Whenever there is a super hero, super villains are also present. Although most of the super villains does stand not much powerful in front of Super hero but few of them contains similar power as super hero and gives our superheroes a tough competition. And here is the list about those super villains only.
TOP TEN COMIC SUPER VILLAINS OF ALL TIME :-
10) CATWOMAN :-
Publisher | DC Comics |
---|---|
First appearance | Batman #1 (Spring 1940) |
Created by | Bob Kane Bill Finger |
Alter ego | Selina Kyle |
---|---|
Team affiliations | Batman Family Outsiders Birds of Prey Secret Society of Super Villains Injustice League Female Furies Justice League of America |
Notable aliases | The Cat, Irena Dubrovna |

That connection alone is enough to propel Catwoman high up on our list, but it's also worth recognizing her fantastic, layered characterization. In fact her conduct over the years has allowed her to straddle the line of hero and villain, and in recent years she's been more of an anti-hero of sorts, despite constantly breaking the law and defying authorities. (She makes the list because of her decades of villainy mixed with DC's dedication to keeping her just on the darker side of the morality line.)
It's her willingness to play any side to her advantage that makes Catwoman such a compelling character. She serves herself and no other cause or master. She'll clash with Batman if she's executing her latest heist, but isn't afraid to exact her revenge on Hush, stealing his great wealth and leaving a vicious enemy of Batman with nothing but whatever is in his pockets. Her unpredictable nature combined with her unwillingness to play within the rules (which she could easily do given her many superhero contacts and pseudo-allies), makes her certainly one of the most entertaining baddies in the business and one of the strongest female leads in the industry.
9) DARK PHOENIX :-
Publisher | Marvel Comics |
---|---|
Publication date | January – October 1980 |
Genre |
|
Title(s) | The X-Men #129–138 |
Main character(s) | X-Men Hellfire Club Lilandra Shi'ar Imperial Guard Phoenix Force |
Quite honestly, the combined efforts of a half dozen villains on this list aren't likely to surpass what the Dark Phoenix accomplished in a brief moment. While most evildoers scheme and contemplate the destruction of the world, the Phoenix Force, through Jean Grey and in its most savage state, has simply acted and destroyed billions of lives.
As one of the most powerful entities on this list, the Dark Phoenix has immense telepathy and telekinetic abilities, but more importantly control over matter itself. This power level, combined with the classic nature of the original "Phoenix Saga" storyline, has largely prevented Marvel from revisiting the concept, despite teasing it in a limited capacity on numerous occasions through Jean Grey's resurrection or various mini-series that explored the nature of the Phoenix Force itself.
Despite having limited exposure when compared to many of the other villains in the upper ranks of our list, the Dark Phoenix is still one of the most accomplished and legendary. To this day, the Phoenix Saga is regarded as one of the best X-Men stories ever created. That accomplishment alone was a huge factor in our rankings.
8) LOKI :-
Publisher | Marvel Comics |
---|---|
First appearance | historical: Venus #6 (August 1949) modern day: Journey into Mystery #85 (October 1962) |
Created by | Stan Lee Larry Lieber Jack Kirby |
Full name | Loki Laufeyson |
---|---|
Species | Jötunn (Frost Giant) |
Team affiliations | Acts of Vengeance Cabal Mighty Avengers |
Notable aliases | Loki Odinson, Scarlet Witch, Serrure |
Abilities |
|
Important moments aside, Loki is a character that writers must simply love to write as he's been involved in some fantastic stories, the current run of Thor just being the latest of those. His hatred and jealousy of Thor runs so deep that Loki will stop at nothing, including the corruption and destruction of Asgard itself. Loki has even recently inhabited the body of Sif in order to deny the God of Thunder his love.
Loki has never been more important than he is now. As a member of Norman Osborn's villainous cabal, the Asgardian god is now in a position of influence, one that he is exploiting in numerous ways. Osborn's own agreement with Loki is to return Asgard to the heavens. An alliance with fellow Cabal member Victor Von Doom is yielding new control over Asgard. Manipulation of a sect of Avengers is even proving useful as a way to keep Osborn's personal interests under watch and influence.
There are many master manipulators, but this god has proven he has no equal. Marvel's Dark Reign may prove in the end to be the reign of one wicked Norse god.
7) RA'S AL GHUL :-
Publisher | DC Comics |
---|---|
First appearance | Batman #232 (June 1971) |
Created by | Dennis O'Neil Neal Adams |
Team affiliations | The Demon League of Assassins Underground Society |
---|---|
Notable aliases | Ra's, The Demon's Head, Terry Gene Kase,Henri Ducard |
Abilities | Immortality from the Lazarus Pit Genius-level intellect Superior strength and stamina Skilled in martial arts, fencing, and alchemy Holds several centuries worth of accumulated knowledge, experience, and vast resources |
Though Ra's has taken on the entire Justice League of America in the past - and beaten them - his principle opponent throughout his decades of tales has been Batman. Ra's considers the Dark Knight to be his only worthy opponent, and in an ironic twist is actually the grandfather of Bruce Wayne's son, Damien. Best of all is that the Demon Head's ultimate goal, the betterment of the world, is one that speaks to Batman and strikes a bit close to home.
Ra's Al Ghul is easily one of the most unique villains ever crafted. By taking a desire that all of us have and warping it, he is truly a character we love to hate.
6) DARKSEID :-
Publisher | DC Comics |
---|---|
First appearance | cameo: Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #134 (November 1970) full: Forever People #1 (February 1971) |
Created by | Jack Kirby |
Alter ego | Uxas |
---|---|
Species | New Gods |
Place of origin | Apokolips |
Team affiliations | Darkseid's Elite Intergang Secret Society of Super Villains |
Notable aliases | Boss Dark Side |
Abilities |

Darkseid's motivations are rather simple - conquer and control all life by unlocking and solving the Anti-Life Equation, something DC fans saw him achieve in last summer's Final Crisis event. Though the storyline technically took the New God's life, it's hard to imagine the heroes of DC won't find themselves face to face with the ultimate embodiment of evil at some point down the road.
Perhaps the most appealing trait of Darkseid is his lack of interest in direct, physical confrontation. The being formerly known as Prince Uxas has immense strength, endurance and eye beams that can disintegrate, teleport or torture opponents, yet he chooses to manipulate events from the shadows, allowing his minions to act on his behalf. Darkseid's involvement with the New Gods, including his rivalry with the Highfather, the planet New Genesis and the diplomatic exchanges of sons Orion and Mister Miracle add multiple layers to a being that might otherwise be yet another generic worldwide threat. We're certainly glad DC wouldn't allow Kirby to kill off this fantastic villain as he originally planned. Decades of spectacular tales would have been left on the table otherwise.
5) GALACTUS :-
Publisher | Marvel Comics |
---|---|
First appearance | Fantastic Four #48 (March 1966) |
Created by | Stan Lee Jack Kirby |
It's this larger than life presence which makes Galactus one of the more important villains ever created, but it's his ties to Earth and its heroes that make him one of the greats. Through the creation of his heralds, destruction of the Skrull Empire and attempts to devour the Earth, this being is one of the greatest threats ever known to our beloved heroes. Most other villains pale in comparison.
Lastly, though it seems like something small, we can't overlook it. Galactus is one of the few villains on our list to really defy the definition of an evil-doer. He's compelled to destroy worlds because of one simple fact - he's hungry. Can't blame a guy for wanting a little snack… can you?
4) SHREDDER :-
Publisher | Mirage Studios |
---|---|
First appearance | Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 (May, 1984) |
Created by | Kevin Eastman Peter Laird |
Alter ego | Oroku Saki |
---|---|
Team affiliations | Foot Clan |
Abilities | Highly-skilled master of ninjutsu Peak physical condition Master of stealth Genius-level intellect Master strategist |
Shredder, AKA Oroku Saki, is the arch-nemesis of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and their rat-master Splinter. A master in the art of Ninjutsu, Shredder is the leader of the Foot Clan, a fearsome group of warriors and assassins involved in organized crime.
In the original Mirage Comics, revered ninja Hamato Yoshi, once owner of Splinter (pre-mutation), played a key role in Shredder's corruption when he killed his brother in a feud over a woman. Hellbent on revenge, Shredder rose up through the ranks of the Foot Clan and ultimately travelled to New York where he destroyed the powerful Yoshi.
What Shredder didn't count on (we don't really blame him), is that Yoshi's pet rat would mutate into anthropomorphic form and become Sensei to a group of highly-skilled turtle ninjas (also anthropomorphic) and seek to avenge his death.
The Turtles' actually defeated Shredder during their first encounter with him, but a Foot Clan mystic brought the villain back to life using the worms that fed on his body. And lest you forget, the reanimated worm-Shredder's defeat was only short-lived, as he was brought back to life yet again as a Shark-like monster.
Shredder's classic look is samurai-inspired armor, with metal plaques on his shoulders, forearms, hands, and shins. The armor, creator Kevin Eastman says, was inspired by cheese graters. He sports a cape. And Shredder's face, except for his eyes, is obscured by a metal mask.
The Archie Comics version of Shredder, whom most children of the '80s would have come to know before discovering Eastman and Peter Laird's early work, is more of a goofball bad guy.
These issues were initially based on the animated series which saw Shredder take on several different wacky incarnations, including the Ch'rell Utrom version (a gooey stomach-brain creature who lived inside a fighting robot), in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series.
Shredder has appeared in all of the original TMNT videogames, often as the "boss" of the final level.
3) DR. DOOM :-
Publisher | Marvel Comics |
---|---|
First appearance | The Fantastic Four #5 (July 1962) |
Created by | Stan Lee Jack Kirby |
Alter ego | Victor von Doom |
---|---|
Team affiliations | Terrible Trio The Cabal Intelligencia Future Foundation |
Abilities |
|
Doom boasts neither powers nor inherent abilities - a rarity for any being in his genre of comic books. Victim of a troubled past, Victor's mother was taken from him early in life. Seemingly since that time, Doom has sought to prove himself to his peers. Chief among those is Reed Richards, the one man who has proved equal and better to Victor's astonishing intellect. Doom's irrational obsession and animosity towards Mr. Fantastic and his family might be his only fault, the one obstacle keeping his from truly achieving his larger desires - the conquest of all his surveys. The Latverian monarch's ambition might be kept in check by the Fantastic Four and their friends, but if anything, his lust for power grows every day, becoming more and more brazen.
If his depth, characterization and legacy in the Marvel Universe weren't enough, Doom has one other accomplishment that few in the industry have managed - he's one of the inspirations for one of the most infamous characters in pop culture - Darth Vader.
2) JOKER :-
Publisher | DC Comics |
---|---|
First appearance | Batman #1 (Spring 1940) |
Created by | Jerry Robinson (concept) Bill Finger Bob Kane |
Team affiliations | Injustice Gang Injustice League The Society Club of Villains |
---|---|
Notable aliases | Red Hood |
Abilities |

A year ago we argued Joker wasn't necessarily Batman's greatest enemy, a fact which would clearly make his high rank here a bit of a mystery. Over the past year, however, three high profile projects reminded us why this character is absolutely one of the best ever created and developed throughout the history of superhero comic books. The Dark Knight, Joker and Batman R.I.P. are not only three of the greatest Batman stories ever created, but perfect examples of why the Joker is the quintessential comic book villain. He exists because of his enemy, and without creatures like the Joker, there would be no Batman. More importantly, this villain is capable of reinventing himself in various iterations, whether it's the savage, sadistic one in R.I.P., the chaos agent in Knight or even the light-hearted comedian from the animated series some 15 years ago.
A great villain isn't just capable of wicked deeds or murder. Depth and layer matter. Heroes and villains are inextricably linked, and just as the sign of a great hero is a great villain, the opposite is true. The Joker must stand up to and alongside the Caped Crusader. This is one of the rare villains to possibly do even more than that. As his movie role last summer proved, he can even surpass one of the greatest heroes of all time. That takes a special something.
