The very good folks at io9 have a humorous but sadly very true piece on five reasons why Hyp Knox the Super Hypnotist is perhaps the world’s worst superhero of all time. See the piece at http://io9.com/5715031/5-reasons-why-hip-knox-the-super-hypnotist-is-the-worst-superhero-of-all-time and if you’re not familiar with Hyp Knox and his brand of hypnotic super uber-creepiness, see an example story at http://pappysgoldenage.blogspot.com/2009/08/number-569-macfadden-villain-bernarr.html . . . yes, he really does sleep in a hairnet, hypnotize thousands of endangered condors to throw themselves to their deaths under his plane, and use his hypnotic powers to enslave African natives. Yep, quite the uberjerk our Hyp Knox.
