* '''[[CompleteMonster Sebastian Shaw's Shaw]].''' While on the outside he's a [[FauxAffablyEvil suave old man offering kids chocolate]], on the inside lies a psychopathic warlord with the power to absorb energy. Bullets? Grenades? Rockets? You could shoot a million of those ''each'' at him, and all it would do is feed him. Hell, it'd probably even be enough to destroy an entire city.
** His intro perfectly displays just how creepy he is. When the camera shows the torture room in his office, you just know his true intentions are ''not'' good. No wonder Erik is so obsessed with revenge...

** His cold-blooded murder of Darwin that not even fellow mutants are safe from his wrath, should they defy him.

** Worse still is Erik's expression when he looks up at Moira after accidentally paralyzing Charles. He's blindly furious, cold stating, ''"You did this"'', before trying to strangle her with her own dog tags (you can hear her throat ''start to crack''). The only reason he stopped is because Charles wanted him to - he would have mercilessly killed a woman who had been his ally just minutes before over a mistake they shared.

* According to a deleted scene, the whole reason why Alex was even in solitary in the first place was because he'd had a "violent altercation" with two men in the prison showers. Now, keep in mind that by this point, Alex is only all of seventeen-nineteen years old. [[PrisonRape What other reason would those men have had for confronting him?]]

* The look of pure volcanic rage that crosses Erik's face when Charles tries to talk him down from massacring the Soviet and US sailors, insisting "They're [[JustFollowingOrders just following orders]]".
