Kylo Ren is an intriguing character. I like that his powers are impressive in their own right, but he is not yet a master Sith Lord. His spasms of anger along with his apparent fear of the Great Leader and of succumbing to the Light Side of the Force give him some substance. Seeing him essentially praying to the mask of his grand father Darth Vader really showed him as young and insecure, and I like that. He's not just an all powerful, ruthless villain like the Emperor in the original trilogy, he's got some edges to him. I'm eager to see how he rebounds from his defeat to Rey and how his apparent rivalry with General Hawks(?) progresses. Last note, his image is totally badass.
So, Kylo Ren vs. Artanis... discuss with spoiler tags as necessary. My money's on Artanis, for obvious reasons.
