So this is really looking to establish a group of lower-scale villains and other interested causes for their own needs. everyone knows all the big wigs are getting connected and networking - what with the Initiative setting things up for heroes and the Alliance and Spectre working at it for the other side, it leaves a lot of small ground to cover. Not everyone wants world domination, after all.
Some people just want to rob a bank to pay rent. Some want to extort a politician not to pass a dickish law. You know how it is; take matters into your own hands. Maybe even work for hire to do some dirty work that regular humans can't handle.
Something I plan on establish Comic as is one of these small-timers; someone who would gladly take on a "henchman" role to a crime lord, who would be fine with just breaking safes with her bare hands or guarding illegal shipments, all the while avoiding getting involved in over-the-top crazy city-destroying plans. Everyday joe stuff is what is the concern here, and she can't be the only one.
It would makes sense if there was a small group who tended to end up running into each other or working with one another; maybe they keep accidentally trying to rob the same few banks, maybe they both get hired by the same crook, who knows. i imagine it eventually end up like some kind of small-scale injustice league and going from there.
of course, with this comes needing some equally interested heroes and vigilantes in having to stop these guys every few weeks or so. i could go on and on but the idea is there.

hello physis is here, she's a very street level vigilante. think more daredevil/batman with less hardware.
she doesn't necessarily care if anyone wants to rob a bank or blackmail a politician. she does care if regular people are coming under harm. basically if you deal in the mutant or the flesh trade then she doesn't like you. if you deal with kidnapping or extort protection money from locals then she doesn't like you.
so i guess she's your ... selective enemy? depending on the job
