Origin[]

Pinhead and Bird-Brain are a fictional pair of greedy gangsters appearing in the issue of "Phony Funnies" owned by Audrey. Pinhead is a tall and thin pinstripe crook with a sharp, strait nose and equally pointed greased black hair while Bird-Brain is short and stubby, and is aptly named for the bird that resides in his head.

Their attempt at robbing Fort Knox was foiled by a big-chinned police detective. The two would later manifest in Audrey's dream during detention, attempting to steal the Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs in a getaway car and causing property damage.
