I Wouldn't Be Afraid of These Super Villains

2/13/2017

Comments

 
   We've all got our favorite superheroes: Superman, Batman, Iron Man, Hulk, Wonder Woman, Spiderman, etc. And for every superhero, there's a bad guy. For some, there are some really bad (as in, pitiful) bad guys. I'll be talking about some of those today--you decide which one is the worst.

1) The Living Eraser

   No, this is not some idea that a bankrupt film major created to save his career. This is a legit Marvel super villain. Apparently, he didn't necessarily have a "good guy" to fight...he was just a simple man trying to abduct scientists to build nuclear weapons. His power? You might have already guessed, but he could erase people with his mind. While the prospect of being erased might seem terrifying at first glance, never fear! The Living Pencil can always redraw you. (Just kidding, there's no such thing, although a battle between him and The Living Eraser would be worth paying to see, in my opinion.)

2) Condiment King

   Just as The Living Eraser was not the brainchild of a failing film major, "Condiment King" is not the name of a condiment superstore chain. Condiment King is also a real villain, hailing from the universe of DC Entertainment. He basically shoots various condiments at his enemies--the only real threat here is if you're allergic to ketchup or mustard. I will give him credit, though, he does have some pretty good lines. In his first appearance in Batman: The Animated Series, according to Batman Wiki, he says, "The big bad Bat-guy. I knew you'd ketchup to me sooner or later. How I relished this meeting. You, the dynamic Dark Knight , versus me, the conceptual Condiment King! Come, Batman. Let's see if you can cut the mustard."
   Unfortunately, soon after, he slips on some ketchup and falls off a building...to his death.

3) Turner D. Century

   Clifford Michaels was your typical, sheltered kid: raised by his father as if it were the early 1900s (in a post World War I society), he adopted the values of that era, only to find out in his adulthood that the world had neglected the morals of the decade he thought he was raised in. Ironically, out of his disdain for the immoral people of his age, he became a villain and terrorized people. Eventually, he developed the Horn of Time, which, theoretically, would kill everyone under the age of 65 when it was blown. Unfortunately for him, it didn't work. 

4) The Leap-Frog

   This Marvel villain is about as intimidating as his name sounds. Also known as Vincent Patilio, the Leap-Frog's best weapon are his springy feet. His first villainous act was--get this--leaping on to planes and keeping them from taking off at a nearby airport. He took it up a notch with his next crime, robbing a jewelry store, but was soon defeated by Daredevil. After several subsequent defeats by Daredevil afterwards, the despairing Vincent Patilio did end up joining forces with the police to capture the White Rabbit, a villainess. Still, capturing a villainess named after a cuddly animal isn't that impressive.

   Who do you think is the worst super villain? Is there another villain that I left out? Let me hear you in the comments below!
