John Venn

Venn computing one of his famed demon-hunting diagrams.

John Venn (? - ?) is a famed Set theorist and crime-fighter.

Venn is the inventor of Venn diagrams, now widely used for detecting and repelling demons.

Venn diagrams also show all possible logical relations between a finite collection of different sets; see Venn diagram (nonfiction).

Venn often teams up with The Sigil to find crime by inventing new Set theory paradigms.
