  • Villians
    Jan 27 2026

    To have a great hero, you need a great villain. In this episode, Russ and Tim dig into what makes an effective antagonist. Whether they’re an equal, an opposite, or a force more powerful than the hero. They dig into why villains get a bad rap, why they deserve as much care as your protagonist, and how to sidestep the tired tropes that flatten them out. If you want your hero to grow, it starts with writing a villain worth facing.

The key isn’t avoiding tropes, but using them in smart, fresh ways.
