I would have to say Venom or Carnage, probably because of their superpowers.

Ultimate Warrior... :shifty:
I mean Galactus (even though he's not really bad, just hungry).

Their costumes ARE their superpowers.

There was something cool about a villain who you pretty much are guaranteed to never stop. I loved early encounters between Juggernaut and Spider-Man.

Venom because...
1. he looks really cool
2. his powers mimick Spiderman's exactly
3. Spidermnan cannot use his Spidersense against Venom
4. He's twice as strong as Spidey
5. Has unlimited web
6. He knows that Peter Parker is Spiderman
7. And his one goal in life is to kill Spiderman

I've always liked The Joker from the Batman comics because I really like his "goofy but dangerous" type of character :y:

My favourite villains would have to be Apocalypse and his Four Horsemen, especially Archangel. Mainly because I'm an X-Men mark and because Archangel looked cool.

Joker
He's not the pussy villian he was on the tv show that just kidnaps people. IN the comics he straight up kills people. And like someone already says he does it in sort of sick demented ways. The acid squirting flower, the nerve gas that makes them contort into a smile. Or just shooting them for whatever reason sometimes as well.
Thanos is another good one. Especially when he had the Infinity Gauntlet. He owned everyone for that period of time.

Carnage, the character just makes him awesome.
Juggernaut, Joker, and Bastion are some other ones I enjoy.

Lex Luthor.
He's a human being who is somehow able to stand up to Superman. He has depth, intelligence, and even warmth. Excellently written.
Honourable mention: God, in Preacher.

4. He's twice as strong as Spidey
5. Has unlimited web
6. He knows that Peter Parker is Spiderman
7. And his one goal in life is to kill Spiderman
2. They do? Because last time I checked, Spider-Man couldn't change costumes with a thought.
4. Actually, he's probably far stronger than that.
5. No, he's actually shown that his webbing runs out. It just regenerates "naturally" because it's part of his symbiote.
7. His one goal in life is to protect innocence. In his twisted mind, this used to involve killing Spider-Man. When Spider-Man helped a weakened Eddie Brock save his wife from a collapsing ferris wheel, that relationship changed to a "live and let live" relationship. Unless something major has changed in comics of late.

Killing half of the entire universe with a snap of your fingers qualifies you as more than a "good one" IMO. Plus the way he went about obtaining the Infinity Gems was much cooler than what he actually did with them. Let's not forget that the guy battled Odin to a draw, and then went on to pick a fight with a significantly powerful and nearly godlike being (Tyrant, spawn of Galactus, for anyone who is interested) out of sheer boredom. And then he became God again, killed EVERYONE, and then rebooted the universe. Plus, has anyone read his new series? It's awesome. He's decided to take on Galactus himself.
-edit-
Oh, and I didn't get around to reading it, but didn't he fight Darkseid in the DC universe too?

I'm going to have to go with Lex Luthor because Gene Hackman does such a fine job playing the character. :y:

It's not just Gene Hackman.
In Lois & Clark, He was portrayed as a totally awesome character, despite some problems with other characters in the show.
In the current Justice League Cartoon, he's beyond awesome even.
There's an episode where the Justice League deals with a parallel Universe JL, one who became drastically altered by the death of their flash. They developed a totalitarian view towards crimefighting, one which involved Superman and buddies doing something that the normal Supes and co wouldn't do...Kill for the "greater good." Ruthless and uncompromising.
So the real Superman makes a deal with the Devil: Lex Luthor. LL helps Supes rebuild one of his toys, a power disruptor, to use against the other Justice League.
The coolest part is, once he's taken the alternate KL down, he faces Superman, makes a comment on how it could be so sweet...But that a deal's a deal. He then turns over the gun...

I'm talking about the movie, not the comic, this is a TV/Movie forum board, not a books board.

Wow. And where did I mention a comic book (in reference to LL)?
I mentioned Lois and Clark, a <u>TV Show.</u> and next, I mentioned the Justice League, the events which I described occuring in the cartoon (EG, <u>TV Show</u>).
But yeah, you sure showed me. :lol:

Oh, and I'd better not mention Smallville, either, because comic books don't count. :shifty: :lol:
