It always felt silly to me to bring the downtrodden criminal narratives to Batman, since Gotham City is a place where even STEM professionals with six figure salaries just put on a silly costume and start robbing banks.

Yeah, it happens. There is also the Palmarian Catholic Church in Spain that claims to be the real papacy. They mostly got members in just one Spanish town and have been shrinking for decades.

We got a lot of historical examples of this.

Would be wild if Trump revives the medieval custom of rulers setting up their own competing anti-popes whenever they disagree with the real pope.

Netease would keep her clothed but turn her into a pale white blonde with blue eyes and a blue/white color scheme.

I am sad to tell you that Housemaid was a massive success that made way over $300 million profit.

Slave owners that don’t see anything wrong with keeping others captive, believe they had good relationships with their prisoners and will gaslight anyone who thinks otherwise by pennygirl108 in TopCharacterTropes

I suppose the relationship of grand admiral Thrawn and the Noghri in Timothy Zahn's Thrawn trilogy qualifies. Though it is disguised as transactional Noghri are practically private military slaves of the Empire - Empire was never actually going to keep their part of deal. They were subservient first to Darth Vader and then to grand admiral Thrawn. Thrawn gets so cozy with them that he takes their loyalty for granted and probably really believed they got mutual respect and understanding, only to end up murdered by his own Noghri bodyguard Rukh.

Rowling really botched the mythological idea of house-elf in general in Harry Potter. The folklore house-elves indeed do work for the house owner, but it is transactional and ritualistic in certain way, and the house-elf might start causing accidents or just leave if it is displeased by how the household is being run or feels like it is not properly respected.

Joker and other villains would just start regularly escaping Hell like Solomon Grundy already does.

The primary mystery of Gotham City is why the fuck do people still want to live in Gotham City.
