Dumbest comic book supervillains

…and he has his own theme song.

Goo goo G’joob.

Beat me to it. Anyway, Lennon spilled his secret identity: The Walrus was Paul.

He also did very little to hide his secret identity.

It could also be Egg Fu’s theme song.

I would’ve thought this more likely:

I wonder what the proportions are for villains in this thread being taken seriously versus not (parodies like Dr. Bong notwithstanding). I remember Spider-Man laughing at/easily dealing with Stilt-Man and Paste-Po… er, the Trapster.

Have they ever teamed him with the Carpenter?
I can’t think of a super-villain named The Oyster, though John Byrne had a villainess named Pink Pearl …

He might have laughed, but Spider Man got soundly defeated by the Trapster in this issue.

Wow, that’s bad. I remember a Fantastic Four story where the Trapster was defeated by the Baxter Building’s autonated defenses. It seemed like the writer wanted to show just how lame the Trapster was.

Most of these can be chalked up to silver age (or earlier) silliness, but there’s no such excuse for Typeface, who didn’t show up until late 2000.

Wow, these are hilarious! I would mention Rhino, a Spiderman villain, only because this is the very first thing I ever read on the Comics Curmudgeon site a few years ago, and near died laughing.

Truly a font of inspiration!

I can’t even imagine a comic sans Typeface.

We have a winner.

First, he did have a potent power besides a healing factor. Looking into his eyes makes you act crazy. This was played for laughs in She Hulk. In Ghost Rider, Madcap made people mutilate themselves, jump out windows, and caused a cop to shoot random bystanders.

Second, he has one of the best backstories ever! He was a devout Christian. Then while he and his family were on the way to biblecamp, their bus crashed into a truck holding an AIM experiment. Everybody but Madcap died. He became an atheist and decided that life had no meaning. Now, he wanders around sharing that message.

Damn. I’m a huge Spider-Fan, and your post comes just when I’d forgotten all about that clown. (Pardon the pun) Gee, thanks “Labdad”. :frowning:

-Slaughter

Forgive the hijack, but are there any fans of the web series the Shell Show here on the SD?

The Shell Show is a animated action figure talk show (yes, you read that right) that lampoons more of the sillier aspects of comic books, especially comic book characters. It mostly tackles heroes, but some of the more famous villains get a chance to be mocked visciously.

The character Shell is a blank ‘action model’ figure with no distinguishing characteristics. He is the irascible Letterman-esque host of a talk show where his guests are action figure versions of comic book characters. Shell has a way of getting under the skin of a character, exposing the fundamental stupidity of his very concept, and then typically ends an interview by shooting his guest in the face.

Funny!

That violates the Eighth Amendment, being cruel and unusual punnishment! :smiley:

What a twist!

You don’t think hipsters make good supervillains?

He even got a TV show.
