User blog comment:Heat-Gripper Archfiend/Theory of the Malevolent One/@comment-4202129-20131018035028

My theory of the Malevolent one is one of a few ideas: The first idea is that Mal is the true MIke like everyone else is saying and that the Mike that we know is an alternate personality himself, but took over so that Mal couldn't do anything else wrong. Two; maybe the other personalities are what make up Mal because if Mal is around, then Mike can't shift into his other personalities, so maybe Vito, Svetlana, Chester, and Manitoba are the make ups of Mal that couldn't stop the coming situation that was happening to them, that's why they were trying to take over his body in "Revenge of the Island." My last theory is that since Mike seems to be a positive person, his subconscious created Mal based on all of his negative feelings that he had bottled up over the years or even from a tramatic accident that happened to him as a kid that maybe Mal manifested himself in order to protect Mike, but eventually ended up liking the power and respect he got and became power hungry.
