Good as Gold: A Villainous Love Story

Villainous Love Stories seriesNext:The Amateur: A Villainous Love Story(2016) →

Being the most powerful superhero in the world can get lonely.

Ask the Golden Ranger. He's still struggling to make friends after landing on Earth two years ago, even now that he's become a member of the Remarkables. Humans are just so complicated, with their odd aversion to public nudity, their obsession with sex, and their temperamental genitals.

Thank goodness for his villains. Sure, they're crooks and it's his job to thwart them, but at least they offer him a chance for social interaction. And they're all pretty cool, as villains go. Henry X has a gun that can fire anything from exploding bullets to robot bees, and he's also got these incredible biceps and warm brown eyes - not that the Golden Ranger cares about stuff like that. Light Brigade can create holograms, plus he's handsome and snarky and covered in tattoos - again, not that the Golden Ranger cares. The Sash can use his clothing as a weapon, which isn't really fair seeing as how his slinky body would be an effective weapon all by itself. Which isn't something the Golden Ranger cares about. At all.

It's possible that the other Remarkables are right when they accuse the Golden Ranger of being a little too intrigued by his rogues gallery. But he thinks they're just jealous. Even so, when they tell him that Henry X, Light Brigade and the Sash are working for someone who might be a threat to the whole city, the Golden Ranger knows he needs to learn the truth. And what better way to do that than by adopting a civilian disguise and getting to know his villains personally? It's a brilliant plan. Nothing can go wrong.
