Hannibal.

Even though Dexter hasn't been caught yet, he makes sloppy mistakes, has left himself open on many occasions, has family to worry about and has an identity to keep intact. He has been lucky because his victims
besides his brother imo
are usually not very smart and even those victims has made Dexter run in circles to keep his identity. Hannibal on the other hand is a fugitive, has nothing to lose and can outsmart Dexter. Assuming he already know who Dexter is and does, he already has him in check with a huge handicap since Dexters needs his alias as a blood splatter analyst to stay hidden from public view.

Dexter gets big points for actually working for the guys that are trying to catch him. Really ballsy and impressive.

Still have to go with Mr. Lecter though. Dude is just 100% creepy all the time, unlike Dexter who seems to have a bit of a soft side to him.

Why would they fight? They would most probably work together out of mutual respect.

No, they have almost opposite philosophies. Dexter would see Lector as one of the dregs of societies that needs to be cleaned up.

Better watch "Silence of the Lambs" again. They are pretty much alike. Dexter just has to let go.

According to the "Intarwebs", Dexter killed about 70+ people... far more than the 29ish Lecter. Dexter would win IMO, but Lecter is much more outwardly sadistic.

Alright, I've watched the series over and this is what I've gotten.

Dexter killed 11 in Season 1 and 9 in Seasons 2 & 3. (Including flashbacks)

End of Season 1
--------------------
46 Slides + 2 (Nurse, Brian Moser).
They didn't show Dexter taking a trophy with the nurse and he purposely didn't take a sample from Brian.
>48 confirmed kills.

Between Seasons - 38 Days. 0 Kills, Doakes stalking.
---------------------
>48 confirmed kills

End of Season 2
---------------------
>57 confirmed kills

Between Seasons - 27 days, 5 kills
---------------------
>62 confirmed kills

End of Season 3
--------------------
>70 confirmed kills (including Camilla)

So Dexter has 70 confirmed kills, although his estimated kill count (EKC) could be as high as 80, give or take. I'm going to guess he didn't start taking slides right away. He studied blood in college so its likely he may have started there. So between his start and that opportunity, and without police aid, I'm estimating 10 kills.

Confirmed kills for his victims is about 117. Estimated kill count could be as high as 400. The Nurse, Coyotes, Brian, Little Chino, and Skinner have 30 combined confirmed kills but have likely killed hundreds more.

It is also possible to assign Dexter multiple assists.

But all in all, by killing 80, Dexter has avenged about 400 kills and prevented many more."
