Only if he's written by Jim Starling. His current series isn't bad.

Good topic! I am a sucker for certain Spidey villains. Shocker and Scorpion are two I gravitate towards and if they are in the ish or on the cover, I am likely to want it. Also, anything where a villain and hero are engaged one-on-one battle. Some of these are on my want list for that reason alone. Also, with Batman, I like the Joker, Riddler, and Deadshot.

Stegron the Dinosaur Man.
(But the odds that I notice that a new comic has a Stegron appearance are not great.)

That way lies spending money on bad comics. Spending money on bad comics encourages companies to produce more bad comics because they are making money from bad comics. Don't support bad comics. But what's your message here, Slam? I'm not quite getting it. What are you really saying?

I can't think of a single villain who could compel me to buy a book simply because her or she was in it. Guess I'm just not wired that way.
Cei-U! I summon the empty rogues gallery!

If any one, it would be Ming the Merciless, but it would come down to creators/concept for a final decision. There have been some good lternate takes on the Flash Gordon mythos and some pretty terrible ones (Dan Jurgens I am looking at you). -M

Yeah, I'm the same way. I wracked my brain over this and I really couldn't say that any villain would automatically make me buy the book.

There are many villains which will have me check the issue they are in to see if it is worth picking up but many times a great villain doesn't always get a great story in other series. Some I will check because I like the villain: Thanos Sphinx Galactus Dr. Doom Loki Kang Ultron Frightful Four Tiger Shark The Absorbing Man Wrecking Crew Grey Gargoyle Batroc Modok Dr. Octopus Electro Shocker Mysterio Sandman Ronan the Accuser Klaw Super Adaptoid Joker Riddler Captain Cold
