My 3yo always identifies with the antagonist in all media. In Paw Patrol, he wants to be Mayor Humdinger. In Robin Hood, Prince John. In The Fantastic Mr Fox, the farmers. In Mystery Lane, The Evil Knight. In Pippi Longstocking, Kling & Klang and (I kid you not) Miss Prysselius
We read a comic about a girl called Klara who, upon being sent to boarding school, runs away to join a racoon themed street gang in a fictive 1930s Stockholm. My son latched onto a single-panel woman who hits Klara over the head with a broom for rummaging through the trash.
