Sauron was a pretty evil....thing Basically, he's the LotR version of a fallen angel. I raise you guys Morgoth from The Silmarillion of who Sauron was a mere lackey. Morgoth is the one who corrupted Sauron. |

- The Joker. Look no further than what he did during the whole No Man's Land arc for proof.
- The Red Skull. He's so damned evil, that other villains have issues having to work with him.

AM, from I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream
That is, by far, the most disturbing entity I have ever experienced in fiction. He's an AI that pretty much took over the world, killed all of humanity save for a small group, and has kept them alive for more than a hundred years solely so he can watch them suffer in all sorts of ways it can come up with, all because he hates his existence. I love Harlan Ellison as a writer, but that is the most disturbed I have ever been after reading a short story.
Sauron, Smith, Joker, Hannibal Lector, all manner of horror movie villains, honestly, nothing really compares to AM for me.

Eric Cartman. Kid manipulated another kid into getting his parents killed, stole their bodies, chopped them up and put them into chili and then fed that chili to said kid. He also plotted to exterminate the Jewish race. And he's only a kid. Who knows how evil he'll become? |

Randal mother F'ING Flagging from the Stephen King universe Randal Flagg was my choice as well. King's best character, better than Roland even. I still think a bio of Flagg would make a great book, but I get part of Flagg's deal is his mystique. |

He did, but Sauron had more ambition than Morgoth, and rather than merely destroy, he wanted to control. I suppose it's up to you which you deem more reprehensible: to be a tyrant, or to utterly destroy things merely to satisfy spite. |

Patrick Bateman from "American Psycho," the book in particular. I honestly can't think of anyone that comes even close. A serial killer who rapes, tortures, dismembers, and murders his victims, and then sometimes eats and rapes their corpses. He kills men, women, and animals with no remorse, women because he gets a sense of sadistic pleasure out of it, and men because they annoy him. ...if it is not all in his head. If not, then he is a good candidate. I would to nominate him if it weren't for that ambiguity. |

I am not sure how familiar anyone is with the graphic novel "The Preacher". But Jesse Custer's sadistic grandmother and Jody were the epitome of absolute evil too. Good one... I forgot about them until now. |

I suppose it's up to you which you deem more reprehensible: to be a tyrant, or to utterly destroy things merely to satisfy spite. I hate to argue(I mean it in a friendly way), but I am currently reading the book. It states that Melkor hated the Ainur(Which he was one of) and wanted to control them instead of destroying them. He did destroy their creations as much as he could though. Sauron was a Maiar and couldn`t control the Ainur. So, he sought to control the creations instead. In a way, you can be correct. It is all about perspective and what each of them had the ability to control. Sauron`s story is just a little more detailed in his direct evil to persons. Sauron also did do a better job at decieving others than Morgoth did. Sauron hid his evil as much as he could. I am enjoying Silmarillion, btw. Harder read than LOTR or The Hobbit, but I love the stories. A lot of the stories could be made into seperate movies. *sigh* Expensive budgets will probably prevent that from ever happening. |

Gus Fring from Breaking Bad or The Governor from The Walking Dead would get my vote.
I'm surprised considering the love for The Lion King on this board the lack, if not total absence of votes for Scar.

Ultimately, Scar killed his brother to take the thrown and scared his nephew into exile for a few years. While that's bad, when compared to the ultimate evil acts by fictional characters, it's not that high up there. I'd say he's not even the most evil Disney character, I'd put that title on Frollo. |

Johan Liebert from Monster.
They explicitly parallel him to the Anti-Christ.
The doctor who once saved his life as a child has to track him down because he feels guilty for having inadvertently allowed such evil to live.

 Oh, another one: The Idea of Evil from Berserk. A being created from humanity's negative emotions, whose purpose is to provide humanity with a reason for its suffering. |

John Hammond in the novel "Jurassic Park." Cared only about his park and his dinosaurs, and stubbornly refused to admit that anything was wrong and that people were in danger. He blames everyone for the collapse of the park, even his own grandkids! ;D And don't forget Dodgson in "The Lost World." He went so far as to twice attempt to murder Harding just to get his hands on what he wanted. |

Well, I didn't bring him up, because the title maker said no satan, he's their version of it, so you know, that whole thing there. |

Luca Blight. the guy murders his own country's boyscout brigade so that he can continue a pointless war and kill people. he treats his subordinates more disposably than Darth Vader. he forces people to humiliatethemselves in exchange for sparing their lives, and then he kills them anyway. he practically loses his load over the thought of killing a defenseless little girl and laughs at her when he kills the man (more of a boy actually) who was defending her. he hates his own sister for having the gall to look like his dead mother, and he kills his own father out of misguided "revenge" for something that wasn't even his fault. he goes through the whole game with a big crazy smile on his face and when you finally kill the bastard he goes out laughing about how even if you did kill him he's already killed thousands of people personally, let alone what his armies did.

Working my way through the Game of Thrones series. Joffrey Baratheon is a pretty evil little bugger. His Mom isn't that great either. they still have noothing on Ramsay Snow and Gregor Clegane, though. |
