Documentary on DC Comic's Super Villains Coming This Year
![]()
Comic book villains are just as popular, if not more so, than the heroes they fight every month. Fans follow and adore the bad guys from the pages of Marvel and DC and now we're getting a whole new look at why we love these characters. DC has announced (via Yahoo) that they will be making a feature length documentary titled "Necessary Evil: Villains of DC Comics." Read the full press release below.
The Joker, Bane, Deathstroke, Darkseid and Lex Luthor -- the scariest and most menacing villains in DC Comics universe -- take center stage in a brand new full-length documentary from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (WBHE) and DC Entertainment (DCE). The joint announcement was made today by WBHE and DCE.
Christopher Lee, who has played the villain more times than almost any other actor, will provide his unique voice as narrator. His roles in more than 200 films include star turns as Dracula, the Mummy and Frankensteins monster in Hammer horror classics, Count Dooku in Star Wars, and Saruman in The Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit films.
In this new documentary film, the malevolent, sometimes charismatic figures from DC Comics hallowed rogues gallery will be explored in depth, featuring interviews with the famed creators, storytellers and those who have crafted the personalities and profiles of many of the most notorious villains in comic book history.
Production begins March 30, to coincide with WonderCon at the Anaheim Convention Center March 29-31.
Noted Geoff Johns, best-selling author and DCEs Chief Creative Officer, DC Comics is known for many things, but chief among them is the compelling, diverse and legendary society of super-villains who populate its universe. From the monstrous Solomon Grundy to the brutal Black Adam to the charismatic Sinestro, there is no single greater collection of villainy in all of fiction. These villains are hugely popular comic book characters in their own right and, quite honestly, many are often times more popular than some of our iconic super heroes.
Jeff Baker, WBHEs Executive Vice President and General Manager, Theatrical Catalog, added The DC brand is enjoying a huge resurgence thanks to the entire leadership team at DC Entertainment which is driving opportunities not only for new theatrical properties, but for brand extensions as well. This new documentary will reinforce this evolving strategy and leverage DC assets across the entire studio landscape.
ohns also reiterated that this years initiative will be a turning point for DCE. Its time we deconstruct these complex and sinister antagonists and celebrate the role they play as the engine and energy of some of the greatest storytelling in comics. 2013 is the Year of the Villain at DC Comics.
On Saturday, March 30th, fans attending WonderCon are encouraged to come dressed as their favorite DC Comics villain for an opportunity to be featured in the documentary Fans can join DCE at WonderCon at booth 801 with filming to take place Saturday from 10:30am Noon. To find out more about where and what time to meet in the WonderCon DC Entertainment booth, keep checking the DC Comics Facebook (Facebook.com/DCComics) and Twitter sites (@DCComics).

Thoughts?
- Joker = GOAT Supervillain
- Superman has such a vast array of villains it makes me at the sight of them using General Zod again.
- I hope that Flash's rogues gallery gets some love. He has some of the most underrated villains (Captain Cold, Gorilla Grodd, Mirror Master, etc.) in comic book history.
how many times is that jester character that fights people with toys gonna die? spidey kills him now yet i remember him getting his brain matter splattered all over in civil war by the punisher
Bane should get a new look, the AAA mexico wrestling look is losing its appeal
Would anybody know what are some of the better stories form the original/long running X factor series?
