Comments: The Brain in all his disembodied glory! Poor guy. The issue of The Outsiders where he asked Mallah, “Why won’t you just let me die?” tugged at my old heart strings. Yet, Mallah continues in his quest to acquire a suitable body for the love of his life. Good thing this is fantasy or else The Republicans would have gotten involved with his “right to life” and we’d have another political mess on our hands…
Anyway, Brain is your basic mastermind villain and has Monsieur Mallah as his trusty sidekick/lover.
And heeeeeeeeeere's Mallah!

Comments: And here is the other half of the team, Monsieur Mallah. Mallah is a genetically enhanced talking gorilla with a genius level intellect. Who happens to be in love with the disembodied brain of his creator…yeah, I know, kinky. But hey, that’s the state of modern comics, good folk.
I made Mallah pretty formidable because every time I’ve seen he and Brain, they have been taking on like a whole super team and holding their own, so I even considered making him a higher PL but with that Gadget power and the help from Brain, they can cause lots of trouble for a Titans or X-Men type of team.
