He is running around trying to determine whether or not his arch-nemesis will actually pay enough attention to him to actually try and thwart all of his evil plans. His goal in life: to rule the world, obviously. Bleddyn Bird (AKA the mysterious Erebus) is a super-hero, also struggling. While Doctor Nihilistical is running around, Bleddyn is trying to get through graduate school and is barely able to function with the amount of sleep he is getting each night. Both are trying to figure out what they need to do in order to survive, and it's getting to the point where they can't get out of each others' heads long enough to realize what is actually important in life.
