They cringe. They stare. They judge. “Are you sure?” they ask.
Yes, I’m sure. I love that character the best. I am a villain lover.
And because I am sure I’m not the only one who has been called to the defense of these fantastic (if not exactly ‘good’) characters, here are a few reasons villains are the best.

1.    It’s about the POV

Often, the villain is the hero of the story in his or her own point of view. We only see them in an antagonistic light because we are viewing the story from the hero’s point of view. Take Magneto for example, he is protecting mutant...

My favorite thing in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise is the villains. The turtles have both threatening and silly villains to constantly deal with. This list is about the antagonists that I like the most.

5. Baxter Stockman

Baxter Stockman is a scientist who often helps out Shredder. He was a sympathetic character in the original show, because he was a decent person who got tricked into doing bad things for Shredder. In other versions he's a mad scientist who's willing to be a antagonist to get what he wants. Either way Mr. Stockman is a interesting and entertaining character.
