Voltar

to compensate for his short stature and his total lack of real powers.

1. "Leadership" and Cosmic Charisma

• Great Oratory: Voltar is a master of the dramatic monologue. He has the ability to give extremely theatrical and bombastic speeches that, surprisingly, manage to motivate his team (especially Red Menace) to follow the most absurd plans.
• Unwavering Persistence: His true superpower is that he never gives up. No matter how many times his plans fail, how many explosions he suffers, or how many times his neighbor Steve humiliates him, Voltar always gets up the next day with the same blind confidence that he will rule the world.

2. Tactical Skills (At a child's level)

• Planning of Annoyances: He has a very creative mind for detecting things that can irritate ordinary people. He knows exactly how to disrupt a bank line, how to sabotage a barbecue, or how to disturb the peace with an ice cream truck.
• Manipulation of his Team: He knows how to use the weaknesses of his subordinates to his advantage; he takes advantage of Red Menace's naiveté and strength, Doktor Frogg's scientific genius, and Doomageddon's destructive appetite to carry out his missions.

3. Moderate Physical Resistance

• Explosion Resistance: As a slapstick cartoon character, Voltar has absurd physical durability. He can survive laboratory explosions, falls from great heights, and attacks from real superheroes, emerging from danger with only a bit of soot on his face and his suit torn.

4. Use of Technology (Courtesy of Doktor Frogg)

Although he himself doesn't know how to build weapons (since he lacks scientific knowledge), Voltar has the ability to operate and devise the concepts for the complex devices, robots, and lasers designed by Doktor Frogg. He is the "mastermind" behind the lair's chaotic use of technology.
In short, Voltar's abilities are more psychological and theatrical than physical. His gigantic ego and imposing latex suit are his best tools for

Mr. Wubby (also known as Mr. Manta or Mantita in some Spanish versions) is Voltar's most prized possession and best-kept secret.
This is his childhood security blanket, a simple pink (or light lilac) design with frayed edges from use. Despite Voltar's constant efforts to be seen as a fearsome and ruthless supervillain, he maintains an extremely childlike emotional attachment to this object.

Key facts about Mr. Wubby:

• His source of comfort: Voltar can't sleep or calm down after a major failure without his blanket. When he's stressed, he secretly snuggles up to it.
• The secret of the lair: Voltar goes to great lengths to ensure that no one outside the League of Super Evil (LOSE) knows of Mr. Wubby's existence, as it would completely destroy her "evil" reputation. Even within the team, she becomes very defensive if Doktor Frogg makes fun of her.
• Motivation for evil plans: In several episodes, Mr. Wubby is the main driving force of the plot. If the blanket gets dirty, lost, or accidentally falls into neighbor Steve's yard, Voltar is capable of activating the most dangerous weapons in the lair and mobilizing his entire army just to retrieve it, treating the mission as if it were a national security rescue.
This object is the perfect recurring joke in the series to remind us that, behind his latex suits and dramatic speeches, Voltar still has the mentality and tantrums of a small child.

Plans to ruin the neighbors' day

• The Ice Cream Truck: Tried to steal all the ice cream in Metrotown and melt it so that the city's children would experience the "true despair" of being without dessert on a hot day.
• Barbecue War: He devised a plan with a supercomputer to sabotage his neighbor Steve's barbecue, trying to make his own meat the most "wickedly delicious" in the neighborhood.
• Stealing Christmas: He tried to ruin the Christmas holidays by replacing children's presents with dirty socks and coal, simply because he hated the joy of the season.

Absurd plans for domination

• Controlling the bank queue: He designed a device to alter time and space with the sole purpose of always being first in the bank queue and making others wait.
• The garden gnome army: He tried to bring to life a horde of plastic garden gnomes to invade neighbors' yards and destroy their flowers.
• Flooding the city with glue: He planned to fill the streets of Metrotown with super-strong glue so that all the inhabitants would be stuck to the ground and he could walk freely as their "leader".

Plans based purely on personal whims

• Recover Mr. Wubby: He deployed illegal military technology and heavy weaponry just to recover his security blanket, which had accidentally fallen into a neighbor's yard.
• The world record for evil: He attempted to break the record for the most failed evil plans in a single day, arguing that being the "best loser" also made him a genius of evil persistence.

Given his obsession with small-scale villainy, Voltar's (of the League of Super Evil) main pastimes revolve around causing minor annoyances and feeding his own ego:
• Planning petty evil deeds: Their favorite pastime is devising "evil" plans that are really just neighborhood annoyances, such as freezing the city's ice cream or stealing a child's toy.
• Give dramatic speeches: Spend a lot of time practicing villain monologues in front of the mirror, searching for the evil laugh and perfect body language.
• Watching TV and playing video games: He loves watching TV shows (especially superhero shows to study his "enemies") and playing on his console.
• Collecting and caring for his blanket: Secretly, he likes to relax and spend time with Mr. Wubby, his childhood blanket that he cannot part with.
• Competing against the neighbors: He spends a large part of his free time trying to outdo his neighbor Steve in any everyday activity, from barbecues to garden decoration, just to prove that "evil" is superior.

He doesn't like that Red Menace is so kind

What he likes 👍

• Neighborhood-scale plans: He is fascinated by devising absurd "missions" to control small, everyday things, such as sabotaging other people's lemonade stands or ruining picnics.
• Chocolate Fudge Bars: His ultimate culinary obsession is Fudgy Yummy Fudge Bars. He's capable of mobilizing the entire League just to chase down the ice cream truck.
• Chinese food delivery: It's their favorite option when the League stays home to plot evil deeds.
• Skullossus's approval: His biggest dream is for Metro City's most respected villain to recognize him as an equal and invite him into his social circle.
• Drama and theatricality: He loves long speeches, exaggerated gestures, evil laughter (even if he ends up coughing), and that the lair lighting is appropriate for his monologues.
• The League's musical intro: As supreme leader, he loves the energy and pomp surrounding his team's presentation.

What he dislikes 👎

• Disrespect: It infuriates him when the city's heroes, authorities, or his own neighbors ignore him or treat him as if he were a harmless nuisance rather than a global threat.
• The hero Glory Guy: He harbors a deep resentment towards him due to the humiliation he suffered in the past, which ruined his days as a school watchman.
• Things not going his way: He has zero tolerance for frustration; if a plan fails, he throws massive tantrums and immediately blames Doktor Frogg or bad luck.
• Going to the vet: He absolutely hates and fears medical visits, to the point of devising maximum security military strategies just to avoid taking Doomageddon for a check-up.
• Frogg's logic and warnings: He is deeply annoyed that Doktor Frogg tries to use science or common sense to question the feasibility of his plans.
• Red Menace's spontaneous kindness: He despairs that his "muscle" prefers to help the neighbors, to take care

Voltar's absolute favorite food and craving is "Fudgy Yummy Fudge Bars".
Throughout the series, his biggest culinary obsession isn't sophisticated dishes, but getting his hands on these chocolate popsicles. The recurring joke is that they always run out just before he can order them from the ice cream truck driver, which triggers his classic villainous tantrums.
Furthermore, regarding savory food, in the episode "Chez Voltar," he opens a restaurant serving disgusting food seasoned by Doomageddon. Although his original intention was to deceive the citizens of Metro City with horrible dishes, the plan backfires when everyone ends up loving the flavor, temporarily turning his lair into the most successful restaurant in the city.

Within the League of Super-Villains, Voltar's specialty is being the visionary, the strategic leader, and the "mastermind" of the group. Although physically the weakest and lacking scientific skills or superpowers, his role is indispensable in keeping the League together.
His true specialties within the team are: • Dynamic Plan Generator: Voltar is the spark that ignites each episode. His mind never rests; he has the unique ability to transform any everyday inconvenience (like an annoying neighbor, a broken toy, or a long line at the supermarket) into a "global-scale criminal operation."
• Motivator and Theatrical Speaker: His dramatic style and grandiloquent speeches give direction to the team. He is the one who convinces Red Menace to use his strength for "evil" and who forces Doktor Frogg to leave his laboratory to try to conquer the neighborhood.
• Resource Coordination: Although he usually ignores Frogg's advice, Voltar knows exactly which buttons to push with each of his henchmen. He knows he can use Red Menace as a shield, that Frogg will solve technical problems with technology, and that Doomageddon can be used as a chaos factor if the situation gets out of hand. In short, Voltar's specialty is pure leadership based on delusional confidence. Without his absurd ideas and stubbornness to lead, Doktor Frogg would remain isolated in his laboratory, and Red Menace would simply be another friendly neighbor in the suburbs.

• When it opens its mouth, it reveals rows of sharp teeth and a dark void.
• Abilities: He has devastating interdimensional powers. He can open portals to other dimensions, levitate, change size, become invisible, and digest any material known to man (especially metal and Frogg's inventions).
• Weaknesses: He is completely apathetic and independent. He has no interest in Voltar's world domination plans; all he cares about is eating, sleeping, and making Doktor Frogg's life miserable. If he decides to help the League, it's usually by accident or because food is involved.

🐸 Doktor Frogg (The Brain)

He is the League's mad scientist and the only member with a genuinely dangerous intellect, although he is cursed with the worst luck in the world.
• Appearance: He is extremely tall, thin, pale, and has a hunched posture. He wears large, round glasses and, instead of hands, has cybernetic robotic claws due to a past "accident" with Doomageddon.
• Abilities: He is a genius in engineering, robotics, and chemistry. He is capable of building weapons of mass destruction, clones, and giant robots from old household appliances.
• Weaknesses: He suffers from chronic bad luck. His own inventions almost always end up electrocuting him, exploding in his face, or being devoured by Doomageddon. Furthermore, he is the constant target of physical abuse in the series.

🔴 Red Menace (The Muscle)

He is a colossal giant with superhuman physical strength, but his personality is that of a cheerful, naive child, completely incapable of real evil.
• Appearance: He is enormous, broad-shouldered, and wears a red full-body suit with a black belt. He has a prominent jaw and an almost permanent innocent smile.
• Abilities: He possesses superhuman strength. He can lift trucks, break walls with his bare hands, and withstand impacts that would crush anyone, making him the perfect human shield for Voltar.
• Weaknesses: His extreme kindness and lack of intelligence. Red Menace loves nature, small animals, gardening, and making friends. He often ruins Voltar's "evil" plans simply because he prefers helping the neighbors or playing with the neighborhood children.

🐕 Doomageddon (The Pet / The Secret Weapon)

It is a chaotic and unpredictable element: a mystical creature from the "Doomiverse" (Chaos Dimension) trapped in a cute brown dog disguise.
• Appearance: It looks like a large green-furred dog with a black cape floating around it.

• Upon realizing that it was not a normal dog but a dangerous interdimensional creature capable of altering reality, Voltar decided to keep it as the League's secret weapon.
• Their relationship: Here, the power dynamics are reversed. While Voltar yells at and orders Frogg and Red Menace, he is usually much more cautious or submissive with Doomageddon. Doomageddon is completely independent, almost always ignoring Voltar's threats and preferring to eat the furniture, open portals, or bite Doktor Frogg. Voltar spends much of his time trying to "control" the creature so it doesn't destroy the lair, sometimes treating it with the fear he would have of a real monster.

The origin of how they met is explored mainly in the episode "Once Upon a LOSE", showing that their paths crossed because they were all rejected or misunderstood:

Doktor Frogg

• How they met: They met during their childhood at Supervillain Kiddy College (the kindergarten for villains). Frogg was a child genius but extremely unlucky, and Voltar saw in him the brilliant mind he needed to execute his plans for world domination.
• Their relationship: It's a dynamic of pure comic exploitation. Voltar treats Frogg tyrannically, completely ignoring his logical scientific warnings and blaming him for absolutely all of the League's failures. Even though Frogg is the only genuinely intelligent member and often resents Voltar's absurd orders, the reality is that he never abandons him. They need each other: Voltar provides the delusional confidence that Frogg lacks, and Frogg provides the technology that Voltar doesn't know how to build.

Red Menace

• How they met: They crossed paths at a mundane job before the League became completely evil. Red Menace worked as a cheerful newspaper delivery boy (or similar jobs in the suburbs). Voltar was impressed by his colossal physical strength and decided to recruit him as the organization's "muscle."
• Their relationship: It's the most tender and loyal relationship in the series. Unlike Frogg, Red Menace genuinely admires Voltar and sees him as a brilliant leader and a great friend. Voltar constantly takes advantage of Red Menace's naiveté and blind obedience to send him to do the heavy lifting or use him as a human shield. However, Voltar also harbors a secret affection for him, tolerating his childish moments, his love for animals, and his endearing lack of true malice.

Doomageddon

• How they met: Red Menace found him and originally adopted him as a "lost pet".

Voltar and the rest of the Super Evil League live in a quiet suburban neighborhood within Metro City, the main metropolis where the entire series takes place.
Their exact address and the environment where they live have very specific details:
• The ordinary suburbs: His giant helmet-shaped lair is located on a perfectly normal residential street, surrounded by traditional suburban houses with manicured lawns and white picket fences. His neighbors are ordinary families, accountants, and working people just trying to live a quiet life.
• Metro City: This is the vast metropolis visible in the background. It's a futuristic and gigantic city, protected by the Legion of Glory (the most famous superheroes) and constantly threatened by real-world villains of global scale who operate from volcanoes or space stations.
• The paradox of his location: The series' recurring joke is that, while the heroes and major villains fight in the center of Metro City destroying skyscrapers, Voltar prefers to stay in his residential area. For him, conquering Metro City doesn't begin with overthrowing the government, but with completely dominating the streets of his own neighborhood and subjugating the civilians who live next door.

The base of operations for Voltar and the League of Super-Evil is known simply as The Lair. Unlike the secret headquarters of other villains, theirs is located in the middle of an ordinary residential neighborhood in the suburbs of Metro City.
Its most fun and iconic features include:
• Eye-catching structure: The exterior design is anything but subtle. The house is shaped like a giant villain's helmet with glowing yellow eyes and two antennae on top, vaguely mimicking Voltar's appearance. It stands out ridiculously among the neighbors' ordinary houses.
• The chaotic interior: Inside, it combines the aesthetic of a mad scientist's laboratory with the comforts of a family home. It features a command center with screens, Doktor Frogg's laboratory full of dangerous inventions, a communal kitchen, and a living room where they usually sit and watch television.
• "Defense" systems: The Lair is equipped with traps, laser beams, armored doors, and security systems designed by Frogg. Ironically, these systems almost never stop intruders, but they do end up trapping, electrocuting, or accidentally attacking League members themselves.
• Capsule Launcher: To carry out their neighborhood missions, the base has a launch system that fires transport capsules. However, due to poor planning, these launches usually end with the League crashing directly into the neighbor's yard.
• Community Issues: Being located in a suburb, the base is constantly at the center of mundane disputes. Voltar has to deal with city inspectors for violating building codes, complaints from the residents' association about noise, and the fact that Doomageddon eats the plants in the neighboring garden.

Acquaintances and Rivals from the Criminal Underworld

Voltar desperately seeks status within the villain community, leading to some very comical interactions:
• Skullossus: An imposing space villain with a flaming skull. He is Voltar's hero (or rather, anti-hero). Voltar is obsessed with getting his attention and being his friend, but Skullossus usually ignores him, finds him annoying, or doesn't even remember his name.
• Line-officer von Pantaloon (Bundlington): His archenemy since childhood at villain school. They constantly compete to see who is the "most evil," which usually triggers absurd fights over insignificant things.
• Cougar: A high-level, feline-themed villain. Similar to Skullossus, Voltar desperately tries to impress her in order to gain entry into the social circle of respected villains.

Enemies (Superheroes and Civilians)

Anyone who tries to thwart his plans, or worse, who doesn't take him seriously, becomes his mortal enemy:
• Glory Guy: The city's most famous, arrogant, and egocentric superhero. He is Voltar's sworn enemy and directly responsible for Voltar's decision to turn evil after humiliating him in the past.
• General Sargent: The leader of the city's military forces. He is a very stern man of action who constantly ends up dealing with the League's disasters, although for him Voltar is just an annoying nuisance rather than a real threat.
• Neighbors and Civilians: Ordinary people like the grocery store clerk, the mail carrier, or neighborhood children. For Voltar, the mere fact that a child sets up a lemonade stand in front of his lair is a declaration of international war.

Friends, Allies and Subordinates (LOSE)

Although he sees them as his "henchmen," deep down this peculiar group is the closest thing he has to a family:
• Doktor Frogg: He's Voltar's right-hand man and the group's mad scientist. Although Frogg is genuinely brilliant, Voltar treats him tyrannically, ignores his logical warnings, and blames him for absolutely every failure. Even so, they depend on each other.
• Red Menace: The muscle of the team. He is a good-natured, naive, and nature-loving giant. Voltar takes advantage of his strength and blind obedience, but Red Menace is the only one who truly admires Voltar and genuinely sees him as a great leader.
• Doomageddon: An interdimensional creature resembling a hellhound that acts as the group's mascot. Voltar has a certain respect (and fear) for him, as Doomageddon often ignores his orders and prefers to eat the furniture or open portals to other dimensions.

• Tiny stature: He is extremely short, being the smallest member of the League (even shorter than Doktor Frogg). His head is disproportionately large compared to his body.
• Red military suit: He wears a completely red, high-collared uniform with black details. The suit resembles a dictatorial military coat that reaches his knees.
• The Supreme Helmet: His face is almost completely hidden by a large red helmet with an integrated black visor or mask. Two small black antennae or horns protrude from the top of the helmet.
• Gloves and boots: He wears tall black gloves that he constantly uses to dramatically point at people, and heavy black boots that make a comical noise when he marches or throws tantrums.
• The hidden face: On the rare occasions when details are visible behind his visor, Voltar is revealed to have pale blue or grayish skin and completely dark eyes with small, glowing yellow pupils. He has no visible nose.
(does not wear a cape)

Despite his plans always ending up destroying his own lair or exploding in Doktor Frogg's face, Voltar's story is one of absurd perseverance. He never gives up and always ends each day convinced that tomorrow will be the day he finally conquers the world.

The League Foundation and the Lair

After swearing revenge against superheroes, Voltar recruited his three peculiar companions to form LOSE. They settled in a suburban house shaped like a giant helmet that stands out ridiculously among the normal houses in the neighborhood. From there, Voltar coordinates what he considers "high-level operations," although to the rest of the world they are just neighborhood nuisances or issues of coexistence.

His Great "Evil" Achievements

Throughout his missions, Voltar has spearheaded plans that, in his mind, are catastrophic:
• The toy assembly line: Tried to sabotage Christmas by altering children's toys to make them dangerous and destructive, though they ended up being merely defective and annoying.
• Controlling the weather: On one occasion he tried to use a machine to ruin neighborhood picnics and force everyone to stay indoors watching bad television.
• Evading fate: He spent an entire day planning complex strategies just to avoid taking Doomageddon to the vet, treating it as if it were a raid on a top-security military base.

Rivalries in Metro City

Voltar's story is not complete without his constant clashes with other figures in the city:
• The obsession with Skullossus: Voltar desperately seeks the approval of Skullossus, the most feared and respected villain in the world. Much of his action stems from the desire for Skullossus to acknowledge him as an equal, even though the latter barely knows Voltar exists or sees him as a mere distraction.
• Disdain for the Local Justice League: Despite being a villain, the city's heroes often ignore him because his crimes don't pose a real threat. This deeply frustrates Voltar, who goes to great lengths to get the attention of the defenders of good and prove that he is dangerous.
Despite accumulating failure after failure and their plans always ending

• His past as a school hero: Surprisingly, Voltar wasn't evil in his early days. He used to be an extremely strict and heroic hall monitor at a school for children with superpowers. His obsession was protecting other children from any danger or injustice.
• The trigger for his evil: His life changed drastically after being publicly humiliated by Glory Guy, the city's most famous and egocentric superhero. The Legion of Glory's rejection shattered his desire to do good, leading him to turn his back on heroism and vow to become the most feared villain.
• His first criminal act: As revenge against society, his first officially "evil" act after turning to the dark side was to ruin a school prom.
• Education and rivalries: Later, he attended a sort of kindergarten for villains known as the Supervillain Kiddy College. It was there that he forged a bitter rivalry with Bundlington Von Pantaloon III, who would become one of his recurring nemeses.

• High-pitched and strident tone: Although he tries to sound imposing and terrifying, his natural voice is quite high-pitched, squeaky, and prone to cracking or turning into a shriek when he gets excited or throws a tantrum.
• Excessive use of "evil" adjectives: He rarely refers to things in a normal way. For Voltar, everything is "diabolical," "sinister," "supreme," "destructive," or "evil." A simple plan to steal ice cream becomes an "operation of icy desperation."
• Monologues and grandiose speeches: He is fascinated by the sound of his own voice. He constantly interrupts what he is doing to give long, impassioned speeches about how he is going to conquer the neighborhood or Metro City, accompanying his words with exaggerated gestures.
• The classic evil laugh: In virtually every episode he attempts to do a prolonged evil laugh ("Mwahahaha!"), which often ends in a coughing fit or interrupting himself because he runs out of breath or gets distracted.
• Third person: He sometimes speaks of himself in the third person to give himself greater importance and status (for example, "No one challenges the great Voltar!").
• Dramatic shouting and insults: When things don't go his way (which is almost always), he usually shouts the names of his subordinates in frustration, especially pointing at Doktor Frogg in an accusatory tone.

• Arrogance and Narcissism: He is completely convinced of his own superiority and genius. He believes that the whole world should fear him and that his neighborhood plans are "the crime of the century".
• Excessive Theatricality: He cannot do anything simply. Everything in his life requires dramatic speeches, exaggerated evil laughter, grandiose gestures, and appropriate lighting to instill "terror".
• Maturity of a Toddler: Throws massive tantrums when things don't go his way, is incredibly impatient, and gets frustrated extremely easily. His motivations often stem from childish revenge or whims.
• Absolute Stubbornness: He never admits a mistake or that a plan has failed because of him. If something goes wrong, he will always blame Doktor Frogg, Red Menace, bad luck, or a conspiracy against him.
• Hidden Cowardice: Despite his constant rhetoric about power and domination, Voltar is physically weak and easily frightened. When faced with real danger or a truly imposing villain (like Skullossus), he usually hides behind Red Menace or flees in terror.
