It's a worn-out idea that "one bad day" is all that separates a hero from a villain.
And yet, heroes in the DCU don't seem to go bad very often, and even then, usually only for a limited time before the next retcon, death, or inevitable redemption arc.
Hawk went bad for a while, but was eventually restored (although the wherefores of his redemption remain murky).
Triumph went bad and died.
Tarantula II went down a dark path and died.
With that in mind, which DCU heroes do you think a plausible candidates for slipping towards the Dark Side? Not just anti-herodom, but full-on villainy?
I'll open with a couple of obvious candidates:
Hawk
He always seems kind of on the verge of losing it.
Creeper
It's not a reach to think that Jack Ryder could fall so far down the conspiracy hole that he'd end up storming the Capitol.
Captain Atom
I mean, he *was* supposed to be Monarch.
I just realized these are all Ditko co-creations. That's, um, odd, man.
