30 Day VILLAINS challenge, day 26: Arch-enemies /Nemeses

Welcome to another 30 day challenge which in honor of spooky season will cover the topic of Pop Culture Villains!

As the month winds down we’re touching on some heavy hitters in terms of villains, namely that of the nemesis. The recurring arch-enemy, the heros opposite number, whatever you call them they’re the guys who get the hero’s blood boiling like nothing else. So the main prompt of today is: Who are your favorite Nemesis villains? What makes them your favorite? What defines them as nemeses in relation to the hero?

Bonus Prompt: Most forced/ worst justified nemesis? Most lopsided “I don’t think about you at all” villain/nemesis relationships?

Maniacal prompt: What villains should’ve been more recurring, made it more personal with the hero?

Machiavellian Prompt: Who should’ve had a different Nemesis from their rogues gallery? Who feels lacking in one at all?
