Number 38 - Parasite



Alter Ego - Raymond Maxwell Jensen
Group Affiliation - S.T.A.R. Labs, Suicide Squad, Superman Revenge Squad
Secret Society of Super Villains

Created by - Jim Shooter
Illustrated by - Various Artists

Abilities
Absorption of energy, superpowers, and intelligence through physical contact

Interesting Fact - Raymond Maxwell Jensen was a lowlife who got a job as a plant worker for a research center. Wrongly believing that the company payrolls were hidden in storage containers, Jensen opened one and was bombarded with energies from bio-hazard materials (which was actually waste collected by Superman when he traveled into outer space), which transformed him into a purple skinned, parasitic entity, becoming the Parasite.

Reason for Rank: One of the most dangerous super-villains that Superman ever faced, and rightly so. 

Special Notes: Parasite was one of the main characters in the second Marvel/DC crossover between Spider-Man and Superman (Marvel Treasury Edition #28). In this story, he was recruited by Doctor Doom as an agent in Doom's latest plan to conquer the world by wiping out all power sources but his own fusion reactor. Doom claimed that he needed the Parasite to function as an invincible bodyguard, capturing the Incredible Hulk and Wonder Woman and giving the Parasite a harness that would allow him to retain their powers for prolonged periods. However, Doom's true intention was to kill the Parasite by allowing him to absorb so much power that his cells would burst, causing Parasite to, according to Doom's calculations, transform into a crystalline mass that would allow Doom to perfect the reactor by using its energy-manipulation abilities to control the reactor's power output. This plan was thwarted when the Parasite briefly absorbed Spider-Man's powers, causing his borrowed spider-sense to alert him to Doom's treachery and turn on Doom, although he was subsequently defeated by Superman using a gauntlet of Doom's that prevented the Parasite from absorbing his energy when he was attacked.

In both DC and Marvel Superheroes - Favorites List - Beauty in both factors were into considerations - however, I was ranking them based on my observations and familiarity index scale.

Note: In the Villain List right now ... all of them are a 10.

Your question was Bruce Wayne is more attractive than Clark Kent ... the answer to that question does not compute. I was literally ranking Superman and Batman 1st and Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne in the bottom of the barrel. Wonder Woman and Black Canary are my favorites in the Super Heroines list and their beauty was not the factor at all. I've to admit that they are my favorites and should be in the top 5 on my list of which they are. I tried very hard to place these characters in the list that I created; and if some reasons that anyone here disagree with me based on certain criteria - I understand their objections clear to the bell - but, I will not let anyone including you MRP in changing my mind on the ranking that I stand firm in because of my availability factors in the area that I grew up in the sixties and on today. I'm standing firm in my belief and I reserve the rights to change my opinion when I did Marvel Greatest Superheroes because I totally forgot about Captain Ultra. So, in the last minute change to the rankings - I dropped Puck in favor of Captain Ultra and I believe that I placed him #43 in that countdown.

I tried my best in placing these characters in the best of my knowledge and I'm very proud of my lists. I'm 55 years old man with a vast knowledge of comic books, movies, television, and whatnot of all walk of life and I tried my best to make these list as equal as possible.

Number 37 - The Trickster



Alter Ego - Giovanni Giuseppe
Group Affiliation - Rogues, Secret Society of Super Villains

Created by - John Broome
Illustrated by - Carmine Infantino 

Abilities
Above-average intelligence, Gadgets give him the ability to perform amazing tricks like walking on air
Skilled con-artist and acrobat

Interesting Fact - The original Trickster is a practical joker and conman whose favorite occupation is damaging enemies like the Flash with items such as explosive teddy bears. He was a circus acrobat who decided to become a criminal just like his "reverse namesake" Jesse James. He created shoes that allowed him to walk on air to first help him in the trapeze shows his family was in, as every member of his family was a trapeze expert and his father wanted him to be one also, and other dangerous gag gadgets for his crimes.

Reason for Rank: Amazingly Clever foe for the Flash and one of the most popular Flash Villains ever.

Why did you assign creator credit for this character to Bob Kane? Is there something you specifically know rather than to give credit to the actual author of the story?

I'll have to disagree with you're assumption and credit the actual writer, David Wood, with this character creation. If Bob Kane had any involvement at allwith the story, it was to draw a few head shots only within the panels. By 1959 he was rarely doing even that

His name was contractually obligated to be there.
