This is a yes or no question by the way. Also, I'm only including cases where Word of God determines the character's status and was stated after or during the anticipation of the release of their latest appearance as of the moment.
But she qualifies as Affably Evil too, that also disqualifies. She is also an Anti-Villain.
Wait are you an admin? Please ask them.
@Accounty the Sequel thanks for clarifying that On & Off disqualifies someone from being a Hate Sink.
