No-good Fawkes is the villain (3,3)

I believe the answer is:

bad guy

'the villain' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'no-good fawkes' is the wordplay.
'no good' becomes 'bad' (similar in meaning).
'fawkes' becomes 'guy' (gunpowder plotter Guy Fawkes).
'bad'+'guy'='BAD GUY'

'is' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
