That was my take from the comic. He did his job flawlessly.
Until you learn that previously someone had come to him asking how to get revenge on their boss and company in that building for firing them, and Middle Man got the world’s best arsonist on the job.
Maybe the arsonist was recruited by Middle Man’s arch nemesis. They’re basically the same abilities-wise; the only real difference is alignment. Middle Man uses these powers to help the innocent, his nemesis uses them to obtain power and wealth.
Not sure what his nemesis should be named though. Maybe Middle Manager, and he uses his powers for petty control? Middle Man once convinced a cosmetic surgeon for rich celebrities to fly to a war-torn country and help land mine victims. Middle Manager once convinced Martha Stewart do his laundry for a season.
