Charles LaRousse Dreyfus, all we would have to do is give him the life of Clouseau to be rid of him.
I’d go with the original super villain, Jules Verne’s Captain Nemo.
He is a minion. Not the “villain”. I am not the OP, but I don;t think he would count.
Alessan:
Yes, but the “problems” that caused the Republic to become the Empire wouldn’t have existed if Palpatine himself hadn’t caused them in the first place so that he could become an Emperor. Absolutely do not want.
I’ll go with Black Adam. He seemed to rule Kahndaq pretty nicely - even calling his status as a super-villain into some degree of question. His descent back into villainy was a reaction to some pretty horrible stuff that was done to him.
Oh, that Sauron! I thought the reference was to the other Sauron from Marvel Comic’s Savage Land.
Actually there’s somebody who can do much better in that regard: Dr. Claw, the arch-enemy of Inspector Gadget. I’m impressed by his dedication to non-discrimination and multiculturalism. One day he’s hiring a Dutchman to squash Gadget with a giant cheese ball, the next he’s recruiting a Peruvian to have Gadget trampled to death by llamas. Everybody would get fair and equal treatment under Dr. Claw’s rule.
Ssssssuuuurrrrreeeeeeee you did.
How about Stewie? Just give him - something - to suck on (with some benedryl when he gets cranky) and nothing will change.
Or Glynda. As long as you’re not a witch, she’s really uninvolved, even if there’s something signficant right in front of your nose.
If you want change, as Elendil’s Heir said, Sauron’s your guy!
Then again, there’s Syndrome. His goal is just to sell all his cool gadgets, make everyone Super, and then retire. The only problem is that the rich get all the really cool powers and the poor just end up with devices like “Control of Dairy Products”.
Which they’d just milk for all they could get.
what udder irresponsibility
Ok, enough of the hijack, just Moooooooooove along.
[sub]Hmm, maybe Cows With Guns could benevolently rule the world?![/sub]
Or, perhaps, this one?
What a cheesy thing to say.
Mmm. Adam’s not really a world conquering type, though, is he?
Yes, he liberated/conquered Khandaq, but that’s because they were HIS people. His rampage after the deaths of Isis and Osiris was purely revenge-fuelled destruction. I’m not as familiar with him before his initial heel-face-turn, but IIRC, he was in the ‘criminal’ mode of Supervillain, not the ‘conqueror’ style.
or this one, but i doubt he’d approve anyway…
I was eleven. Those of us who were in elementary school tend to remember that movie much more fondly than those old geezers who were actually fans of the music.
Tengu:
What, like robbing banks and stuff? I don’t think Adam ever bothered with that, or if he did, it was while Theo Adam was in charge of his mind. Adam originally fell out of favor (in the ancient days) with Shazam because he used his powers to become Kahndaq’s ruler rather than merely a protector. Perhaps he never really had designs on the entire world, but his MO does seem to be conquest, and (especially with Isis at his side) he seems to rule his conquest benevolently.
Doctor Thaddeus Bodog Sivanna.
As brilliant as Doom or Luthor, and seems to chiefly want a lot of statues & parades in his honor.
Cool.
I like parades.
… and he bears an uncanny resemblance to Donald Duck.
(“Resemblance” is the newest addition to my list of words which always look as if they are spelled wrong.)
I’ve never been able to figure out why they’re actively embarrassed about Phantom of the Park. It’s a big pile of goofy fun. I can’t imagine that anyone working on it could have thought it would be anything better than it was.
