Who's the most interesting, or the scariest, or the most likable, or whatever it takes to qualify as a good villain?

Or any others not in this poll....You can only have 10 options.... ;)

Elmer Chambers is no nice guy either. :evil:

Blaine the Mono!
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. John Stuart Mill

You're right of course!! 8O

I just realized I left Blaine off the poll, and dropped Martin (who I consider a minor-leaguer) in favor of the haunted train. ;)

I went with Rhea, because of what she did to Susan AND Roland. I think the worst thing anyone has done to Roland was her tricking him into killing his own mother. How horrific. Poor Roland :(

But you know, I don't think she started out as really evil, just a cantankerous old lady. It was the glass....

Is Flagg the same person, or is it just the name?

I didn't like Flagg - for some reason I find the Wizard irritating. I would have said either Blaine or Rhea - I went for Rhea. Although I do think Cordelia was just as bad (maybe worse) for doing that thing without the evil influence of the Glass that Rhea had....

Cordelia was under Rhea's spell. But, she was contemptable too. Her jealousy of Susan was overwhelming.

I chose Blaine by a hair over Flagg . . . but for amusement content, I'd go with Detta Walker. I just love her way of speaking!!! :wink:

Rhea. She killed Susan and caused Roland to become a Matricide.

SHARDIK!!!!!!!
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

Shardik wasn't a villain. He was just an old guardian bear who got mixed up in the head. I've seen vets have to put down worse. :P
