Line 83:
* The ''[[Percy Jackson]]'' series has Gabe Ugliano, who is the last husband you would want to have as a woman. Not only does he hit his own wife, but when she allegedly dies, he’d actually happy about it, because he gets the payout money from her life insurance. And yes, there’s the implication that he would eventually be accused of murdering her. And he also treats his son Percy Jackson much the same way. Thankfully, Percy’s mother eventually finds a much better husband.
* While it's a given that you're not supposed to like the IRA-offshoot with communist leanings in a Tom Clancy novel, Sean Miller from ''[[Patriot Games]]'' is far more vile than the rest of his comrades for the sheer cruelty and bigotry he displays through the book. Him choosing to cripple a prison guard who saved him from rape, his attempt to murder Jack Ryan's daughter and wife out of spite, and his racism while working with a black [[Western Terrorist]] will all make the reader loathe him as much as Jack does.
* Veruca Salt from ''[[Charlie and the Chocolate Factory]]'', and any and every adaptation. Quite possibly the [[Trope Codifier]] for the [[Spoiled Brat]] Trope, the only thing any fans find wrong with the comeuppance she receives is that they aren't able to actually witness it. While none of the children other than Charlie have any redeeming qualities, Veruca is the most vocal and blatant about hers, going so far as to have a [[Villain Song]] in [[Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory| the 1971 film to emphasize it.]]
