Don't know the theme though.

I don’t think you’d really want to play him in an Insane army. There might be synergy that works with him, but the point was mostly that my Shade design gets a boost when fighting Insane figures. I wouldn’t even really describe the Scream himself as particularly Insane cause he’s barely even a character, but I don’t think it’s wrong to have him branded that way in-game.
Theme-wise, I’m already stretching things a bit. In the comic he can “infect” very large areas (all of NYC for example) but I limited it to 4 spaces. So I don’t think limiting it to when the figure gets a wound would be too bad. It would neuter the blank option a bit, but that might be a good thing.
One thing I realized just now is that the enemy can pretty effectively neutralize him by just not attacking him so he never goes on the card. Maybe I’ll remove that requirement on placing the die.
