Welcome to Funding the Kryptonite, where we will look at the plans of comic book super villains and discuss them from a business perspective.
One of the ongoing motifs of supervillainy is the big team-up of bad guys across multiple rogues’ galleries, usually one or two from each of the main superheroes of the day. Usually less numerous than organizations like The Society, which try to get everyone on-board, an excellent recurring example from DC Comics is the Injustice League. Despite the plethora of big names on board, I’ve always wondered what the in-character rationale for having certain membership rosters is. From a publishing standpoint, these are relatively big names that sell issues. So I’m going to ask what are considered the three “true” job interview questions to see how the recruitment process stacks up for a group like the Injustice League.
