10. Marco Inaros

Marco Inaros is one of those characters you love to hate, landing him at number 10 on my list of top characters. He’s got this… magnetic charm that makes him super compelling to watch, even when he’s being the annoying troublemaker he is. Marco isn’t your typical bad guy; there’s a lot more to him than

how gorgeous his hair is

just being the villain of the story. He’s got layers and a kind of complexity that makes you think twice before just labeling him as the “bad guy.”

His character, brilliantly portrayed with a hot mix of incredibly dangerous charisma and ruthless determination, stands in stark contrast to the moral compass of the protagonists. As the leader of the Belter faction and a radical revolutionary, Inaros pursues a vision of Belter independence at any cost – even resorting to acts of terrorism that threaten the stability of the solar system. His charismatic leadership, paired with a willingness to sacrifice innocent lives for his cause, makes Marco Inaros a tricky adversary, adding a layer of moral issues to The Expanse‘s story. Inaros’s relentless pursuit of power and his willingness to manipulate others for his own gain make him a compelling and strong antagonist, embodying the darker shades of humanity’s struggle for survival in the vast expanse of space.

What’s cool about Marco’s character is how he shakes things up in the show. He’s not just causing chaos for the sake of it – there is a method to his madness. His actions and decisions really challenge the other characters and the viewers, making everyone question what they thought they knew about right and wrong. This isn’t a character you can easily dismiss or forget, even if he’s not the most likable guy in the series. Marco brings a different flavor to The Expanse, mixing things up and keeping everyone on their toes, which is why he’s earned his spot on the list, even if it’s not at the very top.
