1. The Penguin
Yes, that avian arch-nemesis of Batmans finds himself on the top perch of our list, receiving the big fat juicy fish of first place, number one on you get the idea. Removing Danny De Vitos grotesque savage in Tim Burtons
Batman Returns from your minds, the TV Series Penguin is an apparently honourable citizen who often uses a seemingly honest business venture to hide his nefarious criminal activities which everyone always falls for despite his having a terrible track record. They're a very gullible lot in Gotham. But what makes The Penguin the best over his cohorts in crime? Largely, the reason is because when the villains get together he seems to be in charge. For instance, in the 1966 movie that accompanied the series, the Penguin, the Joker, the Riddler and Catwoman join forces to hold the world to ransom and the brains behind the operation seems to the Penguin; their evil base is even Pengys submarine. Its a hard call to pick the best though as the series produced many entertaining villains originals or not - with the Penguin just winning out. Which makes a nice change from the dozens of times his plans are scuppered by the pesky 'Dynamic Dum-Dums'... Holy controversy, Bat-fan! Have I left out your favourite villain? Well, dont reach for that Bat-Phone just yet - why not tell us your thoughts in a comment below?
