Necessary Evil: Super-Villains of DC Comics (2013)

What makes a good comic book villain? And what do they need to do to be categorised as a SUPER-villain? Do we even need them in our comics? This documentary attempts to answer such questions by asking the creators directly. Topics such as motivation, ego and tragedy are discussed and stretched beyond their topical value.
Keep your finger on the mute button because every second word Geoff Johns utters from under his GL cap is pure spoiler. He sure knows his stuff, but it’s as if he’s programmed to ruin storylines. He’s the villain of this one.
