Avengers' Greatest Villains

GREATEST AVENGERS VILLAINS:

Based on the results of the latest Avengers Mailing List poll.

1. ULTRON--but only Perez ever really got him right. Not silver--battleship gray!

2. KANG--gotta love the guy; he's had more incarnations than the Wasp's had costumes...well, almost as many, anyway!

3. MASTERS OF EVIL--always a thorn in the Avengers' side, these guys (and girls) have now become the Thunderbolts... but there's a NEW group of Masters, and they look just as evil as ever...

4. KORVAC--talk about a villain that CRIES to be brought back--! What? He's dead? Hey, this is Marvel! Let's have a Korvac clone! Besides, the way he got his power (stolen from Galactus) could be duplicated.

5. COLLECTOR--An Elder of the universe, brother to the Grandmaster, and once able to capture the entire Avengers team, only to be defeated by.... Hawkeye!

6. GRIM REAPER--this guy never lived up to his potential, but his ties to Simon and Vizh make him critical to Avengers history.

7. THANOS--never a primary Avengers villain, but Annual #7 alone makes him one of the best.

8. LOKI--Thor's arch-foe, the evil god who caused the Avengers to form in the first place, and instigator of much trouble since...

9. DR. DOOM--The classic FF-Villain gave the Avengers a few tough battles over the years...

10. TASKMASTER-- Not super-strong or able to fly, Tasky presented an incredible matchup problem for the group, because he can duplicate anyone's moves instantly! And you had to love his "school for super villain flunkies..."

11. MAGNETO-- The classic X-Villain gave the Avengers fits back in the 1960s, especially when Wanda and Pietro were members...

12. SQUADRON SINISTER-- Pseudo-JLA from another world, they have plagued the Avengers on numerous occasions...

13. PROCTOR-- Though his name makes him sound like he'd be better suited to administering exams than to battling the Avengers, the Black Knight of an alternate reality and his long-running storyline in the issues from the mid to late 300s were probably the best thing to happen in AVENGERS in a long time...

14. COUNT NEFARIA--Mafia-lord-turned-Superman just BEGGED to go a few rounds with Thor. Later squashed like a bug by Tony Stark's Jupiter Probe. Um...huh??
