#87, ThanosVillains Counter ... DC Comics 6 .... Marvel Comics 8 The Darkseid of Marvel ComicsOne of most imposing Marvel Villains around, and one of the most dangerous indeed. I mean dangerous in true sense of the word. I consider the Infinity Gauntlet one of his greatest adventure ever and I read it ten years later because I did not had any time reading comics in the early 90's because I was working nearly 65 hours a week that year when it first came out. It was mind blowing and this six issues run puts him at #87 and I'm truly sorry for all those Thanos fans out there because that's only print series that I have of him. I read a couple of other adventures as well and he made an impression on me as a Super Villain. His first appearance With Captain Marvel - I believe it was - Captain Marvel #25–33 (bi-monthly: March 1973 – Jan. 1974)Infinity Gauntlet PicturesCool Picture of ThanosSuper Villain Origin - ThanosI have seen many cartoons featuring him and that helps him a lot too. I don't get why people like Thanos. All I see is a Darkseid knock-off, and I find the character exceptionally dull, especially since Starlin decided that Thanos should be unbeatable.

#86, Solomon GrundyVillains Counter ... DC Comics 7 .... Marvel Comics 8 One of my favorites and I feel really bad making him at #86 and yet there are 85 Villains that I liked so much better and one of the most imposing villain that any superhero has to face. I consider him a force to be reckon with and I like him on the Super Friends and the early adventures with the Justice Society of America. His face (Zombie-Like) is one of the most memorable faces of all villain-hood. A truly memorable character. Two Great Pictures of Solomon Grundy facing the Justice Society of America - One Early and another later on ... On the Super Friends - One of my favorite Legion of Doom Characters! This is one of my favorite comic books when Solomon Grundy faces the The Thing from the Fantastic Four and it was fun to read and I truly enjoyed the story of this book below you. I still have this book and one of my favorite series is Marvel Two-In-One featuring the Thing. I have about 25-30 books of this series. Super Villain Origin of Solomon Grundy You Tube

#91, Ultra-HumaniteVillains Counter ... DC Comics 4 .... Marvel Comics 6 I have never, ever liked him in the comic books that I read and furthermore - I prefer him in Cartoon Format like in the Justice League Unlimited and that's it. It's really sad to say this but all the villains from 91 to 100 has been very frustrating to me on a personal level that I just can't place a finger at it. To me, Marvel's Sasquatch is much, much better looking than this weird looking character that DC Comics has created in the first place. I just think if they had tone down the hair a bit - I would had accepted him more and that's pretty much that all I can stay of him. And, the sad thing about him - I just can't remember a memorable story in the Comic Book World that I can honestly say that he was memorable in.
Though I suspect he is now regarded more as a foe of the JSA (or even JLA) the Ultra-Humanite was Superman's first major foe and a Luthor prototype at that. Actually, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster wrote a short story in 1932 entitled "The Reign of the Superman" in which an everyday guy is given tremendous mental powers not unlike those that the Humanite claims to have been granted in a similar experiment so in a way, this template for the Ultra-Humanite makes your #91 on this list a sort of prototype for Superman himself. Perhaps that accounts for the similarity in their names - "Ultra"/"Super", "Humanite"/"Man".
By the way, the Humanite was originally a crippled old man who only found himself in the above form after transplanting his brain into that of world famous actress Dolores Winters. It says a lot about the Humanite's unwavering focus on only that which mattered to him, that he found the fact that he was not only trading bodies but genders with this transplant a matter for no concern.

#86, Solomon Grundy
This is one of my favorite comic books when Solomon Grundy faces the The Thing from the Fantastic Four and it was fun to read and I truly enjoyed the story of this book below you. I still have this book and one of my favorite series is Marvel Two-In-One featuring the Thing. I have about 25-30 books of this series. I feel like I've slipped into a parallel universe...nice try, Mecha, but that cover very definitely originally featured the Thing battling his earlier self (MTIO #50).

#85, The KeyVillains Counter ... DC Comics 8 .... Marvel Comics 8 All Tied Up with 8 Villains a Piece! This is only (the above version) version that I really cared about and all others Keys aren't my favorites at all including the one shown below because he doesn't fill the bill as the Key and looks like a Zombie from another world. I just find this version not my cup of tea and matter of fact I just don't care for this character at all. I don't care for this version at all - Sorry Members
This Comic Book is by far the best Comic Book Adventure involving the Key and it's was considered the most entertaining story of his mastery over the Justice League of America. He was a cunning, crafty, diabolical, and one of the toughest foes that JLA ever fought. His knowledge is incredible and most of all - I find him a worthy adversary for all Super Heroes alike. This JLA Adventure is one of my favorites ... and rightly so! ... I have a copy of this book - I got it from my older brothers for nothing! He had a really cool weapon there and I just loved his costume very original and very neat looking and it's quite appropriate one for him. I just dig his head dress here and everything else under the Sun!

Number 85
Will show up sometimes in the next 24-48 hours depending how my days are going. I have a water polo match in six hours and having fun with my girlfriend in the afternoon seeing PEANUTS and have dinner with her afterwards. I also be helping with my nephew moving to a new place this Saturday and take my brother and his wife to the Airport bound to Hawaii on Sunday Morning. I just don't know when I will be able to do Number 85 on my list. Sorry Everyone!!!
I hope to do it late Saturday Night or early Sunday Morning!

I liked the Shaggy Man in L. Frank Baum's Oz novels better.

#83, ClayfaceVillains Counter ... DC Comics 10 .... Marvel Comics 8 I'm not going to talk about anything about Clayface in Comic Books at all. Because this villain is pretty much an non-factor and did not impressed me at all. Matt Hagen didn't do anything special in these parts because I consider several of it's stories like the on in the picture above did not do him any justice at all. BATMAN, THE ANIMATED SERIESIt was Batman, The Animated Series that propels Clayface to #83 and having said that made a very lasting impact on his character of which it was quite memorable and unforgettable. The keyword in unforgettable. I find this character in this animated cartoon the best of the best and most menacing and one of the toughest one for Batman to overcome other than Bane. Check out his pictures below and you'll see why! His Eyes and Teeth that made it memorable and unforgettable - who ever designed this character did a fantastic job with it. My Favorite Scene in Clayface in Batman, The Animated Series

OK, so that's why you're not impressed with Matt Hagen, but what about the other Clayface's? To me, Clayface III (Preston Payne) was easily the best, a nightmarish character who dissolved people with his touch.
