I don’t have a name for him yet, but I already have some lore developed for him.
Basically he was just a normal citizen in the marvel universe, he had a wife and kids, worked as a college professor and had a good life. But that was until one day, when he was walking downtown, a stranger came to him, and tried to convince him their whole reality was fake, he pointed how nothing made sense, how everyday there was a new threat to humanity, how biology and physics are a complete mess and how anyone can just gain powers that should’ve killed them out of deadly situations. And said their whole reason of existence was to only entertain the real humans, and that was why their universe was so chaotic.
At first our character dismissed all of that as complete craziness and thought that stranger should be in a psychiatric ward. But he din’t forget on what he said, and physics are a complete mess. And since he’s a physics professor he began researching. And After some months he discovered that some things really didn’t add up. Such as how wolverine foe exemple. His claws should rip his skin and destroy his hand just to come out, and that could cause infections and kill him. But that doesn’t happen, and how the hell did human evolution biologically made metal claws? Or how the hell are metal claws even useful for survival? (since evolution is supposed to remove traits unnecessary for survival and add traits useful for survival) Even though at this point he still doesn’t believe in what that crazy man said, he’s now more spectacle and aware that something isn’t right.
So, truth is I haven’t thought on how that character would find out that his whole reality is just fiction, I was thinking maybe he could study more and more, to the point he starts believing that theory, or maybe he could have an interaction with an writer or reader (or viewer), what would confirms what that stranger said, or somehow he simply could talk to some character that is already aware their whole reality is fiction, such as Deadpool or Gwenpool, and they would confirm it. Either way when he finds out his whole existence is just for show and entertainment he doesn’t take it well.
He slowly (or rapidly) becomes completely insane, and concludes that if their whole universe is fake, then nothing matters and there are 0 consequences whatsoever. And if the only reason they exist is for show and entertainment then he would give the readers (or viewers) a great show.
He starts small with killing his whole family, and rapidly starts doing things such as mass murder, terrorism, chaos-driven crimes, organized crimes and theft, violent crimes and much more. Always speaking to the readers or viewers (in which to anyone’s else’s perspective it would seem he’s just talking to the air. Always trying to convince people that their reality is just made up for jokes and giggles and fighting heroes.
So for now you probably concluded he’s kinda of a mix between the Joker and Deadpool, also, while I was writing this I thought he could be have a showman or entertainer theme, have a name, costume and personality based around showmans and entertainers and etc.
But that’s all I got for now. So what do y’all think?
