Syndrome! The pre-made supervillain from Incredibles. Speaking of which, are the Incredibles now a part of the Marvel multi-verse? With the recent Phineas & Ferb special, Doofensmirtz can already claim to be a part of the multi-verse.

Cruella De Vil…Can be taken so far in the Marvel universe.

I came in here to mention Cruella. But I really think she’d fit better in the DC world. She and Lex would be frenemies with benefits. Then she’d gossip about it with The Joker over at The Bad Guy Beauty Palace and Posion Shoppe.

Scrooge is NOT a villain, not by any sense of the word. Fie on you for suggesting such a thing!

I’d nominate Snow White’s wicked queen – not once she’s turned herself into the hag, but as the cold, dominating beautiful ruler with the magic mirror (and a great super-villain costume if ever there were one!)

Chernabog, as depicted in Fantasia.

I may be along in this, but I like _ **Scar** _. I mean, he’s a villainous, scheming lion monarch with a nasty disposition and fratricidal temperament. He could be the Marvel answer to Monseiur Mallah AND The Brain in one. Plus, a talking evil lion: he could actually kill failed henchmen and _eat_ them.

I’d like to see Scar in the DC universe, just so he can throw down with [Tawky Tawny](http://www.postmodernbarney.com/2009/01/always-remember-3/)

She’s busy. Have you seen Disney’s TV series _Once Upon A Time_? She’s the main villain of the first season (I didn’t watch past that), and in contention for the sexiest woman on the show.

You can say what you want about Scrooge McDuck, but you’ve got to admit he has one of the greatest super powers around…being able to swim in money is just cool…There is no two ways about it.

What’s wrong with Syndrome & his Chief Minion & Spy, Mirage?

They’re already supervillains.

Magica De Spell.

Scrooge can hire the Avengers to protect his money bin from Magica and the Beagle Boys.

Tony Stark could have some real deep and meaningful discussions with Gyro Gearloose but at the end it would need to be Super Goof to the rescue.

Edit, actually stick in Black Pete and Emil Eagle in there somewhere along with the Phantom Blot.

Swim, heck: burrow through it like a gopher, and dive in it like a porpoise, and toss some of it up in the air and let it fall back on your head.

While I suggested Jafar in [a recent thread,](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=16174396) I’ve been beaten to it here, and so will settle for mentioning Yzma: brews up transformation potions in her secret lab – complete with the levers and the trapdoors and the musclebound henchman with his own theme music – and she’s got the voice of _Eartha Kitt_ to go with the dagger under her skirt.

I mean, you just can’t get more super-villain-y than that.

Cruella De Ville can trump anyone in Marvel without super powers.

I came here to suggest Syndrome, but got beat to it.

There’s a reason why the film he’s in is considered the worst in the Star Wars canon. Against any Marvel hero, he’d last less time them then the guy who went up against Indiana Jones with a sword.

Heh! There’s always the _TaleSpin_ [Shere Khan](http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Shere_Khan#TaleSpin)…maybe they could do a “versus” crossover.
