There is no such thing as overkill,  simply open fire and reloading.   >:D

I want him to get killed quickly just because he's yet another smug, annoying villain in a series that has too many as it is.

Yeah, I prefer it when the villains are dangerously professional and not blatantly evil(Klaus Wulfenbach), or hilariously crazy(Tarvek's dad).

Is that definition of antivillain?

Look on the bright side, everything looks like it's coming up tweedle, which means it'll soon be the perfect time for everything to backfire all at once!

I just find him to be a thoroughly uninteresting antagonist and feel that he accomplishes nothing beside take time away from more interesting characters.

Honestly, the series suffers from having way more characters than it should already and the plot just drags.  I feel like without the timeskip, we'd probably still be on the same day.  I've been wavering for a while on whether or not I actually want to keep with the series- it's been far too long since I've actually found it exciting and interesting.

Aaaand it doesn't need tracks to run on, and it's self fueling. Why am I suddenly getting this vision of a locomotive crossed with a centipede?  :o

Wrong vision. Right one is Prairie Schooner 8)

If you're thinking logical, the Schooner is the way to go.

On the other hand, 'logical' is not a word I'd use to describe a lot of creations in this setting, especially those springing from Heterodyne minds. The centipede would not surprise me.

it would surprise me! the hetrodynes haven't shown much interest in insectiod designs, really.

now a large, multi-segmented cyborg bear, that would make sense.

(Sense in this case being under the badly skewed filter of about 50 kinds of insanity and two beers, but still)

well, not to mention the fact that I don't believe any self respecting spark would design something that mundane...
not that the Prarie Schooner isn't cool, just not quite appropriate  :))

now, the cyborg bear thing has a lot to recommend it- and think it's a case of 2 kindsa insanity and 50 beers ....
