Dr. Mabuse / by Jacques, Norbert,1880-1954,author.; Clare, Lilian A.(Lilian Ada),1865-Doktor Mabuse.English.;
"One of the bery first literary supervillains. Dr. Mabuse made his debut in Norbert Jacques' 1921 German novel. Too intriguing a character to be constrained to the book stalls, he was soon launched upon the world in Fritz Lang's silent film masterpiece: Dr. Mabuse, Gambler. It is through Lang's four-hour criminal epic that most of the English speaking world first came to know the sinister arch-villain. Dr. Mabuse is a greedy anarchist who assumes many guises and controls a legion of henchmen (willing and unwilling) through telepathic hypnosis. Spawning five novels and thirteen movies. Dr. Mabuse's insidious influences on art and culture can still be seen today. Think bond supervillains. Think evil comic book masterminds. Think Heath Ledger as The Joker: unhinged, brilliant, wicked. Virtually unobtainable in the English translation until now, the novel that started it all is available again for a limited run." --
