We are having a wonderful discussion of starship virtues, but there is still some unmined ore here..

Who is the worst villian?

My vote: Darth Vader, with Kahn as runner up

Now, we ARE talking about someone/something that has made a conscious decision to be evil, right? No entities that are just going about their business and get labeled "evil" by the protagonist/s of the Space Saga?

I gotta go with my man Scorpius from Farscape...slimy, mind invading half-breed creep that you just can't seem to kill.

I gotta give first runner up (and Miss Congenialty) to one of the originals, though: Ming The Merciless....that bastard!

Not sure if The Master from Dr. Who counts but, boy...talk about a dude that does not age gracefully...ever since his Roger Delgado incarnation (who was simply wicked for the sake of pure wickedness) it's been downhill ever since...

Best

I'm going to throw out The Mule from Asimovs Foundation series as one.

Hmmmm. Ok, you'll have to explain that one......

I remember it as the Immodium Q Space Modulator but Google disagrees.

Baron Vladimir Harkonnen from the Dune books.

I'm not sure if i've ever hated someone more than Tim Roth's Character in Rob Roy. Archibald Cunningham. I truly loved seeing him get hacked in half.

EDIT: I just realized this was supposed to be "Space Villians" . My vote will go for all of the Cylons on Battlestar Galactica. They pretty much wiped out the human race.
