Great super villains make great super hero movies. There are so many awesome super villains in the marvel universe, we have seen many of them Ultron, Loki, Red skull and Thanos too (though just little bit), while a lot of cool ones are yet to be seen in the movies. In this post I would like talk about top 4 of them.
#4 Carnage
Origin: Carnage was once a serial killer once called Cletus Kasady, Before he merged with an offspring of symbiote, Carnage is kind of a red version of venom except he is not vulnerable to high pitch sounds , So if he shows up in a spiderman movie spidey won’t be able to defeat him beating rods together. In the comics Spiderman and venom teamed up to beat this guy.
What’s cool about him: Carnage Symbiote has occasionally attached itself to Doctor Octopus and even silver Surfer (Cosmic Carnage). But as MCU keeps modifying comic book plots Carnage can attach itself to any other great character how about Cap? Or Hulk? I don’t know but it will make a good plot.
#3 Mysterio
Origin: This guy has two versions in the comics Francis Klum and Quentin Beck, Beck being the most popular I guess. Beck in his early life was a special effects designer and wanted to make his name in the industry. He started his carrier as a stunt-man, became an actor later failed due to lack of recognition. Then some friend of his suggested him that un masking a masked super hero was the quickest way to make money(what a ridiculous idea but gave birth to an awesome villain anyway) So he chose to become a super villain and with his expertise in illusion to eliminate the wall crawler. He is also a part of sinister six by the way.
What’s cool about him: I was confused about which one to put on #3 him or carnage…I guess I’m still confused but It would be great for Mysterio to show up maybe in a spider-man homecoming sequel, marvel can do a good job on this guy with his illusions and stuff to make it look good in IMAX screen. In the comics Mysterio even unmasked spiderman in front of public, so there is kinda lot of scope for the plot too.
#2 M.O.D.O.K
Full form of his name is kinda cool: Mental Organism Designed Only-for Killing….actually his creators named him M.O.D.O.C where “C” stands for computing(But he didn’t liked the name I guess). This guy is one of the most popular villains in the marvel comics and he was likely to show up in many marvel movies but he did not, let me tell you how. He was created by A.I.M (Advanced Idea Mechanics) remember – Aldrich Killian – Ironman 3, But I don’t think A.I.M is coming back in MCU so may be MODOK will have a different origin…. Like mandarin had, wait! Should Mandarin be in this list??.
In the comics MODOK was first to have cosmic cube (Tesseract) before Red Skull, so he was also very likely to appear in Cap’s movie. Maybe marvel has other plans for him. Ok! I am making it too long let’s get to #1.
#1 Kang: The Conqueror
Origin: His real name is Vathaniel Richards born in the year 3000 (according to the comics). Basically he is a guy with a time machine and that alone makes him super cool, he can travel through different time lines and affect realities of people.
What makes him #1: I don’t know I just kind of find him cooler than others. And if he enters in the MCU the only person who can deal with him is Doctor Strange obviously because he is the only other guy having time manipulating powers. Oh! By the way I heard the rumor that Hawkeye’s son is gonna become Kang?!?! That’s a pretty ridiculous rumor but anyways this concludes our list.
OK! So what do you think about this list? Who are your top 10 villains who are not yet introduced in MCU? How should these characters be used in MCU? Write in the comments below. And If you enjoyed this post please upvote.
