if we're talking most dangerous, i'd have to go with either Thanos or Galactus. Doom is ambitious but normally limits himself to ruling the world. Thanos wanted all of existence. and he's just naturally tougher (doesn't need armor). Galactus because destruction, to him, is like breathing to us. a handful of cowardly villians might tremble at the name 'Doom' but Galactus scares the piss out of several species; earthborn and other.
if we're talking 'evilest,' i'd nominate the Purple Man or Red Skull. points go to Red Skull for having always been evil. Purple Man's a johnny-come-lately who would be a joke if not for Alias, imo.
as for 'greatest' villain, i'm going with Magneto. under Claremont, he was like Dr Doom done right imo. his background is instantly relatable as is his cause. physically, he's as dangerous as an atom bomb (ex. a weaker version ripped Apocalypse in half). i mean there's a reason why the government greated the Magneto protocols, the russians are trying to assassinate him, and Genosha is under mutant control. he's just a well-made villain and cooler than Doom in some ways i.e. doesn't have to beg for s*x, use robot duplicates, or make boastful speeches. the Acolytes worshipped him just because of his charisma. that's the kind of villain that i like.
