Who is everyone's favorite BB villain and why is he/she your favorite. Mine would have to be Mad Stan he's crazy and funny.

Considering the fact that the vast majority of BB villains weren't developed enough, I'd say the best one would be Mad Stan (Berkowitz...hehehe). Batman Beyond found a character that takes that "crazy motive and no/not much development" thing and makes it work somehow!

But my favorite villains in Batman Beyond have to be Blight and Shriek. They have something personal with Terry to taunt them into furthering their anger and madness.

Hey:

I think that my favorite Batman Beyond villains would have to be Blight, Spellbinder, Shriek, and Inque. The reason why is because they all have something against Batman, and it makes them come back for revenge, that's what makes my favorite villains on the show so cool.:)

Definitely Mad Stan :D .
Mad Stan is crazy, unpredictable, and hilarious. Mad Stan made "Rats" bearable for me. He also made that Zeta-Ro episode (whose name I can't remember) much more interesting. Especially his dog.

As for the 'normal' villains, Shriek. That's just because I loved both "Shriek" and "Babel." That sound wave stuff is really intriguing........ (especially after I just took my Physics AP....... hmm....)

Yup. Those are my votes: Stan & Shriek.

No doubt - Mad Stan!!!!

But as far as "normal" villians, I'd go with Inque (she's had some of the better development on the show, and of course I'm a sucker for a shape changer) and that freaky guy from "Earth Mover" (the whole thing had a sort of Day of the Dead feel to it, and ended on a somber note, which I liked).

My favorite BB villain would also be Inque...but I think Shriek would second in nomination for the title.
Why thoses two? ..hmm..I think Inque while she is so damn cool and a great match for Terry, plus her fights always kick some butt and her animation is really great!
Shriek because he really hates Batman and is willing to do anything to get revenge.

PS :Hey Inque...*g* where are you? I thought you would be the first to answer this question...even though we all know who YOU like the best!! :D

I hate to admit it only because you-all-know-who will say it is THEIR favorite villian! (wonder who that could be? http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/otn/ez/pi_question_mark.gif Hmmmm?)...but my vote goes to

INQUE!

Yes, Inque was my personal favorite. http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/otn/funny/jump3.gif I liked many of Batman Beyond's villians, and I know certain ones were based on existing villians, but Inque was the first new villian that was quite intriguing and striking at the same time.

Inque, because she's one of the two villains the BB writers bothered developping a little bit... the other would be Blight, but he vanished way too quickly!

My top favorites are Blight (always the best), Shriek, Inque, and -- of course -- Mad Stan! The rest seemed almost interchangable.

I pretty much liked them all. Batman Beyond villains had more practical motives for being evil. For the most part, they were out for money, instead of global domination like the bad guys of most other Super Hero shows.

--Blight and Inque, because they were the most psychologically well-developed.
I'll take P.K.'s point a step further. Basic reasons for villainy, as I see it, are
(a) the profit motive (cf. Inque or the Royal Flushers).
(b) vengeance/passion/obsession (cf. Willie Watt, Shriek, or Stalker--or, to get a bit old-school, Mad Hatter, Poison Ivy, or Two-Face).
(c) pure and simple psychosis, like The Joker ("His reasons make sense to him and him alone", Batman said of him in "Laughing Fish") or, to a lesser degree, Mad Stan.

Actually...

This is exacty why I DON'T like most of BB's villains. They really lack pure, evil ambition.

My fav villain is Shriek. I'm a big sound person :p . I love the fight scene in the first episode where Shriek turned off all the sound, except the footsteps, very cool. And then there's Babel, well that's just my favorite ep. SHriek just seems to bring out the best in Terry.

2nd fav's gotta go to Blight.

I love Mad Stan, but for some reason, I don't see him as a real "villain." I dunno why.

Mine are Shriek, because he was well developed, and Mad Stan because he was nuts and funny at it.

Inque

INQUE!!

i think you all know why. i also have a thing for shapechangers and i just think she's totally HOT! anyway to explain fish, i've been rather busy and now my sister's are home from college so i rarely get a chance to get on the computer to the boards.

Blight
05-19-2001, 09:55 AM

Fave villain for me? Probably Mad Stan....mainly because he's a nutcase, and I get a kick just hearing him rant. As nutty as he is, he gave Terry a tough time in the library fight in "Rats". Another villain I like is Spellbinder, mainly because he isn't just another one of those "beat the daylights out of you villains"....he'd rather use your own senses against you in some intricate plot, like in "Eyewitness". Just my dumb opinions, of course....:D

She is the only worthy female villain in Batman Beyond who is worth mentioning :D .

:cool: Got to say Royal Flush Gang as my fav :cool: I love villain teams. Question, did they ever REALLY appear before BB?

Another fav villain would have to be Spellbinder. Very Scare Crowish, and I like it. All mental stuff.

Blight, on the other hand, is just cool and plain evil. A glowing skeleton, what's cooler? Blight vs. Ghost Rider, that'd LOOK interesting.

Another fav "villain" I have is Willie Watt. I actually felt for the poor nerd in his first ep. :confused: No. I just found him interesting. One of those grey characters.

:D Lastly :D I'd have to say my other fav would be Curare. Eps of her are cool and how many people did she kill in her episodes? :o

Sure! I really liked just about all the villians in Batman Beyond. I really can't think of any I didn't like at this time. All the ones you mentioned, Rampage, I really enjoyed too. And I think Mr Freeze was awesome in his episode too.

The only "villians" I hate are the Jokerz. They are the most annoying people in the world!

Frozen

Hello!

Well, call me old school, but it was damn good to see Mr Freeze in BB. "Sub-zero" still one of my fave films, so I loved seeing him again...

Thanks for listening!

:D

The main reason I said Mad Stan was my favorite villain is because he was a little more developed than say Inque and Blight. They were only in about two or three episodes. I think they made too many villains.:) PS Every one I know who watches BB likes Inque?!

I would like to see Inque in the "real" universe in Batman. That would be awesome. She deserves to cross over there every bit as much as Harley Quinn did.http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/otn/happy/icon13.gif

It's not a crime to dislike Mad Stan! It's commendable! Quite a few BB villains are only shoot em up blow em up with no, or few, actuall motives. But Mad Stan was able to take that formula that usually makes a villain into a loser Bat-fans won't like, and made it work! Blow it up!
