Good Guys Gone Badd

Good Guys that you would love see play the badd guy/villian and why....

Howard the Duck with the Infinity Gauntlet.

Batman, of course...if he just snapped and turned on everyone.

Cyclops....oh wait.

Hard to say, really. Good question though.

Being More serious:

There was a comic book that Darkhorse had made that was really good. It was a sort of "what if superman had gone berserk." It was called Will to Power.

Doctor Strange (back to classic power levels, of course)

Reed Richards.

Sue already went rogue one time. I'd see him just snap, and go crazy. To stop him, Doom would have to team up with the good guys.

I was thinking today that I'd love to see an alternate Avengers where Thor was a villain and Loki was one of the starting avengers, assembled to shut down the murderous god of thunder.

Has this been done? The whole evil Prof X/good Magneto bit has happened a few times, I'd love to see that reverse dynamic with Thor and Loki.

I can't say I've ever seen a bad Thor good Loki story. Not that it hasn't happened. It may very well have, as I read very little Thor outside of Avengers.

If this has happened I'd very much like to know when, I'd be very interested in checking that out.

Closest thing to that was when they switched bodies and Loki went nutso as Thor.

What If's are useless to me for this though, because they just flip a character's disposition and beliefs. I'm far more interested in this actually happening to an existing character, to see their rationale behind it and the changes they go through.

Like Wonder Man recently, though we didn't get to see the transformation, just the before & after.

Captain America turns bad while retaining his influence

I'd like to see current Tony Stark go bad. Imagine the possibilities.

Tony I always thought would be cool,

Thor would be another good one.

Captain Marvel I wouldn't mind seeing that one.

I can agree with Batman/Reed Richards

The Question maybe

Cap and Tony go bad together duster

Hasn't this happened at some point or another to just about any hero you can come up with?

Captain marvel or wonder woman.

Cyclops is still the bad guy. 🙁

Surfer...Herald Madness...still waiting for it...

(...though Exiles Surfer was pretty good).

Black Bolt gone bad would be pretty great. Silent War was close to the mark, but a full blown war between Attilan and, say, the Avengers would be pretty cool stuff.

Aquaman would be sweet too. Any of the major kings declaring war is where my head's at, I guess.
