I am a huge Dexter fan. I am particularly fascinated with how the actor Michael C. Hall plays 180 degrees away from the fey David Fisher character he played on Six Feet Under. As Dexter Morgan, Hall is a noble savage; virile, full of testosterone and, yes, dangerous. He excretes a quiet

One of my favorite villians is Ra's Al Ghul from Batman. He seems to be one of the more fleshed out villains. I love his back flash stories and how they reveal his motivations.his relationship with Batman is never Black and White. Mike Street wrote: I like well developed villains. I
