Which Emperor in Dune specifically? There have been more than a few you know.Simon H.Johansen wrote: 1. The Emperor, Dune.
Colin McIntyre, from the Imperium Trilogy. He's the man responsible for saving mankind from the 'tani and dealt them their only defeat. He also finally put down Anu's munity and rebuilt the Imperium from the ashes of the Civil War.

He's a weak ass old man because he fought a demon posessed primarch, (one of his sons) but couldn't bring himself to kill him until after he'd had the **** kicked out of him, Verry old, very very old.

True, but he was pretty ineffective as far as Emperors go. Granted, he was better than the other Emperors in the late Galactic Empire.Jadeite wrote:How can you people forget about Cleon I from the Foundation series? Im pretty sure hes the only Emperor in all of science fiction to be assasinated by a palace gardner.
