You could play around with the antagonism between Khan and Kirk. How about "Paradise Lost?" Khan was a superman, instead of a fallen angel, but it might be a start to generate some ideas. You also have his exile to Whatever-the-name-of-the-planet-was. Kirk thought it kinder than killing him, but the planet turned into a hell after that solar disturbance. There's also Khan's whole attitude of "better to rule in Hell than serve in heaven." He'd rather rule that hell planet than rot in some comfortable prison, or be "rehabilitated." Also, Khan pursues Kirk's destruction to the point of obsession. You could use the "tragic flaw" angle found in most tragic characters (MacBeth, Oedipus, etc.). Tell me if any of this helped get you thinking! ** vikki ** [log in to unmask]
