2. Billy Butcher

Weakness: Hughie

Billy Butcher is one of the toughest, creative, and slick characters in all of comics. It’s kept him alive in a world of super-powered people that could kill him with a look and its the reason most of the supes are afraid of him. If they only knew that his weakness has been right by his side for the latter part of his life.

Hughie is the one thing in the world that can stop him. It’s not because he’s stronger. Butcher has a soft spot for Hughie. It’s the reason he didn’t go through with his plan to kill anyone with Compound V in their system – something that could happen in the Amazon Prime Video series.

1. The Punisher

Weakness: He’s mortal

The only comic book character that can challenge Butcher in terms of ruthless cunning is Frank Castle. His war on crime is a mission that would have killed any other mortal. But not The Punisher. His need to be meticulous is why he has also survived fighting people stronger than him. If he’s so good, then what’s his weakness? It’s simple. Frank Castle is still mortal.

No matter how good he is, Frank Castle is always reminded that he isn’t a god and doesn’t have unbreakable skin. Frank needs time to rest, heal, and Father Time is undefeated. Eventually, all of Frank Castle’s mortality always catches up with him. Although, Jason Aaron’s current Punisher run could make him immortal.
