Btw I like the joke. Also, black Adam is a villain. One can be someone’s hero, but another person’s villain. Literally it’s just protagonist, antagonist. The only reason their called “evil HEROs” is so they could fit in the HERO archetype and be able to use their support cards
They couldn't call 'em VILLAINS because they wouldn't be part of the HERO archetype. So they had to put the word HERO in their archetype but they wanted to point out that they're evil. That's why they have the very original name "Evil HERO"es.
