After i posted my previous article about the 20 greatest super villains of all time, I received several comments about me not really knowing much about the Marvel Universe. In this article, I will present to you my top 20 Marvel super villains. I will give you reasons as to why these 20 made it on to my list and go a step further and explain why certain villains didn't make it onto the list.


As apposed to my previous list, this list won't have such strict barriers. All villains in the Marvel Universe are fair game!


20. Lullaby



She's not psychotic, but she is a complete B*tch! She can sing people to sleep and then control them... She did this with a rich man and ordered him to divorce his wife and marry her. She then ordered him to jump out the window to his death. Lullaby though not a well known villain is definitely capable of holding her own against X-men, Avengers etc. Her powers make her capable of even controlling super villains.


19. Stryfe


Extinction Agenda... Stryfe was raised as a son by Apocalypse and Strife saw him as dear old Dad. But this didn't stop him from trying to destroy him... and the rest of the world with him...

18. Apocalypse

I'm gonna skip telling you why I chose this baddy since I've already explained my reason in my previous editorial.

17. Thanos

Here ya go fan boys! Your mac daddy of evil! Thanos comes in at # 17 because he's the only being crazy enough to fall in love with Death herself.

16. Demogoblin

Demogoblin, ok so he's not Green goblin but I hope you guys accept this demonic sob in his place. Demo Goblin is crazier and far more powerful than Green Goblin, Hob Goblin, Grey Goblin or any other Goblin you can think of, plus he's crazy enough to accept that Shreik and Carnage consider him their son.

15. Shadow King

The reason Charles Xavier created the X-Men and yet he's never been completely defeated... he haunts Xavier's every waking and sleeping moment. Need I say more?

14. Phalanx


Phalanx is Marvel's answer to "The Borg". It took several tie in comics to deal with them and even jump started the creation of Generation-X.

13. Nimrod

The ultimate Sentinal. here ya go Marvel fanboys, I didn't want to put the Sentinals on here, but here's the next best thing.


12. Loki

The God of Mischief. Again, there ya go Marvel fanboys, you asked for him so I don't really see a reason to tell you why he's on the list. Now I know many of you are gonna throw a fit over him being in the #12 spot but be thankful I included him at all.

11. Mephisto

He takes pleasure in people thinking he's the Devil himself. Evil Evil Evil, but not quite evil enough since he tried to stop his son from creating Hell on Earth.

10. Dark Phoenix


She nearly wiped out the entire Shi'ar Empire. The darkness that resides in Jean Grey made itself known with a bang.

9. Chameleon


Able to make himself into anybody, Spider-man was constantly looking over his shoulder when this villain discovered his identity.


8. Baron Helmut Zemo



One of the few villains to not only take on Captain America toe to toe, but also deceive the entire world into thinking he was a superhero after Onslaught wiped out most of the Marvel Universe's heroes.


7. Dracula


I don't really think I need to tell you why he's on the list.

6. Exodus

Immortal, powerful and immoral. Though a loyal descyple of Magneto, I don't think it would take to much to make this mutant turn against his master and destroy him.

5. Black Heart

Son of Mephisto, former ruler of Hell. I don't think to many beings can say they were literally kicked out of hell for being to evil, but he can.

4. Carrion

he touches people and they die, what more do you need?

3. Planet of the Symbiotes



2. Carnage


The name says it all...
1. Shreik


Her scream causes those around her to turn against each other, War incarnate... psychotic enough to convince Carnage to take her as his bride and mother of the Carnage family. I chose her as #1 based on this as well as her origins of being a drug dealer... there is no one more evil in the world.






Now I know there are several fanboys out there who are probably throwing a hissy fit right now because Dr. Doom and Magneto weren't included in the list. It's not that I don't like them, but I mean come on... you can defeat Dr. Doom by taking his mask off and making him look in a mirror.As for Magneto... Boohoo, "I'm gonna seek my revenge on all of humanity because the Nazi's killed my parents and tortured me." His powers are cool, but seriously take away his powers and he's nothing but a child sucking his thumb in the corner.
