If I remember correctly, this Club was a Dutch invention
by storywriter Patty Klein.
Its original name is 'de Booswichtenclub', or, when
spelled incorrectly by those badguys: 'de Booswigte Klup'.
This club had never(?) more than five members, being the
Fox, the Bear, the Wolf, a Weasel and a Buzzard.
You didn't have the Buzzard, whose Dutch name is Barend
Buizerd. The Weasel character's name is Vittorio Wezel.
His skin is grey, he has a broad white hat and little
black moustache and wears an 'italian' costume jacket, his
whole appearance being something between a stylish cowboy
(the white hat) and a stylish 'sicilian' gangster. I don't
know if this Weasel is the same as the Willy Weasel you
already had, hence my description.
You shouldn't be too worried if the total doesn't count up
to twelve: those villains probably can't either. :)
