Scar, The Lion King
Makuta schmoopatta or whatever the heck you're supposed to say when you mention this film. I've never seen it. This was right around the time I became jaded on the whole Disney-Machine (visit the corporate headquarters then read George Orwell's 1984... you'll get what I mean... 'nuff said). Anywho, just when I need a hand with this fellow, along comes Loneheart!!!

Scar was the brother of Mufasa. Mufasa was the Pride leader (King) of the Pride lands. Scar would have been king, but was weaker than his brother and lions rule by strength. When Simba is born, it seems all hope for Scar to become king is lost. But Scar is smarter than Mufasa and plots to kill his brother and nephew (Simba, the hero) with the aid of hyenas and a stampede of buffalo. Mufasa dies and Simba is chased into the desert by the hyenas. Scar becomes king and invites the hyenas into the pride lands. Eventually Simba returns and there is a huge battle between the lions, Simba and his friends and Scar and the hyenas. Scar loses the battle and is devoured by the hyenas after trying to put the blame for everything on them. Voiced by Jeremy Irons, Scar is one of the old school Disney villains with the best in modern sophistication and dry, witty dialogue. He has a great song and a grisly off-camera death scene. And unlike many villains he starts off with nothing and gets everything he wants- before he gets everything he deserves.

Thanks again, Loneheart!

Shredder, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

A kitchen utensil?? Not quite. Let me see if I can recall his story. Shredder was a martial arts master who used his powers for evil. His face was clawed by his pet rat and therefore he wears a mask. Well that's how they showed it in the movie, anyway. Anyway, Shredder has the sense of style, the monumental ego, and can you forget his henchman organization, otherwise known as "The Foot?" Never. Shredder was impressive in both animated as well as live action format, and for that reason I considered adding him to the Live Action Gallery. Then again he would be in competition with the Joker for most-frequent villain on this site, and frankly I don't think Shredder can hold a candle to the Joker so here he sits, in animated form only. An impressive animated form, nonetheless.
   

 

 

Simon Bar Sinister, Underdog
Underdog was a show about a clean-cut do-gooder pup who popped a pill from his secret ring whenever duty called. The ring would transform him into a superhero of epic proportions who could fly and save the day. More often than not, this meant saving his girlfriend. Basically it's a canine superman cartoon clone. I don't remember much about Simon, but I do remember that he was the main supervillain and the most evil guy on the whole show. But that's kind of obvious, really. I mean just look at those eyebrows! Sinister is an understatement!


 




Simon the Monster Hunter, AAAHHH! Real Monsters

So, ehhh, you believe in monsters? Simon sure does. In fact, he believes so strongly that he'll do anything to prove it to you. This includes baiting and trapping real monsters in scary situations, just so he can show you the truth. His pursuit of capturing a monster and proving their undeniable existence is like a crusade. Unfortuately, he's just not as smart as a monster, apparantly, seeing as he's never quite been able to prove his point.
   




Dr. Sivana, Captain Marvel
Don't
ask me, I don't know. But you can ask Thanos6, because he's all over this one. Sent me the pic, the link, and the bio. Is this guy great or what? Take it away, Thanos6!

     I'm going to be giving you what most comic fans consider the "true" biography of Sivana, the pre-CRISIS [CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS] one. It is not the biography of the Sivana who currently appears in DC Comics.
     
DR. SIVANA--Thaddeus Bodog Sivana was, without question, the world's smartest man. There was almost nothing he couldn't do, except save his wife from dying. Heartstricken, he decided that Earth simply wasn't fit to live on, so he created a spaceship. He took his son Magnificus Sivana and daughter Beautia Sivana (who look pretty much like their names) and moved to Venus shortly before World War I broke out. Regaining a bit of his sanity, he left some robots to look after his kids on Venus while he himself returned to Earth. He married again and had two more children, a daughter Georgia Sivana and a son Thaddeus Bodog Sivana, Jr. However, this wife died as well. Now absolutely insane, he sent these two kids to Venus as well while he decided to take over the world. His first plan involved a "radio silencer" that would stop any radio station from EVER broadcasting again. He was, fortunately, stopped by Captain Marvel who had just gained his powers.
      Dr. Sivana quickly became Captain Marvel's arch-nemesis, dubbing the crimson-and-gold-clad superhero "The Big Red Cheese." After being rescued from Venus, Magnificus and Beautia became allies of The Marvel Family, aiding them in stopping their father's mad schemes. Georgia and Junior, though, were just as bad as dear old dad, helping him try and conquer the world.
      In 1953, Sivana came up with his most brilliant scheme yet. He'd devised a new element called Suspendium, which could put anyone, even the mighty Marvel Family, into suspended animation. And so one day, Sivana trapped the Marvel Family, Magnificus, Beautia, and pretty much the entire supporting cast in a giant globe of Suspendium. During the celebration, however, Junior gave his dad a pat on the back. The pat sent the lightweight mad genius into the controls of the globe, and soon the Sivanas had gotten themselves trapped as well.
      They stayed like that for 20 years until the globe finally melted. Within quite literally minutes, Dr. Sivana was back in top form, already trying to reconquer the new world he and the others found themselves in.
      Aside from the group he formed with his children, Dr. Sivana was a member of another important villainous group--the Monster Society Of Evil, arguably the most powerful villain team of all-time in any comic book. The Monster Society Of Evil consisted of almost every villain the Marvel Family had ever fought. It numbered about 30 or so, and included such nasties as Black Adam, Captain Nazi, and Mr. Atom. It was led, however, by Mr. Mind. In a typical Captain Marvel twist, Mr. Mind was revealed--after 25 issues, an unprecedented length for a World War II era comic storyline--to be a three-inch high alien worm!
      In short, Dr. Thaddeus Bodog Sivana is the basis for almost every "mad scientist" stereotype in books, films, etc. today, and it is thus I nominate him for the hall of fame.

*WHEW!!* That was a doozy! Thanks Thanos6.

   




Skelator and Hordak, He-man and She-Ra

Skelator was He-Man's nemesis, Hordak was She-Ra's nemesis. He-Man and She-Ra were twins Adam and Aurora, separated at birth when Hordak kidnapped the baby girl and took her to his world to raise her among his putrescence. What are the motives for these two baddies? They're just pure evil, baby. Nothing frillier than that. Perhaps I should have highlighted these fellows separately but I love this little two-shot here.  They're so cozy together, aren't they?  I have a special place in my heart for these two since I was a huge He-man and She-ra fan back in the day (why didn't they produce Hordak on the same scale as the other She-ra characters?!).  Whatever the case, these were two scary mugs. I mean, that dude's a skull!  And the other one has no left arm, man!
   




Mr. Slate, The Flintstones

Mr. Slate was Fred Flintstone's Boss down at the quarry. You may remember him as the bespecticled fellow in the stone manager's office, usually shouting orders onto a bird's beak phone. (and then usually the bird looked at the camera and said "it's a living" or something... heh heh... yeah not that funny, really) Anyway, You may also remember his large overbearing wife with the bad posh accent who demanded a lavish lifestyle on a quarry manager's salary. Not terribly villainous, but definitely nasty and the closest Fred ever got to a nemesis. Frankly I'm more curious about Gazoo and Shmoo. Remember Shmoo?! What the heck was he???? Now I've got the heebie-jeebies!

   








Spellbinder, Batman Beyond
Can I admit something here? It's not that I think Spellbinder is better than any of the other villains on this show, in fact, I haven't seen any one villain out-do another yet. But I like this guy's costume. After all, one of the great requirements of Super Villainy is style. Don't agree? Go to the Encyclopedia section for proof. So color me disappointed. I cut out of work early and by the happiest of coincidences Kids WB was showing the first "Spellbinder" episode. I figured, if no one can supply me with a guest-bio, I'll do my own guest-bio! So thanks to Piccologirl I finally have a Spellbinder bio! Take it away Piccologirl!

So here's the sitch... Spellbinder, in spite of his ultra-cool outward appearance, is really Dr. Ira Billings, high school guidance counselor for Terry McGuinness (the new Batman). He grew tired of advising snot-nosed rich kids who didn't pay him any respect so he started violating their tender little brains and ripping off their parents. He has a glowing eyeball-thingy that projects subconscious images directly into his victims' minds, which sends them into a virtual reality that overrides their perception of the real world. By doing this he can force his victims to do his dirty work and create a distraction for his own getaway. His motives were dumb, he was caught easily, but he's got the costume and the gadgets (yeah, they never explained where this fellow could have gotten his hands on this technology, and if he invented it what's he doing working as a guidence counselor???). He's also got the Massive Oversights (go consult the Encyclopedia of Villainry, kiddies) which are apparent in the fact that he left such an easily traceable trail to his identity and whereabouts. Come on, Billings! Even the schmoes on "Murder in Small Town X" could have tracked you down!

Thanks again, Piccologirl!

   




Steele, Balto
Steele is the number one sled dog. He was bred for it and therefore power and glory are just handed to him. And of course like most people who were born into their fortune, he can't cope when Balto shows up as a virtual nobody with the desire to do Steele's job as well or better than he does. Steele schemes to find a way to stop Balto and ruin his chances of ever attaining sled-dog status, even putting a shipment of medicine for sick children at risk. Ever seen this film? Although it never made a Disney-type impact, it's as good as any Disney has put out in the last 10 years. Steele is a nasty one. Ruthless, hateful, conniving, slick, cunning, you'd think all these words were invented just for him. I like this pose because it's so un-doggy-like. Don't you just love a good sneer?!

   






Stewie, The Family Guy
Aww, don'cha just love babies? They're so cute and GOOD GOD THAT ONE HAS A GUN!!! Like Angelica from Rugrats and the Brainchild from The Tick, Stewie has attained a villainous outlook at a very tender age. Sure it's all talk now but he's comprised of every Super Villain stereotype known to man. That makes him a villain without even having done anything to earn the title. He's an homage.

   






Talpa, Ronin Warriors
See, there's Evil, and then there's EVIL. Talpa falls into the second category. His is the dark shadow that falls across the earth, and tries to swallow up anything good and full of life. And he wants to possess the powerful armor the Ronins use to fight him. The armor was once one, and it was extremely powerful, thus Talpa wants to control it and use its power. But the armor was split up and bestowed on warriors who used the pieces to fight Talpa and his intentions. Talpa's goals have never changed, he just needs to keep on his toes if he's ever going to destroy the Ronin Warriors and take the armor back. Frankly, if I were him I'd want to squash those little wallpaper-strip-throwing weenies, too.
   




Team Rocket, Pokemon
Jessie and James! They want power and glory and all the accoutraments that come from leading a pokemon-intensive life. They aren't content with just having their pocket monsters battle in the ring, they want to utilize their power to get away with anything their hedonistic little hearts desire. That especially means taking o-beloved Pikachu from Ash. If I may quote the Beastie Boys here, "So dont touch me! Cause I'm electric! And if you touch me, you might get shocked shocked shocked!!" Sorry... *ahem* Anyway, I've gotta admire these two on style alone. Jessie and James have a kind of futuristic, alternate universe, faux haute couture thing happening. And nobody can biff it like them when a plan falls apart. They're wacky in a way that the little ones love, and they're evil in a way that makes them true Super Villains. Oh, and I didn't include Meoweth because I don't think he counts as an evil member of this team. He's just comic relief.

   




Treize Kushranada, Gundam Wing
You can get the low-down on this fellow in the first 2 minutes of any of the first dozen episodes. Treize leads Oz, an independent military organization that works to protect the Earth Sphere Alliance. When Oz takes over, that pretty much makes Treize the ruller of the world and associated colonies. Hmm, something about him reminds me of Gendo Ikari that goes beyond the military uniform and gloves. I guess it's that hazy distinction between him and his villain status. Does he deserve it? I didn't think so until just recently. So I'm re-watching an episode of GW and I come to a scene in which a small baby crawls away from its mother towards the end of a pier. Treiz puts his arm out and prevents the mother from saving her child, instead giving the child the opportunity to live or die on its own accord. Metaphors for the show's plot aside, I decided he hits that point of evil that Ikari hits where he sacrifices other people's lives callously and without thought. He believes he is giving humanity the chance to be greater, but the ends do not justify the means. His methods are deplorable, and therefore he is a villain.
   




Trevor Goodchild, Aeon Flux

Okay, so I have to clarify that in the first season of Aeon Flux, it can be deduced that Trevor is a villain since he is the cause of the epidemic, and his cure ensures his own rise to power. However, in second season Aeon Flux (still talking Liquid Television here) Trevor appeared once or twice either in cahoots with Aeon or as an innocuous side character. But only when Aeon Flux became a speaking cartoon did his evil side truly come out. Megalomaniacal, controlling, self-serving, back-stabbing, all of these characteristic symptoms point to Super Villain-itis.

"Man alive, Goodchild. You give me the hinks!" --Aeon Flux, Custodian episode


"You are not a Breen."
"And you do not exist."
   






Vegeta, Dragonball Z
Vegeta is a Saiyan prince from the planet Vegeta (named after a planet? It's a DBZ thing). When the planet is blown up he travels space fighting and destroying others, until he ends up on earth in an effort to find the dragonballs so he can wish for immortality. Oh yeah, and he wants to destroy the planet when he's done. But not before he kills off the Earth's best fighters just for laughs. Blah Blah Blah, his character evolves over hundreds of episodes, and if you really want to know more about him I suggest you check out one of the many many many fansites dedicated to him. I love love love Vegeta, but not in that scary way. He's got the sneer and the laugh down perfect and he's a master at doing the arms-crossed stance. Personal note: my favorite Vegeta scene is in the first Brolly movie when he's too scared to fight and Piccolo picks him up by the hair, calls him a coward, and drags him into battle. Wonderful stuff!!

   








Venger, Dungeons and Dragons
Do you even need me to tell you this fellow is evil? He's like Myotismon's precursor (he's from Digimon for all you old-school hosers) for the whole "winged scary devil type" villain. The premise behind Dungeons and Dragons was only loosely based on the role playing game some of you geeky-freakies enjoy. Basically there is this group of friends who all get on a DND roller coaster ride and are swept away into a magic land where they are told by the Dungeon Master that they must battle evil if they want to find a way home. Total hostage situation, man! Venger's shenanigans comprised the bulk of the evil they had to fight. He's like the Dungeon Master's arch-nemesis (go to the Archetypes section to read up on that nifty concept) and for some reason he uses his all-powerful...uh...powers to try to smoosh these poor kids. Come on, the poor nerdy boy couldn't get a single spell right, it couldn't have been that hard!
   




Wiley E. Coyote, Loony Toons
So it only took me 2 years to remember the greatest Super Genious Super Villain of all times! Thanks to Alan Cherry for reminding me of Wiley's existence. This fellow is the whole reason people watch Roadrunner cartoons. So why are they called "Roadrunner cartoons"??? How many people actually watch for the roadrunner?? NO ONE!!! Poor Wiley, short-changed again. This guy's got battle scars from decades of battles with... well with trucks and TNT and rockets and pretty much anything dangerous that ACME can deliver in 0.2 seconds. Need proof that Wiley is the star of these shorts? How about the fact that he even did a few episodes with Bugs Bunny? Did you ever see the roadrunner co-star with Warner Brother's most popular character? No! Only Wiley E. Coyote, Super Genious, was invited back for that honor. Oh, and I'd say he got big time cheated on the Cartoon Network Superbowl special. The roadrunner bought the refs off, I tell you!! It was fixed!!

Oh, and speaking of ACME, it seems Mr. Coyote finally sued the company for its shoddy workmanship. Wanna read the case files? Check it out!

   








Yosemite Sam, Looney Toons
"I'm the Rootinest tootinest hombre this side of the Rio Grandie."
Charmed, I'm sure.
   






Zim, Invader Zim
Can I just gush about this cartoon for a moment? I LOVE this show! if Gir isn't the greatest cartoon sidekick ever then i don't know who is! Please click the pic above to check out the best Invader Zim page on the internet. There's a message board, doodle chat, news, pics... not to mention goodies like coloring book pages, paper dolls, and desktop themes! If you aren't a Zim fan yet, you will be.

Don't feel bad if you've never heard of this fellow. You see, it's all part of his plan. Sent to earth by the Almighty Tallest, Zim tries his hardest to blend in with the pitiful earth creatures around him. He has horrific cyborgean parental units and a sidekick named Gir (a robot who disguises himself as a dog) to help him conceal his identity. Remember our lesson from Pinky and The Brain, just because he's the main character doesn't mean he's the hero. Watch the show and you'll see evidence of a diabolical tendency that makes him an Anti-Hero, which is sometimes as good as full-blown Villanry. Go on, click the pic. You'll probably never hear me endorse a cartoon as strongly as i do for Invader Zim.

   




Dr. Zin, Johnny Quest (original series)
Johnny Quest was full of villains, and it looked to me that Dr. Zin was the only one that really showed up in more than one episode. What I've gathered is that he's a money hungry "Ernest Blofeld" type character (Ernie's in the Live Action Gallery) who lives for the pursuit of money and power. And if there's a more noble cause then I don't want to know about it. Wanna know more? Well kids, it's that time again! I've been thown a bone and i'm dropping it here for your approval. You can thank the lovely state of Florida for bringing us information on a hard-to-know bad guy. Take it away, Kid Zed!

In the original 1960's Johnny Quest, Dr. Zinn was a "Red Chinese" robtics expert who's ultimate goal was the downfall of democracy. He was pretty much a stereotypical, "yellow peril-type" oriental villain with the addition that he was a scientific genious on a par with his nemesis Dr. Benton Quest (Jonny's father).
Oh yeah... Dr. Zinn was also the inventer of this scary-looking "daddy-longlegs-spider-bot" that gave me nightmares after I saw it on TV as a kid. I loved the show, but it tended to scare the beejeezus outta me, especially the episode with the one-eyed electricity monster! Brrr!

Kid Zed. Wonder if he's related to Kidd Video... maybe his Kidd brother? Ahahahaha!! *ahem* Sorry about that....
