Crisis of Infinite Episodes - The Case Of The Dreadful Dolls


"Don't toy with the Super Friends." Despite the kookiness, I actually enjoyed this episode featuring the Dollmaker and his clay voodoo dolls used to control the Super Friends. A bit of trivia, Dollmaker is the name of a couple of DC villains, the earliest apparently being a fairly obscure adversary of Plastic Man. In this episode, the Dollmaker made Big Shott's Toy World his home base implying (despite the spelling discrepancy) some relation to the Toyman, Winslow Schott. In fact, one Dollmaker in the comics was Anton Schott, son of the Toyman, though he did not appear in comics until more than 20 years after this episode aired.
