#theres a family of superheroes but the girl with healing powers has serious issues and i think goes evil?

[why-is-it-always-autumn]

every time i think i know what worm is about i see a post like "did [character ive never heard of] effectively utilize girl power when she [horrific human rights violation]?" and I have to try to figure out how tf that fits into anything

#from what ive gathered #its about a girl with bug powers who wants to be a superhero but semi-accidentally becomes a supervillain instead #her hometown is full of gangs #i think she ends up taking over and/or destroying most of the gangs? #every so often giant horrific eldritch monstrosities attack and everybody with powers has to team up to fight them #theres at least one shady government(?) organization giving people powers that turn them into monsters #the multiverse is real and they sometimes import media from a universe where superheroes dont exist #theres a group of government sponsored teen heroes just sort of hanging out #theres a gang of serial killers led by the joker if editorial mandates were a canon superpower #theres a family of superheroes but the girl with healing powers has serious issues and i think goes evil? #also all of these people get powers by being traumatized which means theyre all wildly unstable #(this is deliberate) #the main character changes her codename at least once possibly twice im still not sure if the second one is a name or a title #i think a few people change their codenames actually #i still dont know why its called worm #i also dont know whats spoilers and whats just information presented up front when relevant
