My Villainous Fantasies, Part 3, the Finale: The Coolest Villains of All Time

These aren't characters I have fantasized about being.  They're just really cool villains.

Laplace's demon or just a cryptic cat that likes to screw with people's heads?  Either way, the Cheshire Cat is very cool, but tragically did not make the cut!

My Villainous Fantasies, Part 2: Truly Evil

Who do I fantasize about being when I fantasize about being truly evil?

Answer: two serial killers and a demon of the psyche.  Plus, real vs. penny dreadful images of serial killers and what qualifies as "truly evil" to someone who included Don Corleone and Tyler Durdan on their "antihero" list...

Patrick Bateman, serial killer from American Psycho.  Did not make the cut, but close. 

My Villainous Fantasies, Addendum: Can you be a good Christian and fantasize about being a villain?

A little on psychology, archetype and how the best vengeance is to thrive...

Ganesha, son of Shiva the Destroyer and Lord of Shiva's followers, the ganas.  Not evil even remotely, but provides a good psychodynamic explanation of why it's good to sometimes fantasize about things you're not...

My Villainous Fantasies, Part 1: Antiheros

I asked Roger Owen which villains he has fantasized about being.  I felt his answer was insufficiently evil.

Dirty Harry, you are an awesome antihero.  So sorry you didn't make the cut!
