I wasn't thinking so much of subtlety as of underlying motivation. Comic books often have villains who do evil by a conscious choice to do evil for the sake of doing evil. But I don't see that as a way that actual people in the real world define their motives. And I don't find it interesting as characterization for narrative purposes; it tends to produce melodrama rather than drama.
