    As the MCU's Phase 5 continues with Loki Season 2's debut, and the DCU reboots itself under James Gunn, it's important to remember that they didn't always hold a monopoly on superhero movies. Or even comic book movies. But as any fan can tell you, the best superhero movies always have a great supervillain. So we figured it was time to look at the best superhero movie villains ever.

    The modern age tradition of "hey, that villain was actually more right than wrong" was popularized in a big way with Alan Moore's revolutionary Watchmen comic series from the late '80s and the arch-villain Ozymandias, a "hero" with his 4D chess eyes on the greater good and the actual saving of humanity. Like an A.I. programmed to predict the best overall outcome for a hypothetical armageddon, Ozymandias, played by Matthew Goode in Zack Snyder's film adaptation, sacrificed millions of lives in order to bring the nuclear doomsday clock to a stop. And the best part, of course, was the subversion of the cliched villain monologue. Instead of being his undoing, providing a window for the heroes to stop him, it was simply an explanation after the fact.

    The words "I did it 35 minutes ago" haunted a generation.
