The Captain Planet super villains are actually pretty accurate. Looten Plunder still looks like the average Fortune 500 CEO (minus the 80s fashion sense), and Hoggish Greedly is basically just the President.


On the other hand, there’s not much normal humans could do against Zoom. They need superheroes to beat him.
Not so for porky. He’s just a guy.
So is Lex Luthor. Even Lex has his moments where you’re like “yeah, that makes sense.”
Lex is also a “12th level intellect” i.e. one of the smartest people in the universe.
Porky is a dumbass that thinks he can use a chatbot to replace his workforce.
You could probably do a similar one for heroes, where the former is a sole actor fixing the world all by their lonesome, whereas the reality is its lots of people working together to make the world a better place.
