ITT: "Joke" villains who could probably kick the hero's ass
He really shouldn't lose at the street-level.
Also, Hydro Man.
So that’s why he’s on the harley quinn show
Has he raped WW yet?
doesn't he fight Hulk and the Fantastic 4?
Always thought this nigga was cool as fuck
Pretty sure neither of these are joke villains.
Not a joke villain either.
>hydro man
>not a joke
Hydro man and sandman were created so spooderman can show his science skills to the readers
>Science skills
Didn't he defeat Sandman with a vacuum cleaner
How is Swarm a joke?
Neither Sandman or Hydro-Man are joke villains you dumbasses. Furthermore, losing to Spider-Man isn't something to be ashamed of. He's a heavy hitter who chooses to be street level.
Lookit the size of them mits
I liked Swarm in this Ant-Man comic. In which comics he has a prominent appearance?
SCIENCE
He’s a “Joke” villain most of the time but it’s commonly understood that he can beat up Superman any day of the week.
I think its more his concept is just so goofy (nazi bees?) that hes not given a gravitas that he could be capable of
I remember Swarm being *terrifying* as a kid.
Sure, there isn't much this villain is going to do against someone like Iron Man or Thor, but for heroes like Spidey he is potentially deadly.
Maybe a bit of zeigtgeist at the time, in the 70s there was a fear that killer bees were going to swarm up north america, a concern that never seemed to materialize.
He'd be a great villian in a future MCU movie if he's going to be in antman 3
>the vast majority of bees are female
>Swarm uses male pronouns
>Swarm is marvel's first trans character
>Swarm is marvel's first trans villain
>Swarm is a transgendered bee nazi.
Egghead. This son of bitch was quite close to destroy Hank Pym morally and ruin his life forever. Also he killed Hawkeye's brother. He was Pym's archenemy, but then he died and everybody forgot about him, so people remembers only Ultron as main Antman's villian.
They're not "Nazi Bees", he's a ex-Nazi scientist that got consumed by irradiated bees and his consciousness was embedded in the swarm itself.
Remember when he tried to get everyone addicted to smoking?
hes a nazi made out of bees.
the shit is a goofy fucking premise.
How do you deal with dirt?
How is that any different than most of the other shit running around? Bees are fucking terrifying
The Worm serial novel proved that powers related to controlling large numbers of insects is absolutely overpowered and can beat most people if used properly.
Bees are cute you pussy.
It's wasps that are terrifying.
One of the coolest villains and simultaneously one of the dumbest premises.
Didn't most of these just become joke supervillains later on when old 60s villains were considered lame and dumb next to the super edgy extreme ones of the 90s?
