Which Villains need a major revamp?

How about we drop the old crappy ones and come up with something new and interesting?

 

Notice that I used both old and crappy. Meaning get rid of those villains who have become lame and are no longer interesting as a character. I just feel that rehashing the same old villains is getting boring and tedious in many cases because the villains are often weak characters.

 

Uh...Most of the Spiderman Villians.

Quick question now that I think about it. What the hell are all the super villians gonna be doing durin the Civil War?

 

The Mandarin. Guy needs to get some goals beyond restoring China to former glory. This guy has the power to be a Doom or Magneto-class villain but almost never made it beyond getting his teeth kicked in by Iron Man.

 

There are alot of wierd-ass things he's tried to do that just don't make sense. I've seen him try to do that "let's make the world Medieval again" thing and I've seen him blast the crap out of Iron Man with a giant robotic flying dragon fortress.

Hence why he needs a focusing of his goals, what he wants to achieve and how he plans to achieve it.

 

I would say that Vulture needs a serious revamp.

Also Kraven. Kraven is potentially a really cool villain if he was re-written and had a new costume.

 

Bring back the High Evolutionary!!! That guy rocked!!! Him and what has thanos been doing lately?

 

Isnt the Mandarin dead now anyways, and his son took over the role? Thats a revamp right there.

 

Thanos is busy hanging out with Annhilus (jeez that's a crazy word, I think I can be excused for possibly getting it wrong.)

 

Scorpion. Get rid of Eddie's damn symbiot and give his back his old suit.

 

Well, there's a long list, but I don't think revamp is the right word. That implies starting from scratch. Bringing out the character's hidden coolness is how I'd describe it. Anyway, I think The Shocker is more than deserving of such a treatment. This is how The Shocker should be written.


Also, alot of Daredevil's villains could use a fresh aproach. Stilt Man, I thought, always had the potential to be the story of them man who always wanted to have a good job and a good life, but everything just spyraled out of his control.


Also, the Tinkerer has some serious potential to be a majorly creepy bad guy. Just play up on the fact that he is, indirectly, responsible for the deaths over thousands of people and couldn't care less.

 

mysterio really I know he is dead but come on he could be great.

 

that shocker fanfic was pretty good. pretty dead-on.

 

Also he should be written as a real threat, not some stupid bruiser. He made such an impact originally and is now wasted.



Also I'd like more focus on Rhino and Shocker, but they don't need revampping per-say...

 

Belasco could use a revision.

Crimson Dynamo, Sabertooth, and Rhino.

 

He's going to be coming back in the pages of FNSM towards the end of the year, IIRC.

 

Hey, maybe he made it out of cheap parts. And maintains the suit by stealing the parts he needs. He is a theif, you know. Besides, his motive, while having to do with money, isn't because he's greedy. Way I see it, he had higher ambitions for himself, but his life just spyraled out of control.
