Snake Stalker

Origin

Snake Stalker was once a member of the Stickmen, the henchman of Stickman. Eventually, he was burnt out on the hate it took to be a henchman for Stickman. He found another costumed supervillain and fell in love. He would rebrand himself as Snake Stalker and continue his criminal career in love rather than hate.

Creation

Snake Stalker debuted in Minor Threats #1 by Patton Oswalt, Jordan Blum, and Scott Hepburn. He seems to be an analogue of The Riddler.

The Bounty on Stickman

After The Stickman killed Kid Dusk, the sidekick of The Insomniac, a bounty was put on Stickman's head. Insomniac's superhero team, The Continuum, was desperate to brutalize the costume crime-fighters into going into hiding as the Insomniac upped his aggressiveness against them in the wake of his sidekick's death. Snake was one of four supervillains to be recruited by Playtime to find Stickman on their own before either Insomniac or Continuum get to them.

Snake was especially motivated as his partner had been one of the supervillains killed by Insomniac. Much of their search for Stickman was dead ends, including sneaking into the night club for the supervillain elite which was a trap from Stickman himself. With this team now on Stickman's radar, he tricks them into working for him thanks to convincing one of the members, Pigeon Pete, into betraying them.

Snake and the others are teleported into the lair of The Insomniac so they could plant bombs and destroy it. Brain believed the traitor member was a ruse so the team planned to be at each other's throats, forcing Stickman to arrive to whip them into shape. When the team tried to confront Stickman, Pigeon Pete revealed himself. Stickman tried to kill the rest of the villains, but Snake attempted to defend them. Unfortunately, Insomniac interrupted the villain fight and broke Snake's neck.
