Gargamel versus Dick Dastardly

Gargamel
In the fictional world of The Smurfs, Gargamel the sorcerer is the sworn enemy of the Smurfs and the main antagonist in the show and comic books. While described as a wizard in the narration, Gargamel is not depicted as possessing real magical powers to speak of. However, he is quite competent at creating magic potions for various usages and thus could be considered an alchemist, rather than a wizard, of much intrigue. His main goal in life is to destroy the Smurfs or to capture enough of them to create a potion to turn base matter into gold.

Dick Dastardly
He is a fictional character and antagonist who appeared in various animated seriesHanna-Barbera Productions. Dastardly's most famous appearances are main character in the series Wacky Races (his initial appearance) and its spin-off Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines. He is essentially a caricature of the English actor Terry-Thomas, and of Professor Fate, a comic villain played by Jack Lemmon in the film The Great Race.

  1. I'm aware that the smurfs have been around longer, but i personally love Dick dastardly a bit more, Gargamel is okay too but i fell in love with Dick after he appeared in the movie "Scoob" he had an endearing backstory and personality that made him the best part of an otherwise mediocre movie.

      If I may offer my humble opinion, but Gargamel has always been one of my favorites because he can be honorable at times while Dick Dastardly can be dishonorable all the time.
