2nded. The man pisses excellence, and just kicks your ass.

You have to hurray Mr Dallas, we only have 12 minutes left, what are you going to do?

I dunno, Ill call you after 12 minutes is up

3rded.

No, really. Maybe even the best character out of these three when it comes to actual character development. Maybe tied with Paul Atreides from Dune... I dunno.

Close second though.

I don't know if Sharpe (mostly the books TBH ) count as it's based on the Napoleanic Wars.

Sean Bean is a badass. If somehow Corbin Dallas dies from an alien STD, Id agree on the Bean!

Kinda surprised no-one put this up already...

Fantasy novels:
Hero: Tyrion Lannister. (Close second from the same series is the Hound, but whether he's a hero is debatable of course)
Villain:
The Rat King from The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents (it just freaked me out, okay?)

Sci Fi Live Action:
Hero: The Doctor (I heartily enjoy me some whimsical pacifistic arrogant lunatics)
Villain:
Aliens seem like the best bet.

I found it harder to think of villains, anyone else find that to be the case?

Favorite video game villain: The Flood.

"I swallowed a bug."

Too obvious?

Whichever character kills Jar-jar Binks in a future Star Wars film, novel or comic will hold the title of greatest sci-fi character ever.

Fantasy - Conan the Cimmerian.

in no particular order, or genre:

Conan
Thor (comic book, not 60s-70s tv show)
The Brothers Karmazov
V from V for Vendetta
Tyler Durden
Duncan/ Connor McCloud (spelling not sure on)
Kratos
Gabriel Belmont (of the newest Castlevania variety)
Rico (of the Starship Troopers BOOK variety)

Plus I have a new entry

Eliphas

From sci-fi literature, Joshua "Lagrange" Calvert. He's a world-class douche and a borderline pedo, but he also saved the whole damned Universe, and without having to sacrifice himself, because that's just too emo.
