What he said. Best villain ever. what? the joker wins in like every other appearence Yeah, most of the time Batman is just catching up to him after he's offed several dozen people or been on a days long killing spree. He wins a lot.

Every now and then a Villain or group of Villains comes around that are so supremely cool or bad ass that you hope that they'll actually triumph, you know they never will, and you find that just disappointing. In the Anime/Manga Helling I think every single one of the Villains in the story are way better then the Heroes. In fact I hate all the Heroes of the story, I wish all those smug bastards would just die. Randal Flagg from The Stand and Gunslinger books is another one, pure evil at it's best or worst as it is, but still, he's so much more likable then the Heroes, especially in The Stand, why couldn't he put one over on those Bible thumpers from Denver? And of course my beloved Erisi Dlarit from the X-Wing books. Got any Villains you want to just finish of the Heroes and win the day? The heroes weren't all "Bible thumpers" if I recall, they were just good people. I hated Randal Flagg throughout the whole book, but eh, everyone reads it differently I suppose.

I would love to see a storyline where Deathstroke faced off with Batman, and teamed with Bane to get the one up on him, even if it was merely a short-term victory to set up Nightwing helping Bruce out.
I'm a big Slade Wilson mark.

Darth Maul, or I would have at least liked to have seen him survive until "Revenge Of The Sith." I mean, why was Maul killed in "The Phantom Menace" yet Jar Jar Binks is in all of the Prequel movies!!!!?

Well, to be fair, Maul fought two guys at the same time, even though he was still rather inexperienced, while Jar Jar stayed out of action following the first film. All the same, I would of liked to see more Sith around, even throwaways.

Such sillyness. he keeps batman alive to toture him, thats far worse than killing him. He knows batmans way doesnt work and he takes joy in demonstrating this. Infact joker gets the ultimate win in comics in the dark knight returns, when he snaps his spine to stop bruce wayne frombeing able to kill him. It was the biggest FU he coulda done without infringing on cenas gimmick
