Why Are Villains Cooler?

[whatbombsatmidnite]

As far back as I can remember, I have always been more inclined to seek out action figures and memoribilia of super villains more than heroes. I find them cooler - their uncompromising views of the world, their power, their names, their weapons. The dynamics of character are so much more vivid.

Starscream
Cobra Commander
Skeletor
Destro
Megatron
Hordak
Shredder
Joker
Venom
Bludgeon
Soundwave
Serpentor
Apocalypse
Doomsday
Bane
Gargamel

I mean, come on.


Why do you all think they're cooler, or, if you wanna play devil's advocate, why aren't they as cool as, say, He-Man?
