The Great Villain Showdown [1st Round Closed]

[Melkor Lord Of ALL!]

We need more votes or epic evil Morgoth will lose to this annoying coyote! I remember watching this cartoon as a child, I hated it. It was so boring, at last Tom and Jerry had some plot.

Oh, and I am the only one to vote Dominator and Dark One against Dr Doom and Joker. Nobody else prefer epic fantasy sagas to comics? I can't believe it. At last Voldemort is ahead of Raistlin, both interesting characters but only one is true villain.

I wanted to nominate Song of Ice and Fire villain but couldn't decide between Tywin Lannister, Gregor the Mountain and Littlefinger. How would they fare? And there is always Necroscope.

Edited, nevermind.

i really wish the responses came with ages and stuff. Is every voting against Boswer over 40?

And OF COURSE Wile E Coyote:super genius is gonna beat some guy from the appendixes of an already torturous read, whos main disciple is a giant glowing eye.

Comics almost always trump novels, especially in contests where pictures are necessary. I wanted to nominate Torak from the Belgariad, but couldnt find a decent pic.

Picking a villain from A Song of Ice and Fire is impossible. The whole point of the series is to show you that evil and good are dependant on which side youre on. My personal opinion is that Jon Snow is the worst bad guy in the series. But Jaime was considered by most the baddie until he got his own POV, and I bet the same will happen to Cersei.

Its sad that Ultron isnt getting enough respect and is losing to a clown like Doc Ock, you guys need to read more comics.

BOWSER! BOWSER! BOWSER! BOWSER!

I am 22, but only comics I have read in childhood are Superman, Batman, GI JOE, Transformers(my favourite), Spiderman, Asterix, Smerfs, some Polish ones, Disney and Hanna Barbera, plus some Polish ones, I am slightly familiar with X-men and Punisher. Nowadays fantasy epics are things that I really enjoy, my favorite being Song of Ice and Fire and Necroscope, also Wheel of Time and Harry Potter. Huge nostalgia factor will make me support Gargamel and Megatron, but I don't know and care about Dr Doom. I also don't care about Bond villians and the like, since I prefer fantasy and horror. Toughest one for me was Rastlin versus Voldemort.

And I didn't provide pic for Morgoth, is this the reason he does not fare well? But any imagination would make him more threatening than this coyote loser.

Hey, maybe he's just an (incompetent) avatar of Pennywise or Violator (the clown from Spawn). Take him off the poll!!!

No, but I nominated them, so I'm a bit biased. Maybe the Lady and Lanfear would have fared better...

On my other nominations...
I'm surprised that Palpatine hasn't blown away Iago -- I guess there are more Shakesphere fans out there than I thought. Dukat has been pretty competitive, so I guess the DS9 contingent is around.

Yes, those two would be better, Lanfear is actually my favourite Wheel of Time character. It seems like we must prepare the new edition, or only book villains context.

And how about Kitiara instead of Raistiln? I have something for powerful and beautiful evil women. Madame the Winter should be there, I love how she murdered the love of D'Artagnan.

Oh, and would Wagner's Kane classify as villain?

Pedron Niall was clearly the best Wheel of Time villian in my book, but he died in book 7.

What did he do? He was cool, but didn't accomplish much.
