No offense, but you’re not exactly blowing anyone’s mind with the whole “the hero creates their own villains” point, considering the comics themselves have been touching on that for decades.

It also isn't even true. The comics and the tv shows have always been at pains to show that Gotham (and Metropolis) have always had supervillains in them. All Batman and Superman have done is rip off the the polite fiction where everyone pretends they don't exist in order to expose the problem. It isn't that there are more villains, it is that Batman and Superman won't let them operate unchallenged in the shadows no more. They are more visible, but making a problem visible is the first step to solving it, because it is easy to ignore problems if you can't see them.

You can find any amount of real world problems that perpetuate for decades unchallenged in the shadows, then someone rips off the fiction, people get angry at the new visibility causing them to think about things they've been able to avoid thinking about, it all seems new and scary because of the increased visibility, and gradually people come together to solve the problem and make things better. That is what Batman and Superman et al are at, exposing the problems and polite fictions used to conceal them, and people getting angry at the visibility.

BTW, you all really should read Superman Smashes the Klan by Gene Luen Yang, it is pretty damn awesome.
