He is a bad father, a worse husband, an ass of a boss and particularly shitty to the only family he ever knew. He's an interesting character, and a very good ad man, but unlike Bale and Nolan's Batman, where the protaganist is attempting to establish and protect morality in a chaotic world, Draper cares little for anything beyond his own self interest.
