Loved it all. Billy and Pete must be pretty bored to be so into Hank's schemes. One thing that I still don't 'get': I'm a huge Warhammer fan...I totally don't get the reference to the super-villain tonight...and it's driving me mad.

More of a Luthor/Warhol thing than a reference to the actual game. Also, I thing Billy and Pete are pretty into helping with Hank's schemes- that sort of stuff is right up their alley.

I'll admit to them being bored though- Doc hiring them to do super-science was more of a bust than usual.

Wes Warhammer is a direct reference to avant-garde celebrity Andy Warhol.

Andy Warhol went bald later in life and wore wigs, so Wes being bald was, at the least, an indirect reference to that as well.

And Lex Luthor was bald... that was the other obvious character reference in Wes. It all sinks up beautifully.

Yes, I obviously got the Warhol references everywhere around Wes Warhammer. I just don't 'get' the reference to the 'Warhammer' name. I'm thinking there isn't any (unless you count Warhammer getting blown up, because Games-Workshop blew up the whole Warhammer planet last year).

It seems like it's really just a way to make Warhol villainous.

Or if you want to get kooky with it:

Lex LuTHOR. Thor. Thor's hammer. Wes Warhammer.

Boom. Yummy.

I wish I could give this a second check just for the use of Boom. Yummy.

I find it hard to believe that no one has mentioned the Robot Chicken Season 11 finale with the Venture Bros Season 8 scene at the very end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKH-J3f2RkM
