Ethical Villains

Heroes can be boring- let’s talk villains! Rik Hayashi joins us to talk about the villains who have a point, the ones we can sympathize with, or even sometimes agree with. What makes someone a villain? What are the lines between a villain and a hero who is willing to do anything for the cause? We talk Sinestro, Killmonger, and what happens when Ben Sisko goes for a walk in the Pale Moon Light. 
 
Riki Hayakshi is also a co-host on the Star Wars Universe Podcast, during our Clone Wars episodes. 

We’ve started the conversation. Now we want to hear from you!
