Ba-pshch! Megatron was the shiznit. The Beast Wars version anyway... he wasn't that cool in the original, and Beast Machines was a horrible rape of the series that I refuse to even acknowledge past this. I mean, he's a robot AND a dragon. Plus he has a laser.

Emperor Ming.

The Master. Even if he had used up all of his thirteen, I forgot the term, he still cames back to bother the Doctor.

Lex Luthor. (The Evil super genius from earth two. Not the evil greedy coporative guy, or the lame Earth one counter part. Well at least the Earth one LL had hair).

Doctor Doom.

Just love the old school villians.

Who's that crazy kook that's destroying the world. It's Zorc (That's me) It's Zorc and Pals.

Evil is a bit more vile when the villain actually chooses, for some reason or another, to turn their back on compassion and decency. But when being evil is just your nature, it's like an animal acting on instinct. It's too easy.

That, and most of the villains who claim to be Evil Incarnate or Darkness Made Flesh or whatever don't live up to their own hype.

and Please, have all candidate be beatable, physical, tangible sentient beings, the great Nothing from the Neverending story, while very powerful, is disqualified...because I said so.

If it wasn't for those conditions, I would have to say God.

A true, evil villan doesn't think of themselves as evil. They see themselves as the hero, doing what is right and good.

They are the kind of person that will burn the village to save the village, that will kill an innocent child to save them from falling into a life of sin.

I can't think of any good examples right now, but I know there are some characters like that out there.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

Emperor Palpatine...guy corrupted and dominated the Galactic Republic, turned it into the Empire, almost squashed democracy in the galaxy, corrupted or arranged the murder of hundreds (if not thousands) of Jedi, and had not one, not two, not three, nor four, but at LEAST five different world-destroying machines constructed (prototype Death Star, Death Stars 1 and 2, World Devastators, and the Galaxy Gun...don't know if that Sun Destroyer thing Kyp Durron stole would count, but it probably does).

He took the Dark Side farther than it had ever gone before, and was an all around evil dude.

He's the worst evil. Sauron? Couldn't even conquer a continent.

No. It's women I tell ya! I've even constructed a theory to link the religions of Judeo/Christian/Islamic belief with Wiccans and the Goddess of the Neo Pagans.

Satan is a woman, the Goddess! And she's God's ex-wife.

Make it look really really good, and we might even pretend it's something halfway original. And if we're feeling generous, we'll pretend it's funny, too.

Lets see Dr. Doom is up there without a doubt as one of the biggest bad guys out there.

Thanos is another in Doom's caliber of bad-ness.

Lex Luthor would be yet another, as would Joker all for various reasons.

Palpatine is yet another good choice no doubt.

But for the Greatest Evil Villian, I would have to nominate someone who outschemes them all...

Adrian Veidt from Alan Moore's "The Watchmen" (Man I have to reread that sometime soon)

He manipulated everyone from the scattered heroes of the world (granted most of them were merely costumed acrobatic humans with gadgets but still), to the world governments to the one other superbeing on the planet (Dr. Manhatten) who has omnipotence in his powers list among other things. Not only that, when the heroes did finally confront Veidt on what he was doing, Veidt did do the classic "I'll explain my plans to you since you can't stop them" schtict that villains usually do... but with a twist. you see, when he was explaining his plans, he was confident the heroes couldn't stop them *because the plans were already complete and done at that point*

Very few other villains out there rank up there IMO.

*snarls at Caldur* Gee.. thanks, fucktard.

Hmm.. evil? Well I am not lame as to blame all my woes on the male half of the human race. Thats just as dumb as what others have claimed here. Let's see.. its truly hard to pick any one or even small handful as I have seen/read many 'evils' that would qualify. =) Then again Id hafta agree with Woody cause its too damned funny ;P

There goes the mob mentality again. I appreciate being called a fucktard, and BM's little witty retort. Now before we digress into anymore of the "stfu newbie" or you aren't as "l33t" as us with our supposed brilliant wit, superior sarcasm, and nifty little vocabulary.

Let's see what happens when we don't just assume something. If we scroll up we see an entire post missing due to an edit, at the sametime the "Women!" post was made. Not being so wonderfully computer savvy, guess that makes me a fucktard or some other cute little EC lingo word. Back to the point. In my ignorance (Real meaning of the word being misinformed)on most of these commands, I made a mistake on my post and ended up deleting it.

Now the real point being, in my missing post I went into why I think Women have been the best villians. That in history and literature a female villian has almost always been more interesting than their male counterparts.

Because from a societal point of view and lack of power they have had to do so from behind the scenes. From Lady MacBeth in literature to the Medici women of Europe to Hyrem of the Ottoman Empire. Women have had very limited roles, and yet worked those limits to such brilliance to weild absolute power from behind the scenes. And even then were still above approach because women were considered not capable.

Anyways, I'm not going back into all of the examples and details. Not really worth it. And even if my post was "girls=evil"..so what? I've seen just as lame, unoriginal, and unfunny posts from a good deal of you. Some of you people have alot of growing up to do, some are just damn hypocrites.
