Isn’t that just DOOM patrol?

Wait, so what is going on over in the USA, but sexy??

I guess that would be significantly more palatable ... still murder tho.

But if I could choose my dictator I would like a big mommy dommy goth, pls!
(I would be a boot-locker & it would be illegal to kink-shame me!)

Basically the Harley Quinn show.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 1 points 5 minutes ago

Harley being Batman's therapist and keeping his identity secret ("Doctor-patient confidentiality") was one of the most wholesome things ever.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago

Woof, woof!

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

Was gonna say

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Villains or antiheroes? Because this sounds like anti-heroes but villains are rather the people letting starving people die for profits.

[–] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

Reminds me of an all evil campaign I played in once.

I recall "heroically" leading the towns militia into a wererat den on the night of the full moon, only to lock them all in together and finish off the stragglers on both sides afterwards. Turns out militiamen's scalps look awfully similar to those of reverted wererats, and we turned quite a profit.

Heros: "We did it, we finally killed the evil bad guy"

The evil bad guy's 12 best friends:

[–] upandup@sh.itjust.works 21 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

I like how they threw “sexy” in there.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

It's an integral load(:))-bearing essential element!!

[–] CannedTuna@sh.itjust.works 9 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Makes me think they’re talking about Always Sunny

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

Holy poops, that's actually a good des.
Especially the sexy part.

[–] TheGreatSnacku@lemm.ee 3 points 2 hours ago

Nothing sexier than cultivating mass.

[–] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 18 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

the episodes of the venture bros where the monarch is forced to interact with other villains are the best.

[–] benignintervention@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago

Baron underbite knocking on the monarch's door for a place to crash because he "just got divorced"

[–] deus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

This reminds me of the Phantom Troupe.

[–] itsgroundhogdayagain@lemmy.ml 14 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Villains are usually better written, more developed characters while the good guys are just good for sake of being good.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Also, villains are often coded as minorities, whereas the heroes are basically the mainstream.

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 1 points 4 minutes ago* (last edited 4 minutes ago)

I remember an animated show where the reason why the villain was evil and how they were defeated was because they were aromantic

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Isn't that because there are fewer unambiguous ways to be "good"? Even many people doing "good" could be seen by others as being evil?

  • "I'm saving the forest!" "You're killing loggers"
  • "No one will every go hungry again!" "You stole every piece of arable land and only grow the food you want to exist"
  • "I've saved everyone's soul. Everyone is going to the happy afterlife when they die!" "Which religion's afterlife are you calling the 'happy' one?"

I'm currently reading a series called Everybody Loves Large Chests. The protagonist is a dungeon mimic who gains sentience and levels up. It collects a bunch of sexy villain characters along the way. Surprisingly compelling.

It's weeb degeneracy with rape, fantasy Nazis, and a loli that shouts Ora Ora as she punches because the author took a fantastic premise and smeared shit all over it.

It got recommended to me by a Redditor.

I do not forgive their sins, or yours for spreading it.

Jessie and James and Meowth

[–] the_dopamine_fiend@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Dimension 20 basically did this with Escape From the Bloodkeep and it was, as usual, fantastic.

[–] snf@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

My first thought! Although apparently it was designed to end in PvP. One of the best seasons in my book, definitely the top sidequest season.

[–] Killer_Tree@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but for a good read from a Villain perspective try A Practical Guide to Evil

https://practicalguidetoevil.wordpress.com/summary/

[–] hobnoblin@feddit.uk 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Anybody read Worm by John McCrae / Wildbow? It's this and it's really really good https://parahumans.wordpress.com/

[–] AliasVortex@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Actually, now that you mention it, Worm is this to a tee. Worm is still probably one of my favorite reads to date; highly recommend (it's like a The Boys with less evil corporations and more X-Men)!

spoilerFor all the praise, I'm not entirely sure I liked the ending, but the rest of the book more than makes up for it...

I keep telling myself to get around to reading Ward, but so far haven't had the time to commit to it.

[–] Caffeinated_Sloth@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

I thought of Lost. They’re not all villains, but they’re all kind of shitty.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 1 points 2 hours ago

That’s basically Inspirational Skeletor.

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

How would you say they are villains? Some may classify as antiheroes, but like… they basically literally try to save people from extermination.

[–] Sibshops@lemm.ee 1 points 3 hours ago

Agatha all along.. Kinda.
