If a card rewards defeating a Villain, does the reward still count when that Villain was defeated before the card was played?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes. Defeat-a-Villain rewards are floating: they can be met at any point in the turn, whether the defeat comes before or after the card is played. Influence from a broomstick counts that same turn.
