Problem:
For this discussion post, focus on those important lines in which Satan speaks, especially those first three big speeches (lines 84-125, lines 157-191, and lines 242-270). What kind of character is Satan here? What's his problem with god, and how does he decide it's best to act now that he and his rebel angels have been kicked out of heaven? Is there anything to like about him? If not, why not. If yes, what is it that's likable?
