Appearances within comics

The Batman Adventures -- the first DC Comics spinoff of Batman: The Animated Series -- features a screwball trio of incompetent super-villains: the Mastermind (a caricature of Mike Carlin), The Perfessor (a caricature of Dennis O'Neil), and Mr. Nice (a caricature of Archie Goodwin), a super-strong but childishly-innocent super-villain.
