A new Canadian supervillain appears: The Burglar King!

You’re looking at the next big Canadian supervillain, who’s been dubbed the “Burglar King”, and he’s on a terror campaign in Peterborough, Ontario.

Sporting a pink cape and a gold grown, he was caught on Chris Adlam’s security videocamera stealing a Muskoka chair (that’s an “Adirondack chair” to my American readers) from his porch.

Stealing chairs from someone’s porch in the dead of night is an operation that requires finesse…

…but finesse went out the window when the Burglar realized that a kid’s scooter got caught in the chair…

…and like the best supervillains, the Burglar King knows that discretion is the better part of valor and high-tails it out of there before the noise alerts the house:

The pictures are one thing, but to truly see the Burglar King in action, you should watch the video, which includes sound, so you can hear the clattering as the Burglar King realizes that the chair is tangled up in all sorts of bric-a-brac:
