This may be more up Klen7's alley than anything.

Villaincast is a podcast by C-Rank Supervillain FrostBlight who will be interviewing different supervillains and discussing their origins and what its like to live in their world.
INCREDIBLY ROUGH, but I like this idea and I'm going to try to improve it when I get more people involved as guests. If you've got 30 minutes (which is longer than I intended this to be...the script wasn't even that long and I cut stuff out), please give this a listen and tell me how awful it is.

I'll have to check out this and your others in the near future now that I'm finally caught up on If it Bleeds, We can Kill it.

Update having listened:
I don't think this is an idea for me...and the more I think about it, the more I think there's not really any way it could be:

-made up villains/heroes don't interest me because I just don't really care about invented heroes/villains/their backgrounds, etc.
-doing existing stuff wouldn't work because it would fall too into fanfic territory.

Interesting idea for those who might like it, doesn't work for me personally.
Something I think might make it work better would be to have those made-up villains compare themselves to existing heroes/villains, though. Frostblight wishing he was as well-known as Mr. Freeze...stating he's only a C-list villain because of his C-list hero, while anybody who goes up against Batman automatically gets to be like a B villain just because he's Batman....those kinds of points might hit home more and be more entertaining if there could be a mixture of these invented villains on your end kinda viewed through the lens of existing DC/Marvel/etc stuff.

<shrug> whatever...I mean, he name-drops spider-man and a couple others along the way, don't know how it would hurt to have a connection to something a listener might identify with...

I think thats more in the vein of Venture Bros. which regularly reference comic characters as comic characters despite the parallels that exist within their own universe.
