Make a supervillain for him user

DEEPFAKE - a mystery person or group who create videos of Super-Dickery, and has been at it long enough to establish a viral presence on the net.

In reality, a lone neckbeard who has shaken Luthor down for a few BTC to support his computer hardware and hentai addictions. He's heard enough about Luthor to avoid any kind of non-anonymous contact with LexCorp, but greed may get the better of him.

He sincerely admires Superman, which was what made the first few videos so funny. Now Lex is pressuring him to make videos of Superman committing crimes...

A super guy who is powered by the moon.

The Hack

An immesely powerful reality warper who believes he knows Superman like nobody else and uses his powers to twist Superman's life into his ideal version of what should be.

Kryptonius, the World-Ending God of Kryptonite

Evil Clark Kent

He's like Clark Kent, but evil. Whenever Superman leaves to do Superman things, Evil Clark Kent sometimes pops up and takes Clark Kent's place.

Honestly, Marvel Ghost would be an interesting villain for Superman. Basically someone who Superman cannot physically harm or restrain due to being intangible and has a vendetta against Luthor that went too far . Make him able to possess people, or tie him to the phantom zone, like an Earth scientist who discovered it or something

I always wondered how Superman would deal with a guy like Zsasz

A singer/celebrity who can mind-control a normal person with their voice while they are talking.

Singer was the hack, Zack simply had a terrible vision.

A human from our Earth that got stranded on Earth Prime. He knows everything about everyone. He uses this information to never kill, but destroy lives. He’s basically what happens if a comic fan made his way to Earth Prime and was evil.

By living in a city with a competent police force.

Easy
>See No, Hear No, and Speak No. A terrible trio who posses powers relating to sight, hearing, and speech. They can make your senses torture, or take them away entirely.

I felt like The Hollow Men were a more than capable Superman villain. If I were to create anything I'd probably do something in that vein.

>107983849
Corrupt US government?

Kirby after Clark ate his cake.

A really smart metahuman who uses his powers to make others kill for him. After a while Clark notices that several reports show a clear pattern of a serial killer on the loose in Metropolis, but the authorities dismiss the notion because in every case the culprit is found. As the bodies start to pile up in the morgue, Superman becomes desperate that flying around in his cape is doing nothing to stop the menace, and decides take on the streets as Clark and use his investigative skills to solve the mystery.

Would it count if he was a great escape artist in this universe?

Metallo

But he is a Shazam villain, you dumbo

You'd be better off making him a serial killer who only strikes when it is confirmed Superman is out of Metropolis.

I love the broader idea of an anti-Lex. Someone who truly views themselves as a champion of the people and comes from humble beginnings. Maybe someone like The Hood who isnt even that powerful or even intelligent, but they have a craftiness and low cunning that lets them swing way above their weight.

Samefagging to add to this: The problem with this would be writing them in a way that didnt turn both Lex and Superman into total idiots. His wins would have to feel earned or he'd be annoying.

The Kryptonian equivalent of Superman, Lex Luthor/and or Batman comes to Earth and decides to take over.

Basically a kryptonian hero gone bad.

So Snyder is Terror Vision?

Different user btw.

That's Dead Water, he's currently Aquaman third arch enemy after Ocean Master and Black Manta

Ironically you accidentally described Mister Mxyzptlk.

>The Concierge
Alien travel agent with deep connections to the supervillain community. Brings groups of aliens to Earth and disguises them as human in order to watch hero/villain fights. Not a direct threat, but every time he shows up Metropolis suffers an uptick in supervillain activity (the Concierge commissions supervillains to attack Superman while he's got a tour group present) and having to deal with boorish alien tourists.

Koni Martel is a South African drug lord who gets holds of nuclear weapons and unleashes them against metropolis, all at once, except he miscalculated the tragectory and superman doesn't manage to stop the one that falls on Smallville.
Superman finds a new rage within himself he didn't know he could have, and when he finds himself about to kill the guy, he finds a schizophrenic drug addict who can barely take care of himself. Despite being a genius and very malicious, his disability and weak body make a huge moral dilemma on superman. As he thinks to himself how accountable Koni can be held for his actions, a second launch commences, this time from a base far enough for superman not to realize until it's too late. Koni tells Superman the only way to stop the bombs is to kill him, but superman is unsure if the anomaly in his heartbeat was because he lied or a heart failure. Sups now has to decide weather to kill this man believing that crazy claim, or fly as fast as he can (again, weakened) and stop the bombs, which target is of course a mystery.

I mean you could play him like a grassroots activist/terrorist. Maybe even have him not always be behind the villainous plots, like he just has rogue followers as well as his own "extra"legal activities. He doesn't need to be bugs bunnying Superman and Lex, just a man with charisma and craftiness that can be an obstacle. Like even if Superman does put him in jail, he'd still have his followers. Maybe even make it so Superman has to defend him from Lex in an arc, since Lex would both resent the guy and his death would bring blame towards Superman and set off his followers.

Delusion
>A delusion starts like any other idea, as an egg. Identical on the outside, perfectly formed. From the shell, you'd never know anything was wrong. It's what's inside that matters. Albert A had an idea. One day, as he was walking, he stumbled. And for a moment, it seemed that his right leg didn't belong to him. This is how it begins. The leg was clearly Albert's. It was attached to his body, and when he pricked it, he felt pain. But despite that, the idea grew. Such is the power of an idea. With every day that passed, Albert became more and more certain that this was not his leg. He decided he didn't want it anymore. And so one day, he went to the hardware store. You see, an idea alone isn't enough. We have ideas all the time, random thoughts and theories. Most die... before they can grow. For a delusion to thrive, other, more rational ideas must be rejected, destroyed. Only then can the delusion blossom... into full-blown psychosis.

Delusion is a memetic villain and what is harder for Superman to fight than ideas. Delusion eventually leads to moral panic, panic against Superman.

>Moral panic is defined as "public anxiety or alarm in response to a perceived threat to the moral standards of society." The road to moral panic has several stops. The first is concern. This concern, limited at first, spreads from person to person... amplified by cultural forces... until rational concern becomes irrational fear. People come to believe something terrible is happening. Something they cannot see. That they can't control. It has come for others. It will come for them. Whether or not the threat is real, the response certainly is. And it is often excessive. Ask yourself: What's more terrifying, fear, or the frightened?

What can Superman do to save people who don't want to be saved by him, who would rather die than be confronted by Superman?

There's this guy who's only know among a special circle of underworld criminals, who goes with the name of "The Nullifier." Tech-based criminals constantly seek for his aid and services, while genius level and metahuman-based criminals like Lex Luthor or Gorilla Grodd want to kill him out of pure fear and paranoia because as his name implies, The Nullifier has the unique ability of cancelling out the special abilities of any specially gifted beings on a five mile ratio around him by simply being there.
He is incredibly difficult to contact and nobody has ever seen him in person- all of his business transactions are performed online, but if you can contact him, and if you can pay his price, he will take a walk around a super criminal's general turf and depower him to leave him depowered and vulnerable, ready to be killed by the new crime lords.
Want to steal something on Gotham but don't want to get Batpunched through a wall before you escape with your loot? Hire this guy and Batman will never be able to deduce your methods, will not be able to predict your escape and will not be able to break your alibi, BUT only if you can steal and escape without being spotted by him in the first place.

Do you have a beef with Superman? The Nullifier will cancel out his powers (but not his super-toughness) by simply strolling around Metropolis, so you can go and give him a super beating thanks to your power armor, or energy gloves or what you have, and Superman will never know why his powers fizzled out out from nowhere.

Now, here is the trick: The Nullifier has no other particular traits: he looks like a completely normal human, his strength, endurance and durability are the same of your average human and so he can be killed with ease, but to do that you first need to know how he looks like and where he is, and the only way to do this is by getting close to him and fall under his power-cancelling abillity.

yawn

Seconded. Sounds like the lazy fake moral shite we already get in modernia mate

Strawman. A regular human in terms of durability that when hurt or killed shunts it off to someone else. Can even switch places with someone. Not a world ender just a general nuisance that is hard to contain. Later gets hired to keep supes busy by crime syndicatea or other villains

>People start to think they aren't real after the 30th time Supes has tried to kill Lois Lane

The Homosexual. A villain with the power to turn anyone gay and he plans to use this power to turn the entire world gay. Superman is conflicted and doesn't know what to do because, while he feels this is wrong, turning people gay isn't a crime.

Pa Kent comes back as Manly Man. Just an all around good human that disagrees with the impact his adopted son has had on the world. Liked and respected by all that know him and cannot deny his earnest views on the world, Clark has no powers that can oppose him, and his disappointment over what superman has become cannot be punched away.

How do you beat an omnipotent being? You get them to beat themselves with doubt, guilt, and disappointment in themselves.

Damn half beat me to it.

I want Space Warlocks ™

A planet of alien warlocks with their own deity, idk let's call it something simple and stupidly outlandish like Grotimax or something.

Their deity tasks a small cult of them, a set of triplets called the Triumvirate of Grotimax to spread seeds of his power to as many planets as they can so he may be the god of all world's eventually. They move almost in unison and speak so as well. They are gifted pretty substantial magic power but have to retain their psychic connection to Grotimax to retain this power meaning they have to be only so many planets away from any place where they place the "seeds" or their home planet where Grotimax is confined partial out of tune with reality at the planets core.

When they come to Earth they'll have established a "beachhead" on Mars with a seed there. When Superman fights them it'll also be a Martian Manhunter crossover story as well.

One of the brothers seemingly dies in the efforts, the two remain trapped on Earth with no connection to their deity anymore and very far from home. They escape custody of course and seek a teacher in Earth magic so they may seek revenge.

The other brother doesn't actually die and manages to escape home where he goes to amass the people to go to war with Superman for their slights against their god. Set up for future story with more villains of that race and powerset.

Supes has great villains
Brainiac
Metallo
Lex Luthor
Mongol
Bizarro
Mr. Mxyzgkdhdpwnp
Etc. a good mix of physical and cerebral threats

Sounds very Silver Age

Helspont is already a thing.

An alien powerhouse who says Superman's full of bullshit when he says he's not interfering with humanity. He accuses Superman of selecting for specific traits and behaviors through his heroing and wants to stop him. A single person version of that time the Guardians of the Universe accused Superman of it in the silver age. This villain stops Superman using his powers to shape humanity but is not hostile, so he spends a lot of time in dinguise as a coworker at the daily planet discussing the matter with Clark, also to keep an eye on him. When Superman says ''this is a job for Superman'' the villain says, ',and it's my job to stop you''. Superman has to use guile and sometimes might to work around him

Good Guy Bob - A good guy named Bob that develops a time machine and goes back in time, stopping big tragedies, like the Holocaust and the Bengal Famine from happening. However, this fucks up the present timeline and puts the fabric of reality in danger, so Superman must go back in time and make the Holocaust happen

Nah, it leads to an entire internet subculture of freaks who think Lois Lane is dead and has been replaced by

A bit intentional on my part. Superman stories need some of that zaniness.

Don't forget Toyman :)

That's 80s Luthor

Just throw him into our world. He'd have millions of "villains"

>hurr where are the girl supermans?
>hurr why arent you promoting lgbt
>durr why arent you stopping the muslims in the middle east
>boo agoo why arent you proving to everyone that the world is flat
>im so fat, can you pick up that spoon for me
And thats not counting the msm who's going to be slandering him for not getting on their morning talkshows or the govt trying to paint him as a bad guy because he wont become their soldier

A guy who is reasonably powerful and his powers have a wide range meaning Superman needs to think and track him down. You could even use Clark Kent with this

I once had the idea of re-interpreting The Prankster as this kinda anti-LexCorp anarchist character who wants to take down Luthor by humiliating him.

My origin idea was that Oswald Loomis was an operator of the trains or monorail or whatever that Luthor built for the city. The trains were automated, but had operators just to oversee everything. After a dangerous incident where the train de-railed, Loomis was blamed in order to hide a flaw in the trains themselves that LexCorp knew of. He wasn't held criminally liable, but was disgraced.

Loomis resurfaces to get his vengeance as a prankster and saboteur who targets Luthor.

Villain can control/inhabit anyone’s body so Superman can’t capture him or retaliate without harming an innocent person

Is an extra dimensional imp godlike?

Villain can short out all cognitive function of anyone around him for a brief time, making it seem as though he appears and disappears instantly

Villain can manipulate density of matter, making Superman too light to cause any damage or so heavy that he falls through the ground

Proletariat- A Soviet soldier who was part of cold war super hero creation trials. He was the sole success of the project. Impact and injury cause him to split into duplicates with no such injuries. His clones share thoughts, and are created with duplicates of simple items on his person, like his skin tight costume and simple weapons, usually his sledgehammer. But the more duplicates are out at a time, the more strained his mind is, and the less intelligence and precision each can make. When his heart rate and adrenaline subside, the clones recombine. Put on ice by the USSR government until he would be most needed, he was forgotten about until modern day.

Now he is unfrozen in modern day, in a world that seems to have gone insane, compared to his memories of the 50s. And, for the sake of the people, and for the idea of a country that no longer exists, Proletariat must destroy the symbol of the modern age, Superman.

Sounds interesting. Isn't part of Superman's image that he embodies the "hard day's work for a hard day's pay" ideal?

I was going for a psuedo sympathetic villain. He doesn't want to hurt innocents, and isn't out for personal gain. But he is a soldier that came directly, in his perspective, from a different time. Now everything is confusing and different and overwhelming. So he is the kind of villain that other smarter villains can easily manipulate against heroes.

Was thinking something like him at least. Energy manipulating type that can amp up their physical abilities to kryptonian levels. But then it's really hard to have a super powerful warlord from space then explain just why the GLC has not bothered with them.

A black man.

Parasite, when not done as a disgusting vile Lovecraftian creature works for him. A normal crook that depowers him and goes to rob banks.

You want an original one? It honestly doesn't matter because the few superviallins Supes faces are more antagonistic, with the exception of Brainiac and Doomsday being a one-note gimmick to boost comic sales. Supes as a character is far more suited to face antagonistic forces that want to either be on the wrong side of the law or just mess with him for a laugh. Making a super serious for Superman is stupid. Something like that would fit Supergirl, Powergirl and Kon before becoming random Kryptonian #19558798 since they are not concerned with being a symbol, a good example etc.

goku

Prankster always seemed like the laziest and lowest level of the wacky crazy clown/gag villains. Someone for Superman needs to step up their game more than Joker or Trickster.

They need ridiculous over the top, city destroying level jokes and gadgets. Nuclear powered handbuzzers, molecular disruption laser pointers, invisible forcefield generator for mime boxes, dimensional gateway back pocket for hiding a garage full of weapons and hammers, portable anvil generator, hovering programmable white gloves, teleporting pirate cannon, and portable hole generator.

I would rather have something like Majin Buu. Semi magical thing that is a facet of the universe that shows up and causes damage every few thousand years. Is as strong and fast as a kryptonian, but too damn squishy and stretchy to punch, and he just heals from everything without a scratch.

Someone who shunts all sorts of damage and harm to people in a large proximity. He's holding people hostage without trying, and taking him to prison is also troubling.

A guy who tries to force Superman into situations where he HAS to kill, but Superman always figures out how to bypass killing anybody.
Similarly, there's an episode in the 50's tv series where, as a bet, an eccentric man shows up at daily planet office with bombs strapped to his body threatening to blow up everybody unless Superman sat still with him and let a burglary happen without intervening. I thought the episode dark compared to others. So a villain who specializes in stuff like that. But maybe they don't make stories like that anymore, because they don't want to inspire real-life psychos.

A discovery is made... The planet itself has been producing "antibodies" against the foreign invader from Krypton for decades. The defense takes form in the sentiments and actions of those born since his arrival. The planet Earth is seen to be fighting the alien infection via cultural and psychological evolution of humanity itself.

Long story short, Superman existing at all is causing an increase in "villains", and the process is both accelerating and refining this change in man. The root cause of many ills of the modern world is shown to be the alien seeking to aide it.

Dammit, I was gonna have a sentient social network, hellbent on ruining Superman's life so it can take over the world, but this is much better.

Ditko-nian, Objectivist Question as the antithesis to Superman. Superman helps everyone, Question helps who he wants to. Superman has a no kill rule because he doesnt want to set the precedent, Question is judge, jury, and executioner. Superman criticizes Question for his methods - Question tells Superman that his methods only work because he isn't a human.

A villain for Superman? Whoever is making my world a tyrant hungry world of bastards yearning for a fathers touch. Who ever or whatever makes street culture a parade of Honkers begging to get kicked in the face. Have Clark Kent do an investigation on the relationship between literacy and penile length. Between chastity and birth prefrence. I'd name him Eduardo Broche and give him a symbiotic that stretches into everyone's mind like Randall Dowling.

Man Man, a bank Robber with the only power of de powering everyone around him and nullifying any powers based attacks that come in contact with him.
Superman would need to figure out how to deal with him as a normal person and not a super being.

That is a great idea for a villain, the only problem is that it would probably gets solved by an inspiring speech.

What did they do, exactly? I remember an author accidentally brought them to life or something, what was their deal?

How about a villain that is a sentient internet website that can alter reality based on the complains of the people that write on it?

So the moment somebody say Superman should be more violent Superman feels his body move on his own and starts using extreme force. The moment somebody complains that superman should be a queer woman of color Lois wakes up discovering a naked black lady next to her.

A grand manipulator/illusionist that successfully manages to ruin Superman's public image and credibility. His schemes would even have some Justice League members questioning Superman's role in society.
Think of it as a mix between the Riddler and Misterio.
Some of you would probably suggest that Lex Luthor's played that part already, but I'm thinking of dialing it up to 11, to where Superman himself starts getting delusional and unsure of who he really is.
At this point I'm more interested in Kal's psychology rather than displays of god-like power.

Sounds like a good idea, except Supes has a way of dealing with ghosts too.

A lot of good replies ITT, but this is the best I've seen so far. You throw this "Nullifier" character in any setting, and it's bound to be interesting.

A villainous clone of Jimmy Olsen with internal cybernetic enhancements and all of Jimmy's memories. When he's introduced he'll reveal he's replaced the real Jimmy for some time and has him locked away somewhere while he slowly takes apart Clark's life from the inside.

A sleazy tabloid reporter that has the ability to sense super powers

holy shit what comic is that?

Someone who commits crime on a small enough scale for Superman not to consider them a monster, but is enough of a sociopath to constantly and consistently spit on Superman's "there's always hope" moral compass.

someone that can instantly teleport anywhere they want. only person fast enough to catch him is the flash and he teleports flash into a black hole. everyone is just trying to talk to him to get him to stop, but teleporter guy just goes around stealing and killing to his hearts content.

its not like he beats anyone but basically its just a draw between him and sups

Why the hell did you use Batman as an example of someone his power would work on?

That could work

It's Lex Luthor but instead of convincing the public that Supes is a menace he's trying to fuck Lois Lane.

Alright villain is hired to cover up stuff for the mob/lex luthor getting rid of guns, people, overall evidence by storing them in a pocket dimension that he opens by embracing the object/person that has a limit of what can be stored there and that's how superman/clark kent becomes aware of him story can be about clark investigating to find lois who was taken and then something something superman gets trapped and has to use his heat beam and ice breath to create more matter in the void to over load it and it could be kinda flashy with the hugger getting steamy as fuck while under oath at the court case and then all the evidence spills out of him

A 6 year old kid, a joy to be around, would never hurt a fly. However, his mere existence is tearing the universe apart. The only way to prevent this is to make him suffer eternally as he needs to be held inside some sort of mumbo-jumbo mega electricity field.

But that's Superman's ethos! That's the whole idea of his character, that sure you can punch and fight and beat up the bad guys but until the bad guy changes their mind and is shown how they are in the wrong, the fight won't end. How at the end of the day it is the speech, the words, the heart that make your enemy stop fighting you. Delusion is something that can't be laser blasted away but requires inner strength and compassion to get over. Superman is all about getting people to see the goodness and greatness within themselves.

A suicidal man that wants to go out in style. but keeps failing to kill himself because of superman. develops some kind of immortality by accident and swears vengeance on superman

>Lawyer: Mr. Sansweet didn't asked to be saved. Mr. Sansweet didn't want to be saved. And the injuries received from Superman's "actions", so-called, causes him daily pain.
>Superman: Hey, I saved your life!
>Sansweet: You didn't save my life! You ruined my death!

No reason to not try and make some more, keep things fresh.

A balding incel in his 30s who has never had a girlfriend and is unemployed and spends all day on the internet trolling people and downloading cuck porn intercepts a government email detailing a plan to build a machine to mentally control Superman in case of a emergency, so the incel builds the mind control device, because he hates Superman with an extreme passion, Superman represents the ultimate CHAD to this incel, and if he can get control of Superman, he can get Superman to get him a 10/10 women and touch her vagina. He builds the machine and finds out he can actually transfer minds with Superman, so the incel becomes Superman and Superman becomes the incel.

Damn, that would be the best. Superman vs bad PR would be a good arc. I feel Superman reflecting on why he bothers and coming to the conclusion that he does what he can because he can and thus he must would finally explain to a bunch of neckbeards why Superman is the best superhero of all-time.

Batman is a genius detective. Throw the Nullifier around him and he becomes just a cop in a bat costume.

Name: Luck
Power: Inflict bad luck
Character: Luck is a superman fanboy. He looks up to superman so much because of his misreable childhood. He first met superman when he was invloved in a bank robbery. Because of his luck, he was thought to be the mastermind by Superman which captured him and hand him to the police before he could explain himself. Crushed by having his idol falsely accuse him, he started justifying to himself that the current Superman is a clone and not the real Superman.

A villain that just kills innocent people and tells him he would stop doing it if he kills him.

That's not how power nullification works.

I'd like to see a villain (it could just be Lex) whose control over the press makes him untouchable. His extremely well crafted smear campaigns tear apart the lives of any super hero that opposes him. He also needs a dead man's switch which poses a major threat that is well known among supers. The reason for this setup is i want to see a villain that Superman is useless against but, Clark Kent can defeat by doing world class reporting.

A dude like Red Skull that was literally a Nazi, got voted into office as president, stirs up divisive bullshit and spends his free time pissing off Superman by sending him on weird missions, only to tell him later what the real purpose was (usually something nasty).

Would be fun to see Superman have to put up with a president that the people theoretically support, but that is morally awful.
