This thread is inspired by the events in Fantastic Four #568 - featuring the Marquis of Death.
In this issue of Fantastic Four, there is more travelling around alternate realities, with the Marquis having killed countless versions of Reed and the FF.
Here are some other examples I can think of where a villain travels through the multiverse killing alternate versions of someone:
Dark Raider aka Reed Richards - Reed Richards
Abraxas - Galactus
Proctor - Sersi
Slaymaster - Psylocke
Gog - Superman
Xenon - Supergirl
Black Zero - Superboy (maybe didn't kill them, just captured them)
The One - Jet Li (OK, not comics, but still...)
Frankly, I'm getting a bit sick of this idea. I mean in Fantastic Four alone we've already seen this sort of thing a few times.
Anyone else tired of this concept? Do these villains ever run into each other on their killing sprees? Do the writers actually think this concept is original or interesting when they do it? Any other examples anyone can think of?
