10 Little-Known Supervillains That Could Make DC Millions

10. Professor Pyg

Professor Pyg is a Gotham based villain, and with Matt Reeves’ The Batman already seeming to be overloaded with villains, now might not be his time. Considering all the reinventions of the A-list villains in Batman’s roster, perhaps we’ll get Professor Pyg sooner rather than later.

There’s always more of the Bat family who could come up against Pyg at some point in the future too.

Pyg is a plastic surgeon who creates ‘Dollotrons’; physically perfect, mindless specimens. Think horror Barbies and you’re on the right lines. These Dollotrons have been kidnapped by Professor Pyg, surgically tortured and their bodies altered beyond recognition. Any trace of imperfection is either sliced away from them or results in an instant, merciless death.

The idea of a body horror in a superhero movie would be a hugely interesting premise, though it would be a brave risk for anyone to take. It’s a more niche genre, but it could also be made on a smaller budget and could be a surprise hit.

Professor Pyg might be the ace up DC’s sleeve, but only if they’re willing to play it.
