You know, the first step in Lord Bedlam’s ultimate master plan. Our story begins with Stan in the act of absconding with 50 pounds of kibble from the local pet store. Meet Stan: your average everyday henchman in the employ of D-list supervillain Lord Bedlam.

And no, not the sidekicks and lieutenants, behind them too. Villains too – we naturally wonder what compels a person to install a death ray on their moon base and try to destroy the world. These days, it’s probably been made into a 3-hour long CGI spectacle.
