Enemies of the Peril Patrol, Menaces to Skyscraper City, and Persons We'd Just Rather Not Deal With

KNOWN SUPER-VILLAINS, CRIMINAL MASTERMINDS, MONSTERS, ROBUTS & OTHER NUISANCES

Skyscraper City has produced more than its fair share of costumed criminals, mad scientists, monsters, alien invaders, evil robots, and people who really ought to find something more constructive to do with their afternoons.

The following individuals are considered dangerous, ridiculous, or — in several cases — both.

SPAM

Members: Dr. Dolphin, Space Vamp, Black Mungis, The Stranger

The Peril Patrol's most persistent opposite number, SPAM is a loose alliance of super-villains united by ambition, mutual convenience, and the general conviction that the Peril Patrol ought to be stopped.

Preferably while everyone is watching.

They are not unionized.

Zambonus

Zambonus is an ancient cosmic entity whose sole purpose is to zamboni planets. He arrives without warning from the depths of space aboard the colossal Zambonifier(TM), a machine large enough to straddle continents. Once in position, he descends to the planetary surface and begins the Zambonification Process: scraping mountains flat, shaving forests down to stubble, filling oceans into neat level basins, and polishing the entire world to a smooth, gleaming finish. Civilizations, ecosystems, monuments, and inconveniently placed hometowns are all treated as surface imperfections.

Zambonus does not conquer planets. He does not destroy them out of hatred. He does not seek tribute, worship, or political control. He simply cannot abide an uneven surface.

Known For: Planetary resurfacing, cosmic maintenance, leaving worlds unnervingly smooth

Threat Level: FRESHLY RESURFACED

Mission: To zamboni planets

Weakness: Possibly rough ice. No one has been brave enough to test this.
