Albert Uderzo, co-creator of popular French comic Astérix, passed away today at age 92. One of the last comic art titans of Europe. Hergé, Morris, Franquin, Goscinny, Mœbius—strange to think they’re all gone now.

Here’s a selection of concept art by Daniel Cacouault (1-4), some animation art, and design sketches of Astérix and Obelix by Uderzo himself, dated 1959.

Different Types of Villains

Hi everyone! I thought I’d make a post about the most popular villains across every genre in the cinematic and literature world. Hopefully, this can help you create your antagonist (or protagonist if you’re mixing it up) and really craft them until they satisfy your writing needs.

—

The Crazy Monsters

Perhaps the most common form of a villain, at least in horror books, happens to be crazy monsters. These villains are specifically meant to make pee your pants and toss the book across the room. Be it a demon, shape-shifting clown, or an actual human who runs around violently murdering people, these villains can make or break any novel.

Due to the little character development or complexity of their background, if this villain is not scary enough, your novel will not have a backbone to support itself on, especially if it is centered around the actions of this villain.

In a sense, most believe that giving these villains an explained reason for their horrid actions takes away from the fear factor, but we suggest you give them a background that is as dark and gruesome as they are, and make their actions speak for themselves. That way, your monster will have legs to stand on. You don’t have to include the background in your novel, but rather snippets of their past through their actions if you’d rather be more discrete.

The “Chill” Ones

The “chill” villains are typically your everyday football-loving dads. What makes them a villain is the fact that secretly, once the game is over and the kids are sleep, they become sinister beings, blind to even the clearest eye.

Jordan Peele’s “Get Out” executes this villain perfectly with the family of the protagonist’s girlfriend. They are as mannerful as normal people come, which only makes them more creepy. They use their warmth to reel victims in, and their natural evilness shines before the good guy has a chance to realize what happened. Why is the kind, sweet, artistic girl from school suddenly shooting people in the back?

Crafting this sort of villain can be challenging due to the fact that them putting on a calm face makes them more psychotic and dangerous. Therefore, their motivations have to be clear. Ask yourself why your yoga mom of three kids goes around town burning houses in the middle of the night.

The difference between this villain and the “Falsely Innocent” villain from below is the fact that these “good” guys are not usually putting on an act. As Stephen King said, “to face the fact, let us say, that murderers sometimes help old ladies cross the street.”

These guys are more complex than they are evil, so be sure to craft them carefully!

The Falsely Innocent

As stated above, these villains are different than the “Chill” villains for one simple reason:

They are acting.

They don’t really care about their family. They don’t care about anything. They only want you to think that they do. Typically, this sort of villain reveals themselves at the end of a book or movie with some sort of mystery. However, this can be seen as a cliche. Cliches are fine, they are popular for a reason, but you can add a twist to this by doing it in reverse. Have your seemingly evil villain turn out to be a good guy, but he’d never let anyone know.

This villain is normally faking their innocence in order to not get caught by the protagonist or main characters, so be sure to supply an effective method to hide these villains by blending them in. Meaning, maybe the “hero” shares some devilishly strange manners themselves...

The Sharp PGs

These villains are fabulous. Disney has their special purpose serving these villains, but they work well within any genre. They believe in the coolest costumes, witty comebacks, and are sometimes surprisingly funny.

The problem with these guys is that they seem like someone who was created off of an online plot generator.

Give them depth beyond their purpose, and that will inspire their motivation. This type of villain is broad, as it can include many things, except gore and horror. For example, let’s say your villain is considered the bad guy simply because he has a drinking problem, or he accidentally electrocuted someone.

An anatogist does not always have to be someone who crawled out of the farthest corner of hell, but simply someone who made a mistake.

For more complex villains, combine these categories and see what works for your novel. Of course, there are more types of villains beyond these, as I only covered a few. Don’t forget to follow for more writing tips, tricks, and help!

“I am going to climb over this table to personally strangle you, don’t you dare!”

— - said OOC by me, seconds before the party cleric cast sending to yell directly into my character’s brain while she was fucking an NPC

relatablegenzwriter

a ps freakin a

“i want to write but i can’t seem to get anything down, i open a document and stare at a blank page for so long because i have no idea how to start my story hhhhnnnngggghhhh”

plot twist

you don’t have to start at the beginning

write the scenes are strongest in your mind first! it’ll make you more interested in writing the story, get you some practice, and orient yourself. THEN you go write the beginning once you know where you’re trying to go!! upend writing hierarchy!! knock out a first draft!! save the bees!!

icantwritegood

and always write the important events first because then u can foreshadow the FUCK out of stuff throughout the story!!!

30-Day Writing Challenge (for novelists)

this challenge is intended for novel writers who have had a strong novel idea for a while and know their story fairly well, or who have already made a little progress on a novel, and are stuck on it. i’m not an expert so i don’t know how much this is actually going to help you get out of that rut, but the hope is that you’ll spend a month immersing yourself in the world of your story and you’ll get some motivation out of it. i’d suggest taking about 30 minutes (at least) to do each activity, and to do everything completely distraction-free, with your phone in another room and your computer on do not disturb (if you’re writing on a computer). enjoy you nerds.

1. Write out your entire plot, even if you’ve already done it. This will re-familiarize you with your project.

2. Get the basic information on your main character. Write their backstory up until the point where your novel begins, make note of characteristics, and get their basic appearance down. Got multiple main characters? Great! You get to write more. (That’s what you get.) For all characters, make sure you know:

your character’s wants

your character’s values

at least five character flaws

the role your character will play in the story

how you want them to change over the course of the story

optional but recommended: cultural aspects like race or religion, which will help you develop their background and values a lot better.

3. Do some basic worldbuilding: what year is this novel set? Country? Planet? What are some traditions or norms? Is there magic or new technology? What’s up with the government? If your novel is set in our current world, work out the specifics of the characters’ neighborhood, home, city, etc.

4. Without allowing yourself to see any previous versions that may exist, write the opening scene.

5. Do what you did on day 2, except for your antagonist. No clear-cut antagonist? Pick whoever’s closest, or do the prompts for a supporting or minor character.

6. Research day: go through what you’ve already written and highlight everything you wanted to look up later, then spend some time researching it. You’ll probably find out more things that you’ll want to add to the plot.

7. Character day: you’ll have four of these, so divide up your characters accordingly. Do some of the character work you did for your main and antagonist for however many . You can go into less detail if they’re less important, but make sure you still know the six main points that you got to know about the more featured characters.

8. Pick a few parts of your worldbuilding exercise that you want to go more in-depth into (i.e. political systems, technology, cultural traditions) and spend about thirty minutes writing, brainstorming, and researching things to flesh them out. There will be three worldbuilding days, so make sure to save some material for the others!

9. Look through the plot you wrote out and see if you can find any plotholes, concepts you want to flesh out more, or parts that are unclear or missing. Really take some time to understand what the problems are, and come up with some possible solutions. It’s great if you figure out what you want to do, but if you don’t, that’s fine! You still made progress.

10. Without allowing yourself to see any previous versions that may exist, write the ending scene. Spoiler alert: this is going to be really hard. You can try writing a couple contenders, or even outlining a scene if you’re not quite sure where to go. Don’t worry about trying to make it pretty, because it’s not gonna be pretty: you don’t have all the details that you would if you were writing in chronological order.

11. Character day

12. Write your favorite scene. If you have a strong story idea in your head, you most likely know the one: you daydream about it when you wish you were doing something else, it plays like a movie in your head, it’s probably located somewhere around the middle of the book, and you probably haven’t let yourself write it because you “haven’t gotten there yet”. Today’s the day. Go nuts.

13. Rewrite the opening scene from a different character’s perspective. I know this sounds really cliche, but even if it doesn’t give you more insight on the story, it’s fun to do.

14. Worldbuilding day

15. Research day: research new stuff that you hadn’t written last time, plus anything over from the first research day. Not sure what to research? Characters’ cultures, the history of your setting (if in our world), famous fictional worlds, language development… if you sit and think for a little, you’ll figure out something you want to know.

16. Pick a few of your favorite character relationships: romantic, platonic, familial, whatever you want, and spend some time sketching them out. Think about their arcs, how they met (if they’re not related), what they think about each other, how they interact… basically anything you want, as long as you come away knowing more about the relationships between your characters. Also, please make only half (or less) of these romantic! It’s super important to develop the other relationships in the story.

17. Pick up from where you left off in your opening scene and write the next scene. Again, don’t look at any previously existing drafts.

18. Character day

19. Emotion break! Make a list of everything you don’t like about your book. Get all your insecurities out onto the paper, then refute everything you don’t like. If it’s specifics like “I don’t like that x happens”, figure out how to make x not happen. If it’s general doubts like “This has been done before and I’m unoriginal,” refute that too! Everyone doubts their work all the time and I can guarantee that we are all more critical of our own work than others will be. Finish today’s unconventional activity off by writing a list of everything you love about your book.

20. Pick any scene you’ve written for this book, whether it be from this challenge or something you had before, and rewrite it in some form of AU. Change the genre, time period, location, context… you are a god.

21. Worldbuilding day

22. You know those books that are stories told entirely in poems? You heard me. (Start anywhere you want to, write at least five or however many you can get done in 30 minutes. No one will ever read them, so don’t complain that you’re not a poet.)

23. Find a list of dialogue prompts and pick a few to do with your characters. Want a challenge? Choose two characters at random. (I mean using a generator or drawing names out of a hat. COMPLETELY random.)

24. Pick up from day 16 and write the next scene.

25. Last character day :(

26. Write, or at least, begin, a very short story in your world. Try to include no characters from your actual story. If your novel takes place in our world, focus in on the characters’ neighborhood, time period, workplace, school, etc. This exercise will help you get to know your world through a different perspective. Don’t stress too much about this! It doesn’t have to be very long or even to be finished.

27. Fun day! Pick three of these activities to do with your novel:

Make a playlist about the novel as a whole, or make some character playlists

Design the cover

Cast actors in the film/TV version

Draw: character portraits, scenes, maps, landscapes…

Put together a moodboard for the novel or a character

Write that completely unrealistic scene you love so much but can’t put in the novel for plot reasons

Make memes about your characters

Sit and daydream for a solid 10 minutes about the Vibe of the novel

Anything that falls into a similar category

This is a callout activity for all you ””””””””writers”””””””” who spend more time daydreaming about novel ideas than actually writing. (this is 100% a joke because this is 100% me)

28. Rewrite your opening scene from a different narrator. If you wrote in first person, use third. If you wrote in third, use first. You can also mess with second person if you feel like you have an artist superiority complex and aren’t like other girls.

29. Pick your favorite activity from so far and do it again.

30. List everything that you need to do before you can jump right into the first draft. Then do it.
