The most heinous villains have disqualifying factors. In the show, there are two serial killers: one of them is Hal Cooper (aka the Black Hood) and the other one is the Gargoyle King. Hal has a Freudian Excuse, he seems to be a well-intentioned extremist, and he cares about his daughter to an extent. The Gargoyle King, on the other hand, might have a shot at qualifying, but since his respective season isn’t over, and there’s still a lot that haven’t been revealed about him, we’re keeping him off the category for now.

We also have Hiram Lodge (a crime lord who serves as the overall main antagonist of the series). While he’s committed numerous atrocities and was the one who initially hired the Gargoyle King, his storyline isn’t over, and he also seems to care about his daughter to an extent along with being genuinely grateful towards Archie for saving his life.

So again, while the show has a fair amount of villains who are exceptionally heinous and set the standards, they have disqualifying factors.
