Yeah, Lex Luthor came into mind during the Young Adulthood phase. Honestly, at first, my first inspiration started with a morally ambiguous Tony Stark, the immense jealousy of Dr. Doom, and the circumstances and concept of a guy with no powers born from superpowered parents. I honestly don't see the trope used often and I can see how that would make anybody jealous especially if they were renown for their heroics. Imagine Lex Luthor if he had to shoulder that kind of burden. At the same time, he still loves his parents and wants to do good for the world, but at the same time, he feels he is entitled to what genetics should have naturally graced him with.
