This was drawn in April of 2007 as a birthday gift for one of my online chums, featuring four of his own villainy-type characters. My style has changed significantly since then, but I'm still pretty fond of this drawing.
Characters from left to right:
Criswell - A robotic butler. Since artificial intelligence has yet to produce anything resembling clinical insanity, Criswell tends to provide the sole voice of reason amongst the rest of his cohorts.
Professor Reginald Fortesque Vengeance (Esq.) - The head and brains of the operation, and a descendant from a long line of rogues, bounders, scoundrels, and cads. Megalomania is hardwired into his genes, and is second only to overdressing (which seems to make up for his very late cases of acne) as his favorite pastime and occupation. In addition to his snazzy cape and hat, he's seldom seen with his trusty cane, which seems to double as a Swiss army weapon. He's always one sugar lump short of being a walking English stereotype.
Dr. Kaos - The Professor's right hand man and heterosexual life mate, Kaos is the token mad scientist in their little clubhouse of evil. He's loopy, Scottish, and fond of robots and explosions (and robots that cause explosions). His name reminds me of "Thief of Time", which is always a plus.
The Immaculate Hunk - The brawn of the operation, Hunk is a disgraced beach body builder who can inflate his already bulky physique to Liefeldian proportions via a mysterious chemical known only as "Spit". In my mind, he sounds like Pat Waburton.
