This is a list of main and recurring fictional character and organizations from The Venture Bros., the Adult Swim/Cartoon Network comic science fiction series. Team Venture composes the central characters in the show; they live in a fortified compound in an undisclosed location somewhere in the United States. The compound doubles as the headquarters for Dr. Venture's company, Venture Industries. Originally an terrorist organization that was the primary adversary of the O.S.I. 20 years ago until its defeat in the Pyramid Wars of 1987. Several members of the O.S.I. who disillusioned with its ineffectual bureaucracy, decided take up the S.P.H.I.N.X. mantle along with their left over equipment to create an organization to deal with rogue supervillain (those who do not abide by the rules of organized villainy mandated by institutions like the Guild Of Calamitous intent). Although The Venture Bros. is a parody of Jonny Quest, some Jonny Quest characters appear in several episodes. This is due to the fact that Cartoon Network owns the rights to the Jonny Quest characters. Some of these characters, particularly Action Johnny, are drawn with variable line weights in the same style as the original comic-book-like Jonny Quest cartoons, as a visual homage. |
