  • And the loss of individuality of those converted is painful to contemplate.

  • Within the franchise, the Borg are almost unstoppable.

  • Their general lack of freewill means they can't really be reasoned with, and their adaptive technology and collective memory allows them to recover from damage quickly.

  • Furthermore, they rarely make the same mistake twice.

  • You are small and you think in small terms number eight homeland er, the boys.

  • You boys Okay, What if Superman was evil?

  • this question has been asked many times over the years, but few answers have been quite as interesting as Homeland er, raised from birth to be the perfect patriotic hero of America.

  • ER is incredibly cavalier with his powers, often causing the deaths of innocence or killing needlessly.

  • The ultimate contingency number five.

  • Arthur Mitchell, also known as the Trinity Killer Dexter as many people is Dexter Morgan, the serial killer protagonist of the series, has killed Arthur.

  • Trinity's likely someone who's gone his own solitary way through life, so preoccupied with his own obsessions that he's foregone all but the most rudimentary of human connections.

  • Tony Soprano, maybe the protagonist of the show that bears his family's name but that does not make him a hero.

  • He's your brother, Wester Rose's home to countless ugly and irredeemable characters.

  • But Ramsey is arguably the one we'd be most scared of meeting, which is really saying something.
