Written during the writer’s strike of 2007-2008, Dr. Horrible was produced for almost nothing (by film industry standards) and released exclusively online. It was released in three acts, and I remember waiting hitting the refresh button two weeks in a row, salivating for the next chunk. I’ve got the DVD and you should get it too. Then you MUST watch the commentary. I don’t even want to spoil it by telling you why you should watch it, just trust me on this one.

To represent Dr. Horrible, we chose to superimpose the Caduceus (as seen on his iconic lab coat) onto the Evil League of Evil’s coat of arms. We considered a design that incorporated his goggles, but ultimately decided that he would be best represented by the 2 things that he pursued above all others: Science, and membership in the Evil League of Evil.
