Being The Villian So No One Else Has To
Every world that has superpowers has superheroes and supervillains. At least, that's what Ryan thinks. The only problem is that there are plenty of heroes. but no villains. The last "big bad villain" was defeated and subsequently killed over 20 years ago. Ever since then, no villain's stepped up. usually, Sarah would be more than happy with that, but in the stead of villain's, all the heroes have become lazy celebrities, complacent and weak. They still save people, but damn are they incompetent at it. They never had a real challenge in 20 years, so why would they need to care?
So, Ryan, in a fit of drunken inspiration, decides to use his superpower to BE the next "Big Bad". Inspire the Heroes to actually try again. Plus, which comic nerd hasn't thought that being the bad guy would be pretty fun?
