Hypno-Hustler



Time for another stupid Marvel villain that rules in his own stupidness: Hypno-Hustler! Created in the height of disco, HH first appeared in an issue of Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man where he and his back-up singers, The Mercy Killers, attempted to hypnotize and rob some clubbers during their performance. Oooooo. I guess Spidey saved the day and the Hustler sunk back into the limbo of stupidness. Gotta dig a man with a fro and platforms, though. Outtasite.

Love stopping by here, man!... :)Always makes me laugh, and you're one prolific son-of-a-gun!

Hope all is well, compadre.

Dagan-

Yeah, he was definitely a real villain from the '70s. A lot of weird villains were created in Spidey's second title. Thanks for coming by so often. Hopefully I will continue to entertain. All is well and my best to the wife and kid.
