I got him a write-up. Now another question I had was regarding one of the villains that you left on the list: Mister Hyde. When I spruced up/added entries, I thought about cutting him since the only crime he had listed made him sound more like a glorified bully, but he's actually done some downright disgusting things that make his almost-murder of Jarvis one of his less evil deeds. Atrocities of his include:

Trying to blow New York City sky-high, which would kill countless innocent people just for the sake of murdering his former partner in crime. Notably, his current employee Batroc the Leaper turned on him out of disgust due to this.

Kidnapping a homeless man and gruesomely murdering him, going as far as to carve his name on his flesh.

Spirited away homeless people as well as teenagers and put them through unethical experiments to replicate Spider-Man getting his powers.

However, he was disqualified on TV Tropes because of one Pet the Dog moment: in one story he took in a homeless drug addict, helped her kick the habit, and was upset when another villain killed her. Normally this wouldn't be up for discussion, but I'm only asking because not just here, but even at TV Tropes moments like these have been ignored for some comic book candidates (I'm assuming due to the nature of different writers working on one character over the years runs the risk of out of character moments like this), and Hyde is pretty much always written as a brutish bully at best and a morally depraved monster of a man at the worst with this one moment being the only (to my knowledge) redeeming moment he's ever had. Do you think he should stay, or were they right in cutting him?
