In any book, cartoon or film we all love to
see the heroes defeat the villains, save the
world, win the girl and live happily ever after.
But just between you and me, don't we feel a
little bit sorry for the villains as well?
Batman is the superhero protector of
Gotham City. After witnessing the murder of
his parents as a child, he swore to fight crime.
He does not have any superhuman powers,
but relies on his intelligence, athletic ability
and scientific knowledge. He wears a costume
that acts like armour. His cape can spread
out like wings which can be used to glide
down safely from heights. As a crime fighter,
Batman faces several enemies. His biggest
enemy is the Joker, a violent maniac with a
clown-like appearance.
The Joker, a master criminal, has chalk-
white skin, green hair and a permanent grin
stretched across his face. At one time he can
be mischievous and funny, but at other times
violent, brutal and cruel. He has no
superpowers, instead he is intelligent and
good at chemical engineering and weapon
design, which he uses to create
instruments of terror.
One of the most powerful
villains is Thanos. He is much
larger than the average human,
with powerful muscles, a broad
face and purple skin. He often wears
Life
a protective suit of armour, and a glove that
can harness power from infinity stones.
Thanos plans to use this power to erase half
of the human population. Due to this, he is
seen as an enemy by many, notably Iron Man
who teams up with other heroes, the Avengers,
to try to stop him.
Iron Man is identified by the armour he
wears, which he largely made for himself.
Though he has no superpowers, his armoured
suit gives him strength, makes him fly, and
shoots rays from the palms of his metal gloves.
He also has a device on his chest that helps
his damaged heart to beat well.
Once a good fairy, Maleficent suffered a
betrayal from King Stefan that turned her pure
heart to evil. To revenge, she placed a curse
upon the king's newborn daughter, Princess
Aurora, which she makes to only be broken by
the kiss of true love. Later on, Maleficent
developed a maternal love for the princess.
That love broke the curse when she kissed
Aurora on the forehead.
Whether heroes or villains, these are the
characters I admire the most. I love to watch
the heroes fight the villains and eventually see
good win over evil. I also can't help feeling for
the villains and their weaknesses; I just love to
hate them! These stories are timeless and the
characters are definitely larger than life.
