Naughty Boys Need Love Too THE
LADIES LOUNGE Being female myself, I find it hard to ignore the hard working ladies of cartoon crime. It's too easy for these chicks to get lost in the shadow of all of the bad guys, but bad girls deserve accolades too! Whether they truly deserve the status of Super Villains or just villains is debatable in some cases. However, they are just as evil and work just as hard towards chaos as their male counterparts. Know any evil dames you'd like to see highlighted? Email me and let me know!

Angelica, Rugrats Angelica is the cousin to main Rugrat Tommy Pickles. Her mother is a dominating business woman who knows what she wants and accepts no excuses for not getting it. She wants everything for her daughter as well, so Angelica has developed the nasty little selfish streak you see in such spoiled kids. But she's not just spoiled, she's evil. Sure, she's never pulled a heist, but I think at this stage in her life tricking Chucky into thinking swallowing a seed will cause his demise is evil enough for qualification. You've got to allow for her young age. I list her here for the same reason I listed Charles the Brainchild in the Hall of Fame. Age matters more than scope at this point. So Angelica's evil doesn't span much beyond throwing mud, but have your heard some of the lies this girl can spin? She's viscious! She's a Maleficent in the making. |

Queen Beryl, Sailor Moon Series I have to say, I'm not the expert in the Sailor Moon territory, I leave that to my former roommate, Katya the Reliable Source. But I do know that Queen Beryl was quite a thorn in the Sailor Scouts' sides for a long time. The best thing about this Super Villainess is the fact that she never really lifted a finger herself. She sent henchman after henchman to be vanquished by Mercury Bubbles or some other innocuous-seeming attack. In spite of her obviously lax employee training, it took the Scouts forever to actually defeat her. Kudos to her for her longevity, and kudos for her belief in the "disposable henchmen" school of villainry. |

Cross, Iczelion The sister of Chaos, Cross is one bad-a** lady. Tell ya what, go read the bio for Talpa in the Hall of Fame and you've pretty much got the same story here. Some ultimate universe-destroying evil, and 5 special armors (color coded, of course) that can prevent it from attaining its goals. I'm not as familiar with Iczelion as is Rogue, who introduced me to this show, but I can testify for the Super Villanry that seeps from this chick's pores. If you haven't heard of this anime, and you're into big-time boob shots in your action flicks, this is the one for you. However if you're like me and you think showing naked women every two minutes illustrates a culture's fairly disrespectful and demeaning perception of women, you might want to skip this one. |

Cruella Deville, 101 Dalmations Cruella wants only one thing in life: FUR. She doesn't care how, she just wants it. So there she is, sitting among her fabulous collection of mink and chinchilla accessories, and she thinks, "I know, I'll wear spots!" and plans to heist a bunch of dalmation puppies. Have you ever petted a dalmation? they have short, wiry hair not at all suited for clothing. Eh, what're ya gonna do? It made for a better story than "101 toy pomeranians". (Hey, I jest. Fur is BAD.) |

Harley Quinn, Batman series I know you're probably asking, "why her and not Catwoman or Poison Ivy?" and the answer is simple: no crisis of conscience. Catwoman is driven by her love of the environment and its effect on the great cats and other animals. She also dates the Dark Knight in moments of weakness. Poison Ivy also cares for the environment and her plant-driven conscience is her great weakness. Harley, on the other hand, has no conscience, and therefore no weakness other than her own ego and silliness. Sure, she is the Joker's henchwoman but at the same time she proves herself capable of planning and executing some truly vile schemes for no purpose other than the creation of chaos and personal gain. That's the heart of Super Villainry: personal gain without conscience, coupled with a sense of style and presentation. She learned it from a master and uses her skills admirably. Now you may say, "Why, that was a good description." Well I say to you "BAH!!!" You see, I knew there was somebody out there that could improve on my limited knowledge of Harley's complex background. And here to save the day is Loneheart!!! YAY!!!! Harley Quinn: - This poor girl. She was everything her mother and father could be proud of and the guy next door could fall in love with. But she was doing this internship as a psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum. One day thepolice (and the Batman) bring in this man. She sees them beating him half to death when he's cuffed and helpless... she thinks. It turns out he's The Joker. The other doctors hate him. She's only ever seen him as helpless and mistreated. She falls in love. Completely. It the first time. She can't help herself. The Joker escapes but he's brought back by the Batman in worse shape than ever. This time she snaps. She goes out to a costume store and one or two other places and comes back with the stuff she needs to spring the Joker. Which she does. Of course, like any man, he doesn't know how lucky he is and proceeds to wrap her around his little finger, make it perfectly clear to everyone that he's on top and doesn't need her help, treat her like dirt and generally ignore her feelings. It wasn't long before he got bored with her and arranged for her to wind up in a cell of her own at Arkham Asylum. When she did an old friend of her's asked her what it was like to give up her career, future, reputation and freedom for a man who didn't think she was worth spit. Harley looked at the flowers with a card from Joe Kerr and said: "It felt like a kiss." Thanks again Loneheart!! You can be my Harley Quinn any day! Wait...that didn't make any sense... |

Kanker Sisters, Ed Edd and Eddy These girls are like the cartoon versions of the kind of guests you see on Jerry Springer. The Kankers aren't part of the regular neighborhood pack which includes Kevin, Sarah, Rolf, Johnny and Plank. They live in a trailer outside of the main setting of the cartoon and only show up at times when the Eds are sure things can't get any worse. What I don't understand is why the Kankers refer to the Eds as their boyfriends. I mean, I know they're Springer-trailer-yellow-teeth-crankshaft girls, but really, they could do so much better! Oh, in fact Crankshaft No. 5 is the name of the purfume they squirted all over the Eds in the turkey baster episode. |

Maleficent, Sleeping Beauty My father told me that when he was a child during the original release of this film, he had to be dragged screaming from the theater when Maleficent showed up. Such is the evil of this character. When Princess Aurora was born, all but one of the magical fairy-types were invited to come pay respects to the new baby. The one who was snubbed, Maleficent, shows up and curses the child to punish her parents for their poor show of manners. Aurora is destined to prick her finger on a needle and die instantly. Hearing this, one of the good fairies partially blocks the curse and changes it from death to sleep. Maleficent then makes it her duty to make sure her profecy comes true. Talk about holding a grudge! Even today when you watch this movie you have to shudder in delight when she first appears. Her elegance, her beaury, and her cold hatred blend together into the most incredibly evil Super Villainess in history. When you put Queen Beryl and Maleficent next to each other you get wicked, wonderful, aesthetically pleasing bookends. And then throw Hexadecimal into the mix, what a trio! Maleficent was larger than life, elegant, and poison right down to the bone. Even transformed into a dragon her elegance shamed the rest of the characters. She's probably my favorite evil woman of all times because she is the animated embodiment of the old saying "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." Click the pic above for a great page all about Maleficent. Oh heck, and here's another one for you kiddes. It's even got info on fellow Halll-Of-Famer Rattigan. |

Miranda, As Told By Ginger Follow this link if you don't know anything about this show. Follow this link if you like any of the Klasky Csupo cartoons such as Wild Thornberries, Ahh! Real Monsters, Rocket Power, Rugrats, etc... Anyway, I'm going to lift Miranda's Bio straight from Klasky's page so be a good doobie and click the link through to their site when you're done here. "Miranda Killgallen was Courtney's right hand until Ginger came along. Protective of her place as Courtney’s best friend, Miranda is often vicious and cruel. Some kids suspect she has ice water running through her veins. Unable to mask her contempt of Ginger, Miranda rattles with hatred when "that Foutley girl" is around. Although Courtney enjoys Miranda's fierce loyalty, she often has to remind her that they are in the business of total and extreme popularity... not homicide. Miranda is likely to plot and execute all sorts of plans to destroy Ginger-- but in secret, so Courtney wouldn't know. Miranda whispers hideous things to Ginger under her breath, when no one is listening." |
