I’m not sure I actually consider Hellraiser a slasher, personally, tbh. But I felt like it belonged on my list anyway, so here they are! Average goth friend group lol
A group of no good, trouble-making hoodlums who live in a shack at the Townsville City dump, the Gangreen Gang are most renown for being the first villains to battle The Powerpuff Girls shortly after the threesome decided to become superheroes. These green-skinned delinquents are more of a nuisance than significant threat, but they sure know how to make trouble.
The gang is composed of Ace, Snake, Big Billy, Lil’ Arturo and Grubber. It remains unknown how the teens got their green skin and mutated features although it has been intimated that they may have been exposed to some sort of radioactive material at the city dump.
Ace, the group’s leader, briefly left the gang to play bass on tour with the English experimental rock band, The Gorilliaz. Ace performed on the band’s sixth album The Now Now, replacing bassist Murdoc Niccals while he was serving a prison sentence. Following Mudoc’s release, Ace returned to Townsville and joined back up with the Gangreen Gang.
Actors Jeff Bennett, Tom Kenny and Carlos Alazraqui provide the voices for the Gangreen Gang. The green-skinned goons first appeared in the fourth episode of the first season of The Powerpuff Girls, airing on December 9th, 1998.
The flamboyant super villain Megamind and his arch-nemesis, the superhero Metro Man, were both aliens who were sent to Earth as infants before their planets were sucked into a black hole. Although both landed in Metro City at the same time, Metro Man was raised in a mansion, while Megamind was raised in a prison. Growing up, he came to the conclusion that his purpose is to be a super villain. And this quickly resulted in a longstanding rivalry between Megamind and the heroic Metro Man.
As an adult, Megamind, frequently and unsuccessfully battled Metro Man for control of the city. Megamind possesses a peerless intellect and created all manner of inventions that are equally ingenious as they are insidious. He is aided in this by his fish-like companion, Minion.
While Megamind constantly schemed to destroy Metroman and rule Metro City with an iron fist, he actually enjoyed the rivalry and did not truly wish to succeed. Indeed when he did apparently destroy Metro Man and succeeded in conquering the city, he is left bereft and pining for the good old days of the former status quo.
This led Megamind to make the foolish decision to create a new super heroic rival. He bestowed the powers of Metro Man into a goonish creep named Hal. Predictably, the plan went terribly awry as Hal became Titan, a rotten and depraved villain.
Megamind was forced to team up with intrepid reporter, Roxanne Ritchi, and the two were ultimately able to defeat Titan. Herein Megamind found that being a hero is just as rewarding as being a villain and he went on to become the beloved protector of Metro City.
Actor Will Ferrell provides the voice for Megamind with the villain-turned hero first appearing in the 2010 animated feature, Megamind.
