Super Villians
I am very excited to start what I call, "Super Villains Unite". In my blog I am going to be going through the three types of villians. Now that we can identify some of the characteristics of these super villians, we can go deeper and start looking at them individually. This is where it gets exciting :) But to make it a little more interesting, I will be going in alphabetical order. So I will start at A, and i will go from there , picking my favorite villians. Then that whole blog will be devoted to that particular villains life story and ill have plenty of pictures and some videos. I want to dig in really deep and actually get an understanding about who these people are and what are their problems. I want to know what their weaknesses are and who makes them get chills down their spines. Through this blog I will learn so much about the villains I love. Feel free to comment or ask questions about the blog for this will be an exciting and learning experience for all of us. Let's go!!

Dr. Doom Doctrine, and Venom Vendetta
Along with the Magneto Syndrome comes another type of villain. These are the villains you see all over and they are very, very destructive. They feed off of this hot tempered flame that they get, yet again, from the past. Lets take a look at Dr. Doom, the infamous villain that liked to give the Fantastic Four a hard time. Now when you look at his name, you instantly think, "Just another corny super villain that went nuts". Not a lot of people talk about him or fear him too much because he always loses. But he always comes back, and that's the problem. What is he coming back for, what is his problem, what is he trying to prove or disprove? When we get a little deeper into his story, we can see why he is one of the most powerful villains the Fantastic Four ever had to face. Villains with the Magneto syndrome believe that what they are doing is for the greater good. This does make them very dangerous and we can fit the Silver Surfer, Sandman, Rob Goblin, Bizzaro, and many others into that group. But then other villains simply want revenge and nothing more. Be fore Dr. Doom had a cape, fingers full of electricity, and maybe one of the coolest looking masks, he was Victor Von Doom, a very smart scientist who used to work with the characters who became the fantastic four. Although he was insanely smart, he was run by greed and jealousy. He wanted the girl that was to become invisible woman but Reed (Mr. Fantastic), was winning her over. Before the freak accident that changed them all, Reed and Victor were constantly in a competition over her and over who was the smartest. but at least they weren't trying to KILL each other yet... Then a freak accident happens in space and everything went bad, for poor old Victor. The fantastic Four became very popular with the public and Reed, got the girl. What did Victor get? Nothing but a scarred face and some pretty cool powers. Bam. The jealousy started to creep in and the hatred and the reality of loss filled his mind. There was no Fantastic Five, they had left him out. And better yet, they became famous and rich for it all. Yay. So he became Dr. Doom, the electrifying arc nemesis of the Fantastic Four. What made him so dangerous besides his clever contraptions and his lightning strikes? It was his knowledge of the Fantastic Four and that personal connection. We see the same pattern with the infamous villian, Venom. Before he became a gaping, sharp teethed, killing machine, Venom was just an ordinary photographer trying to make living. But then, spider man and Peter Parker take things away from him and his jealousy turns him into Spider-man's biggest nightmare. Dr. Doom Doctrine and Venom Vendetta Villains are dangerous because they feed off of long-term jealousy, hatred, and hurt. They will not stop until the people that have hurt them are destroyed. And that means more trouble for the heroes, us, and earth itself.
