Mark is probably the most realistic depiction of a real person given superpowers. The average person isn’t going to be some untouchable force of good like Superman, or a crazed lunatic like Homelander.

They’re gonna want to do good, but constantly find it doesn’t always work. They’re going to struggle with trying to live a normal life. They’re going to have to make some really fucked up decisions if they truly want to improve things.

I guess it’ll depend ultimately on how they’re raised. With how homeowner was raised, he was pretty much guaranteed to be a psycho.

Good people can fuck up, get jaded, or become bad still but having loving parents and a decent childhood would decrease the likelihood.

That's why people should only raise renters

I'd Like to think I would try and do good. But I don't think Homelander is what most people would be like The most realistic depiction of most people with powers is Tighten from Megamind. Still selfish and doesnt care about others, but less masterbating on roof tops. Tighten is an Incel with Super powers.

Yeah I’d like to believe in the spirit of humanity too but realistically give the average person unlimited power and the ability to do whatever tf they want and 9.5 times out of 10 they will be Homelander or will eventually be driven that lane because of the world being shit

There is a very vocal minority of Homelander-types in the world. They don’t represent the average person
