Rogues’ Gallery: The Top Ten ‘Fourth World’ Underlings
A hero is defined by their villains, and comic books are filled with some of the scariest and silliest bad guys around. Rogues’ Gallery aims to settle the score and determine who is the true arch-nemesis for some of our favorite heroes, and we need your help to do it!
You voted to see who the ultimate Fourth World villain was, and we’ve tabulated the results and assembled a video counting down the definitive top 10. Did your favorite make this list? There’s only one way to find out!
For some reason, only the first issue of Jack Kirby's Mister Miracle is on Comixolgy, so there's a bunch of great issues like "The Paranoid Pill!" and "Himon!" aren't available to read digitally. I've found the next best thing for some of these characters, but the next best thing to Jack Kirby isn't always the best story to represent what these characters are about.
