Characters:

Virgil Villain (villain):
Virgil Villain (villain)

Virgil comes from a long line of Super-Villains. Although he graduated from Luna Tech with full villainy honors, he still doesn’t quite measure up to his family’s expectations. He inherited Evil Island (and the Evil Villain Island Lair) from his father. Constantly at odds with his nemesis, Guy Goodman, Virgil Villain never seems to find the time to carry out his evil schemes.

Powers: Super Strength, Sinister Planning
Weakness: Doesn’t Like Mauve or Paisley

Weevil (henchman):
Weevil (henchman)

Weevil is Virgil Villain’s henchman, but he’s really more of a pet. He loves cheese… a lot! Created in a secret government lab (SPORGE), and sold in a army surplus garage sale, he’s as lovable as a blob-like creature can be.

Powers: Squeezes Through Small Spaces, Eats Cheese

Guy Goodman (hero):
Guy Goodman (hero)

Guy is a hero’s hero! But like Virgil, he’s never quite able to please his family with his accomplishments. Gifted with super powers and lacking in brain power, this beefy dude is always ready for action! (even if it’s just a pizza run).

Powers: Flight, Electric Blast Hands, Mullet Confusion (rumored)
Weakness: Distracted by Stamps and Coins

Sparky (sidekick):
Sparky (sidekick)

Sparky is Guy’s invaluable sidekick, and without doubt, the smartest one of the bunch. He got the job by answering Guy’s Craigslist advert. When the team is in a bind, you can count on Sparky to use his keen intellect and McGuyver-like skills to save the day.

Powers: Electric Guitar, Super Smarts

Announcersaurus (announcer):
Announcersaurus (announcer)

Announcersaurus (aka Vocaliter Prodigiosum, aka Dino-Mike) is the unseen voice that guides viewers from the start to the end of every episode. Sometimes the others even seem to hear him… weird!

Powers: (*Classified*)

Doc Matter (therapist):
Doc Matter (therapist)

(Warning! Spoilers for episodes 2 thru 4)

Doc Matter is a licensed therapist. He’s privy to secrets about all our heroes and villains. He also used to work for SPORGE Labs, and possibly even created Weevil! (or maybe he’s just messing with our heads)

Powers: Talking, Listening, Saying “Hmmm…”
Weakness: Allergic to Cheese
