12 Marvel characters ranked from bad to pure evil
11. Loki
Loki, the God of Mischief, may not crack the top five of the most evil Marvel villains, but make no mistake, he has certainly earned his place among the most notorious. I know we all love Tom Hiddleston and his performance as the character in the MCU, but his charm cannot excuse Loki’s wrongdoings. This vibrant evil-doer causes chaos and destruction, leaving a trail of manipulation and treachery in his wake. He lives up to his Norse Mythology counterpart to the extreme.
One of Loki’s most defining traits is his unparalleled skill at manipulation and deception. With cunning and guile, he has effortlessly played others like pawns on a chessboard, all for his personal gain. From his planting seeds among allies, or exploiting weaknesses for his own gain, Loki’s manipulation tactics have led to catastrophic consequences, leaving those around him in a state of confusion and despair.
In the pages of Marvel comics, the Trickster orchestrated a mass genocide that resulted in the deaths of thousands of innocent beings. This ruthless act showcases his willingness to sacrifice lives for his twisted ambitions, leaving a lasting impact on readers and emphasizing the depth of his evil nature.
Treachery and backstabbing have become second nature to Loki. He has shown no qualms in betraying his own family and allies, proving himself to be a master of betrayal. This constant duplicity not only keeps others on their toes but also showcases Loki’s lack of loyalty and his readiness to turn against those who have put their trust in him.
In the vast realm of Marvel villains, one figure stands out for his brilliant yet evil ways. The Mandarin. This enigmatic mastermind not only leads the infamous terrorist organization known as the Ten Rings but also embodies the essence of true evil within the comic book pages.
