I've always had this idea for comic.

It's the year 2050 and people are getting bored with the reality TV. So scientists retrieve the greatest villians of history and put them all in house with no contact with the outside world. Every week a new celebrity from history comes. It would be called Evil Like Me It would be comedy with the villans doing various insane and stupid things. I don't who exactly the villains would be but Kim Jong Ill would most definitely be one.

What do you guys think?

You could put together in an isle all "statesmen" (Bush, Blair, Berlusconi, Moubarak, Sarkozi, what is left of Thatcher, what is left of Pinochet) all together in a reality show televised live. After all they all proclaimed to be friends, kisses, hugs - brrrr ... That would be the real utopia nowadays.

Sounds great ! ! Villains are SO much more interesting than heroes. But wouldn't you run out after awhile?? After all, aren't most villains prior to the 20th century somebody else's hero? Take Vlad Tepes for example. Great guy, impaled his victims, and sometimes sopped his bread in their blood. BUT he's a hero to some because he drove the Turks out of Wherever, and they thought that was cool. Napolean is a villain, but to the French he's a hero because he wanted to expand the French empire, and almost kicked butt on the Brits.
And so on .....

Aside from a problem of definition, it would be a HOOT ! !!

I have a script but I'm horrible at visual arts. If someone would be willing to do the drawings I would give a script for the first one. (Picking up Kim Joug Ill)

That is one very, very cool idea.
It reminds me of the cartoon Drawn Together, but about sixteen zillion times more awesome. (Drawn Together runs along the same lines put puts 'classic' animated characters together - a disney-looking princess, a depressed betty-boop-ish lady, a guy who looks a lot like Link from Zelda games, etc etc)
It was well loved! The idea and format are popular, survey says it will be a winner ;)
Go for it! Team up with someone from deviantart to illustrate and make sure you tell us the URL when you're started please :)

I'd be willing to do the art! However, I'm leaving for Holland on Wednesday and won't be back till the end of January. Check my DeviantART account to see how good I am: http://kbabz.deviantart.com

It's a holiday with my parents and sister. I'm going to create a topic in Random Discussion so that, whenever I find a computer, I can post what's been happening lately, and also to announce the event in the first place! I'll create it tomorrow. (BTW, it's Saturday right now where I live, so this may be read as Tuesday for some)

Villains

Elizabeth Bathory

She starved, mutilated and froze people to death for pleasure. Rumored to have bathed in blood of freshly killed virgins nightly.

Fidel Castro

Genius evil dictator who managed to survive for 60 years a meager 90 miles from an angry superpower. Paranoia is well-founded when people are trying to kill you with exploding cigars and LSD in the air vents.

Vlad The Impaler

Duh, Need I explain?

Hitler

Duh again

Papa "Doc" Duvalier

Tortured and killed citizens of his nation on a daily basis for Voodoo practices.

Kim Jong Ill

Wastes money on movies and nukes when his country starves and he's just plain freaky.

Augusto Pinochet

Self - Elected leader of Chile. Tortured and killed reds on a scale that would make Mccarthy swell with pride.

Pol Pot

Took over Cambodia in a bloody coup and attempted to wipe out intellectuals. Attempted to force all Cambodians back into the country, killing hundreds in the process.

Ivan The Terrible

Repressed Russia for 14 years. He killed his own son and married seven times, sometimes divorcing less then a week later.

Stalin

Abused Russia and started a reign of terror that lasted decades. He actually had the first person who stopped clapping for him to be shot, it got so bad he had to ring a bell when he wanted slience.

Tipper Gore and Gilles de Rais would slaughter them all, then blame it on Jesus or poor camera angle.
