Casanova Frankenstein was such a good villain that Captain Amazing's alter ego got him free from an insane asylum so they could do battle again. Like most people in the Mystery Men Universe, Casanova didn't have any obvious powers, but he did have a mind so brilliant that he drove other scientists insane with the math needed to create his Psycho-Fr...
The Blue Raja is neither an Indian prince nor does he even wear blue, but he does have an uncanny skill at hurling... silverware? To be clear, he's not going to throw knives, he uses forks and spoons. In an awesome display of efficiency he was able to throw a fork into Casanova Frankenstein's limousine, have it bounce off the interior of the doors ...
The Bowler was one of the few people on Mystery Men with actual super(ish) powers. The spirit of her father, Carmine, was trapped inside her bowling ball, allowing it to be fantastically thrown and return, much like Thor's hammer, Mjolnir. She impresses everyone when she shows up for tryouts at The Shoveler's house. Janeane did a great job consider...
As ridiculous as the Shoveler character may seem, shovel fighting had to be done often by the infantry during World War II. Infantrymen would dig ditches and if attacked would use their shovel to fight if they didn't have time to arm themselves. The Shoveler was played by William H. Macy, who is currently playing the character of Frank Gallagher on...
Cursed by a gypsy, The Spleen is someone who basically has weaponized farts. He looks gross, his powers are gross, and you never want to pull his finger. Because of his heinousness, he's reluctantly accepted on the team. The Spleen was played by Paul Reubens (of Pee-Wee Herman fame), whose career took something of a dive in 1991 (look it up if it d...
Casanova Frankenstein employed a number of gangs, including the Furriers, The Frat Boys, and The Disco Boys. The Disco Boys were formed by Tony Pompadour and Tony C. Tony P. has no superpowers, just an outfit that harkens back to the 1970s, gold and silver handguns, and an undying love for disco. Pompadour makes it personal when he reveals that he ...
Invisible Boy is one of the few members of the Mystery Men that has actual superpowers (sort of). His name clearly articulates his powers, but the catch is that he can only be invisible if no one is looking at him. Seems silly, but his power does help the Mystery Men disarm a motion-activated weapon in Casanova Frankenstein's mansion. Oddly enough,...
The Shoveler, The Blue Raja, Mr. Furious, The Spleen, and Invisible Boy needed fellow superheroes they could count on, so to make sure they were getting the best of the best, they held auditions by the Shoveler's pool. Among those that showed up to try outs was Pencilhead, along with his aptly named partner, Son of Pencilhead. Does Pencilhead look ...
Also showing up to the audition at The Shoveler's pool was The Waffler. He had what most people didn't have that day: a theme song. "Gold and crispy! Bad guys are history!" The Waffler wielded The Griddle of Justice (a waffle iron that was hot even though it suspiciously wasn't plugged in) and "truth syrup" which was thankfully low-fat. Waffler, de...
If anyone was going to tame the heart of Mr. Furious, it was going to be Monica, a waitress at the local diner often frequented by Mister Furious. She was played by Claire Forlani. Furious makes flirtatious advances towards her, but she is literally not impressed. Furious continues to be macho around her but Monica eventually gives him the confiden...
