Jacob Lewis
John Jones
Ian Roberts
Kid Miracleman
Lucas Garcia
Thanks for all that body horror, One Below All.
Henry Kelly
Earth Mover scared the shit out of me when I was a wee lad.
Blake Phillips
THAT issue of Miracleman is one of the most beautiful pieces of horror fiction I’ve ever read in my entire life.
Hudson Williams
Levi Wilson
Jonathan Thomas
Clayface episodes were hard to watch for me when I was a kid.
Bentley Howard
This
Jacob Williams
Ryder White
Source on the comic?
Luke Jackson
Jane Doe
Logan Hall
What is it with Dee and diners?
Ethan Ward
It's a Hellboy comic. Strange Places, I think? The story has Hellboy adventuring in the Appalachian Mountains.
Luke Adams
Hellboy: The Crooked Man by Richard Corben
Nathaniel Butler
Proffessor Pyg
Turns men intro transsexual gynoids without their consent
Ethan Thomas
The Thousand by Garth Ennis
He swallowed the spider that gave Peter Parker his powers and became a sentient colony of spiders.
Eli Sullivan
She hot
Liam Ross
Jason Russell
Fucking Pyg is the most genuinely disturbing Batman villain, and they stuck him in a cartoon for kids.
Chase Parker
Hudson Jenkins
I don’t have arachnophobia, but Jesus Christ someone call Johnny Storm.
Leo Hernandez
On that note, Rag Doll!
And the live action version has got to be seen to be believed: youtu.be
Caleb Smith
Evan Price
is that the same guy from the conjuring movies/mama?
Carter Howard
Daniel Rogers
The episode where they meet the old doom patrol that required assisted living because of him really got me, and the park thing.
Josiah Murphy
Carnage
Sebastian Johnson
This spooky boy got me into valiant.
Owen Rivera
No, but he was in the worst season of Channel Zero, while also being the best thing about that season. He’s basically perfect casting for Rag Doll.
Ayden King
spooky spooky boi
Kevin Garcia
Thats freaky
Aaron Morales
Benjamin Foster
Scarecrow can be pretty creepy
Austin Peterson
Joseph Butler
Also this
youtu.be
Ethan Lopez
Jaxson Barnes
Click on this gif, man. Rag Doll’s actor has no joints
Dominic Sullivan
Grayson Mitchell
Vic’s plot is one of the best things about rewatching he season, because then you can really notice all the fuckery that Nobody engages in that’s invisible on the first watch.
Wyatt Morgan
Dear lord
Jackson Howard
James Ward
Spot really is the perfect assassin.
Angel Thompson
It's mostly played for laughs, but something about Generic Man just skeeves me the fuck out. The idea of being reduced to a basic abstraction of a human being with no will of your own is terrifying.
Camden Parker
Another creep I believe do make perfect assassins. A invisible, intangible master hacker that murders you by phasing a bomb inside your chest.
Jaxon Morris
At least he generally only targets soulless corporate executives.
Benjamin Gutierrez
Oh, is that that dude from that Swamp Thing story arc? Where it starts off the dead guy killing everyone with a strong connection to the Green and it progresses to the apocalypse happening? Yeah, that guy was disturbing by how he killed.
Austin Miller
Ian Edwards
Damn, that's actually pretty damn creepy. I have to give them credit for that.
Christian Cox
he also fucked his dad
Josiah White
Caleb Gutierrez
Oh, I forgot about dude. Wasn't he permanently killed off?
Jace Baker
Noah Russell
I don't see how you all find this scary? Don't you guys read occult guides, play horror games, or watch horror films?
Nathaniel Moore
He's not necessarily the scariest villain, but Violator/Clown is one of my all time favorite villains simply for being a perverted disgusting scheming monster. Everything he does as the Clown is filthy and vile and much he can accomplish in the form, and yet underneath the skin is something far more sinister.
I guess I just like goof characters with "I'm not laughing anymore" moments
Kayden Fisher
Liam Jackson
I only find RL and death scary, no fiction scares me anymore but I still like it because I like macaber things.
Carson Mitchell
Telling someone how something is or isn’t scary is like explaining an absurdist joke on logical lines. It doesn’t work.
Levi Brooks
When this fucker possesed doctors in the middle of surgery and forced them to cut Dani for fun I was pretty disturbed
William Myers
you know the mobsters, the clowns, and evil doctors are one thing if you live in gotham, but this shit here would make me leave immediately
Sebastian Green
Ey that's not so-
>the fingers
ok that's weird.
Otherwise, I seem to recall this guy from The Batman?
Tyler Gomez
He was creepiest in Secret Six.
Nathaniel Rodriguez
you just aren't imaginative enough
we're adults so we're not really scared, we know its fiction but thinking about some of these characters and concepts created can be unsettling if you think about it
Luke Turner
Exactly this. Like, imagine how some guy in Metropolis would react if he was told the details about the threat posed by Anton Arcane.
>So, there’s a lich that has made himself the king of all rotting things, and is also a Nazi, and he wants to fuck his niece. Oh, and he wants to kill everything so that he can control everything.
Like, that’s gonna ruin that guy’s fucking week.
Liam Reed
>mazel tov
fuckin kek
Brayden Martin
Kevin Thomas
Oh wow, the show actually did something right for once
Benjamin Gonzalez
He controls blood. He's basically a giant heart metahuman
Blake Baker
What the fuck is it with modern Batman and body horror? Between this guy and Dollmaker, fml.
Jeremiah Young
And Jane Doe; she doesn’t have skin!
Evan Young
Check out what the actor can do. Guy can go completely limp like he doesn’t have joints, and can just about turn his head completely around
Ryan Hill
Yeah I saw him on America's Got Talent. Cool thing about shows like that is you don't even have to win, you just have to be good enough to get seen on television and offers come to you.
Nicholas Howard
Jesus. How is that even possible? I mean, you can't survive without skin, you would have constant infections.
Brayden Turner
It’s okay. She can just wear other people’s skins! If she isn’t present and accounted for in Arkham, there’s never a one hundred percent chance that she isn’t some random person in Gotham.
Ethan Wright
I honsetly loved the designs
Leo Rodriguez
I guess in a world where people fly it's possible that this person doesn't go into septic shock in less than 24 hours.
Logan Johnson
A fan theory I heard was that she may have made a deal with some demons to become like that. In her debut in Arkham: Living Hell Etrigan and others visit the place, and she wasn't seen again until it was in her current form, so maybe she made some sort of deal off-panel. Killer Moth did the same thing for a time when he was Charaxes.
Austin Evans
General Forteus comes to mind.
He's going to completely destroy his brain and body trying to kill Hulk.
Ethan Nelson
Liam Howard
Why have I only now realized that Fassbender should be the Corinthian.
Alexander Howard
Curse of the gif my dude
Caleb Taylor
What he did to Cyborg in Episode 12 was fucking monstrous and scary.
David Wood
Fuck I hope they make Netflix's Sandman a stylistic masterpiece and not cheap as shit like Krypton. Because of Goyer's involvement...I'm worried.
Mason Kelly
Isaac Gutierrez
Eli King
Owen Green
Isn't that the old couple from When The Wind Blows?
Chase Ramirez
Fortunately, yes
Levi Hill
Tyler Martinez
Parker Collins
Christopher Hernandez
He sure likes ripping his face open.
Luke Price
that's actually a pretty cool design
Gabriel Brown
source, please??
Oliver Ortiz
Thats true, but then you keep going and explain that the evil lich is being constantly fought by an immortal avatar of nature and life that has complete and absolute control over all plants, oh and then you both look out the window and see Superman fly by, and then suddenly things don't actually seem so bad anymore.
Like if Anton just by himself existed in our world it would be beyond horrifying, but in the context of a superhero world, this isn't that big of a thing, because there are equally powerful forces working against him, and maybe you have even shaken hands with Superman at a charity benefit or watched Wonder Woman rip a literal demon from Hell completely in half on live TV and you know that you've got heroes on your side and you aren't so worried any more.
Henry Cruz
Eli Evans
>vampire t-rex
I was born to view this jpg
Jaxson Martinez
What the fuck
Josiah Adams
I think it was the Buffy comics, but Buffy vampires are actually blood demons created by Maloker, last of the Old Ones, spilling his blood into human hosts. Is that Kenny?
William Cook
I'm pretty sure thats from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics and is the origin of the vampires.
Ayden Evans
Vampire t-rex needs a name. And a cape. And maybe a black vest with a red shirt underneath...
Mason Roberts
Oh wait, no. That issue was the comic adaptation of an in-universe movie based on the events of a previous comic plot arc. So that's based on Kenny, but the information presented is inaccurate.
Grayson James
Josiah Brown
I mean, like I said, there's still a demon t-rex. He just didn't have volcanoes of blood.
Alexander Adams
Hulk is the jobbest there is
Nathan Peterson
It's just not the same without the volcanoes of blood...
Logan Watson
is this that devil dinosaur character from marvel
Matthew Adams
>Fucking Pyg is the most genuinely disturbing Batman villain, and they stuck him in a cartoon for kids.
to be fair the Beware The Batman version of Pyg has basically nothing in common with the comic's version of Pyg besides the name and the fact that they both wear Pig masks
Michael Evans
Something about Freak felt out of place for being a Spider-Man villain
Tyler Cooper
thanks for reminding me that Brand New Day exists
Noah Howard
This entire story-line was filler, but it was also the best Hellboy ever was.
Grayson Murphy
Christian Walker
Ian Lee
>Goyer
Well, it’s fucked.
Michael Allen
The Ten Seconders
Oliver Davis
Honestly she'd be much creepier if everything was normal but she was missing a nose.
Landon Jones
>When you suddenly realize this development is a complete ripoff of when Wade Eiling took over Shaggyman’s body during Morrison’s JLA run
Huh, no wonder I feel so under hyped for the next issue.
Daniel Stewart
Cool. But I guess his powers is just too lethal for joining the Rogues.
Andrew Allen
Depends on writer sometimes, but he's given me a bunch of creepy vibes before and obviously the design is just excellent.
Camden Phillips
FUCK YEAH LAD, ESPECIALLY THE ORIGIN EPISODE WHEN THEY POURED THE SHIT ON HIM. IT WAS A FUCKING NIGHTMARE FUEL. MY GRANDPA LOOOOVED BATMAN ANIMATED, AS HE GREW UP READING BATMAN COMICS AND HE WAS LIKE "FUCK YEAH, THIS SHIT IS AWESOME, DID YOU SEE IT GRANDSON?" WHILE I WAS LIKE "OMG WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING TO HIM
Oliver Price
Bruce Banner's distorted memories of his abusive father
Henry Jenkins
well deserved death
Andrew Hall
so what's his deal?
Zachary Lee
So... a shitty Cthulhu ripoff?
Connor Taylor
Angel Butler
Angel Sullivan
im not a dickfag but I really wish most of those villains from morrison's run would have stayed purely as rogues for Dick Grayson somehow.
Jose Sanders
Empowered has some top tier scary villains, this fucker and Death monger. Mindfuck's brother is probably up there too, we'll see on the next volume next month.
Landon Gray
You mean empowered is more than cheesecake and bad jokes?
Hunter Howard
Zachary Hernandez
is this from the next issue? I've not been able to find it.
David Edwards
Julian Fisher
Dominic Brooks
Connor Baker
For me it's Billy Kincaid.
Kevin Morgan
Whatever the fuck this was.
Wyatt Richardson
Gavin Young
Hudson Peterson
Robert Thompson
assistant chan looks cute
Alexander Morris
He and Pyg would be best of friends.
Ethan Hughes
This guy right here
Jayden Ross
Horror games and movies are not scary either.
Ian Carter
I used to think so too after years of being desensitized watching cartel videos and what not, but your surroundings play a part in this too.
I recently watched a "scary" movie in a hotel restaurant all by myself, at night, with the lights turned off and it was a very unique experience. Definitely felt fright for the first time in a long while.
Tyler Richardson
Obvious, but when done well.
Liam Butler
Wait... did they make ANOTHER ginger black?
Jayden Taylor
See, Hollywood? This right here is an example of casting the best guy for the role regardless of race. Yes, he's black, but he's also a fucking living special effect.
Wyatt Phillips
Source?
Nothing, it's just that this particular story (whatever it is) refers '24 hours'.
Christopher Gray
Fortean.
Also the face design is derived from Zenith.
Yeah, but he only wants to kill you. That's all.
Aaron Allen
yeah, nothing is scarier than your mother, we know it already
Hudson Anderson
Odd how Perpetua did not refer those monsters.
They seemed far more in line with her desires.
Superman would find him pretty quickly.
...so they did. Huh.
Lincoln Davis
For me it's Jamie Braddock, insane omega level mutant brother of Cap Britain and Psylocke who can manipulate reality.
Aiden Evans
Mad Jim Jaspers
Something about such a lowlife creep having control of all reality scares me.
Ryder Sanchez
Reality warping madmen have become a bit cliche
Camden James
>Something about such a lowlife creep having control of all reality scares me.
Not religious then, I am guessing.
Lincoln Bell
I like his design
Nathan Martin
Jim is a Sir though and was the Primier Minister though(on thr other hand if we look at the current Premier Minister... ok)
A fun and good one though.
Gabriel Allen
Sauce?
Noah Carter
Prime Minister.
The word you're looking for is Prime Minister.
Though I guess I haven't read that far into the series to know if there are any Premier Ministers.
Nathan Ramirez
I love the tubes of butter, not sure what that's for.
Dylan Foster
Sometimes, you have to racebend because they're just the best actor for the role.
Matthew Jones
Disgusting is not scary.
Brayden Hall
Something something Luther Strode.
Benjamin Nguyen
Any of the Supergods.
Nathan Anderson
I assume he wants to fatten up the pigs. I just don't know why.
Bentley Thompson
I'm fine with that, it's when they do it on purpose for political reasons I can't stand. I actually liked Fishburne as Perry, would have loved to have heard him say "my black ass" or something based.
Brandon Campbell
Ooo good one.
Colton Mitchell
Extra fat to keep the brains alive during the procedure? Brains are mostly fat.
Robert Mitchell
>Source?
Morrison's JL #50
Jordan Adams
The one that’s really stayed with me was the Palmiotti Hex issue where the frontierswomen were forcibly turning men into pigs. Kind of a reverse Professor Pyg situation
Leo Perez
Interesting, what issue?
Carson Long
Captain Cadaver.
I'm not sure if it was his monstrous Nosferatu/Gollum appearance, the comic-con cosplay costume, or his interior monologue casting himself as a heroic, suave lady's man while he was hunting women, slaughtering everyone in his path, but Cap Cad was the perfect mix of pathos and terror. Like a Kiwifarms Lolcow cast as The Shape in Halloween.
Jeremiah Thompson
Issue 26, but like I gotta take the chance to just say read all of their Hex, it’s fantastic and a lot of fun.
Matthew Hill
wasn't spiders-man based on him?
Luis Gray
God I wish they'd use him more often like this. Especially with the hole in the face and not saying a word.
Cooper Phillips
The Sleepman.
A guy with a bag on his head who rapes and kills superheroines.
Edgy before edgy was even a thing.
Wyatt Bailey
Morrison's last issue was 41. But now I am wondering whether I should pick up the rest.
Xavier Hughes
I kept asking the same question when people all over the internet couldn't shut up about how terrifying Kilgrave is.
I still don't get what people see in him that is so scary.
Jaxson Garcia
This page spooked me pretty good the first time I read it.
Anthony Bailey
Do they eat them too?
Charles Williams
Hunter Rose/Grendel.
I don't think any fictional characters except maybe Golgo 13 and The Zero Assassin have ever given the guarantee of certain death like this guy. If you become ensnared in his web of affairs and you're not one of his slaves, you're already dead.
Mind by Machiavelli, body by Baryshnikov, fought both Batman and The Shadow to a standstill, and Argent, the only madman powerful enough to oppose him, patently was no match for him, could not save you from him, and would yet happily kill you to get at him.
Benjamin Harris
Willie Pete.
Some kind of fire elemental who fucks superheroes and villains in the eye because normal humans burn up too fast.
Freeze rays don't work on him, and a telepath once remarked that his mind is an artificial construction, rather than a diseased human one, whatever that means.
Angel Hall
Dr blasphemy always made me feel uncomfortable. He’s probably the character that I love the most from bratpack
Angel Roberts
What the fuck was his problem?
Jason Lee
Colonel Glass.
A healing factor the equal of Wolverines, and a complete control of any glass.
He raped Mecha Maid's mother, was probably her father, and threw her as a baby into the air as a distraction to kill White Heron.
Isaiah Campbell
The Heckler.
Hunter Garcia
Cthulhu + the Space Jockey from Alien.
Adam Johnson
He looks so utterly bored with this all.
Ian Edwards
The King-Of-All-Tears.
The ultimate boogeyman, part Lovecraftian otherdimensional horror, part Hellraiser Cenobite, part H.R. Giger insectoid disease farm.
Runs the government, the police, the military, the schools, the television and the newspapers. Beat him and he just folds himself back through time to attack you in the future.
Jordan Evans
That art is so fucking awful compared to the previous examples.
Jeremiah Diaz
At least Flamingo. He would make a great exclusive Nightwing villain.
Landon Anderson
How long did Joker go without a face?
Wyatt Nguyen
Bruce Wayne’s ancestor from hundreds of years ago. Was in a satanic cult that successfully summoned a demon entity Darkseid had attached to Bruce. Hurt is driven completely mad, but is immortal, invincible and resourceful due to his incredibly long life. To make it worse, Darkseid is constantly eating away from Hurt’s insides due to the omega effect. Just the same, Hurt is going to take Damian Wayne’s soul, and convince the president in twenty years to drop a nuke on Gotham.
Connor Jones
>whatever the fuck that guy is
>quoting Steinbeck
I love comic books so much
Jayden Foster
this was fucking stupid, you fags are too easily impressed
Colton Thomas
Always thought he was more funny than scary in a dark comedy way
Evan Morgan
Fishburne as Perry White would’ve been godly if the script was written with two giant hams pressing down on a keyboard over and over. Like, can you imagine the sort of look he’d give you if you weren’t going to meet deadline?
Ian Clark
>implying that they were the villains
Benjamin Perez
god that book is so fantastic
Matthew Miller
You have to have a life worth living to understand existential horror.
Austin Baker
I perfectly understand existential horror, I see nothing scary in that particular character.
Andrew Kelly
>You mean empowered is more than cheesecake and bad jokes?
Yes. And the idea of being skullfucked to death by a horny fire elemental is extremely unpleasant.
Brandon Brown
that movie changed me
Cooper Rivera
>there is nothing scary and about petty, childish, and violent rapist with mind control powers
Gabriel Martinez
It's one of the few "being a hero sucks" books where being a villain sucks just as bad, if not worse.
Jonathan Rogers
Yes. There is nothing scary about that just like there's nothing scary about most shit posted here
Julian Hernandez
>there's no difference between shitposting and a psychopath taking away your free will, making you into a robot and forcing you to do anything he wants you to do
Gabriel Rogers
Wow, so it is him. I disagree with it being the worst season though, mainly because of his performance. The ending was full however.
Chase Bell
That he had been created. And was aware of the flow of time. Apparently it made him nihilistic.
In his defense, he had been created as a super-weapon - and they named him after the Muslim equivalent of the Anti-Christ.
>TFW these were simply the universe equivalent of puberty zits
There is nothing scary about a sadist who can make you do whatever he wants?
Liam Davis
He was literally the only reason that I kept watching, because the entire cast had gone swimming in a lake with brain eating amoebas. He was fucking incredible throughout, though. Finding out that was an actual person and not a convoluted special effect is mind blowing.
David Scott
Yes, otherwise Freddy Krueger would still be scary. There has to be something more for actual horror to exist.
Adrian Wood
jeez someone get the KKK
Charles Reyes
Not read it since release, but he takes the form of your worst nightmare. He comes around every 100 years or so to kill off this person called the Geomancer? But there's a royal knight who's immortal & has to defeat it every time, but he fails every single time. This generation of Geomancer grew up with a nightmare about a crooked man like magician or something. Sorry, I can't remember it for the life of me. Not read it since release.
Mason White
Carter Reyes
The reason why Krueger isn't scary anymore is because they made him into a clown. Not to mention that the filmmakers didn't try to make characters that the audience could invest themselves in, and as such, could not be scared for. Meanwhile, one of the best horror movies of last year was a sequel to the original Halloween movie, that didn't add any gimmicks to Michael Meyers or do anything weird with him, they just gave us characters that we cared about and then put them in mortal danger for their lives with the only person able to protect them being a seventy year old woman with more PTSD than a sack full of snakes.
Like, have you tried to empathize more with Jessica Jones? Try to see the situation from her perspective? Or any of Kilgrave's other victims? I don't know how to explain to you that mind controlling psychopaths are incredibly dangerous and scary.
Thomas Cooper
Yes and I still feel no sense of dread from him. He's vile but I'm not scared of him like I was scared, say, of the cult in Hereditary.
I don't know, maybe something is wrong with me but I just don't see it at all.
Chase Sanders
This was cool but the sound effects ruined it: they didn't even seem to come off the guy and also please imagine how horrifying this would be if the Ragdoll was totally silent
Angel Nelson
Daniel Price
Nathaniel Brown
Dr. Herman Manglar aka Nightcrawler. Even D-Compose was scared of him.
Robert Hill
I've always wondered if there's a way to do Maxie Zeus as a legitimate, serious and scary threat.
Mason Wilson
your taste is shit and you wasted 4 image slots.
Kayden Walker
It was terrifying how monstrously stupid this idea was.
Josiah Brooks
I wish the show did stuff like this more often.
youtube.com
Joshua Moore
Owen Gonzalez
Logan Lewis
That issue was kino, it's such a shame it was a Prof. Hulk origin story. Professor Hulk sucks
Hudson Kelly
Forgot the other link
youtube.com
Owen Lopez
Use Arkham Asylum's version but with superpowers.
Adam Carter
The fact that people haven't mentioned Stormin Norman yet upsets me. Dude is one of the few villains that makes my sphincter close and want to call my immediate family to make sure they're all right. This dude literally crucifies his own employees along with impaling them and throwing them off a goddamn mountain. Imagine if he actually had a grudge against you.
Lincoln Brooks
The Immortal Enemy spawns everytime a new Geomancer comes to earth, just to totally fuck their shit up.
Brody Garcia
He implied that he jerks off in the Goblin costume he killed Gwen Stacy in, for Christ's sakes.
Henry Jackson
Jim's the real deal though. On that note....
The original terminator
Landon Moore
Fuck this guy
Jace Flores
Chase Thompson
Bill Butcher's wet dream - The perfect expression of Moore's disdain for superheroes.
'Watchmen' is a love letter by comparison.
Hudson Martin
Jaxon Peterson
Luke Hill
I love how Gaiman depicts Scarecrow as an edgy prankster that fails to even surprise people.
Carson Bennett
What about scary superheroes?
Blake Diaz
Samuel Richardson
Nicholas Cox
Nathaniel Wright
He's an annoying overrated cunt that needs to be put down for good, just like the Joker.
Brayden Watson
No one but a complete edamame slurper is going to be scared by shit written by a faggot who gets cucked by a lying Serb whore.
Oliver Miller
Yes, next Wednesday.
Carson Green
It might just scare the shit out of parents after they realize their kids are watching Pyg and before they realize it’s not their Pyg.
Easton Allen
While there are definitely similarities, I would not consider Norman to be nearly as try hard as Joker. Joker is a goddamn embarrassment in current comics. Norman is always a treat to read in any capacity. Also the duality between Norman and Goblin is significantly more interesting than whatever shit goes on within Joker. Also Osborn's funnier.
Cooper Flores
>Comic Nerd Dad is in the kitchen making snacks for his kids while they watch Beware the Batman
>Volume is up loud enough that he can hear it from the other room
>someone refers to Professor Pyg and he runs out of the kitchen ready to change the channel
>watches for a minute or two before skulking away muttering about it not being his Pyg
Jeremiah Lopez
She’s pretty weird, made me call her Auntie Mo.
Luis Williams
whats that from?
Aiden Baker
He's such a joke though.
Gavin Fisher
You just keep digging.
Henry Morris
He's a joke that will do what no other Bat-villain has done. He's totally out of his mind, and his plan is successful. Hurt killed Gotham.
Landon Howard
what series can i read about this guy in
i've never read captain britain shit
Xavier Scott
X-Men Archives Presents Captain Britain: Crooked World
Gabriel Robinson
Daniel Sullivan
>implying that's a bad thing
William Young
not scary
Andrew Morales
Oh no, not at all. Gotham deserves to be wiped off the face of the planet. Just saying that Hurt is the most successful bat villain of all.
Ethan Hughes
he's been stretched too thin at this point
i don't think he was ever 'scary' either, he was a really good villain though
Angel Watson
If the fucking incels hadn't chased Kevin Smith away from The CW, we could have had this guy instead of whoever is wearing a bag on his head this season.
Brayden Wilson
He's Bruce's ancestor if a direct line can be drawn between him and Bruce.
Luke Sanchez
Eh, I kind of feel like he's a character that really only works in print format.
Luke Garcia
Dude, Osborn is not scary.
Jackson Turner
I just watched the first episode of this and I just love how the bad guys absolutely handle things no bullshit.
Like at the end of the episode the Chtulu-looking motherfucker just comes knocking on their goddamn base instead of just hiding away in a lair like most villains did in 80s cartoons.
Definitely going to watch this all an episode a night. It's nuts, but in a good way.
Julian Turner
What's this from?
Anthony Myers
Now that's bad ass.
Aiden Adams
Casuals spewing buzzwords as to why their precious live action was ruined are not worth entertaining
Aiden Nelson
Nathaniel Miller
Spinerette
Aaron Rivera
I miss when the X-Men had to deal with the real ass horror of evil mutants. At least they never put the Shadow King in a suit.
Unless that's what's up with Xavier.
Carter Walker
I think it handles superhero satire much better than say, the Boys and Warren's sci fi background lets him explore super power concepts much better than other writers. The man can do a badass action scene and since it's a creator owned comic he can do what he likes so there are consequences. The comedy aspects make you like the characters and then, inevitably Real Bad Stuff happens, and there's a genuine sense of menace because this is an author who will kill characters if his muse tells him to
Bentley Gutierrez
The title of the thread made me think of Karnak, although he's not really a villain or a hero, he's something else.
Aiden Johnson
what MK run is this?
Nicholas Cook
Why does people love to ripoff Morrison so much? Then the fans of these same writers also shit on him for no reason. It’s just such a joke.
Kevin Murphy
I like that Pyg is the only villain that really feels insane. Every other villain has their specific quirks and mental problems, but Pyg just spews out random nonsense constantly.
Lincoln Adams
Uh, where do you get this impression Ewingheads hate Morrisonites? Ewing was influenced Morrison, without becoming a cover band like Gerard Way, Morrison doesn't exist in a vacuum either but unless you're that one weird guy on Yea Forums you wouldn't call him a "Alan Moore ripoff whose fans also shit on him for no reason".
Hunter Johnson
Anton Arcane, master of the Rot and archenemy of Swamp Thing.
Also his father-in-law technically.
Parker Reed
That's his son.
The real Rag Doll was a sociopathic cult leader/mass murderer/rapist.
Blake Cox
How many major American cities have been nuked in the DC universe? Green Lantern's city, Nightwing's and now Batman's? Shit's a bit ridiculous, don't you think? I remember when superheroes stopped the bad guy Before the death ray got fired.
James Taylor
>Casuals
>buzzwords
Elijah Ramirez
Wasn't Captain Marvel's city blown up by Mr. Mind?
Lucas Fisher
That villain would be Norman Rotrig, the Man Who Laughs AKA the French Joker.
After his mother died giving birth to him, his artist father cut his lips off, giving him a permanent smile.
Rotrig got his revenge by turning his father into "performance art", as you can see.
Joseph Taylor
He was supposed to be in season 1 but Smith thought the audience would think he was retarded, so instead we got Mr. Blank (the black bald assassin guy).
Samuel Lewis
I think the large reason why people don't find Osborn "scary" per say is because they've never had an actual enemy like him. Someone who doesn't care about financial gain. Someone that doesn't care about world domination (at least not most of the time). Someone that doesn't care about personal advancement. This is someone who wants to torment you. Who wants to make your every waking existence agony. Someone that is a constant companion in the sense they are a humor tumor destroying every part of your life.
This person is a sickness. They are a disease. They are a drain in every sense of the word. And they are SMART. They are so fucking smart it will terrify you. They will learn where you work and stalk it mercilessly (like he did Peter). He will find out who your friends are an infiltrate your social circle only to destroy it from the inside. He will learn all your secrets and insecurities and prey on them. Not to kill you. There's no fun in that. They want to see you suffer. They want to see a human cinder and you're the dry wood. Osborn is not scary because of his overt appearance (although the Goblin costume helps), he's scary because of his personal investment. I've had a stalker once, and knowing they've been in my personal space when I wasn't there and did god knows what is one of the most unsettling feelings I've ever had in my entire life.
Zachary Clark
Chase Harris
What makes Pyg fun is that Morrison did a lot of research on schizophrenia, so that he could pull it off well and not just have him be another CUH-RAZEE Arkham inmate.
>Pyg just spews out random nonsense constantly.
The other fun thing is that Pyg ISN'T spouting random nonsense and is Morrison going full Shakespeare with having a crazy person's babbles be prophetic, or make reference to clever shit the author's trying. Comics Alliance did really great annotated reads of Morrison's work on Batman, and basically every one of Pyg's lines has references to ancient mythology (Tiamat this and Tiamat that (Tiamat being a dragon that destroys the world, which is, itself, a reference to Darkseid as Tiamat is an evil god whose desire is complete darkness)) Hindu mysticism (tohu va bohu is another reference to apocalyptic mythology) and then there's some childhood development shit thrown in with the Pyg's wireframe mother (see the Harry Harlow's (who Pyg ALSO references in several places) experiments on infant monkeys, and be prepared to have nightmares)).
Pyg is Morrison at his absolute best.

Grow some fucking balls. Stalkers aren’t scary. They’re just weirdos who follow you around. Deal with them just like everyone else. Jesus Christ
Boo boo a single pair of twins died. Compared to everyone else posted this is a drop in the pond. A 3/10 loony would be scarier than this faggot. What are you gonna post next? Black Manta?
Cameron Perry
It was a four season long story that stretched out creepypastas into 10 hour long episodes. First three were pretty good, fourth was...not...but none of them have anything beyond a passing resemblance with their origin, barring the first season, which is easily the best of the four and easy to recommend.

Glad someone has some goddamn sense. Half of these are scary, the other half make me laugh at thus collection of posters. Like, have they ever read an actual comic that is scary? My guess is no because Yea Forums doesn’t bother to read comics. This thread is the definition of embarrassment. The only villain that even registers on my radar is Doctor Fate and even he is shit outside of unconsciousness.
Tyler Brooks
Huh, that actually sounds interesting. Thank for letting me know about this.
Elijah Morgan
No sweat. Oh yeah, and the third season is really fucking weird and sort of amazing in its own way, but has nothing to do with the Search and Rescue series which is a shame, regardless of how good the 'adaptation' was.

It's an Invunche, a creature from Chilean myth.

The creature walks on one foot or on three feet (actually one leg and two hands) because one of its legs is attached to the back of its neck. The invunche cannot talk, and communicates only by guttural, rough and unpleasant sounds.
It's from Alan Moore's run

Caleb Reyes
It's also not apocalyptic unless you want to really stretch the term. It refers to the state of the Universe before the six days of creation and is today a slang term for a chaotic mess. Some modern Jewish thinkers have posited this being a reference to the circumstances surrounding the Big Bang.

The original Shredder was genuinely terrifying. Before he was portrayed as Cobra Commander/Joke Darth Vader, he was basically Bruce Lee covered in razor blades, and had no problem with fridging your wife before fighting you.

Basically anything by Junji Ito. Reading his comics are unnerving because If just how screwed your are. There’s no fighting it. Whatever happens happens.

Dude did the entire movie on his fucking knees. Same thing with Moulin Rouge. For whatever reason, when Leguizamo is playing a short person, he doesn’t go for special effects. Underappreciated actor.
Xavier Russell
Not totally sure what’s going on there, but the image reminds me of the stage version of Little Shop of Horrors, where Audrey II didn’t just eat people, she absorbed their souls. In the stage version, those little pods that provide backup singing, are the heads of everyone she’s eaten.
Lucas Anderson
>he wouldn't take a chance with a skinless qt
Levi Ramirez
His debut had a pretty good mad scientist/town with a dark secret vibe that could have been used more in future appearances, so he has the potential to be, yes. In fact, the internet should make technopath villains like him more dangerous.
Matthew Turner
it's kind of like that
once he kills someone, he absorbs them into his shell which keeps them alive for as long as he lives, which presuming that he is immortal, keeps them in eternal pain and suffering.
you can kill him but that will only kill everyone on his shell in the process
Christian Sanders
Forgot my image, though I’m sure everyone on this board knows who Audrey II is.
Christopher Gonzalez
That is Jinmen. It's a demon turtle that eats people. In order to defend itself, the people it eats are integrated into itself as a part of its shell, fully aware and unable to be removed. If you attack them they will feel pain and suffer and die, and of course you can only kill Jinmen by killing them too.

I love how you're trying to act as if you're an expert in the comic medium by bringing up Junji fucking Ito, one of the most well known mangaka in the world outside of shonen artists.
The worst part is that by your own post's admission, you should realize his work barely fits this thread because it's asking specifically for spooky VILLAINS, and his works usually barely have any clear antagonist, let alone an actual villain.

Genis Vel post-cosmic insanity is truly unsettling. It's not even the concept of a Superman-gone-wacko, as much as the fact that awareness of EVERYTHING in the universe drove him mad.

It's too bad that Cronenberg doesn't think highly of comic books, cause he'd do an amazing Animal Man movie.
Austin Evans
Body horror like this gives me existential chills. Same with that image of Black Canary's face sewn onto some Frankenstein's monster type creature, where you can see the look of utter dread.
Adam Watson
My head-canon is that it's a sliding scale of Punisher-insanity. It starts off with the old school,
>"Every criminal I get off the street might mean another family gets to make it back from a day in the park,"
to the more unhinged,
>"The law is weak. Society needs people like me. The world requires punishment and there isn't enough of it going around,"
before eventually ending up in the ballpark of your picture, where he just slaughters creeps out of pure rage and hatred with no real goal except maybe the whole thing being a really really unsuccessful attempt at suicide-by-gunshot. Poor Frank.
Xavier Butler
Granted, he wasn't a supervillain, but when he actually got angry at someone, it was usually a fate worse than death.

William Flores
>Somewhere in hell the soul of Hunter Rose begins to laugh
While Grendel wouldn't be my first choice for a 'scary' character I can totally see it.
A few things are pretty unsettling about Hunter.
His hypocritical moral code, complete disregard for most civilians caught in his game and his utter refusal to accept what his actions will bring about in the future even after being told are a few of the things that got to me.
There is also something fucked up in a narrative sense about Hunter not only losing his life but causing the entire world to gradually fall apart with the one good deed he committed in his miserable life.
Jacob Thomas
I find the concept of a Batman clone who is nihilistic to be genuinely unsettling.
All that intelligence & capability and at the end of the day all he wants is to destroy reality. He's not a "conqueror" and he's not after any kind of physical/monetary gain, because everything is meaningless in the first place, and he wants to accelerate that notion in a tangible way.
Joseph Lopez
This is not scary. It's also badly written.
Noah Rivera
No.
He is absolutely horrific though.
Daniel Gutierrez
Speaking of which, this motherfucker didn't hold back at all.

Captain Stardust isn't a villain, but he stretches the definition of 'hero' to its furthest fucking limits.

Anthony Barnes
One thing I will always love about Frank is that he doesn't just have an origin, he has a destination. He moves from one thing to another thing, another type of antihero, over the course of his life. And you can have a story where he's anywhere on that spectrum, because he was that person at some point.
Liam Flores

The Swampy show was much better than I expected, but holy shit did they do a good job with depicting him as a terrifying MONSTER. He’s capable of being as gentle as Superman, but when you’ve seriously fucked with him he’ll quarter you with vines.

I love how Swampy is, for all intents and purposes a god, and most of his opponents are still able to manipulate him because gods are fallible, they can be tricked and they can be outsmarted, and every one of Swampy's biggest threats have access to knowledge that he doesn't, which makes them far more powerful than an actual god.
They managed to do that reveal in the show incredibly well, too.

And I haven’t written anything that’s longer than five pages in longer than two years. Awwwwwwesooooome.
