   Okay, all Superheros are, at least, marginally problematic, but what Superhero do you think is the most problematic, and why?

     @SimonCHulse @RickiTarr @GayDeceiver

     Because the megacorp owner never created anything, he just took the credit for the accomplishments of the previous owners (before he bought them out) or his current employees.

     Suddenly, there's this superhero, getting credit for saving people! That credit belongs to Mr Megacorp, because without him, this superhero wouldn't exist!

     What about his poor, undernourished ego? Won't somebody think of the poor billionaires?!

     @RickiTarr @GayDeceiver either that or the villain uses the same technology from the megacorp that gave the superhero their power in the first place. Why is it always megacorps led by Elon Musk/Jeff Bezos types that create heroes? And why is the Musk/Bezos type always jealous and becomes the bad guy? That’s a trope at this point.

     E.g.:
     Ant Man vs Darren Cross
     Iron Man vs Obadiah Stane
     Spider-Man vs Green Goblin AND Doc Ock

     AnthonyJK-Admin repeated this.

     @RickiTarr Iron Man. He could benefit from having some counseling. He was pretty much one bad decision away from becoming an archenemy.

     @RickiTarr I have a problem with all superheroes that are not Batman. Reason? They are not Batman.

     I like Batman.
