History YMMV / ExHeroes

* CompleteMonster: [[CompellingVoice Agent John Smith]] is a metahuman who uses his [[MoreThanMindControl mind control methods]] to get anything he wants in life, including [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil making many women sleep with him against their will]]. One young woman dies of a brain aneurysm due to the stress of this, but Smith views the event with amusement rather than remorse. Smith gets a government job and uses his powers to initiate a SuperSoldier program so he can control the soldiers into doing his bidding. Smith views the billions of deaths in the ZombieApocalypse as nothing more than an obstacle to his plan, keeps his soldiers from rescuing any civilians, and arranges for several of them to be killed to cement his control. Smith tries to put his soldiers against the protagonists, abandons everyone when danger reaches their base, and hijacks the mind of a resident of the Mount to upload a copy of his mind into her body and take over the Mount while trying to trap the heroes in a horrific, permanent nightmare.

** The scavengers and wall guards (Billie, Jarvis, Lady Bee, Makana, etc.) do a good job of acting as BadassNormal support personnel who fight alongside the heroes, but a common complaint, especially for the first two books, is that they're always just there and get minimal backstory and CharacterDevelopment despite their interesting potential.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: Jessica Alba's zombie corpse was ''not'' sexually molested by Cairax. Fan reaction to that initial claim was well into the realm of displeasure so retconning it was well-received.
