	Overmind (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Overmind is a villain in the Marvel Comics universe.
		The Overmind is an alien belonging to the Eternals of Eyung, and was born several millenia ago.
		Waking up from his coma Overmind apparently believed himself to be a true villain and joined the Mad Thinker's quest in defeating the Fantastic Four once and for all, and became part of the organization the Mad Thinker had forged out of the FF's greatest foes.

	Limera Conflict Chapter 14 History of the Insectoids-Part 3-Arrival at the Crater by Thomas Pelletier
		The Overmind knew that from experience that a journey was as important as the destination.
		Yet the Overmind was much stronger at the last leg of its journey then when it had begun this arduous quest.
		When it had begun, the Overmind numbered in the hundreds and was constantly in fear of being destroyed.

		And just as the Overmind was a warrior created from the sum of a billion Eternals, so the Stranger was the sum of all those from Gigantus.
		With but a gesture the Overmind is reduced to ruling the dead and lifeless universe within a spec of dust.
		Johnny is equally distressed, complaining that the Stranger could have taken care of the Overmind without the FF ever putting their lives on the line.

	Revolving Door of Death 13 - The Peculiar Resurrection of Nighthawk (Feb 2001)
		Sometimes a character can arrive on the comics scene as little more than a caricature of what the competition sells across the street and nonetheless accumulate so much storytelling baggage that occasional infusions of the original source material have to prop up the original resemblance.
		Then again, in a comics culture that increasingly views death as a trivial annoyance no longer worthy of a great deal of attention, the lack of importance of death dictates how much energy talent should dedicate to explanations for its revocation.
		In the fantastical worlds of comics, clones and shapeshifters can impersonate the prospective cadaver and die in his place; and time travel and multidimensional excuses can help him escape his fate altogether.

		Superman, in the grip of Overmind, struggles to overcome the solar inhibitor ray and defeat his captor.
		Overmind realizes this, even as he is being ripped apart.

	Public Square 10 - The Libertarian Message of Squadron Supreme (Mar 2001)
		This, as well, my have heightened his ability to perceive wrongdoing; if, after having played the role of ventriloquist dummy to a prospective conqueror of the world, he acquired an unwanted self-awareness, in the process he also achieved a greater sensitivity to megalomania.
		It generally matters little how fondly the principal actors feel about the real and imaginary merits of their lofty programs; few victims of "ethnic cleansing," for instance, could ultimately comfort themselves in the notion that their own deaths resulted in a more homogeneous nation or a "cleaner" gene pool.
		Plus violence serves as the fundamental unit of commerce in superhero comics, so we should expect just about any story - regardless of focus - either to feature or to culminate in a big bust-up of whatever variety, from single duels to four-color mass engagements.

	Thunderbolts #108 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		Though Grandmaster has the upper hand, Zemo, using Overmind as an intermediate, politely asks the superhuman population to “lend” him their powers, so he can triumph.
		It’s quite refreshing at this point to see that, despite past grievances, Captain America, Iron Man and all the rest can put aside their pride and lend a hand when the future of the planet is on the line.
		I’d never heard of him until he turned up in the “Purple Reign” arc, where even the text acknowledged that he was just a conveniently available plot device.

	FanboyPlanet - Comics 02-25-02
		Winick dedicates this issue to the comics writers he admired, and with it he begins staking his claim to being influential on those to follow.
		All of it is the result of the B13 technology, and aside from the concern that the buildings are alive, it seems the most pressing issue is who will ultimately control this tech.

	Barbelith Underground > Comic Books > Pinoy Komiks
		There used to be a time when comics (or "komiks" as it is more widely used here) were the most popular form of entertainment media in the Philippines, dominating newspapers, magazines and even generating much of the content in our movies.
		Fortunately, there's also a small group of very passionate people here in the Philippines who love comics so much that they persist at making them, publishing them out of their own pockets, to almost no profit, if any at all.
		We're influenced by the more commercial comics from those places, but the sensibilies here are different, filtered through the Filipino lens.

		The Overmind, however, was plotting to destroy its creators and spread across the galaxy.

	Nuklear Power - Home of 8-bit Theatre
		This is more for the underdog, the lesser known, lesser read comics that might deserve a chance to shine if given a good shot.
		I have little to no doubt that comics themselves in comic book form will be around forever, and even newspaper strips will hang on for a good long time.
		But it is my personal belief that the medium is switching towards electronic methods of provision and delivery, and as a result of this hopefully a great many quality comics will find their way to the web.

	Movie Poop Shoot - COMICS 101
		This was a book that was about something, that wasn’t afraid to talk about issues of morality and personal ethics for fear of being considered “preachy.” It’s probably Gruenwald’s best single work, and according to his widow, it’s the work he was most proud of.
		Granted, the militant fl characters are a little on the stereotypical side, but the fact that these kinds of racial issues were being addressed in a comic at all was very surprising.
		Just as the warfare between the factions was coming to a head, tragedy struck, in the form of “The Pitt,” a “New Universe” event that crossed over into all of the books, in which the city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was vaporized by a mysterious blast.

	Unca Cheeks Silver Age Comics Site: Doctor Doom 3
		As the issue opens, team leader Reed Richards has fallen under the mental domination of the aforementioned Overmind: an alien would-be world conqueror with the mental powers of "a billion billion brains" at his ruthless disposal.
		Von Doom's potent combination of mystic might and technological wizardry manages to piledrive the Overmind to his massive, alien knees....
		It requires the last-ditch intervention of no less omnipotent an individual than long-time Marvel Comics cosmic buttinsky the Stranger to drop-kick the o'erweening Overmind elsewhere, ultimately; and it is left to a battered and bone-weary Ben Grimm, at battle's end, to ask (of no one in particular): "I don't wanna sound like a sorehead...

		When all your groups are ready to rumble (this will take a long time), you can defeat the Overmind using a simultaneous Terran-Protoss double-pronged attack.
		It's all too easy to group Tassadar or Raynor with bunches of units being sent to their deaths near the Overmind, and if they die, you lose.
		If you don't want to endure the final battle as all units converge on the Overmind, move against the Overmind's position slowly by inching Siege Tanks toward the objective.

	If You Could See 1 Supervillain..... - The Planet
		Darkseid or Doomsday would be fun but the cgi would have to be very impressive, plus I don't really think they would want to introduce any further worlds/aliens as it would kinda take away from the 'realness' the films are aiming for.
		I love JLU, I love Smallville, I love the comics and i can't wait for Superman Returns, its a great time to be a Superman fan.
		Obviously Toyman is the greatest villian of all times, able to challenge Superman mentally as well as physically....

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: The Squadron Supreme
		By the time the Squadron had its own comic (a 12-issue limited series running 1985-86), they were overwhelmed with the task of rebuilding after massive, world-wide destruction resulting from a run-in with a villain called The Overmind.
		They took it into their heads that things would be a lot nicer if they just took over and ran the world "right" — only until they could make everything perfect, of course, as good dictators always promise.
		This may seem a tiny bit hubristic, but considering they themselves had caused much of the damage while under The Overmind's mental domination, and it wasn't the first time they'd been under the mental domination of a super villain, it was actually extremely hubristic.

	Prism Comics » Features » "Inner Circle"
		The blogosphere has a new talking point as the news that Chuck Dixon is writing a comic starring Midnighter, the gay character from The Authority hits.
		Megan Gedris, a 20-year-old artist, will be awarded the $1,000 Prism Comics Queer Press Grant to publish YU+ME, her lesbian-themed manga series about the adventures of Fiona, a misfit Catholic schoolgirl.
		In the mid-1980s, American super-hero comics had what might be described as the opposite of a chip on their shoulder, apologetically reminding the outside world via "Mature Reader" titles like DC's Swamp Thing that, y'know, comics aren't just for mentally retarded 40-year-olds who live in their parents' basement.
