We live in an age without heroes...
So it's pretty good going for arch-villains and the like. This week's topic is:
Nemeses
(Which I believe is the plural of nemesis)
Entries must be:
The evil version of anything (game characters, famous people, household appliances etc.)
100x100 pixels or less
No less than 20x20 pixels (I'm looking at you, skullkid22)
256 colours
Here's an example. Think Postman pat ... think evil Postman Pat:

It's as simple as that.
The second I read the theme all I could think of was "Damn you ice cream! Get into my mouth!"

haha evil that is hilarious.
I hope that an icecream enters and does the reverse.

Yes Ma'am! ;)
I present you the evil Roger Wilco with his mop of evilness, in evil EGA!

My apologies to Greg and Ian for defiling their character thusly.
I present you:

Bip! A raider chieftan, terrorizing the sands around the Oasis of a Thousand tears.
(It's actually more of a paintover than an original sprite, so I suppose it shouldn't count... Oh well, it was fun to make).
Hey! Great theme and nice entries so far! I already have an idea, so maybe tommorow I'll put something here. . .
Drawing inspiration from Caine's last entry, I present to you:
Guybrush Threepwood as...
Blackbrush the Pirate!

I thinkthe order of the animation is goofed up.
It's just an ordinary GIF -- it loops repeatedly. ;)
Meet GEIO, the evil finnish cell phone.

Guess what his 1337 hip IRC-nick is ;)
I keep hating to rain on everyones parades, especially all these really nice sprites, but in a sprite jam, you are to have no background.
Well, I think unless explicitly written in the rules, it's okay to have backgrounds, currently we don't define the word 'sprite' very clearly in this contest (and not going to) to allow more variations in the rules the host choosed.
Here's my entry: Evil Max (or good Max, depending on your opinion of the original Max).

Why the suit? Why indeed!
Oh god, khrismuc, that is just so hillarious! ;D
Can't stop laughing.
All the others are very nice too.
Damn you, Prog. Now I have no chance at all to win. :P

Ghost Pirate Elaine
Would've changed the lighting had I had the time.
Some things that might be misread:
I) The fire is meant to be her hair
II) She's supposed to be carrying a pistol with two huge barrels in her left hand.
:o Unbelievable Loominous... just great!
I really like it too, but could you also provide a X2 or X1 version? I really like it, but it's pretty blurred because of the scaling.
/me comes to the rescue.
I vote for loom..... Oh right, were not voting yet ;D
Ah, now that I can see it better I can love it better.
This has had some pretty good entries. If we can start voting right now (it IS the 24th of June, after all)... hmmm, between ProgZMax and Loominous it's a tough choice, but I'll vote Loominous. Prog has a lot of great detail, but Loominous' use of colour and the general visual effect of his Elaine is marvellous.
I hope no one feels I've disregarded their votes, it just took me a while to make up my mind. Sorry I didn't post sooner!
The decision has veen extraordinarily difficult, but the winner is:
Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, Ã, ProgZmax!

With loominous' entry as an extremely close second. I couldn't fault either Blackbrush or Ghost Pirate Elaine in terms of execution, and I was impressed with loominous' use of a style we rarely see in this contest. Ultimately though, I felt there was a stronger sense of character with Blackbrush, so congratulations to ProgZmax.
I was also concerned that Elaine's hair might not work too well in-game.
Thanks to all the entrants for making this decision so difficult for me!.
The host picks a winner. Voting is for background blitz.
Whoopsie.
