For example, I was NEVER a Kraven fan.... until Last Hunt.
To me, that's nearly the epitome of a villain successfully pulling off a scheme.

The Swarm. Guy's never really gotten a good story, but he's a friggin Nazi Made of Bees!
which always reminds me of the Eddie Izzard bit when I talk about it

Savior. Terrible character that I can't help but love. A murderer who has a sort of psychic power that can make his thoughts become reality. Oh, and he carved the Superman symbol into his forehead.
I want to say Superman's old best friend Kenny Braverman aka Conduit. Loved the stories of them two going at it, although most people hated the character. Enjoyed having a villain going all out on a superhero that they know the identity of.

Actually they were his second gang. People think they were first often because of the cartoon but the Marauders were the originals. Originally Posted by Grazzt

And I love Mr Fish, just because his origin is so wonderfully insane (Man winds up mutated into becoming part fish, automatically decides becoming a supervillain is the right career choice)

For me it is Rhino.
“In case you ever cross the path of a Cosmic Champion, here’s a couple of thing’s to remember. First, don’t try and make a deal. They really don’t do compromise. Second… and this on is the really important one… don’t ever turn your back. Never ever. Because no matter how big a bastard you might like to think you are… the Cosmic Champion is a bigger bastard than you could ever hope to be.”

Yeah, me too. Speaking of awesome Nazi villains, this (well, more like a year ago) would be a really great time to bring back the Ameridroid. I mean, he's a 20-foot-tall Captain America robot with a Nazi brain! What's not to love? Originally Posted by Alan2099

He's the Incredible Mr. Limpet gone terribly wrong. But don't even THINK about laughing at him. Originally Posted by FeminineMystique

Did you ever read the "All the deadly days" one shot? He was REALLY creepy and impresive in that. And managed to do more damage to Gotham than the Joker ever did on his best days. Originally Posted by Corrina

Have either of you ever seen the show the Venture Bros? There is a HYSTERICAL Calendar Man parody named Mr. Monday who has this borderline sexual obsession with Monday. Good stuff. Originally Posted by FeminineMystique

And yes, I love the Venture Brothers. Especially the Monarch who is so wonderfully incompetent.
