Megapoll of Mayhem II: Satanic Sixteen: Morgan le Fay vs Kodos

[Kat]

[NAF1138]

Morgan Le Fey is a villain who has stood the test of time and is still recognizable and relevant more than a thousand years after she was created.

Kodos has nothing on that.

Don't blame me...

...me neither. Genocide, FFS, people.

I'm pleased by how far Kodos has gone, a one off villain from 50+ years ago. I've got to vote for Morganna. She is a classic villain who still resonates 870 years later. (not 1000)

Her Celtic root is possibly even more ancient, as the war aspect of the 3 aspect Goddess The Morrígan.

Wikipedia disagrees with you on her age. I know it's Wikipedia, but it's a solid article.

Strange, she didn't really become a character until after Geoffrey of Monmouth mentioned her. I think any further age is the big "if". If she is either The Morrigan or a different more minor Celtic Goddess.

OK, I'm looking at the Wiki article, where do you see an over 1000 reference? I'm missing it.

They trace her origins to pre Christian celts in Wales, maybe a stretch but still.
