Hero/Villain Critique

James Myers' Hero/Villain
This is a critique of James Myers' Characters:

The characters developped by Jimmy show great creativity. I like the contrast of color, using blue and green between his hero and villain. The hero is mostly green, symbolizing his love of money, considering he is 'Mr. Money Bags', rightfully so. The Tax Man is much more bland, kind of boring with a suit (ripped due to bulging muscles) with his IRS briefcase and nerdy glasses. The Hero appears much brighter than the villain, maybe due to the choices with hue and  saturation. The hue as I mentioned for the Hero was an analogous color scheme using greens and yellows, and the villain was basically just blue, making the two of them almost a split-complementary color scheme when used together, making it aesthetically pleasing to the viewer. The storyline and character relationship is very creative, taking a boring taxman and making him an evil genius is pretty funny and Mr. Money Bags, how could that not be everyone’s hero, the guy is clearly an excellent role model and can make money grow out of nowhere, whenever he wants, what a swell guy. It is ironic that the tax man is a villain, considering that an everyday tax man is working for the government to collect money to make this country the way it is, making that a good thing, yet he is perceived as evil because no one wants to hand their money over to the government.
