Escaping, Essex traveled the world, continuing his experiments and leaving carnage is his wake, Jack the Ripper being one of his creations. He also got aguinded with Dr. Mangele, whom he considered disapointment who lacked vision. In present Sinister monitors Jean Brey and Scott Summers, having done it their entire lives, seeing them as key to his goal to control evolution. Taking their teammate Morph after they seemingly die, Sinister experimented on them until they became his crazy servant, implating them with bug that created Split personality to better control them.

As '97 prequel comic show, Sinister recruited the Marauders, group of mutants led by Sabretooth, having them battle X Men and endager civilians to sour public opinion on mutants since peace to couterproductive for his plans, eventually trying to have entire town destroyed to frame X Men. Fast forward to show itself, Sinister joins Bastion as his personal MadScientist. Kidnapping Bolivar Trask, Sinister uses his DNA to gain access to Sentinel technology, which he uses to create new Master Mold and send him to island nation of Genosha, which has become become safe heaven for mutants, for real this time. Massacre that follows is nightmare, several named characters, one of them child, die on screen and Gambit if forced to sacrifice himself to stop it.

Sinister has jumped from "over century of nasty, but quite enough experiments leading to things like Jack the Ripper and life draining pterodactyl man, personal villiany and being onboard with destruction of time itself" to that and trying to destroy whole town to destroy solidarity between humans and mutants, organising attempted slaugther of whole nation, while being kay player in plot nearly exterminate of mutants and enslave humanity with all death it entails, so he could have surviving mutants as his lab rats. Plus some more nasty touches given to his experiments.

Following Genosha and being captured by Bastion, Magneto goes of the deep end and unleashes EMP wave across the world, shuting down all technology and killing thousands while threatening to destroy the world. X Men split up to both save the world and deal with Bastion and Sinister, hopefully before they bring back electricity and Prime Sentinels came back on. During the battle, Sinister faces Summers family and reveals he put mind control Crystal in Nathan, turning his his future version Cable on them. Jean however is able to awaken Phoenix andextract mutant DNA Sinister stole from him, reducing him to corpse like old man who runs away crying when Morph shows him how he looks.

That being said, he mostly follows Apocalypse's lead in that while he dosen't truly do much different from his co conspirators aside from being aware of true goal. Nasty, but censors of time prevent his experiments from going the mile it is needed to make it in world where good number of baddies gun for genocide or in case of few, destruction of world or universe, while in destroy the time plot he mainly stands out from others by baing actually aware of end goal.

Sinister has jumped from "over century of nasty, but quite enough experiments leading to things like Jack the Ripper and life draining, mind raping pterodactyl man, personal villiany and being onboard with destruction of time itself" to that and trying to destroy whole town to destroy solidarity between humans and mutants, organising attempted slaugther of whole nation, while being kay player in plot nearly exterminate of mutants and enslave humanity so he could have surviving mutants as his lab rats. Plus some more nasty touches given to his experiments.

He sends Morph to divide and attempt to kill their friends (except Scott and Jean, whom he has lured into trap to be captured by his Nasty Boys) and has Proffesor X and Magneto stranded in Savage Land, where he recruited mutates Magneto has created and took over, imprisoning everybody who stands against him while using his technology to Shut down powers of any mutant not in his service. However Morph turns against Sinister and ruins his attempt to take DNA from Scott and Jean. Eventually he has Morph, Jean, Charles and Evil captured in Savage Land and uses his creation Sauron, to lure rest of X Men. Sinister plots to painfully drain them or their powers and use it to enchange mutants for coming war with humanity so their could win with him as their ruler, potentially killing his captives. Cyclops however uses his rais to reduce Sinister to pieces before Jean scatters them, temporarily stoping him.

First of all his minions, he dosen't care for them, they are his servants and he isn't as horrible to them as in comics, but all his compliments are simply his Faux Affability with no true care. 97' prelude comic flat out has him alomorfom kill them after they fail him. His alliance against Phalanax is pure Enemy Mine Evil Versus Evil with no true moral problem, given he is fresh from assisting in even worse plot. His care for his creations beyond feeding his ego and need for control is non existent.

X Men The Animated Series and it sequel X Men 97' are duo of great superhero cartoons staring titular team as they fight for rights of mutants while facing human racists, evil mutants, racist robots, aliens and all in between.

Original show already gave us eight keepers and some of them looks like they will eventually warant expansion, however first season of 97' also gave big push in heinousness to one of original show's most promient villains.

With 97's however, he gets huge jump in evil, especially with his tenure under Bastion. Massacre of Genosha is easily one of worst single instances of mass murder in continuity, with Trask making it clear that both that and rest of Bastion's plan are only possible because of his alliance with Sinister.

True thing to adress is his wife. Nathaniel's developing obsession was partly started by desire to cure her illnes. However even then narration makes clear that his obsession and desire to prove nay sayers wrong has slowly won out, even his pleas to come with her being filtered through his egoistical vision. While he does act tender towards her during confortation and even seems geniunelly saddened as he tries to call her back to him before running off, he still abaddons her and eventually completely shedds his old identity.

As I am sure we all know, Heinous standard of X Men animated series is gigantic. Apocalypse attempts world wide genocide of mutants and humans alike in almost all his apperances and eventually graduates to destroying time itself, Graydon Creed founded Friends of Humanity and is ready to have thousands of humans infected with nasty plagues to whip humans into genocidal frenzy against mutants, Omega Red and Cortez almost cause nuclear Apocalypse.

[[folder: Omega Men]]

Omega Men is obscure DC superhero team composed from aliens from Vega star system who fight against tyranny of the Citadel. They debuted in pages of Green Lantern and guest stared in New Teen Titans before getting their own series, which started in pre crisis before transitioning to and finishing in post crisis continuity.

Original Omega Men comic was dark, pretty much DC equivalent of Strikeforce: Morituri. It started with Omega Men waging war against Citadel, only to shift into other plots. It also introduced Lobo, though as member of completely different race with different backstory and somehow less over the top attitude than he will become known for.

Who is Harry Hokum? What has he done?

Intelligent and ambitious earthling, Harry somehow found his way to Vega system and offered his service to the Citadel, which is in proces of trying to break force-field protecting Euphorix, home of of Omega Men leader Primus and his wife (and Euphorix's Queen) Kalista as well as only Vegan planet not conquered by them. Using Greeshagurt, Alien creature which absorbs energy and thougts of it's victims and reduces them to formless bloobs, Harry captures Euphorixian who was not on planet when field was set up, using information he got to create false images of Cidatel attacking planet's cities. Luring Kalista into trap, Harry has her thrown to Grees so Citadel could learn how to get throught field and reduce Euphorix to lifeless rock.

After plan fails, Harry and Supreme Commander of the Citadel came back to Citadel homeworld to find super computer which actually ran empire destroyed as pretty much entire systerm rebels. Using dimwitted Supreme Commander as his Puppet King, Harry leads the Citadel to take back control of Vega. He makes alliances with planetary rulers, normally resulting in many executions of dessidents, threatens destruction ot the worlds to force them to fall in line and if they don't, unleashes nuclear weapons on them, even Euphorix is attacked since field was shut down.

He kidnaps group of Omega Men to use them as hostages in negotiations. However, after Supreme Commander is killed on Citadel's prison planet in confortation with Omega Men and Lobo, Harry uses bluff of having nukes ready to destroy cities in case of his deaths to negotiate peace treaty, planning rebuild his power base and strike again. Peace summit was held on prison planet, renamed New Alliance, as one of terms was that world can chose which side to join. Harry however is able to persuade good number of worlds to his side.

After that Harry gets lot less focus, mostly watching what Omega Men are doing, eventually trying to get Alonzo Dulak, scientist who created force-field, to his side after Kalista accidentally banishes him from Euphorix. When that fails Harry tries to use him as scapegoat in plot to assasinate Kalista. When Spider Guild, great empire of aracnid aliens who use inhabitants of world they conquer as food,

What is the work?

After that Harry gets lot less focus, mostly watching what Omega Men are doing, eventually trying to get Alonzo Dulak, scientist who created force-field, to his side after Kalista accidentally banishes him from Euphorix. When that fails Harry tries to use him as scapegoat in plot to assasinate Kalista. When Spider Guild, great empire of aracnid aliens who use inhabitants of world they conquer as food, invades Vega system, Harry calls all his troops to protect New Alliance where he has ran off, leaving all other worlds under his rule and allies to their fate.

Calling Omega Men to offer them aliance against Spider Guild, when he learns most of them have dissapeared, he imprisons ones who came and plans to send them to spiders. He blackmails their member Zirral into sleeping with him in echange for others freedom, before having them all sent to spiders, as well as his minion who didn't restrain them fast enough. Harry is last seen on New Alliance, still ruling what is left of the New Citadel as he learns his prisoners have escaped in big wave in which Omega Men call people across system to join them in hidden colony far from oppression and war.

While this version of Harry dosen't appears outside of series, his Citadel principates in Dominator plot to conquer Earth during Invasion event. Citadel takes job of running space prison (read: concentration camp) in which Dominators put humans they capture. Citadel fleet also attack Thanagar in two Green Lantern Corps issues, attempting to bombard the planet.

Reddeming qualities?

No.

Heinous standard?

Okay as I already said this comic is dark. We have original incarnation of the Citadel, which waged bloody war of conquest across Vega and whose commanders were fond of eating their enemies, made pact with Gordian slavers to help them use newborn Changralyns as slaves in their radioctive mines, answering to Omegas standing against it by destroying Changralyn city and have terorised and tyranised system for centuries, all presided by their creator (Mir's candidate). We have Psions, race of mad scientists who extreminated Lobo's race, have kind X'Hal consistently raped by violent Bronx until she gave birth and use catastrophes in Vega to capture new test subjects to dissect.

X'Hal herself and her son Auron are godlike beings who went insane and tried to destroy whole system. Spider Guild from last third plunders universe and turn inhabitants of worlds they conquer into their food. Primus himself, normally noble hero, spends one issue throwing asteroids at Euphorix's force-field and potentially endagering people on planet because he didn't take him and Kalista being separated after she decided to lift field up for good well. It's nasty.

Harry however, I think stacks up well. He debuts with nasty scheme to deliver Euphorix to the Cidatel so they could completely destroy it and after the Citadel is thrown into dissaray, leads it's forces on nasty campaing to estabilish it's dominion over Vega and estabilishes new empire which would join Alien Alliance and attack Thanagar, single handedly being responsible for keeping evil of the Citadel alive. Plus nasty bits like leaving all but his base planet to be eaten by Spider Guild, rapes Zirral by coercion only to have have her and her friends thrown to spiders as food. All while not being god like X'Hal and her son and ruling much smaler and weaker empire than Spider Guild.

Not bad for guy who even in universe literaly came out of nowhere.

Conclusion?

Keeper.

As I am sure we all know, Heinous standard of X Men animated series is gigantic. Even ignoring eight we arleady have up, Magneto almost starts nuclear war in his debut and when he briefly goes evil again in 97's almost destroys the world, king Arkon plunders neighboring planet for slaves and opens his two parter by almost destroyng New York, and of course Bastion who, alongside everything I mentioned above, tries to crash Meteor into Earth and cause extinction level event, to name a few.

He sends Morph to divide and attempt to kill their friends (except Scott and Jean, whom he has lured into trap to be captured by his Nasty Boys) and has Proffesor X and Magneto stranded in Savage Land, where he recruited mutates Magneto has created and took over, imprisoning everybody who stands against him while using his technology to Shut down powers of any mutant not in his service. However Morph turns against Sinister and ruins his attempt to take DNA from Scott and Jean.

What truly makes it for me is his team up with Apocalypse. Sinister is fully onboard with plan to destroy and openly erase all space and time, which would include his wife, for shot to continue playing god in the new world. If there is any dount that Nathaniel Essex is death and only Sinister remains, that squashes it.

In original series, Sinister's crimes consisted of over century of nasty experiments on mutants and, while James's story making it clear he left coloteral damage, is mostly personal threat with vague goals of creating his new race. Plus him joining Apocalypse in his quest to destroy time itself.

With 97's however, he gets huge jump with his tenure under Bastion. Massacre of Genosha is one of worst single instances of mass murder in continuity, with Trask making it clear that both that and rest of Bastion's plan are only possible because of his alliance with Sinister.
