Thread: Villains

  1. #1
    It's about time we started having a "heated debate". So I thought I'd post a couple of new topics to get the ball rolling.

    Who, in your opinion, is the best literary/fictional villain?? Opinions could be clouded by films and suchlike but we'll have to live with that.

    My choice would be Captain Dudley Smith from the James Ellroy series of Detective/Crime books (LA Confidential, The Big Nowhere,Etc). What a bastard!! He postively resonates with evil, sleaze and degradation. He moves through LA's seedy underworld like a shark preying on anyone weak or stupid enough to get in his way. Twisted, manipulative, greedy - class character.

    Impress me Bookworld!!

    ps I realise there is a typo in the topic heading. D'oh!!

    Damn. That's a mean, mean question.

    There's Steerpike from the Gormenghast trilogy.

    Hm. Now that I think about it, I don't read many books with villians.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    The ultimate villain must be Prof Moriarty.

    He even appears here sometimes.

    I like Randall Flag/ The Walking Man from Stephen King's The Stand. For some reason whenever I hear the song Bad Company from Bad Company I think of him.

    Does anyone know who he is. Without looking below, or doing a search.

    Don&#39;t look

    I did. So be honest, post your answer.
