So this is just another topic on my mind cuz I like seeing the fellow "Foxferrets" be active, BUT, I was wondering what particular villains are everyone's favorite. Not just favorite villain of all time, but maybe just the ones out of particular categories like ,for example, Favorite Superman Villain and Why? Or Favorite Doctor Who Villain and Why? Or Favorite _____ franchise villain and Why? You get the drill. The fun part is the why. What makes this character your favorite, what is it they do that makes them stand out? I'll post some of mine in a bit but I'll give us some topics to start off.
Favorite Flash Villain and Why? Favorite Batman Villain and Why? Favorite Avengers Villain and Why? Favorite One Piece Villain and Why? Favorite Star Wars Villain and Why?
This can also be extended to 'Best ____ Villain and Why? Or 'Favorite ____ Hero and Why?

Guess I'll go first.
As for Flash villains go, Gorilla Grodd always been my favorite. Second would be Trickster(I blame that solely on Mark Hamill's performance)
The reason Grodd is my favorite is because he's probably the most evil villain Flash has(Other than Reverse-Flash, I suppose). I haven't read much with him but I really enjoyed his arc in the Justice League cartoon and I did read through his New 52 story, which was fantastic.

Well, I don't know a whole lot about Flash villains, but i enjoyed Captain Cold in Forever Evil, so I guess him.
Favorite Batman villain is a tough one. I actually really like Black Mask. My favorite arc with him is Red Hood. He was smart but crazy, and even comedic at a lot of times. Not favorite, but I really like him.
Ultron I would say. He has a good backstory, with Hank Pym's brainwaves and all, and he's usually pretty cool to see in action. I also like all his different incarnations, how he keeps coming back.
Don't watch one piece.
Darth Vader for sure. Just very sinister and powerful. He's not actually a terribly complex character but he's great to see in action in comics usually, and is very imposing in the movies.

Well the ones I posted were just example, you could come up with any that you'd like to talk about.
I do enjoy Black Mask, but Talia has recently become my favorite. Her relationship with Batman is intense and epic in many ways. I loved the Batman Incorporated story with her.
Star Wars villains are tough for me, I like the concept of Nihilus, but I always rear toward Darth Bane. His trilogy story were some of the best novels I ever read.

When it comes to Favorite Marvel Superhero, it is always Spider-Man. He never fails to inspire me to be better. Even when times are really rough he gets through it and that gives me hope. He was always my top pick and probably will always be. Besides,...he has awesome ass powers

Batman: Bane. He's a genius with muscle. He gave Bats such a good fight. Breaking him and everything, not many can claim such an iconic victory, right Doomsday?
Star Wars: Anakin, before the mask. His fall into infamy was pretty powerful and hard to watch. That's what I like to see! Slaying younglings! Am I right?

Favorite Flash Villain: Reverse Flash will always be the best Flash villain. He is one of the classic villains that is the complete opposite of the heroes in terms of morals and beliefs. Also I love the fast in his own twisted way he thinks he is helping the Flash and blames him for his own faults. The fact he beliefs he can replace Flash and be better then him in his own evil version is great. Also he is Flash's Joker in every way with everything he has done to Barry and Wally. He also has the power and ability to match him.
Favorite Batman Villain: Its always going to be Joker. He is the one true villain Batman can never beat as long as he is alive. Insane, anarchy, smart, no reason for his actions, and more all wrapped in one. Favorite Avengers Villain: This one is hard. Honestly its a tie between Kang and Ultron. The Avengers have a heated personal rivalry and backstory with those two villains the most.
Favorite Dragonball Z Villain (I never read One Piece): I have always believed the best Dragonball Z villain will always be Frieza. That's the main villain the Saiyans have a personal and great backstory with. Its the Saga that made the franchise as big and popular as DC/Marvel Comics. He destroyed Goku's homeplanet, killed his best friend, destroyed another planet, and more.
Favorite Star Wars Villain: Darth Sidious. The only one to completely destroy the Jedi Order and turn the Chosen One to the Dark Side. Enough Said.

DBZ's best villain by far is Frieza for those same reasons you listed bigballju. However, I can't help but have Broly sitting up top as my favorite. The fact that he could take on all those Super Saiyans at once was what my childhood dreams were made of.

In the original Star Wars films Luke was the last Jedi which we know in the films since it was mentioned. I'm talking Lucas original film canon before all of this that he said was separate from the extended universe. I'm sorry I should have been more clear.

Still utterly, absolutely, completely, totally wrong there. If the Jedi Order had been completely destroyed by Order 66, there would not have been any Jedi to train Luke.
Except there were. 2 in fact. Obi-Wan. And Yoda.
And plus if the Order was destroyed, there'd be no last Jedi like Luke. There would be no Jedi at all. Period.
