Humm...more manga... 1) Dio Brando: Prehaps one of the worlds most powerful vampiers, and bain of the Jostar/Kujo famaly from the first and third storyline of Jojo's Bizzare Adventure. Just his existance is enougth to slowly kill Holly Kujo. 2) Marick Istar/Yammi Marick: If there is a true 'sick bastard' in Yu-Gi-Oh!, it is him. I don't see why Yami Yugi dosen't simply mind crush him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Blue Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Re: Who are the greatest (?) super villains? Dracula, long-running star of his own great series Tomb of Dracula. He had an unlife full of incident and interest, an atrocious but plausible morality, and withering arrogance well supported by his consistent winning record and the fact that even if he was "killed" he was more than likely to be revived sooner or later and he knew it. He was a cloud of gloom that withered and destroyed everything he touched, and from time to time he would give people pointers on how to be more like him. (But of course they never measured up. Which meant that whatever happened to them next was their fault, really.) Classic Drac moment: a young girl was wandering out, upset with her parents. Did Drac bite the child? You underestimate his nobility! He got her invitation to remedy the matter, and he slaughtered the whole family. And then, despite this vast act of generosity on his part, the wretched, ungrateful child acted distressed! Already sated to the full, the Lord of Vampires flew off in a huff. (Leaving the girl presumably to deal with the guilt of having wished Dracula on her parents.) The situation of the "Drac Pack", the bit-player heroes in the villain's story was utterly grim, as they were ground down one by one, always facing killer villains, never with any real hope at the end of the tunnel, and always with their loved ones marked for kidnapping, hostage games and death or even undeath followed by the need for the heroes to dispose of them. Probably the guy in the worst situation was an actual descendant of Dracula. That didn't mean Drac had any restraint in dealing with him, rather Dracula was extra-hostile out of contempt that any descendant of his could be a wimpy human "hero".
