Last year, the comics department of IGN.com put together a list of their Top 100 Comic Book Villains of All Time. A number of J'Onn J'Onzz adversaries showed up, so I thought some direct links might be in order, as well as their individual rankings. I agree with IGN's rational for the post part, at least as it applies to where these here folk fall. Prometheus making it out of the bottom rungs is one of a number of unforgivable black eyes against the list as a whole...
96. Despero
84. Doctor Light
46. Doomsday
41. Mongul
36. Vandal Savage
35. Gorilla Grodd
6. Darkseid
You know, maybe it's just my love of the JLTF L-Ron version, but I feel Despero is more badass than any of these, save maybe Darkseid. Seriously, brains, brawn, and the actual emotion of anger compared to Doomsday's vague existential mad-on. Pink brotha's get no love.
ReplyDeleteYou speak truth. Plus, dude rocked a fin mohawk and made it work. That's a greater accomplishment than finding the Anti-Life Equation.
ReplyDeleteYellow brothas also lack for love.
