1. The Monocle

I didn’t have to read one word about this dude before I decided he was going on the list. I just had to see his name. If you’re gonna build your super villainous identity around having a monocle, you have my utmost and undying respect.

Jonathan Cheval ran an optical shop in 1945 New York. During that time, he learned to project radiation through various lenses, because I guess you gotta do something with all that free time on your hands.

Cheval got screwed over by the bank and decided to get revenge as…The Monocle. In this guise, and using his super powerful monocle, he murdered five of the six members of the bank’s board of directors. But he was halted by Hawkman and Hawkgirl before he could kill the sixth. God, this whole list is nothing but Captain Marvel supporting characters and Hawkman villains.

Somehow, I can see how “guy with monocle” lost against screamy murder guy with a battle axe who can fly. That monocle isn’t of much use, it seems, when it’s been smashed with a mace.

And there you have it, another list of charmingly weird DC characters. And with this one, we’re halfway through the alphabet! So, good job, fans, we’re halfway there. We may or may not also be livin’ on a prayer, but that remains to be seen. See y’all next time.
