It's also nice to know a bit of the Count's backstory, at least with the EQ. Was he a bounty hunter for hire in the original story at any point? I haven't read the book, but from what I could tell from the Wikipedia page, no he wasn't. He was someone who was wrongfully imprisioned because three people screwed him over, and then when he got free 20 years later, he decided to get revenge on them, by disguising himself as a different person and doing all sorts of terrible things to the people. We'll have to see how well it all translates, since this is only a one episode character (as far as we know), but at the very least we have him and Baron Danglars (which is one of the three people who screwed him over), so it should be at least a fair adaptation.
