*Batman loses Joker - Ras. Or if Supes is losing Lex, maybe Lex just to mix things up.
*The Fantastic Four lose Doctor Doom. Well Doom hasn't been much for the FF in later years and the FF are gone. Galactus is too powerful and isn't the same now either. Molecule Man is way above them nowdays. Mole Man probably can't step up and the Skrulls as a race aren't really arch-enemy material. Maybe Super Skrull, or to piss off the X-Men, how about someone brand new like Apocalypse?
*Wonder Woman loses (...erm...I'm actually not sure who counts as her arch-enemy; Cheetah? Ares? Circe?) Cheetah is too lame, while I don't quite see Ares or Circe as arch-enemies. That egg guy maybe?
*Captain America loses Red Skull. Red Skull was his ally and always has been!!!! I'm going with Sally Floyd as his new arch-nemesis.
Superman loses Lex. Batman becomes his arch nemesis.
Batman loses Joker. A pile-of-shit plot device replaces Joker and nobody even notices he was gone.
The Fantastic Four lose Doctor Doom. The Wizard finally gets a chance to shine, though in all honesty, there are many Doom clones in the franchise.
Wonder Woman... Has no archnemesis or whatsoever.
Captain America loses Red Skull. Armin Zola or some other cookie cutter nazi takes over.
Iron Man loses Mandarin. He doesn't depend that much in the mandarin tbh. I guess he could face Doom or some mad scientist villain from FF.
Thor loses Loki. Who cares? Thor loses the title character and puts a blonde in a skirt and the book goes on.
Also, tfw having the Tomorrow Man being Thor's enemy, that came out of the left field
Hot damn that is the most demented comic-book villain I've ever seen.
With the exception of 'Shithead'.
You don't see many characters with moustache-power. Shame the original was so horribly, horribly racist in so many ways. The modern one just looks psychotic, especially with the bits of drool.
Thanks for the info, Riv.
Yeah, eggcellent work again. But enough yolking around...
I was wondering about Martian Manhunter with respect to this thread. He jobs so much he's kind of his own worst enemy so you can't really take that away. But I was thinking maybe Solomon Grundy or Vandal Savage could be his new foe.
Mongul or Zod are other possibilities for Superman. He actually has quite a few well known enemies who could step up.
I was also rethinking on Apocalypse - while he might be an interesting change for the FF's villain, he might also go well as a Thor villain.
Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
...Norman Osborn was dead from to 1973 to 1996, real time.
Doctor Octopus basically took over as Spider-Man's arch-enemy...for brief periods the Jackal, Hobgoblin, Venom, and arguably Kingpin had the title.
The following heroes have their main villains killed off for about 25 years real time.
In their absence, who rises to the top?
*Superman loses Lex Luthor - brainiac
*Batman loses Joker - pyg
*The Fantastic Four lose Doctor Doom - non jobbing super skrull
*Wonder Woman loses - ?
*Captain America loses Red Skull - omega red cold war style
*Iron Man loses Mandarin - ?
*Thor loses Loki - ?
