15 Marvel Comic Supervillains That You Never Knew Before

There is no more well-stocked rogues' gallery in all of fiction than Marvel Comics' pool of supervillains amassed during the previous half-century. The Green Goblin, Thanos, Magneto, Mystique, Red Skull, Baron Zemo - there are more famous and iconic villains to pick from than there are heroes to fight them. While everyone is familiar with and loves the villains from their childhood, there is a slew of new Marvel Comics villains that have created a name for themselves in the last decade or so.
Comic book superheroes, by their very nature, require fresh adversaries to fight on a regular basis. So, while the big-name historical adversaries have already committed plenty of evil, there's always space for additional villains and villainy.

1. Knull

Knull was created as a deity of evil from the primordial abyss that existed between the sixth and seventh Marvel Multiverse versions. When the Celestials arrived to provide some life to the world, one of Knull's first deeds was to construct a blade from his own shadow, All-Black the Necrosword, and use it to behead one of them.
The cosmic space station Knowhere was born from the beheaded Celestial skull. The sword, on the other hand, is today known as the universe's first symbiote. When he lost the sword, Gorr the God Butcher, one of Thor's deadliest opponents, used it as a source of strength.

A humanoid extraterrestrial named Gorr was born on a destitute planet on the verge of hunger millennia ago in canon and first disclosed in the actual world in 2012. He spent the majority of his mortal life in misery, losing everyone he cared about to hunger and natural calamity. Gorr then beheld two gods slugging it out in the skies above him while he was on the verge of death.

3. The Black Winter

The Marvel Multiverse is now in its eighth incarnation, dubbed the "Eighth Cosmos." Most Marvel Comics adventures took place in the Seventh Cosmos before Secret Wars and the end of everything.
But, of course, there was the Sixth Cosmos, a version of the Multiverse that came to a horrible end, with only one person surviving. Galan was the name of the creature, but he'd be known as Galactus in the Seventh Cosmos.

4. The One Below All

There are several gods in the Marvel Universe, including some monotheistic gods. It is also home to a large number of demons and other underworld lords. But when it comes to the Marvel Universe's very bottom, there's only one entity worth worrying about: the appropriately called One Below All.
The One-Above-All, the most renowned of the aforementioned monotheistic gods, is best understood as the dark, evil half of the One-Below-All. The One Below All, operating at the lowest level of reality, has mostly affected events on Earth through his "Green Doors" and the cosmic energy that his "Below-Place" emits: gamma radiation.

5. The Black Order

Few supervillains have ever gone from unknown to household names as swiftly as Thanos' Black Order. The team first appeared in the Infinity crossover in 2013, and by 2018, they were featured as the main adversaries in Avengers: Infinity War, which was released in theaters.
The comic book Black Order, unlike its film counterparts, is not Thanos' progeny. Instead, the Mad Titan enlisted the most deadly beings he came across on his journey of conquest across the cosmos, offering them the option of serving as generals or dying horribly. At least five of them made the decision to follow him.

6. Mister Misery

Using magic is expensive, as Doctor Stephen Strange likes to point out, and that's a serious problem when you're the Sorcerer Supreme, who is called upon to employ the mystic arts on a regular basis.
Strange scammed his way out of paying the magical toll by constructing a creature that dwelt in his cellar and absorbed all of the agony and suffering that were supposed to be side effects of the spells he cast. With the passage of time, this monster grew self-aware and began referring to itself as "Mister Misery."

7. Hydra Steve Rogers

Captain America shook up the Marvel Multiverse in 2016 with two simple words. First, he killed longtime comrade Jack Flag by throwing him out of an aircraft. Then he exclaimed, "Hail Hydra," as if he really meant it.
Despite their first appearances, he was not the same Steve Rogers that Marvel fans were familiar with. The Star-Spangled Avenger had been defeated by Kobik, a sentient Cosmic Cube who had fallen under the sway of the Red Skull.
When the Skull recommended that Kobik modify reality to make it appear as if Rogers had always been a Hydra covert agent, she gladly agreed. As a result, Rogers-616 was replaced with Rogers 61311, and Earth's Mightiest Heroes were completely unaware.

8. The Builders

The Builders are said to be the oldest species in the Marvel Universe, despite their appearance in 2012. The Builders, who were created by the Enigma Force, an incarnation of the universe itself, spent billions of years cultivating and shepherding life on numerous worlds.
They quickly expanded into other timelines and universes. The Builders, however, lost their path sometimes along the route.

9. Orchis

Mutants eventually ceased attempting to fit into a civilization that despised and despised them. Instead, Charles Xavier and Magneto established the island country of Krakoa, which was erected on the back of a living mutant island, and allowed every mutant to live there with full autonomy and amnesty.
Then, with a spate of Krakoan-grown wonder drugs and a slew of generosity, they purchased international reputation and prestige, and mutants were suddenly on top of the world.

10. Shiklah

It's not unusual for a superhero's family member to turn bad and become a supervillain. That family member is less likely to be a spouse. And it's even more unusual for that spouse to have been bad before the superhero decided to marry them. But that's exactly the situation with Shiklah, who made her debut in 2014 and married Deadpool shortly after, all while being a vampire queen.

11. The Apocalypse Twins

The Apocalypse Twins, who debuted in 2013, are not the progeny of the famous villain Apocalypse, despite their moniker. They're the progeny of founding X-Man Warren Worthington III - better known as Archangel - and Pestilence of the Four Horsemen, and they come from a time when Archangel was on his way to become the next Apocalypse.
Though Warren was cured of the disease before he could wipe out all human life on Earth, Kang the Conqueror took the twins and nurtured them outside of time.

12. Black Swan

In terms of arrivals to Earth-616, Black Swan made quite an impression in 2013. She arrived in Wakanda about the same time as another Earth emerged in the sky, threatening to crash down on the Black Panther and his country. Then Black Swan detonated a bomb on that other Earth, kicking off a multi-year plot cycle that would end with the utter devastation of the Marvel Multiverse.

13. Dario Agger

Dario Agger came in 2014 as a breath of fresh air in a world dominated by cosmic monsters that threaten the entire universe. The ethically corrupt CEO of Roxxon Corporation, motivated by little more than growing his capitalist empire, is a bit of a throwback. He's a minotaur, too.
Dario was once a wealthy Greek child whose parents were killed by pirates. He fled into a labyrinthine cave, where he prayed to a bull statue and was granted the ability to morph into a massive minotaur. Agger then kidnapped and tortured the pirates before setting out on a quest to amass as much riches and power as he could.

14. Ikari

Ikari, whose true identity is unknown, first emerged in 2013 as part of Bullseye's long-term plan to avenge Daredevil. Ikari was already a trained ninja when she was exposed to the same radioactive procedure that gave Matt Murdock his extrasensory abilities.
As a result, when he and Daredevil met and battled it out, Daredevil felt he was facing a carbon copy of himself. When he tried to grab a baseball bat without making a sound, Ikari urged him to "try the red one." Daredevil knew Ikari wasn't blind at that time, and he started to lose the fight horribly.

15. Tarn The Uncaring

Soon after the world's mutants arrived on the living island country of Krakoa, they discovered that Krakoa was only half of a former composite entity named Okarra, which had formerly been home to millions of mutants.
Apocalypse explained that he split Okarra in two thousands of years ago to stop a demonic invasion, banishing the Arakko half and its millions of mutant people - including Apocalypse's own family - to the dark world of Amenth. The Arakko mutants were able to make touch with Krakoa as he became stronger, and they made it obvious that they wanted Krakoa for themselves.
