I've been thinking of doing a series of polls about people's favorite comic book supervillains, and I figured I'd start with none other than the Dark Knight's rogue's gallery. Which of Batman's foes are your favorite, in terms of how interesting the characters are, how good their storylines are, and overall just how captivating you find them to be? I tried to get most of the well-known ones listed here, but there is an "Other" option if needed.
Personally, I've always been a huge Two-Face fan; I even enjoyed Batman Forever (well...kinda) since at least it had Two-Face, albiet not the best characterization.

Honestly? Mr. Freeze, thanks to Arnold. I am not kidding at all, that might have been his most brilliant performance.

Hard to chose since Batman has probably the most rich and varied rogues gallery of any comic book hero. I like all of the options presented for different reasons.
If I had to chose one, the depth of Two-Face's character just edges out the Joker.

Two-Face is the best.

The Riddler has been my favorite ever since I was exposed to Frank Gorshin's amazing portrayal, and later on the TAS version, which was even better.

Joker, but partly because his insanity allows the different writers to portray him in so many ways. That, and he sometimes demonstrates that he knows that he is fictional and would not exist without Batman to fight with.

My favorite is The Scarecrow, but I do think that Two-Face is the best, just edging out The Joker and Mr. Freeze post-Diniverse.
I am also quite partial to Harley Quinn, but then, pretty much everyone in Batman's main rogues' gallery brings something to the table IMO.

Catwoman. She F's with Batman's head by using her sexual ways. Awesome.

I find Two Face to be the most interesting.

I think the Arkham Asylum video game really presented Scarecrow and The Riddler in awesome new lights, so they're both fresh in my head. I'll give it Scarecrow, based on the cut scene preceding your last encounter with him.

WHERE THE HELL IS CALENDAR MAN?!?!?!?  Alright, seriously, Mr. Freeze. But only after his TAS portrayal which was so awesome that the entire character's history was altered to match it. And...as much as I hate to admit it.....Ahnuld was pretty damn good in the role. (When he wasn't spouting puns, that is.) If he/the movie had been serious, Batman and Robin would've been one of his best roles. |

I like Harley, what can I say?
I mean, she used to be a psychologist and Joker twisted her all up. She went completely batso and I love her.
