Lex Luthor Is NOT Superman's Only Good Villain

[@comiclads]

Let us know who YOUR favourite Superman villain is! 🤔👇

[@TheShrekTheTacoandTheBallerina]

Idk I like Darkseid a lot but I see him more as a Justice League villain. My favorites(other than Lex) are Metallo, Brainiac, Mongul, Bizarro and Doomsday. Zack Snyder too

[@DorkNight5555]

Lobo or bizarro I can’t decide

[@comiclads]

Lobo is so underrated - we’d love to see him in live action someday too🔥

[@CrimsonShadow-1941]

I definitely agree with the Metallo argument for one specific reason. Imagine the storyline for a sequel specific film where Superman thinks himself invincible and someone who can resolve any conflict only to be blindsided by something able to actually hurt and possibly kill him. The whole film would basically be Clark coming back to terms with his mortality. All thanks to Metallo

[@THE-COD-FISH]

Brainiac. His Injustice 2 story is really cool.

[@billyboleson2830]

Superman unironically has one of the most underrated rogue’s galleries in comics and no I’m not joking

[@comiclads]

He has SO many good villains to choose from🔥

[@georgeclarke3042]

When you guys mention about bizzaro I remember a KZbinr called bandit incorperated he did videos on what upcoming movies could it he did one for Age of Ultron and BVS haven’t seen them in over 10 years so can’t remember exactly but I’m sure bizzaro was used in that plus he makes more logical sense then doomsday

[@georgeclarke3042]

Plus with doomsday in BVS if I had to change it I’ll have the trinity find a way to send doomsday to space so then he could come back in later films as a more comic accurate version plus keeping superman alive in BVS I know it’s not the best but if doomsday had to be in it that’s what I do

[@plutoniumfriedrice]

stop lying to yourself drider his rogues are trash

[@turtleanton6539]

[@BP-dn9nv]

Kind of sad that one of the oldest superheroes in existence has so many great villains that never get used. Ah well, at least it's not as forgotten as Wonder Woman's.

[@Linklex7]

Probably cause so many adaptations only ever used Lex Luthor & Toy Man. I think that’s why so so many casuals know who Toyman is despite being a C-List villain in the comics. Even Zod only made a single appearance in part 2 and never showed up again until Smallville. I don’t know if it was a rights issue or not

[@mevan883]

I don't think Lobo is really a villain.

[@supermrmainman]

Personally my favorite Superman villain group is The Elite. They had 1 comic but it was a great examination of Superman’s moral philosophy. They did a PEAK animated movie about it.

[@milkiassamuel780]

Same. The Elite are such a great representation of the cynical 21st nihilistic worldview a lot of younger people today share as they believe Superman's worldview and old timey methods are outdated. Superman vs The Elite animated movie is also probably my personal favourite Superman movie and I adore how they adapt the comic

[@comiclads]

That movie is peak

[@Eking-su3tr]

The Elites weren’t really villains tho Anti heroes who kill

[@NegaHumanX]

That movie is a must watch. So satisfying.

[@thomasspeed9434]

I think Parasite is a pretty sick villain. Great design and power set for countering Superman, often requiring Superman to outsmart him rather than relying on brute force.

[@NegaHumanX]

I love that he's Rogue without as many drawbacks.

[@theghostofjeffgoldblumdail9613]

Atomic Skull, while not my favorite villain, has always been interesting to me, because think about it, the guy gives off massive amounts of dangerous radiation, and it’s harmless to Superman, but it’s deadly against bystanders, and it’s interesting seeing Superman try to save as many people as he can while fighting him.

[@nicholasmurray7505]

@theghostofjeffgoldblumdail9613 I always liked him in JLU especially his final comment asking for a head start before the JL catch them

[@NegaHumanX]

He's such a good villain. I like the version where he's a punk bully who happened into his powers. I feel it's a good counter to Superman's more mature way of dealing with his abilities. The look doesn't hurt either. Love me a flaming skull face. I'm pretty sure his blasts hurt Superman too, though I could be wrong.

[@cole6843]

Parasite, Toyman, and Mongul are also pretty good. I hope James Gunn will expand Superman's rogues gallery in the dcu! Instead of just using Lex luthor.

[@turtleanton6539]

Parasite could beat anyone

[@Coconut_Prrson]

And Manchester Black

[@NegaHumanX]

Can't wait for the new original characters Lod and Zex. They're both Kryptonian.

[@dragonbornrook]

I’ve always loved Metallo and The Atomic Skull.

[@airstep001]

That's the guy in Superman vs the Elite/ What's so funny about truth justice and the American way right

[@edwinsolis5710]

THANK YOU Also Brainiac is great, but he shouldn’t be Kryptonian. He’s from Colu, and he’s a mirror to Jor-El. Bizarro I like him because he’s embodying Superman’s heroism where he has good intentions but because of how he is twosted into being the reverse he can only do evil so he’s trapped inside his own body.

[@Theblackout292]

I prefer him being kryptonian A.I.

[@jamestolbert1856]

@@Theblackout292me too

[@Drums_of_Liberation]

No. Brainiac having his origins on Krypton makes him a more personal villain for Supes.

[@youtubeistryingtocensorme]

I like Brainiac as Kryptonian. And I don’t care who’s got a problem with it

[@oisinl3854]

My favourite is Mr. Mxyzptlk because the sort of fifth dimension fairy tale magic is so at odds with the normal hero universe

[@comiclads]

It’s such a fun way to introduce chaotic supernatural elements into Superman’s life

[@Den3zo]

General Zod has so much potential. I'd imagine him showing up early in Superman's story and he would tell him about Krypton's culture and Kal-Els parents, but he would twist the truth so he would look like the good guy, so that Superman would become his loyal pawn, just for Superman to somehow find out that he's not as benevolent as he seems and then Zod would drop the facade and essentially go full Omni-Man on Clark. And everytime they face off Clark would have conflicted feelings about fighting him, since he's on one hand extremely evil, but on the other hand, he's the only connection he has to Krypton (at least before Supergirl arrvies to earth)

[@sarafontanini7051]

i have this idea of Zod rising up against the leaders of krypton to try and make kryptonians more dominant (maybe have him mirror Lex where he has an intense hatred/distrust of non-kryptonians) and wants to perform experiments to make kryptonians unlock their potential powers (like in my version of events he knows someone who found the potential for powers in their DNA somehow and he wants to gain that power) also i want Zod to wear the red armour the russian Zod wore. Cause it looks rad as fuck and deserves to be worn by the real zod and not some random russian guy who took his name cause a ghost spoke to him.

[@benjaminglazer7217]

Brainiac has always been my favorite. I love his whole mission and creation

[@ComicTributes]

Toyman is my favorite Superman villain, and I have my reasons. He is like the Jigsaw of villains with traps, inventions, a doll/puppet avatar, and a trauma-based insanity. While he may not be as smart as Lex or as Deductive as Batman, I believe he is the best inventor in all of DC Comics. For example, he managed to make… - A bouncy ball that never lost energy, constantly bouncing off of everything until it can move fast enough to even hurt Superman - A giant rubber duck with sharp teeth that can again fight on par with Superman and consistently hurt Superman, even driving him into the ground - Toy planes that shoot bullets at a fast enough rate to both hit and hurt Superman - A ray gun that can transfer someone to literally anywhere in the universe … and Toyman did all of this without using Kryptonite. He seemingly has no bounds to what his “toys” can do. He has a lot of raw power and an interesting character that’s kind of akin to Professor Pyg.

[@The_Phantasm]

Aside from Lex Luthor and Brainiac, my favourite Superman villain by far is Mister Mxyzptlk. He had by far some of the best issues of the Superman Adventures tie-in comics.

[@comiclads]

He’s goated

[@XX_14days]

Personally, my favorite Superman Villian has to be Bizzaro . I just love the way he was depicted in the animated series

[@spencermalley10]

I've always really liked Parasite. There's a wonderful simplicity to his character, his visual design is terrific and he's one of Superman's greatest physical threats without needing Kryptonite

[@The_Phantasm]

Absolutely agreed. Although one villain that has been used very often that I have never been a fan of his General Zod.

[@DmanDmythDlegend]

May I ask why the general consensus seems to be General Zod is a bad villain? I haven’t read that many Superman comics so I only know him from the movies, and he seemed fine enough there, he’s not an S tier villain by any means though.

[@shauntempley9757]

@@DmanDmythDlegend He is bad, because he is a total reverse of Superman. Bizarro is better for that story and character purpose, which is why he is far more popular.

[@azuresaiyan9005]

@shauntempley9757 That version of Brainiac was for only one version of the character. Hardly the standard of what he should be.

[@billyboleson2830]

Still wild to me how Zod never appeared in the animated series

[@The_Phantasm]

@@billyboleson2830 They couldn't for legal reasons, but he did appear in the tie in comics. To be honest I really don't care because I just don't care about the character.

I've always argued that Superman has the most underrated rogues gallery in all of comics. Spider-Mans are well known but let's be honest, majority are B/C teir. You can even argue the same for Batman but I have his rogues over Spider-Mans.

[@davidbjacobs3598]

I will not take this Spidey villain slander!

[@hudsonspl7802]

Hear me out. World's Finest Movie with Superman and Batman fighting Toy Man. He's a villain that can truly match both our their tones and themes.

[@johnnybeatmaker330]

No need to hear you out we need brother . WE NEED IT!

[@NegaHumanX]

I never thought of him being the villain in a World's Finest movie. If they use the more sympathetic version of him, where he's an adult who genuinely wants to be a child and protect children from the horrors of adulthood, we could have a great source for conflict between the heroes. I could see Superman defending him from Batman's more brutal attempts to take him down (since Bats doesn't know him or how to deal with him) while trying to de-escalate the situation. Bats could be going too hard on him since he reales to the idea of the kids never seeing their parents again while Supes could find out that the parents are abusing their kids and using investigating Toyman as a cover for investigating the parents.

[@barq6994]

I feel Atomic Skull has a lot of potential and nobody's done a storyline with him as the main villian but could.

[@KingBishop]

For me it's Lobo. He was awesome on tv's Krypton.

[@misterelom]

My favorites: Brainiac, Zod, Bizarro, Hank Henshaw/Cyborg Superman. Another one I really loved and seems to be forgotten about is Conduit (Kenny Braverman). As far as I can remember, I think he was only used in the comics once or twice but the storyline of him finding out Superman's identity and leaving the cryptic "I Know" messages for Clark and then the telling of his origin where he was a childhood friend that was jealous of Clark was excellent. Would love to see some version of that in live action. Check out the "The Death Of Clark Kent" storyline from 1995, it's really good.

[@sarafontanini7051]

main reason conduit didn't show up again was cause he died at the end of his big storyline and he stayed that way for ages, but i agree.

[@NegaHumanX]

Even if Nuclear Man was brought in as a campy fun character for comedic side stories he has a ton of potential. Being a failed Lex experiment, not having fully mental capacity, having solar/nuclear powers that could mutate over time. I'd love to see him on a Suicide Squad or even join a different Rogues Gallery.

[@civilbeast165]

My favorite is toyman. He’s got a lot of untapped potential. He could make mech suits and atonomus robots like Ironman suits for him and others to wear so they could actually fight Superman themselves or just make more powerful robots the only thing holding him back is his childish mind that makes him want to make everything toy like. Heck, he accidentally created a time machine in the justice league show

[@jamestolbert1856]

You left out Zod, the perfect foil for Kal-El. He wants to bring back his people by conquering the Earth. And serves as its emperor cause he believes that he’s the only capable of ruling it with care.

[@GenericProtagonist118]

Like how Batman's rogues mirror him I think that If one were to actually try then even Superman's rogues could work.

[@matthew24153]

Here are some other rogues from the man of steel's adventures. -Ultra-Humanite: Superman's first villain, he was originally a frail human scientist who would later transplant his brain into other bodies until he got to the albino gorilla body we all know. -Microwave man: learned about this guy from casually comics, old man asking alien friends for super powers to prove said aliens friends exist. -Volcana: Pryokinetic woman who was created for the 90s Superman cartoon and does have a comic book appearance. -Galactic Golem: A weapon Lex made from science-fiction space matter and hyperstellar energy, it was powerful enough to Superman on the ropes when battling him. -Ignition: A cyborg conjured into existence by the Joker who had the powers of Mr.Mxyzptlk for a time. -Bruno Mannheim: The most known leader of Intergang and a devout worshiper of the religion of crime and servant of Darkeid.

[@seantaylor424]

Superman: The Animated Series was a gift. So many villains wouldn't be known of at all without that show. Parasite may not be my favorite bank-robbing villain, but he's still a cool concept and Lobo probably could have been Deadpool before Deadpool claimed that spot if he was managed a little better...I struggle to think of HOW he could have been better managed and half-suspect superheroes just weren't "In" enough at the time for Lobo to soar, but that doesn't make him, Parasite, Livewire or Metallo any less cool and they're arguably more versatile than Doomsday and Brainiac (hard to imagine anyone besides Superman being able to fight Doomsday while Brainiac feels like he/it can only do big-scale stories).

[@kingshark5887]

[@NegaHumanX]

[@johnholliday7042]

Ultra humanite is the most underrated Superman villain. He was Superman’s original arch nemesis before Luther. He was Superman’s total opposite an evil genius paralyzed from the waist down and had a lot of recurring appearances before he died and was replaced by Luther. But they brought him back later where he moved his brain into an albino gorilla so he no longer has the weakness he had before.

Silver Banshee got cursed by not appearing in S:TAS. She was probably the same level as Parasite and Metallo before (from my limited knowledge), but she wasn't in the adaptation that defined the character for so many fans. Therefore, she's become largely forgotten.

[@NegaHumanX]

@@davidbjacobs3598 I don't know the issues numbers (and haven't gotten to her part in my current Superman read because I got distracted with a Wonder Woman binge. everything I've read about her is third person), but from what I've read she seems to only have her introduction in the John Byrne’s run ( Action Comics #595 I think) and a newer origin in New 52. That's why I think she'd do well in a one off episode. She doesn't seem to have many stories to back up her cool concept. A really good episode could solidify her in the minds of fans and help her get the Mr.Freeze treatment.

With the increasing use of AI in our daily lives, Brainiac would be the perfect villain in a modern Superman movie

[@corrinflakes9659]

What’s great about Superman being busted in stats for his rogues gallery is that they’ll naturally rely more on Hax. Such as with Mr. Mxyzptlk. They have to be wacky or esoteric to counter Superman.

[@lucaslongolucasksenha7827]

Basically Lex Luthor has become the joker of the Metropolis/Superman villain gallery rogue (Popularity aleast, like when they immediately think Joker as Batman main villain while forgetting others Batman villain like Bane, Penguin, The Riddler, Killer Croc, Two Face/Harvey Dent, Poison Ivy and many others Batman villains, is that people only think of Lex Luthor forgetting Doomsday, Brainiac, Bizarro Superman [I don't know if Bizarro is consider a villain or a anti hero], Metallo, General Zod and many others [Darkseid is debatable if he is a Superman villain or a Justice League villain])

[@BM-sg1sl]

Lex Luther has always been that joker equivalent for Superman for decades. That’s not really new

[@shauntempley9757]

I actually think that Luthor was never Superman's Joker to begin with. He has always felt more like Penguin in how he operates than Joker. For me, that role is taken now by Darkseid, since their very first fight. He attacks Superman on a far greater level than Luthor ever could, not just psychologically, but also in a power level, and as a threat to everything Superman protects on top of it. In this, Darkseid is far better in the Joker nemesis role with Superman than Joker is with Batman now, to the point that their relationship is unique.

My favorite Superman villain is Lex, but that doesn’t mean I always want him front and center. I would enjoy more cyborg Superman, and mongul as in-ur-face threats

[@Tristan_Hitchens]

Bizarro is my favorite Superman villain, especially when he’s with the Outlaws

[@jonathananandappa8375]

Lex is my favourite character in comics because he’s a comic version of my favourite literary character (Milton’s Satan). But I feel like Braniac may work better in a comic setting.

Superman and Lois I thought had a great Bizarreo. I loved he white cracked skin, glowing blue eyes, backwards S and ripped cape. That was definitely Bizarreo.

[@plasticweapon]

brainiac, bizarro, doomsday, metallo, parasite, eradicator, maxima, mytzlpk, silver banshee, all good villains.

[@DmanDmythDlegend]

I can’t decide who my favorite is. It’s probably Lex but I really like Brainiac,Mr.Mxyzptlk, and Darkseid.

[@Neon-mg9do]

I personally love Parasite, even more so after seeing how they did him in MAWS

[@soldierofgod7412]

Also The Flash Rouges Gallery is underrated asf it’s very colorful and the only villain team that gets along they work together on certain occasions.

I agree Superman has great villains. Zod is a fantastic villain . Even zac Snyder could make him cool. But bizarro and brainiac are great as well .

[@HiddenBrother619]

My favorite Superman rogue is the giant ape that could shoot kryptonite lasers. Its so funny and unexpected forna Superman villian

[@thesmellofadventure5370]

Here my favorite villains that aren’t Lex, Doomsday, Darkseid, or Zod (Superman might have my fav rogue’s gallery tbh): 1: Bizzaro (Honestly my fav Superman villain. Bizzaro>Lex) 2: Brainiac (Ik he’s famous, but he’s still a goated villain) 3: Mr. Mxyzptlk (People need to start respecting Mr. Mxyzptlk) 4: Mongul (I would love to see him as a main villain in a film) 5: Metallo (So glad you guys gave Metallo some attention) 6: Parasite (Had some of the best episodes in Superman: The Animated Series) 7: Cyborg Superman (I mean, he’s a Cyborg Superman🐐) 8: Toyman (You wouldn’t expect it, but he’s pretty creepy)

[@praveenvijeyakumar741]

Have you guys seen Brainiac in the show Krypton? It's the only time I've ever seen him in live-action, and they did a great job with him.

[@comiclads]

Never watched the show but his design was 🤌

[@NegaHumanX]

He was in Smallville too.

Lobo, Mongul, Parasite, Metallo, Livewire. Really from Superman TAS. Lol. I've always wanted to see Metallo on screen. I thought the BvS had a perfect set up for him. The character that lost his legs in the Superman-Zod battle had the perfect motivation.
