Name every hero's arch-nemesis!

Well, seeing as Fenris ain’t here to give us a comprehensive list of obscure heroes and their arch-nemesis, I’ll toss out a few to keep the Teeming Millions satisfied.

Atari Force: The Dark Destroyer

Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld: Dark Opal

Maggie Simpson:That Baby With One Eyebrow.

I suppose the criteria for determining an arch-nemesis is
multiple engagements:

Captain James T. Kirk vs Kahn Noonian Singh
Captain Jean-luc Picard vs Q
Captain Benjamin Sisko vs Gul Ducat
Captain Kathryn Janeway vs Borg Queen
Dr. Who vs The Master
Elvis Presley vs The Beatles
Evel Kinevel vs gravity
Commander Adama vs Lord Baltar
Optimus Prime vs Megatro
Howard Stern vs the FCC

Iron Man = The Mandarin
Groo = cheese dip

Buffy::Angelus
Angel::Angelus
Robert Mapplethorpe::Cincinnati

Flash: Reverse-Flash
Legion of Super-Heroes: Time Trapper. I’m very tempted by the thought of the Fatal Five or Mordru, but somehow the “time travel” element seems so essential to the Legion’s history that it makes the Time Trapper seem like the villain who most challenges the essence of the team.
Adam Warlock: Thanos
Hank Pym: Ultron
He-Man: Skeletor
Green Lantern Alan Scott: Solomon Grundy

Sherlock Holmes/Professor Moriarty

Nero Wolfe/Arnold Zeck

Robin Hood/Sheriff of Nottingham

Dick Tracy/Pruneface

Harry Potter/Voldemort

James Bond/Blofeld

Encyclopedia Brown/Bugs Meany

Steve McGarrett/Wo Fat

Flash Gordon/Ming the Merciless

The Maxx/Mr. Gone

Generation X/Emplate

Duncan MacLeod/Kalas? (Horton? Xavier?)

Connor MacLeod/Depends which movie(s) you believe in. Kell makes the most convincing case…

Austin Powers/Dr. Evil

Luke/Vader

Han/Jabba

Frodo/Sauron

Londo Molari/G’kar (Which one’s the hero, though?) :slight_smile:

GI Joe/Cobra Commander

He-man/Skeletor

The Powerpuff Girls/Mojo Jojo

Nick Knight/LaCroix

Ripley/The aliens

(BTW, the best example on this whole thread, I think is Sisko/Dukat. What a great relationship! 7 years of hatred, mistrust, and kinship…)

Doc Savage: John Sunlight

The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers: Norbert the Narc

The Avengers (Marvel Comics): Kang the Conqueror

The Sub-Mariner: Destiny

The old X-Men: Magneto

Cerebus the Aardvark: himself

Buck Rogers/Killer Kane
Nayland Smith/Dr. Fu Manchu
Dr. Jeckyl/Mr. Hyde
Rog Blake/Servilan
James West/Dr. Miguelito Loveless (Michael Dunn only!!!)
Human Torch/Sub-Mariner
James Bond/Ernst Stavro Blofeld
U.N.C.L.E./Thrush
Control/Kaos
Terry Lee/The Dragon Lady

No, no, no…Spider-Man’s nemesis has always been Peter Parker. Not in the traditional villain role, but in the sense that his life is always a struggle between the webs and the man beneath them. Does he visit his sick aunt in the hospital or stop Dr. Octopus? Go on a date or stop the Green Goblin? This is why Peter is notorious for tossing his costume in a trash can…and, of course, why he always puts the costume back on.

Lester Girls::Lily Lee, the Lizard Lady

Also General Poon Tang and (the slippery) Ben Wa.

Adam Warlock VS The Magus
Warlock and Thanos have been allies numerous times. Warlock’s old nemesis was ManBeast. ManBeast is one of the few nemeses to stay beaten. Warlock’s then gained a new nemesis in the Magus. Magus keeps returning, and Warlock has to team up with Thanos to beat him. If you have to consistently team up with a villian to beat a second villain, villain #2 is your Nemesis.

The Heckler Vs Boss Glitter
The Heckler fought Bushwack’r once IIRC. He also fought El Gusano, Cabbage Head, only once. But, the same evil mastermind controlled those villains: Boss Glitter. They never actually met, but the writers were clearly setting Glitter up as the nemesis.

The Heckler Vs Low Sales
That is what ended the comic. The Heckler plunges a thousand feet or so and lands in a pile of trash
Heckler-Don’t worry kids! It’ll take more than that to kill the Heckler!
Editor-Yeah, it’d take lousy sales figures.
Heckler-Yeah, that’d do it.
Flaming Carrot Vs Don Whiskerando

Captain Ultra Vs A Bic Lighter

I’m amazed at how many heroes have permanent, evil doubles-Hulk/Maestro, Flash/Reverse Flash, Warlock/Magus, SpiderMan/Venom etc. The Maestro IMHO should have stayed dead. The Green Goblin should have remained Spidey’s arch foe.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- Shredder

The World War I Flying Ace- The Red Baron

Homer Simpson- Mr. Burns (in the rare instances he can remember who Homer is)

Cecil Adams vs Marilyn Vos Savant

Groo doesn’t have an arch-nemesis on the grounds that none of them live long enough to become one.

John Crichton / Scorpius

Worf / Duras and his sisters, L’ursa and B’etorr

Zorro / Captain Esteban

Particle Man = Triangle Man (They Might Be Giants) :smiley:

Zev Steinhardt

Wasn’t Captain Ultra cured of his pyrophobia back in Marvel Comics Presents #50?

I am such a geek…
