Harry Potter and Voldemort on Top Ten Heroes and Villains Lists

by

Harry Potter Half Blood Prince PosterEntertainment Weekly has published a top ten list of heroes as well as a top ten list of villains. The top ten was voted on by the readers of EW.com. Harry Potter ended up in 5th place in the top ten heroes list behind Superman, Batman, Buffy, and Indiana Jones. The first two and fourth one do not surprise me much, but really I never really think about Buffy when I think of fictional heroes, although I do agree she is a hero character. Behind Harry in the top ten list in order are Jack Bauer (sorry, but I never heard of this one), Han Solo, James Bond, Luke Skywalker, and John McClane (also never heard of this characer).

The top ten villains list includes the main villain from Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort. Voldemort comes in at number 3 on the top ten behind The Joker and Darth Vader. Interesting how the villain is higher than the hero, but then again I kind of find the other villains on the list not anywhere near as memorable as most of the heroes. Behind Voldemort in order are Maleficent, Benjamin Linus, Hannibal Lecter, Hans Gruber, Lex Luthor, Emperor Palpatine, and The Wicked Witch of the West.
