Bloggers Wanted: Villains that did nothing wrong

✌️ Torchman is not a crook ✌️ Villains in all media, not just video games, can end up being a dime a dozen. Far too often, a villain’s motives boil down to “I am a bad, and so I do bad things.

Hopefully we’ll get to a point where every style of graphics is accepted as “current” and valid....
