What comic book villains have actually been successful with their plans, and come the closest to the absolute victory they aspired for?

Thanos.

Though being THE EMO EGGPLANT that he is he ultimately created the means to his own destruction each time.

Hmm, plenty of villains have successfully carried out their plans for domination or w/e.
