The truly villiainous part, is that he cares about nothing but his revenge. He begins using people as pawns and even wants to kill innocents along his path. In particular, the child of his lady love (who is innocent in his father's betrayal and mother's 'weakness') is who the Count befriends to get closer to his nemesis. Yet he plans to kill the kid as well.

While Edmond certainly deserves justice, its a tale of revenge taken too far. He becomes a monster even worse than the one he seeks to destroy.
