If yoa had to narrow it down, what are your top 5 villains in any form of media? 👀👀
I told you I'd get around to this!! Let's start the beatdown!!
5. Noximillian the Clockmaker from Wakfu. I love his voice, animation, and design. His story is rich and fits really well into the overall story. Not to mention I WANT HIS GENDER. Nox, my beloved.
4. The Headless Horseman!! Specifically the Tim Burton version. The whole thing with him emerging from the tangle of roots in that massive tree is just so badass. I'm not fond of how witchcraft is represented in that movie but I give credit where it's due for that magnificent and iconic character
Even though really the stepmother is the true villain, really, it's not what the movie is known for.
3. The Riddler. I like the more grounded and gritty 2022 version best. He's a truly twisted, skrunkly little guy. Need I say more? Paul Dano did an excellent job playing that dubious dude. I love his mind games. I even learned his cipher alphabet.
2. Mr. Hyde/Dr. Jekyll. 1800's sci-fi evil doctor with a wretched appearance? Count me in! I do love literature of that era and not once have I been disappointed by an iteration of the character. It has inspired a good number of my stories, you see? And not to mention how many times I read that book as a child. Hundreds of times, probably. Nostalgia factor!
1. The Invisible Man from the 1933 classic. HE. IS. SO. COOL. His story, his voice, the symbolism, NOT TO MENTION HIS APPEARANCE!! I adore him so much. I want his vibe so bad. Did you know that his laugh is what inspired the Joker laugh? Also, his actor Claude Rains is hot. He's hot. The effects for the time were incredible, not gonna lie. Black was a color that could be filmed over again on silver screen rolls, so to achieve the invisible effect, he wore a full black velvet morphsuit of sorts. Can you imagine those people back then, seeing that groundbreaking effect on the cinema screen for the first time? What a riot!
Honorable mentions: Hannibal Lector, Doc Ock, and my very own oc No. 3, that bastard.
