The best villains are the “real” people: sympathetic, flawed, and believable. Ditto for the best heroes. Isn’t that just like real life?

In real life, the best villains are the ones swiftly defeated, ideally! :P

The only truly memorable villains are the ones who have a point of view, I think. They need to think of themselves as the hero.
