I didn’t notice it as a kid, but as I’ve gotten older, something has bothered me about supervillains.  Why do none of them have wives?  Where are their girlfriends?  Their families?  It doesn’t make any sense.   Sure, they’re bent on world conquest.  They’re busy creating incredible new technologies to destroy truth and justice.  I get that.  But the heroes all find time for relationships!  Superman has Lois Lane.  Who does Lex Luthor have?  Even Batman had a sidekick!  Dr. Doom, the Joker, the Green Goblin… they can’t get a date?  These are some of the wealthiest, most powerful, take-no-guff guys on the planet.  No women are into it? 

If I know anything about the Internet, I know that the bad guys that populate City of Villains ain’t like that.  It doesn’t matter where you are online, there’s somebody there looking for a date.  At least a casual encounter!  People have gotten married who have met using these massive multiplayer games!  That’s how it should be—villains fall in love, too.  Adolf Hitler, Donald Trump, Tiger Woods:  All of history’s greatest villains have had paramours.  Why should supervillians be so different?
