I have to be honest and say that he pisses me off too because well...He did do a lot of bad things after all. I mean, he's the sort of guy who, if I ever met in real-life, I'd kick him in the balls. And then promptly run very, very far away...xD;
But the thing that makes me really interested in his character is that his motive made sense. He was basically doing the same thing the heroes were (trying to overturn the Score) but Van believed that in order to truly do that, they'd have to go to a further extreme to do so. I mean, it takes a rare sort of antagonist to make "LETS KILL EVERYONE AND REPLACE THEM WITH CLONES! >:D" seem like a good plan and you gotta respect that.
And he has an INSANE amount of charisma and had the God-Generals and a large percentage of the Order on his side. And again, he made the "KILL EVERYONE" plan seem like a good idea to all those people.
...And then there's the fact that he's hot. That goes without saying. :3
