"God, I hate you."

Away
Oh my love, turn away from me
So when I'm gone you won't ever see, what I became
I
Won't let you give yourself to me
Won't let you give yourself for me
Either one is the same
—"The Darkness" by The Last Stand

Who knew a parody show about supervillains could be so sad?

Contains unmarked spoilers. Therefore, read with caution!


  • Episode 6: It's a minor one, but still; all the supervillains that Havoc used to associate with are slowly being forgotten about now, whether they be dead, in prison, or having died in prison.
  • Episode 15:
    • Havoc outright subverting the Once per Episode diary entry.
      Havoc: You know what? I don't think I wanna remember today.
    • Havoc is nearly Driven to Suicide when Kim divorces him. His failed attempt is pictured above, and "The Darkness" plays throughout this scene all the way to the end of the credits.
      Havoc: Ah, come on. Come on. Come on, you fucking pussy! Fucking do it! Come on! What do you gotta live for now, huh? You fucking hit rock bottom, you piece of shit! Now, fucking kill yourself! Come on! Do it! Stop fucking dreaming about it, and fucking be a man! God, ugh! [beat] God, I hate you.
  • Episode 18: Dr. Havoc, having been abandoned by his entire family, alone in his lair and getting drunk on the night of his and Kim's anniversary.
  • Episode 25: Havoc having a successful date with Michelle... which goes downhill real fast when he accidentally kills her.
  • Episode 30:
    • Havoc's speech of the truth about villains.
      Dr. Havoc: You don't actually believe you're gonna take over the world, right? It's impossible.
      Von Duct: What are you talking about? You spent your entire life trying to take over the world.
      Dr. Havoc: Yeah. But I know I'm not going to. The game is rigged, Von Duct. Villains don't win. It's impossible. Somebody will always stop us. And deep down, I've always known that. Every morning, I get up knowing I'm gonna lose. But I keep trying, and you know why? Because I fucking hate myself. Just like you hate yourself. The reason why we're villains, is because we're fucking losers. And the world knows it. And we... hate them for that. Because deep down, we know they're right. Villains are just people who think they're important and can't stand that the world doesn't see it. All this? This is about two guys who can't admit what they've always known... That we are fucking. Losers. And we always will be.
    • Brock crying over his clone "son"'s death.

Everyone is the same
You're free
I would never want this for you
You're free
Dry your tears and go
Don't turn, and look where the darkness takes me
I'm gonna bleed to death, in the streets tonight
But you won't know
