I owe Newsarama a thanks for bringing this little gem to my attention… Sending me on a video hunt.

Former Slayer-in-training and Dr. Horrible first love/ kill Felicia Day seems to have an attraction to internet-based entertainment. Before her role as Penny, the love interest of Dr. Horrible AND Captain Hammer, she played the RPG-addicted Codex in The Guild. Click the read the rest of this entry link after the first 3 episodes if you want to watch the 4-10. Its completely worth watching if you are addicted to a Massive Multiplayer Online game or love someone who does.

Well you can see why the Evil League of Evil accepted an adorable wimp like Dr. Horrible with the likes of these fiendish arch-villains in the talent pool. So break out your darkest duds, hone your super powers and polish your evil magic helmet for your own application… They’ve announced the best applications will end up on a DVD release of Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog.

The Allergen, Captain Shrovewreaker, Short Change, The Parasite (someone should tell him to change his name, it’s taken. He could go by Remora?), and Custodius Rex. C’mon people I think we can do better than these.

The Dr. Horrible panel convened Friday at San Diego Comic Con. Leading the panel was “Dr. Horrible” creator Joss Whedon. Joss was joined onstage by cast members Neil Patrick Harris (Dr. Horrible), Felicia Day (Penny), Nathan Fillion (Captain Hammer) and Simon Helberg (Moist) as well as his co-writers Maurissa Tancharoen, Jed Whedon and Zack Whedon.

There were a number of interesting factoids and DVD special features ideas tossed around, but the most interesting reveal was that Joss and company are accepting 3-minute video submissions for the Evil League of Evil and the top 10 entries will be featured on the DVD (just 10 - like they don’t have room?).

So dig your evilest outfit out of that old closet at the back of your secret lair and make a video showing the Evil League of Evil - Professor Normal, Fake Thomas Jefferson, Tie-Die, Dead Bowie, Fury Leika, Snake Bite, and of course, Bad Horse - the Thoroughbred of Sin just how EVIL you really are!

Also note I updated the embedded videos for Act’s I, II and III in the article about the launch of Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along-Blog. So watch it again and sing along! It really is even catchier on the second and third viewings.

What do you get when you cross America’s favorite gay television doctor and the mind of Joss Whedon, creator of the Buffyverse? A musical blog by an earnest albeit inept singing supervillain wanna be who goes by Dr. Horrible.

And it is far from horrible. In fact I think its pretty damned great. But then, I’m a bit warped. “Once More With Feeling” was one of my all time favorite episodes of Buffy TVS and I even have a few select songs in a few playlists. You can purchase the episodes on iTunes if that is your thing, or just watch them below - enlargeable to fullscreen. Visit the Official Site.

ACT I

ACT II

Act III

I see a cult classic in the making. I hope they do more than these 3 episodes. Or even add a few more songs and make it a real stage show. I’d go see it. I want to see a Joss Whedon musical on Broadway.

and of course here is a link to the inevitable Dr. Horrible fansite
