And because he's such a great dad, Vanessa gave him a basket full of recreational self destruct buttons for fathers day.
A thoughtful gift to a mad and self-described evil scientist.
I wish he was less oppressed
I got a platypus controlling me!
Literally Satan.
Among his greatest sins: trying to be a bro and let Adam and Eve know that they were naked in some perv's garden
Edit: come to think of it, it's not entirely accurate, as I don't think Satan ever claims to be evil. But there's a lot of anti-Satan propaganda in the Bible.
TV show Lucifer is a fun watch. The Devil gets tired of running Hell and decides to relocate to LA.
I love Lucifer. Every episode is exactly the same and it's amazing.
Tom Ellis made me question my sexuality.
The show is loosely based on a standalone Sandman spinoff comic that I think is quite good.

It would be so much of a better show if it wasn't such a copoganda. The writing is great, actors are great, but their insistence to suck cops dics and portray the police as this noble organization that is making the world the better place one brutalised civilian at a time is just tiring.

I think you would really enjoy reading paradise lost. OK, maybe you wouldn’t enjoy reading it because it’s written in late 15th century iambic pentameter, and the anachronistic vocabulary makes it a bit of a slog— but it’s an incredible (apocryphal, but what about Satan isn’t?) story about how Lucifer became Satan.
Just make sure to get an annotated copy so you can understand what the hell is going on.
Is it ever stated that the serpent is actually Satan?
Not explicitly. The book of Enoch (non-canon) claims it was Azazel, other sources claim Samael or even Lilith. Now if you want to take a completely secular view it’s important to note that Satan as we think of him now is a Christian concept and doesn’t exist in the Torah or in classical Judaism, but was simply a term meaning “accuser” or “tempter” that wasn’t a person or individual but more of a general concept of sin or temptation that prevented someone from doing the will of god
Satan is referred to as a serpent a couple times in the bible.
I haven't read the Hebrew version, so maybe that telling says it?

Megamind. Dude raised in prison and bullied his whole life, he just want attention from Metroman. Once he got the attention of Roxanne the act basically stopped.
He did more-or-less kill, and then steal the identity of, the museum guy. He's not a paragon of virtue, either.
Yeah, but he isn't evil that he likes to think he is. He kinda mess up the town once in a while while trying to get even with Metroman. Though there's no confirmed kill from him. Titan on the other hand is evil.

Character that insist is evil but clearly isn't: Crowley from Supernatural.
But I think that character that is actually evil but still charming is more interesting, and for that I bring forward Baal from Stargate.
RIP the actor that played Ba’al.
He was a disturbingly good looking man, damn.

Since my usual suspects are already mentioned, I'll go a little more esoteric - ProZD's "a villain who always does unintentionally helpful things" - https://youtu.be/GPUgjy-Pn-4
Professor Chaos
The Brian, otherwise Pinky wouldn't stay with him.
Well, he never says he's evil but is certainly seen as a villian: Dr. Victor van Doom. He's actually glimpsed all possible timelines of humanity and only the one where he reigns is not ending in destruction. https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-4d9668819558c73a8fda43cd4bc0ef0a-lq He is also loved by the people of the country he does rule. And when he had indeed managed to rule the world, it was a time of peace. I mean, mind control peace (he amplified the power of Kilgrave the Purple Man) but still.
If you're asking yourself why Kilgrave didn't simply control him, Doom is one of the few people with so much natural willpower that Kilgrave's powers don't work on him: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d5/e8/c8/d5e8c8ee71120993b8616128b08a6a22.jpg
Doom does a genocide every other month. There's something to be said for earnestly believing you're the good guy but you can say it about Hitler too.

Vegeta
He was pretty evil for a good while, then went back to evil again during ][v][ajin saga for a bit. He did a fair share of evil shit for a good while before he became a bro.
I Scream from Chikn Nuggit.
Claims to be the epitome of darkness; was exiled from Hell for falling in love with an Angel named Fwench Fwy.
Dr. Cortex is undoubtedly evil; but he MASSIVELY overexaggerates just how much of an evil genius he is. The worst thing he did (other than building a slave army from endangered native creatures) was shoot an emu one time. Most of the other bad things he did were more incompetence than malice

Elphaba from Wicked.
Melkior/Morgoth, they saw that Arda was a deeply flawed creation and attempted to correct it before existence was sung into being.
After the fact their actions are certainly viewed as evil by the world they tried to change but had the rest of the Vala joined his song the world simply would have been different, not worse.

I know hating on League is in vogue in some corners of the internet, but I really like Veigar. He claims to be the master of evil but hates that nobody takes him seriously because he's short and he takes umbrage with that. His voice lines are quite fun.
Imho League is an ok game with great lore and a terrible community.
The Warcraft narrator, he says he's an evil man but just wants to disco.
...Wait, I misheard that?
I like the world of warcraft version, too. https://youtu.be/LwqsUSqKzrw
