I would've liked to have a couple with the Katguys taking on someone
without any supernatural/hypernatural overtones (like "Steele" in my
"Unmasked" thing, or some natural disaster as suggested above), and perhaps
even do a story where they have to ally themselves with one of the villains
with a common, if temporary, goal. A lot of the better eps of ac/adv series
have used this "pact with evil" theme to good effect; "Gargoyles", "He-Man"...
yadda, yadda.

The H-B villain-in-waiting closest to the "without super powers" description
would probably be Elliot Kliban from the unused "Blackout" premise on the
Rat.org site. Tremblays also had plans for "Nimbus, the Weather Warrior"
on some kind of motorcycle, but as their tastes run to the radically "visual",
I'd bet this dude was intended as supernatural as you could get.
