Top 20 Superman Villains (Dark Age)

Описание: The best Superman villains in the Dark Age. The list includes Kal-El's enemies during the New Earth era up until 1999 before the turn of the millennium.

#20 A mad twisted scientist and master cloner who is primarily responsible for all cloning (such as Spider-Man's Jackal). He works for Lex, Intergang, and others.
#19 A bounty hunter from Czarnia, usually picking fights, especially with Superman (although sometimes acting as an ally).
#18 The tyrant and great conqueror of Warworld. He is responsible for the destruction of Coast City and the attempt to transform Earth into a new Warworld (with #2).
#17 A hitman with a couple of versions (+1 female version called "Demolitia"), he has limited teleportation abilities which mainly involve quickly acquiring weapons.
#16 A media mogul who hates Superman, originally one of the main members of Intergang. Later, he founded his own Superman Revenge Squad.
#15 An artificial phony Superman created from an ancient Kryptonian device "Eradicator". He has caused trouble and fought against Kal-El (although he sacrificed himself when destroying #2).
#14 Female demon who runs his own nightclub in Metropolis and hunts souls there. She kidnapped Jimmy and Perry's son Jerry, causing the latter's death. She is in constant competition with his brother Satanus.
#13 A mad inventor who fights Superman with his own technological devices.
#12 Another mad inventor who specializes in toys. The Dark Age version has become an even crazier child murderer.
#11 Warrior Queen of Almerac who is searching for a mate of equal status with whom she can have a great conqueror child, and thus she is obsessed with Superman and because of his rejection often acts against Kal-El.
#10 A crime boss and leader of the Metropolis criminal organization Intergang, with direct connections to Apokolips and Darkseid.
#9 A power-hungry creature who lusts after Superman's powers. He works alone but also with Lex and the Superman Revenge Squad.
#8 fifth-dimensional imp who arrives in Metropolis every three months, causing problems for Superman and those around him.
#7 A Terminator-style hostile cyborg powered by Kryptonite, he can also reshape his mechanical body, making him a dangerous opponent for Superman.
#6 Clark's childhood friend, now the leader of a terrorist group, wears a special suit that emits kryptonite radiation. He holds a grudge against Clark because he always came second to him. He later found out that Clark is Superman and set out on a vendetta to kill Clark and all of Clark's friends and loved ones, thus causing Superman's greatest crisis in the Dark Age.
#5 An alien who took over the body of stage magician Milton Fine, turning him into a powerful telepathic supervillain. He is capable of causing powerful mass hallucinations and even body swapping.
#4 A Kryptonian monster that is extremely strong and genetically engineered to be virtually indestructible (and must always be killed in a different way). During the Dark Age, Superman encountered him a couple of times, with the first encounter resulting in Kal-El's death.
#3 The tyrant of Apokolips, a powerful villain who leads his own henchmen and forces (Parademons/Female Furies) against Earth and Superman and he is even behind the criminal organization Intergang.
#2 A space pilot who harbors a grudge against Superman, partly formed from Superman's genetic and mechanical body. Kal-El's nemesis in Dark Age, a mass murderer who caused the destruction of Coast City (along with 18 others), only to be destroyed and return to threaten Earth and other planets.

#HM1 A Kryptonian wizard/spirit who shrunk Kandor II into a bottle (as Brainiac did during the Silver Age).
#HM2 Lex's clone of Superman, who became a twisted, stupid version of Kal-El. He has fought against Superman and Lex.
#HM3 An Irish-Scottish woman possessed by the spirit of the underworld. Her scream can kill anyone and is dangerous even to Superman.
#HM4 A demonic creature (Pennywise-style) that lures children, turning them into winged bat-like minions who steal for him.
#HM5 An Asian drug lord who intended to marry Lois until she double-crossed him, making him primarily Lois Lane's enemy (and Clark's as well).

#1 One of Superman's two Dark Age nemeses and his arch-enemy, who plots Superman's destruction and domination of Metropolis, dying but returning in a new clone body to manipulate others against Kal-El, thus remaining a constant background menace in Metropolis.
