Biography
Bookworm alias A.S. Scarlet 1887 {A spoof of A Study in Scarlet). Is a bibliophile with a Genius for crime. His trademark custume is a suit made out of old leather books covers, leather gloves; thick reading glasses; and a leather fedora with a flexable reading lamp attached to it. His female accomplice Lydia Limpet [is a spoof of bookworms]; his accomplices wear glasses and have names connected with books/printing (Pressman,Typesetter, and Printers Devil) Three times he has tried to do away with the dynamic duo and failed. He can speed read through a thick book in seconds; despite being able to plan crimes down to the smallest detail, at heart he is a frustraded novelist who cannot write because he lacks orginality.
