Weird Trade Union | |
Interviewing Leather / int_35b429f3 | comment |
Weird Trade Union: Leather's henchmen are unionized. So are the outlaw teamsters who pack up, transport, and unpack all that cumbersome equipment you find in those constantly-being-relocated supervillain lairs. Yes. The supervillains have their own moving company. As well as their corporate affiliate, a temp agency for forensic technicians who specialize in removing evidence from crime scenes. The union makes certain its members are well compensated. That isn't the same as protecting them. They don't care if the Jack O'Knaves kidnaps an accountant or butler and implants a bomb in their head so long as he pays them their contracted rates. | |

Personal Mook | |
Interviewing Leather / int_645cd7c3 | comment |
Personal Mook: Certain specialized henches are used by various criminals. Leather employs a Steve — a professional hench whose job is to stand off to the side of a job, watching for police or superheroes. If she or her other henches get caught, the Steve's job is to leave the area without being noticed, and then call a specialized service who will arrange for legal assistance, empty out Leather's lair, destroy any evidence they can, and so forth. The Jack O'Knave designates high level personal assistants (such as his butler Mister River, his accountant Madam Bank, and his chauffeur Nickel) as the Diamonds suit (from 2-10). Diamonds run his infrastructure. Many of them are coerced into service, often through an Explosive Leash. | |

Deconstruction | |
Interviewing Leather / int_8ae880f7 | comment |
Deconstruction: Leather has a lot of things to say about Comic Book Tropes, especially those concerning Superheroes. Inverted in the last two chapters when the Super Hero Darkhood refutes pretty much everything she says, making the story a Deconstruction of supervillain motivations. Some of the parts that don't relate to those motivations still make for a good deconstruction of the rest of the genre. In Interviewing Trey the Buzzard asserts a number of inverted motivations, in particular the idea that heroes attract villains and danger — using himself as the primary example. | |

Interviewing Leather / int_9edbda07 | comment |
Elite Mooks: Used by most Villains at the third tier and above. Leather has two trained bagmen (specializing in collecting the loot from a theft), a Steve and a wheelman (who specializes in driving). The Jack O'Knaves has a number of these organized by playing card suit (from 2 to 10 — the Jack doesn't use Aces or Face Cards unless he's working an angle). The Hearts (including Trey) are highly trained assistants and performers. They're also recruited to be fanatics, often with the Jack having a specific plan to kill them right from the start. The Clubs (including Cater) are thugs and cannon fodder, though more highly trained and better equipped than the Jack's average henches. | |

Interviewing Leather / int_a0396574 | comment |
Rogues Gallery: Discussed as a concept. Leather is very much a roving professional, very much a lifestyle for the hell of it. (Neatly matching up with her name, as it happens.) But there are also villains who fixate on one hero. Worse yet, they're regarded as a good deal less sane, and a LOT more dangerous. Interviewing Trey establishes that such villains are also sometimes seen as more pathetic, especially in the lower tiers. | |

Elaborate Underground Base: The Jack O'Knaves has a number of Dispater's Pit casinos worldwide — including literal inverted skyscraper-sized hotels that go down twenty floors or more. A few of the bottom-tier villains such as Rook and Bandolier have not-so-elaborate versions, operating out of an abandoned underground parking garage (Rook) and a space beneath the maintenance bay of a used-car dealership (Bandolier). | |

Dark Messiah | |
Interviewing Leather / int_eba911fd | comment |
Dark Messiah: The Jack O'Knaves. Trey, and apparently the other Hearts, are true believers who regard him as a great visionary. | |

Trick Arrow | |
Interviewing Leather / int_ef0f881b | comment |
Trick Arrow: Badass Normal Darkhood have a lot of these, including net arrows, electric arrows and gas-bomb arrows. Partially subverted, since he also use pointy arrows. Y'know, the kind that makes people bleed. He still doesn't use them to kill people, though. | |

Dude, Where's My Respect? | |
Interviewing Leather / int_f818b637 | comment |
Dude, Where's My Respect?/Dude, Where's My Reward?: Leather seems disgusted that, while villains constantly make the Front Page of every newspaper around, heroes are lucky to get onto page four of the local press and struggle to pay off the bills. | |

Interviewing Leather / int_fa73ee9d | comment |
The union makes certain its members are well compensated. That isn't the same as protecting them. They don't care if the Jack O'Knaves kidnaps an accountant or butler and implants a bomb in their head so long as he pays them their contracted rates. | |
