who is the most well-known villain that could be described as "The Accountant"? in a sort of archetypal sense. like the Joker might be The Fool, The Jester, etc. Thanos might be The Warlord. (I suppose there's a Malthusian character to it...) But who's ~realllly~... account-y

The best realized character in this archetype may be Xanatos from the Gargoyles series, and he succeeds because of brilliance and insanely convoluted gambits. That isn't how capitalists routinely achieve their preferences! They organize, architect, deploy, and scale!

Since Superman is a known alien, I assumed that “Clark Kent” was only viable bc people didn’t expect him to need a secret identity at all. Random citizen: “Wait, he’s got a secret fortress, is fed by the sun, but _chooses_ to pay rent in Metropolis and work at the newspaper??”
