    The only “evil power fantasy” I would want would be to continue doing good, while breaking the no-killing/bring them to courts rule; especially if it could be shown that the bad guys ignore/pay off courts.

    It’s not fitting for Superman, but it’s basically why the Yakuza series feels compelling.

      The problem with taking people’s lives is that it erodes your soul. Once you submit to the grisley work of judge, jury, and execution, you lose the ability to see people as people.

      You could also just show up to a board meeting or similar and keep pushing them to the ground until they stopped trying to stand up, then tell them to give all their money away or you’ll just keep bullying them in increasingly humiliating ways.
