** Let us count the ways: He killed a ''humongous'' chunk of the super-heroes on Earth, is a WellIntentionedExtremist VillainWithGoodPublicity (''so much'' of an Extremist that two of his harshest critics are ''his own abandoned wife and child''), his Robot bodies outnumber the heroes by a number so absurd that CurbStompBattle doesn't begins to describe it, there is ''absolutely'' no place to hide or run from him ''anywhere'' on Earth, and his actions to make Earth a Utopia have so far gone so well that the few surviving heroes that have tried to play resistance so far have abandoned the fight and became his minions (it's not even a "try to make change from the inside" kind of FaceHeelTurn-they plainly said "he's in the right" and ''quit''), leaving only the hard-core fanatics (so hard-core that they are becoming TheScrappy because they spend their every on-screen moment going on about how much they hate Robot) to fight (and, again, there's no place they can hide from his surveillance-he's only waiting for them to figure out themselves that he's in the right and then come to him, or do the first move so he can justify whatever atrocity he will do to stop them).

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: Starting out as a light-hearted superhero comic, it quickly takes a nosedive into DarkerAndEdgier territory, as the bad guys come out of the woodwork to heap piles of shit on Mark, killing thousands of people before he's able to put them down, assuming they don't get personal and attack Eve or his mother. That SHIELD expy he works for? Employs psychotic killers to make cyborg zombies [[AndIMustScream that are fully aware and horrified at their own existence]] and more than once tries to kill Mark for not marching to the beat of their drum.

* CriticalDissonance: U.S. Reviews, while mixed, weren't very kind to the album, and (by Jackson's standards) it virtually bombed in its home territory, selling only two million copies. International sales and reviews, however, were much better.
