10 Most Dangerous Assassins in Comics

[@ajtaylor8750]

Deathstroke is the scariest one on this list because aside from being extremely methodical in his approach to being an assassin, he doesn't care about killing anyone and the way he tortured the Teen Titans in the TV show is next level villainy. This is why I wish Ben Affleck was able to make his Batman film because seeing Joe Manganiello's Slade Wilson destroy Bruce Wayne's life from the inside out would've been so epic to see in live-action.

[@spluddrott]

Down 💯

[@ghostface8746]

I got pissed off ben affleck canceled that movie nah bro now we will never get to see him in live action smh

[@anthonygm85]

I just started watching titans finaly its damn good, in the middle of season 2 almost on to season 3

[@SolidSnake240]

​@@ghostface8746 I blame the studio for ruining Ben's experience with playing Batman.That movie was gonna be crazy

[@samuel411]

Yea its sad that it couldn’t work out the way Ben wanted it to. I feel like maybe if BVS and Justice league did amazing critically and financially, we would have that awesome movie.

[@stevenpani]

I hope Variant does a tribute episode for Kevin Conroy in the near future.

[@martinnguyen2458]

I have the same opinion as yours.

[@kofiosei-kuffour300]

Can we get this guy some more likes

[@Gazpacho834]

More than likely they’re gonna do a special talking about conroys greatest performance as the dark knight.

[@adrianoelblanco9586]

I hope so too… what a loss

[@bobjunior7043]

My thoughts exactly

[@AyushPandey-zf5lc]

Nightwing would make a deadly assassin tbh. Dude's stealth, dexterity and acrobatics is unreal.

[@alexaviercomics4241]

Batman would be scarier, the dude is the most dangerous man on earth, Superman said it

[@George-mi4fk]

Yeah he can become Talon and continue his clans legacy

[@alexaviercomics4241]

@@George-mi4fk maybe not a talón, maybe of Batman didn’t have a killing tule, he’d be deadlier than shiva

[@SajedShadi]

@thunderbolt he was freaking monster in that comic

[@arandomhuman8475]

@thunderbolt can you explain a little more? If I may ask

[@thedeathskeleton4957]

Deathstroke has also at times been noted to be Immortal and Unpredictable like Deadpool, have Photographic Reflexes like Taskmaster, Use anything as a deadly weapon like Bullseye, Never miss like Deadshot, Be a Tactical Genius like Punisher, be a Master of Deception like Black Widow, be a Master of Martial Arts like Elektra, etc. Overall, Deathstroke is like what embodies the perfect mercenary. As versatile as a human can be, and actually Superhuman physically and mentally on top of that. Everything from Superhuman Senses to Self Resurrection, are at his disposal. Every weapon or form of hand to hand combat can be utilized. Nothing is really beyond his capabilities. Not even the very side he is on, whether it's helping the Heroes save the Multiverse or leading the Villains to destroy the Multiverse. He's done both in just the last few years.

[@Kwpwnzbi81jbshsksmabajs]

Danggggg Deathstroke is lit

[@MbayaJoel]

If Damian didn't leave the league of assasins he'd be the most dangerous assassin in comic

[@adrianjoedcruz2497]

Fair enough

[@Dragonbornwarrior]

@thunderbolt also wasn't it stated that cass is one of the few people to beat lady Shiva?

[@dzd__2216]

No

[@grudgematch6653]

I agree

[@grudgematch6653]

@thunderbolt if he stayed in the league of assassins then he’d be way better.

[@romeyrome32]

I hope you, Tim and the crew make separate list for DC and Marvel. It would be great if you did a top ten list or more videos in general about the Valiant universe characters.

[@Draybolt4]

I think the DC list would be exclusively people from the League of Assassins and the Suicide Squad lol

[@romeyrome32]

@@Draybolt4 Basically. Lol. Ra's Al Ghul should be proud as he sits back sipping on some special tea he probably stole from a Egyptian Pharaoh. Lol.

[@jdamourep]

I'm deadass afraid of lobo. He is exceptionally scary. If it wasn't for his weird moral compass he'd be even harder to deal with. He just won't go down.

[@Jason5818UI]

Yeah he's a super-powered bounty hunter with strength and durability in the same class as superman and wont hesitate to kill ...with his vehicle can go nearly anywhere in the universe...Definitely the biggest threat on the list

[@dont_be_delulu]

I'm terrified of his yellow teeth. 😁🤪🤪

[@MikeCrawch]

For real. Lobo should definitely be #1. Dude is willing to go toe to toe against Darkseid lol

[@Jason5818UI]

@@matthewschwartz6607 yep superman ..the animated series...young justice ..justice league and Superman man of tomorrow

[@spiderhamilton1]

As deadly as Frank is, I wouldn't consider the Punisher an assassin. He's a murderous vigilante sure but that's not the same as an assassin. He should be replaced with Gamora who was Thanos' assassin and called the most dangerous woman in the universe.

[@richardporter154]

I agree with you! Vigilante is a better title for him, I don’t think he would kill anyone for money.

[@erikkillmonger1944]

He isn’t an assassin in my opinion

[@paulwright1814]

I’m with you guys. While there’s no doubt that Frank Castle is just as dangerous and formidable as some of the characters on this list, I would never describe him as an assassin. Or even a mercenary. I’ve always The Punisher as a serial killer, who just so happens to target the worst of the worst criminals, as his prey. Some stories have argued that Frank has always been a killer, and kind of a madman, who used the death of his family as an excuse to unleash his inner darkness and to kill people.

[@kosmicj4310]

Totally agree. Super surprised gamora didn’t make the list. Frank is deff a vigilante

[@MrAicex3000]

Man i love comic book readers. Great point.

[@theeric]

This is a damn good list. I love it. It's true that Lady Shiva considers it an honor to train under her & fight against her. She is deadly. The first time I saw Deathstroke in the New Teen Titans, I knew that he would be around for a long time. How cool would it be to have a story where everyone on this list fought each other until the last assassin is standing. Yeah, this is a good list.

[@thedeathskeleton4957]

Lobo could one shot everyone and the planet. Take him out tho, then it'd probably be Deathstroke as the last one standing. Just better overall compared to the rest.

[@MrWhite066]

Genuinely surprised that Lobo wasnt considered more deadly than Deadpool and higher on the list considering how much crazier his healing factor is and ability to go toe to toe with the likes of Superman

[@cbp117]

Guess lobo fits more in Bounty hunter list rather than Assasin is my guess.. Cause I whent also like, woot lobo? He should at least be top 3

[@DonMaximo]

They literally said at the beginning its not in any particular order. 0/10 for comprehension Good job

[@theoutlawking9123]

@@DonMaximo Okay but he even says, at the end when he reaches Deathstroke : "And now the DEADLIEST of them all." Sounds like he listed them to me.

[@AllanG1914]

A separate top 10 for DC and Marvel would basically let you double the list. Side note, Deadpool's healing factor counteracting the Snap would be hilarious if they brought him into the MCU.

[@treemankai1510]

Right. *Death stroke hears snap and just regens* “I refuse😤“😂

[@C.lj6037]

Punisher made the list but The Winter Soldier didn't. The dude's literally Hydra's most lethal weapon.

[@neroblack9116]

I’d love a part 2 of this in the Marvel universe. More people need to know how PSYLOCKE assassinated MAGNETO! Not enough people know about how dangerous she is.

Loved the video, but I think Lobo should be in a separate Bounty Hunters list, thank you for the amazing list!

[@theoutlawking9123]

True, Lobo is more of a Bounty Hunter, not an Assassin.

[@St.Michael6]

Lobo is whatever you pay him to be. He's considered more of a Bounty Hunter because he will take any Bounty

[@D-OveRMinD]

The world has been long denied a big budget, well written, Lobo story. Stupid lethal, but with a moral compass of sorts.

[@vmaninc.761]

The ghostmaker should have been on this list for he's such a badass new character, he was able to get Deathstroke to give up on fighting him; I mean dude seriously had to grab a hostage ghostmaker's prodigy in order to escape being killed, If anyone could make The Terminator give up on eliminating a target and fighting an opponent they are more then worthy of being mention they're freaking deserving the title of "THE GOAT" no matter how recently new the character may be! 🐐 💯🔥😁😉👍

Can you do a history of Cassandra Cain, David Cain or Lady shiva?

[@williampulfer-melville8536]

3:12 Lobo is more of a bounty hunter than an assassin so I think if you do a separate list for bounty hunters in comic books you should still count Lobo
