The mad dog of Gilead, 'ol long, tall, and ugly himself, Roland. Though I have to give a shout out to 'ol Flagg as well.
This may sound strange but as much as I love Roland...its Mike Noonan.

Larry Underwood
Bob Gray
Flagg

Jack Torrance, the Shinning, just kinda identified with the guy, ya know?
The second would be Eddie Dean, from New York. just kinda identified with that one too.

I've always liked Annie Wilkes and Pennywise.

All that's left of what we were is what we have become.

Roland would have understood.
Henry Leyden. Father Callahan. Larry Underwood. Richie Tozier. Ben. The girl (who loved Tom Gordon). Susannah, Eddie and Roland (of course). Many others, too.

Mine by far is Jud from Pet Cemetary. Every book needs a character like him!

Trashcan Man. How can you not like Trashy?
Randall Flagg. Just for the evil fun of it.
Charlie Decker, of Rage. Too damn smart for his own good, but I like a good wily, crazy person.
