Previous thread. Considering the trouble we had finding something the first time around, I'm voting Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

OP's complaint hinges on one sentence in the trope description "who try to use those powers for good". The laconic is not clear about it. If this "using for good" is a necessity for the trope to work, current image is not depicting it and is thus misleading. If the trope is merely about nice people blessed with bad powers, current image would work perfectly.
I'm actually searching for a clip with Rogue since she's the one that is on my mind lately that fits here. Alternatively, this◊ Ghost Rider strip.
The trope makes a big deal about it though, and a quick scan on examples show that the character uses the bad powers. Hell it even has Rei down there.

How does that Ghost Rider suggestion show that he's using his powers for good?
Well, he technically is. The Penance Stare causes the target to physically feel all the pain he/she has inflicted on others, all at once. Think what happens to the villain in The Crow but on a soul-burning level.
Clock is set.

Going to go with Keep Until Better Image Suggested
Yeah, I've not seen anything better than the current either.
Check out my fanfiction!Clock's past due; locking for inactivity/lack of consensus.
So the main point of the trope is that the person, despite having bad powers, will use it for good. The image doesn't display that. It tells us the guy is pretty nice and could remove flesh, but he doesn't illustrate the fact that he uses the powers for good. Even the trope name makes a big point about "But what about the good people who got blessed with evil powers...who try to use those powers for good?" Even the discussion linked in the Edit workspace missed that point.
