Possible post ...Tom - That's a great question. Possible post topic!<br /><br />Chakat - The more scientific-oriented villains definitely seem to be the most successful. <br /><br />Algeya - Perhaps it's the combination of both.<br /><br />Will - Interesting point about psychiatrists. Do you think that it has something to do with how psychiatrists are portrayed in Miller's "Dark Knight Returns?" That is to say, some are simply sympathetic to villains, believing them to be creations borne out of the very existence of Batman. Take Harley's origin in Batman TAS as an example of this--her training as a psychiatrist seemed to make her MORE susceptible to the will of the Joker.<br /><br />All - I had a discussion with a friend last night about this topic, who noted the emphasis in the study on engineers as opposed to scientists in general. He proposed that one reason for the extremism among engineers could be that scientists are taught to question, whereas engineers focus more on building. What do you think about this?ShadowBankerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18253883719460683589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-19260220539480547502010-01-13T18:04:56.474-05:002010-01-13T18:04:56.474-05:00I always found it interesting how many psychiatris...I always found it interesting how many psychiatrists/psychologists go bad in comic books. The Batman villains noted in the article are some, but also Moonstone, Doctor Faustus, one of the Green Goblins, and Harley Quinn (not mentioned in Batman list). It seems like that profession ends up with a fair number of villains and quite a few enter the villain profession without any "accident" driving them insane.<br /><br />I would agree with the others that mad genius villains are a common theme in comic books, so engineers would be a big fit. I guess given the changing world and the desire to build small explosives that fit in underwear or shoes, there is a reason why engineers might be overrepresented in terrorist groups. I would also guess, without any real knowledge, that the cultures in the middle east favor science over the liberal arts for education. Considering the primary work in the region (oil, construction, etc.), engineers might be a very common degree, so the prevalance of science of professionals and engineers in radical Islamist movements might mirror the prevalance in the societies where the radical Islamist movements stem.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05099666407440688569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-66556576956203671832010-01-13T17:05:34.251-05:002010-01-13T17:05:34.251-05:00pS.-

Also, some of them are scoring successes even when the heroes stop their plots, just demonstrating the working device/chemical/organism is proof of the creator's genius even if the application does not pan out.Chakat Firepawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02002352879959672258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856236869724526974.post-87958341620502521522010-01-13T12:33:26.585-05:002010-01-13T12:33:26.585-05:00Are you looking at villains independent of heroes?...Are you looking at villains independent of heroes?
