Most Influential Villian Ever?

This is a thread to see which villain has had the most impact in their respective verses as well as influence on the events, heroes, etc.

No cosmics.

My vote goes to either Magneto, Dr. Doom, Lex Luthor, or Thanos.

Krona, by far. Or perhaps Anti-Monitor.

Not a battle

The answer, is Doom.

Obviously Luthor. The guy became a president for pete's sake.

@paragonnate: Who is he going to influence ? No one cares about him.

@hulkage:

Doom helped inspired Darth Vader, need we say more?

Need to Full edit to General Discussion...

Joker, Lex, Reverse Flash, Doom, Loki, and Thanos

Wait, scratch that, Thanos is the most influential, since he almost killed everyone in his universe.

Injustice Joker easily

For marvel its Thanos. Wiped out the entire universe with HOTU and killed half the universe with the IG.

For DC its definitely anti-monitor for causing Crisis.

Anti-Moniter for DC, could be Darkseid.

My top three are Doom, Thanos, and the Joker.

Thanos or Doom on the list but I think Norman Osborn should be a choice :/

Beat me to it.

Bump

joker

naraku- inuyasha

zerf- fairytale

Kira- death note

Griffin-Beserk

Marvel: It'd have to be Loki. He formed the Avengers by a scheme gone wrong. He set up the Acts of Vengence. He's Tom Hiddlestone!

Hmm Injustice Joker & Lex Luthor in general.

@xiix said:

Thats the most disgusting thing ive ever seen.

Anti-Monitor and Thanos probably

Antimonitor

1. Magneto
2. The Joker
3. Dr. Doom
4. Lex Luthor

Magneto and Luthor.

Joker

I'd say Reverse-Flash, just to be different. He did cause the Flashpoint event, after all.

Lex Luther.

I thought it was revealed that Barry actually caused it.

I could be wrong since it's been a while.

@xiix: ...what is that?

She says her name.

BB

ALL HOPES LIES IN DOOM !

Joker has had the most effect on the real world. He's appeared in more movies than any other villains.

Lex Luthor wins.

Then Thanos.

Then Joker.

Then Green Goblin.

@billy_batson: I'm too lazy to look her up in the wiki -.-

-Thanos

-Doom

Hollywood Rock

Luther because he become the president of murica

The Joker is the most popular but I don't think his actions have had the most impact or influence. I think these villains have had more impact:

Reverse Flash - Flash point - affected all of the DC universe

Thanos

Dr. Doom - remember secret Wars 1, 2, and 3.

Ultron - Remember the world in Age of Ultron

Onslaught - Remember that pocket universe thingy Marvel tried for a year

Thanos, Dr Doom, Magneto, and Lex Luthor

As of now perhaps the Beyonders.

Doom and Anti-Monitor.

As for cultural influence, Joker.
