7. Red Skull

When it comes to pure evil in Marvel comics, look no further than the notorious Red Skull. With his Hitler-supporting Nazi background, the Red Skull stands out as one of the most wicked villains in the Marvel universe. Some should call the Bastards to help Cap.

During World War II, the Red Skull led the Nazi party, spearheading a reign of terror that involved countless atrocities and mass murders. In the comic book storylines, we witness the depths of his horrid nature with his sinister plots that aim to conquer and destroy. His actions during this dark era solidify his status as a symbol of evil, reminding us of the horrors of the past.

But the Red Skull’s villainy doesn’t end with his Nazi affiliation. Imagine this guy wielding the power of the Tesseract. There’s no doubt he’d shape humanity in the image of the hate-filled monster he idolized so much. Yeah, the thought is enough to give you chills.

Red Skull’s insidious nature is clear in his engagement in human experimentation and torture. These sadistic acts serve as stepping stones for his own ambitious agenda, highlighting his disregard for human life and his relentless pursuit of power. The Red Skull’s willingness to inflict pain and suffering is a testament to why he deserves a spot on this list.
