An excerpt from https://michaelianblack.substack.com/p/bonfire-of-the-villainies which reads: "One of the interesting thing about heroes is that they cannot exist without villains. In fact, what defines heroes is what opposes them. We all know the familiar man vs. man, man vs. nature, man vs. himself trope. In each, the hero must confront some opposing force. In each, the hero must confront his own weaknesses in order to summon his greatest strengths. In each, the villain must be defeated so that the world may be righted."
