honestly, I don't think Maxwell Lord being actually used as the villain he always was is a bad thing. Man was always awful and power-grubbing. I dont think he'd be able to stab the Justice League in the back and chest without a bunch of wibbling about the morality of betraying his friends, tho. Like, he'd still do it, but the handwringing about his awfulness is a notable part of the character.

Black King! Maxwell Lord just comes off as a bit too cool and collected and certain about what he's doing

#nix meows #nix reads comics #maxwell lord #countdown to infinite crisis #the omac project #if you which to argue that Max Lord wasn't evil from jump #consider the fact that i'm not overlooking #how he was introduced in the jli stuff #by manipulating a mental patient into doing terrorism and committing suicide to further Max's goals #and also the bits where he violated people's ability to consent to shit by brainwashing them #you could litterally just block me rather than waisting yer time trying to change my mind
