And you know what they say about bombs--some days you just can't get rid of them.

2 more public domain villains. Both of these guys tangled with Lash Lightning back in the day. Both of these are by an artist named Anthony Green
First up, The Mummy. He's a doctor who found a way of using radium to make himself invulnerable to bullets and such after treating some wrappings with the serum. He also uses a "hotlight" gun which blinds opponents, and acts like a laser:
Mastermind was able to duplicate Lash's control over electricity, and could also teleport. Too bad he had terrible fashion sense:

A pair of public domain characters done by an artist named Richard Spake:
The first villain is Blackout, a Nazi agent & Saboteur who strikes during blackouts. Highly skilled person who uses a gun, knife and has a gang of thugs to work for him. Also uses explosives when necessary.
The second is The Red Knight. He ran afoul of the original Blue Beetle:

This well-experienced superhero comes to us from the work of Andreas Englund--
Don't let his age fool you--he can still dish it out with the best of them--

These aphorisms of yours just don't fly in a complex environment of palindromedaries and indoor heated variable power pools

Never underestimate the power of the press to make a superhero's life more difficult.
A laboratory accident is like a box of chocolates. You never know what abilities you'll wind up getting.
One world's mutant terrorist is another world's freedom fighter.
Stick to dealing with supervillains robbing banks. If you try to solve a real world problem with superpowers, the press will crucify you if you make a mistake and the government will start getting twitchy if you succeed.
Never get into a romance with someone more powerful than yourself. If the relationship ends badly, you can be in for a world of hurt.

Be polite to everyone. The next person you meet might be a world-class supervillain in their secret ID.
Even in a world with superpowers, knowledge is power.
Everyone has their kryptonite. Mine is cupcakes.
Spandex is a privilege, not a right.
Superscience has built powered armor suits that can fly and fire lasers without needing to be recharged ... but our smartphones still crap out before we get the chance to recharge them.
The worst part of being a superhero is the slash fanfic.

I don't know as this is what you're looking for, but I always thought it was appropriate for a world where superpowers are real--
