>> Kinda makes you wonder who's good and who's evil here...
Which of course is the point.<<
Yep.
I have observed in conventional canons, and further in Polychrome Heroics, that people with happy backgrounds rarely become supervillains and that supervillains usually have a crappy background with few options. Punching people in the face neither makes them want to join your side nor furnishes them with the tools to improve their life. Making friends, on the other hand, has a pretty high rate of coaxing people away from the black. Among the reasons why people age out of crime are forming human connections like marriage and parenting. Form more connections, encourage that shift.
>> Oh. Dr. G is committing radical inclusivity. <<
:D Hence "quiet revolutions," that month's theme.
>> I seem to remember a certain other gentleman of note who tended to hang out with thieves and women of a certain reputation.
Well, _that_ connects some dots...<<
While Dr. G is not particularly religious, I think he would get along very well with Buddy Christ. :D
Yes ...
