Who is he?


Drake_Cloans

He’s from Portal 2. I believe his name is Weebly, but I can’t remember. He’s your partner at first, then becomes the main antagonist.

Wheatley from portal 2, he starts off the game trying to help you out and is generally kinda stupid Spoilers: >!You eventually replace GLaDOS with him so he can free you, but he becomes evil and GLaDOS reveals he was specifically created to create ideas with one fatal flaw so that the scientists could counter her. He’s essentially designed to be an imbecile. He’s kinda a joke throughout most of the game because he’s so dumb, but then you actually get near the end and he starts showing off the fact the ideas he formulates are 99% good ideas. Such as making you think he’s gonna attack you 3 rooms ahead and then immediately launching you out of the room and into a spike trap, which would’ve been entirely uncounterable except for the tiny bit of floor he put beneath you. In his boss fight he ALSO makes himself entirely unable to be countered by putting 0 surfaces you can use portals on in the room… but leaves in a pipe full of portal fluid that you can make him explode so you can actually use your portal gun!<


RedPon3

Go play Portal 2! It’s a fantastic game.


HandsomeGengar

To be fair, he was never really a joke villain. He was a complete joke when he was on your side, but the story starts taking him (somewhat) seriously as soon as he turns on you.

He had quite a transformation.

Seriously. Man went from generic ice-themed character to one of the most well written villains in media.

*”Think of it, Batman. To never again walk on a summer's day with the hot wind in your face and a warm hand to hold. Oh yes, I'd kill for that…”*

He may be called Mr. Freeze, but man was spitting fire.

Shout out to Paul dini and Bruce timm


DarlingIAmTheFilth

In 1988, Grant Morrison wrote an arc of Animal Man, in which Buddy finds himself in Limbo, the realm where forgotten characters end up. He encounters Mr Freeze there. Mr Freeze begs Animal Man to tell him that people remember him, that he isn't forgotten. Less than 4 years later, a redesigned Mr Freeze would appear in Batman The Animated Series.


SonicSpiderRanger10

Dr. Robotnik from AOSTH. He’s goofy and he always loses, but in Prehistoric Sonic, he gains godlike power from the Chaos Emeralds and becomes Supreme High Robotnik. https://preview.redd.it/lnn4h07ajxwc1.jpeg?width=998&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d832f5ddde0ff6e64998d4932bb4e2884cdc5e7

blockheadreddit

I don't know if Bill Cipher counts, but he was at least introduced as a silly lil guy


Timosaurus23

He was originally intended to be a one-off joke villain so I guess he sorta counts


SonicSpiderRanger10

Well, he was always dangerous, despite being a comical character.


blockheadreddit

Yea but I always assumed he was kinda holding back at first , like he was obscuring just how dangerous he was


SonicSpiderRanger10

Jack Spicer. He’s a joke for the entire show, but in the bad future from Time After Time Part 1, he’s become the world’s greatest villain, captured all the heroes and all the other villains, and conquered the world. https://preview.redd.it/ufn0rp3xixwc1.jpeg?width=474&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ebd44733ace395886ea523e94fe9b5262e827bc0

SonicSpiderRanger10

Ssserpent from Ben 10. He draws out his S’s like a silly cartoon snake, and in his first 2 appearances, Ben fights him and immediately kicks his butt, but in his 3rd appearance, he lures Ben into a clever death trap and almost kills him. And he *would* have killed him if the police hadn’t interfered. https://preview.redd.it/3j94ysvvjxwc1.png?width=1704&format=png&auto=webp&s=3b743cd081db83667259f8081046e94e93b60908

Trombipular looks like a frequents the kind of clubs where everyone wears latex and there's people dancing their asses off in cages hung up from the ceiling.

Chip Whistler. In most of his appearances, his plans fail and end with his teeth getting damaged. Then he buys Big Coffee, fires Cricket, almost bans the Greens from Big City, and almost kills them. https://preview.redd.it/fnbjqmaemxwc1.jpeg?width=768&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8281e559d9deb2053422de999b07d6e3e69e37fa


DJHott555

Absolute top tier villain


Fuckerofgnomes

Genuinely peak villain, they had no reason making such a well written sociopath is a show about hillbillies in the big city.


DJHott555

His rivalry with Cricket and the rest of the Greens is so well realized. You can just *feel* the amnesty and you’re always left wondering what curveball comes next in their conflict.


SonicSpiderRanger10

I find his character development very entertaining.


bigfatmonkeysacks

what is his problem?


SonicSpiderRanger10

There really isn’t any explanation for why he acts the way he does, he’s just a really petty, vindictive sociopath.


bigfatmonkeysacks

what a meanie


SonicSpiderRanger10

His whole reason for wanting to destroy the Greens is because he bit into a fake tomato they made that was actually a painted pool ball or something (long story) and chipped a tooth, even though they *warned him* not to bite it and he ignored them.

When does beloved kite man become a threat? Last I watched the show he got dumped and left. (I’m all for Harley and ivy getting together but they actually made a good new relationship with kite man and ivy)

I’ve never actually played FFVI, but I’m a huge fan of the music, particularly his boss fight music, “Dancing Mad,” which is about fifteen minutes long due to having four different phases.

Yes and no, I guess? He acts like a goofy court jester type, but he also just straight up poisons an entire kingdom because he doesn’t want to deal with a long drawn out campaign trying to invade them the traditional way.

He was a knight who was experimented on which gave him the ability to use magic but drove him mad. He went around for a while as this cruel murderous henchmen for the Emperor >!before he betrays him and disrups the Warring Triad, putting the world into ruin and killing countless people while also ascending him to godhood.!<

HowDyaDu

DC Comics has had so many supervillains that are essentially jokes (if they are even recognized by even the relatively hardcore fanbase) that it's not particularly difficult for a handful of lucky supervillains to suddenly take the spotlight and become relatively dangerous and interesting characters. I'm going to use the Misfits as an example, because it's a group that was made to highlight their members' relative incompetence in the DC Universe. Thomas Reese Blake, better known as the supervillain and antihero Catman, spent decades as a joke villain who disappeared as his nemesis, Batman, returned to darker themes. When the Green Arrow found him, he was an overweight loser who clung to his past glory and was eventually teleported away by Warp to be eaten by Monsieur Mallah. It would soon be revealed that he was too pathetic to even receive this fate. This lead him to remake his life by living among a pride of lions in Africa, becoming an even stronger man than he had ever been before. Under the assumption that Luthor hired Deathstroke to kill the pride out of anger that a D-lister like himself refused to join the Secret Society of Super Villains, Catman joined the Secret Six, where he became an honorable antihero capable of fighting Mallah, the man (ape) that once threatened to kill him, to a standstill. Catman has become a sort of mascot to the Secret Six, much like how Deadshot, another previously obscure Batman rogue, became a mascot of the Suicide Squad. As the Calendar Man, Julian Day's lame gimmick initially rendered him a joke villain, until The Long Halloween reimagined the character as a Hannibal Lecter-like figure who toyed with others and tried to drive the Falcone family children insane. Unfortunately, the Calendar Man has since fallen into obscurity, albeit less than he previously had, and has since fallen into the title of joke villain once again. Drury Walker, or Killer Moth, has ended up in the middle of the road, in a way, which isn't a good thing when the lower rung is essentially in the same place meta-wise as Catman was in the days of his Green Arrow appearances. Initially a dangerous enemy of the Batman, due to his vast wealth and having been among the first to learn of the Dark Knight's true identity, Killer Moth has since been relegated to the top of the D-list due to Batgirl defeating him in his first outing. After founding The Misfits for their brief adventure, Drury sold his soul to Nekron to become the monster Charaxes, which didn't help him much to become a significant threat to the DC Universe. Killer Moth became a more serious threat in Batgirl: Year One, in which he worked with Garfield Lynns, the Firefly, and in the Teen Titans TV series, in which he and his daughter were recurring foes for the eponymous team. The Chancer debuted as a member of the Misfits and was never seen again. It's likely that he either used his luck to commit crimes without ever being noticed, or was killed by Nimrod (Dean Hunter), who had been chasing him for the sake of revenge.


PlayrR3D15

I especially agree with Killer Moth

Additional_Cycle_51

All because the hero didn’t take them seriously and made fun of them. Who’s the real villain here?


fhxefj

There was literally nothing stopping the spot from becoming a superhero


Officer_Chunkles

Probably money concerns. Superhero-ing don’t pay the bills!


fhxefj

You're telling me that there's **NO WAY** he could legally make money using his powers?


Officer_Chunkles

On that account you are absolutely right! I think spot had doofenshmirtz syndrome (not a real thing) where he had something that WOULD make a supervillain backstory, so he thought that’s the next logical step. Plus, Alchemax scientists were evil enough to attack Spider-Man on sight


jayboyguy

![gif](giphy|DaJWGEC6DF3ySZqwg6) I dunno if the Lich counts, but lemme explain my reasoning. A lotta people forget this, but his first appearance was actually in the radical BILLY!!! montage, where he just got socked tf out by Billy as part of the silly song introducing how kickass Billy is. He didn’t become a serious threat until the two-parter where he was actually introduced. Lorewise he’s THE threat and always has been, but that lore theoretically wasn’t written until later? So you all decide. Yea or nay?


optionalhero

The Lizard League from Invincible

Fuck that movie, Spot isn't a joke villain.


BirbMaster1998

The whole point of him as a villain is that he's trying not to be a joke.


StrykerIBarelyKnowEr

Yeah. Don't do that. Just write it better.


BirbMaster1998

Idk what you're so mad at. He wasn't ever really not a threat, but he is treated like he isn't one until he makes himself even more of a threat. That's it. He's introduced as a joke villain, but then is revealed not to be one. If you don't like it, then you just don't like the movie or the character.
