Why don't villains have their own series?

.....Wasn't that a TV series?

Joker series or mini would be cool if written right. We do have a Black Adam mini out right now.. I might pick that up later today...

Venom does have his own miniseries, but it would be good to get his own comic.

Nah.

Salvation Run. Read it.

Meh, it's pretty good, not great.

Chen's still an idiot for hopping off of NOVA for this. 😬

I rather like Salvation run and BA the Dark age.

Joker killing psimon=Priceless

I preferred how everybody was like "Oh, here we go again, Luthor presumes he's in charge" and then he wins them all over with his speech, that was pretty damn awesome.

Anyone or anything under Luthor's leadership's going to do well.

Meh,a good writer could give atleast 30 issues.
Deathstroke had 60 and 4 annuals with Wolfman at the pen.

That's what I liked in the animated series, when they started to go by names like Secret Society or Legion of Doom, rather than Injustice League. Because as Grodd put it, they are a collection of individuals whose ambitions put them at odds with the straight world, and that power should be used for your own benefit, not for the benefit of others. That's when villains are at their most interesting, when they don't think they're doing bad things, but doing what feels right to them. I'd like to see more of that in comics.

And despite everything he's done, I still feel sympathy for Black Adam, and wish he could work things out. DC just put him in a box he could only get out of with violence.

Doom. Magneto. Thanos. Prime... although that wouldn't last long... Black Adam. Etc.

Supervillian team up was probably the first series of Super villian comics.

I think Magneto could have his own series...he doesnt do things to hurt people, in his mind, he's doing good

He had one A long time ago and didn't do well.

DeadPool, I almost forgot

You mean the mini where he was Joseph? That was god-awful bad. Or is there some other one that I don't know about?
