(Actually, the word he used was "mustache-twirling"!) His point, like yours, was that every villain feels justified in behaving as they do. Few villains are evil through and through - if they are, they tend to be rather boring. <BR/><BR/>Really great villains are attractive, seductive enough to tempt the hero or heroine to the dark side. <BR/><BR/>Wish I could write one like that!Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-67074809908007598102008-12-30T14:30:00.000-05:002008-12-30T14:30:00.000-05:00Great blog, Brynn.My favourite bad guy has to be L...Great blog, Brynn.<BR/><BR/>My favourite bad guy has to be Lex Luther - if Clark had just got out of that damn closet they could have had such a fantastic HEA together!Kim Darehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11086545242925686207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-39568903279091169282008-12-30T14:02:00.000-05:002008-12-30T14:02:00.000-05:00Great blog.
