DC Entertainment is getting ready to unleash an all-out super-villain assault, just in time for Halloween. One of many villainous stops along their road to world domination brings them to the pages of the DC Nation comic. GeekDad has an exclusive look at a Know Your Super-Villains mini-poster and accompanying whos who guide that will be featured in DC Nation books in October. Can you name more than your kids?

(Geek Cred Warning: You can scroll down for the villain names, should your geek-o-meter fail you.)

Kids can continue to test their super-villain smarts by visiting DCNation.com to take a mastermind quiz and participate in a poll to select the vilest villain. Plus, you dont need access to the Bat Computer to get the entire lowdown on this superstitious and cowardly lot; all you need is the DC Nation app to gain exclusive access to a full set of super-villains secret files in a special Halloween collection.

Still havent had your fill of maniacal clowns, feline femme fatales, and narcissistic businessmen? Why not follow your favorite baddies to their other destinations such as the New York Comic Con, a lucky fan sweepstakes, and a fan-favorite DVD release?

DCComics.com will host a month-long super-villain website takeover that includes art by Ryan Sook, and elaborate super-villain character pages. In addition, fans can enter the Super-Villains Big Score Sweepstakes on the site, where one grand prizewinner will win super-villain themed prizes including special collectibles and original artwork.

DC Entertainment will also give fans the chance to be one of the super-villains at New York Comic Con with a special green screen photo-op at the DC Entertainment booth. Fans attending the con, from October 11-14, can strike their most evil pose alongside Bane, The Joker, Lex Luthor and more in an interactive photo booth. As a souvenir, youll get to take home an awesome super-villain cover from the photo shoot.

Next month will also see the release of the first annual super-villains DVD collection, which arrives in stores on October 16. A 2-disc collection, DC Comics Super-Villains: The Jokers Last Laugh collects 13 action-packed episodes, featuring some of the best moments from the Clown Prince of Crimes career.

It certainly looks like its a good time to be bad, right? Now, if youll excuse me, I have to go dig out my old DC Halloween specials and brainstorm how Im going to get to New York for my Villains United meeting.
