King Oblivion PhD has a doctorate in the Nefarious Sciences from Ocean Trench Fortress University. He is also monarch of the tiny Eastern European nation of Explosia, a title he won in a month-long Rochambeau tournament nearly half a century ago. In his spare time, he enjoys macrame and telling his various minions to avoid referring to him as "Dr. King." When he isn't running things at the ISS's giant lair in the Earth's mantle, he likes to spend his time in Sarasota, Florida. Matt D. Wilson has written humor for websites including McSweeneys.net, Cracked.com, NationalLampoon.com and ToplessRobot.com. He runs the International Society of Supervillains website at the-iss.com. He's also one of the Bureau Chiefs that run the FakeAPStylebook Twitter account and co-wrote the accompanying book, Write More Good. When he's not thinking about villainy, he spends him time as a reporter in Chicago, Illinois.
