What is the name of the villain who robs a bank at the beginning of the film? The bank robber is Bomb Voyage.
Bomb Voyage is a French, mime-themed supervillain who uses explosives. He appears near the start of The Incredibles while robbing a bank, drawing the attention of Mr. Incredible. The name is a pun on “bon voyage,” the French phrase meaning “have a nice trip,” with “bomb” matching his preferred weapon.
The encounter also introduces Buddy Pine, Mr. Incredible’s self-appointed fan and would-be sidekick. Buddy interrupts the confrontation, and Bomb Voyage attaches an explosive to his cape. Mr. Incredible removes the bomb, but the resulting blast destroys part of an elevated railway and forces him to stop an oncoming train.
Bomb Voyage is voiced by Dominique Louis and is one of several supervillains seen before superheroes are driven into hiding. He is sometimes confused with Syndrome because Syndrome becomes the film’s main antagonist, but Syndrome does not rob the opening bank. The Omnidroid is also a later creation of Syndrome, not a person or the initial bank robber.
