...1. Adam Worth 2. John Watson 3. Sebastian Moran 4. James Moriarty This villain in literature was ranked #46 (website "The Telegraph"), #5 (website ShortList.com), and #10 (website CSMonitor.com). From Doyle's "The Final Problem": "He [Moriarty] is the Napoleon of crime, Watson. He is the organizer of half that is evil and nearly all that is undetected in this great city. He is a genius, a philosopher, an abstract thinker. He has a brain of the first order."
