Top 10 SCARIEST SUPERHEROES PART 2
Welcome back nerd squad, my name is Roya Destroyaa and this
is Top 10 Nerd.
Villains always get the credit for being the spooky and the frightening, but we already
know that there are some superheroes out there who, even if they’re fighting the good fight,
are pretty freaky to look at or be around.
So let’s take a look at the top 10 SCARIEST SUPERHEROES, AND THIS IS PART 2.
In the number 10 spot we have ETRIGAN.
With an appearance straight out of your darkest nightmare’s, Dc’s demon from Hell and
master poet opens up our list.
And he’s not the last hero here with ties to Hell.
He’s partnered with the Justice League, but it’s hard to imagine someone who looks
like him on that team.
Going even further, he has a huge tendency toward sadomasochism, so even when he’s
fighting the bad guys, we feel for them; this guy shows no mercy, even while under the greatest
pain.
In fact, he enjoys it.
Coming in at number 9 is HELLSTORM.
Again with the hell, I’m sensing a bit of a pattern here!
Marvel’s Daimon Hellstrom is the son of Satan and a human woman, but surprisingly
while he was trained in all things dark, felt more compelled to relate to his human side.
He decided to use his powers for good, but the devil was strong in his blood, always
threatening to take over; and he never knew when his devil blood would win, resulting
in frightening unpredictability.
Next, at number 8 we got THE SPECTRE.
DC’s original spectre, Jim Corrigan, was a cop who was ambushed by thugs in the middle
of the night, shoved into a barrel filled with cement, and thrown into the water.
Already pretty dark, right?
What makes him even darker is that he was refused entry into the afterlife, instead
sent back down bonded to the Spectre force to eliminate evil on earth.
So not only does he not get to go to heaven, he has to fight bad guys too.
His vengeance comes in extremely bloody fashion, and soon it was second nature to him; so much
so that when offered an out, he refused.
In the number 7 spot is MOONKNIGHT.
Some may call Moonknight Marvel’s knockoff version of Batman, but the man is much darker
than the DC hero.
He derives his power from the Egyptian moon god Khonshu, so he’s got the spirit of a
god inside who urges him to kill depending on the moon cycle, plus he differs from dissociative
identity disorder.
So he’s constantly trapped in a scary and mad battle between his multiple personalities.
Unfortunately probably why neither side tried to recruit him during civil war.
Coming in at number 6 we have THE DARKNESS.
The Darkness is an ancient power, the spirit of chaos, that bonds to a lucky recipient,
and that recipient happened to be Jackie Estacado, former hitman for the mob.
With the Darkness he has access to summoning demons from hell to do his violent biddings,
and many other powers—as long as he stays away from the light.
But if he gets a woman pregnant, which is easy for someone as horny as he is, his kid
would acquire the darkness, killing Jackie.
Keep it in the pants, boy.
Next up, at number 5 is HAUNT.
Taking a trip into Image comics land, we have Haunt, a result of two brothers; one dead,
one alive.
The reason he exists is a literal haunting.
Haunt is a combination of a priest named Daniel Kilgore and his brother who he hates, Kurt,
who was a secret agent until his murder.
Kurt continuously haunts Daniel, if you can get where the name came from.
The two are bonded through extoplasm and now commandeer a body together.
Nothing like that for a little brotherly bonding.
Up next at number 4 is HELLBOY.
We’re venturing over to Darkhorse here for this next guy.
As you can tell with the name Hellboy, this guy’s not one to mess around with.
Hellboy’s biological dad was a duke of hell, and he was conceived on his witch mother’s
death bed.
More than a little disturbing.
The resulting devilish creature was dubbed Hellboy, how fitting, and while he means well,
his demonic appearance often gets the better of people.
But if you can ignore the red skin, oversized stone hand, and peanut-like aroma, you may
find he’s actually pretty good company.
In the number 3 spot, we have CLOAK.
After becoming the first kid to survive drug experimentation in the lab of Simon Marshall,
Marvel’s Tyrone Johnson became the Cloak, who gained some hefty powers but also an insatiable
hunger to feed on the life force of, well, the living.
Basically he absorbs it into the darkness to fuel his powers.
Would not want to be around him no matter how nice he was.
Luckily his partner, Dagger, expels a light force that satiates his hunger.
So imagine just trying to separate the two.
Coming in at number 2 is DOGWELDER.
If you want creepy and disturbing, here it is.
How this guy is known as a superhero is beyond me.
Dogwelder was a member of DC’s Section 8 who never speaks, never shows his face, and
terrorizes evildoers by welding dead dogs to them.
Great way to use that college welding degree.
He will catch stray dogs and use them for this purpose, so they may not be going to
the pound but they’re definitely not any better off with him.
Ladies and gentlemen, please keep a watchful eye on Rover.
And finally, in the number 1 spot, we’ve got SPAWN.
There he is kids, happy birthday!
Hope you’re happy.
But in all honesty, you’re right; this guy’s terrifying.
Albert Francis Simmons had it pretty rough from the get go, he was a Marine whose friend
and partner was hired to kill him.
Of course his soul is sent straight to hell; there he made a deal where he traded his soul
to see his wife again.
What resulted was a demonic appearance, little memory of his past life, and a whole lot of
bloodlust on the mind.
And that’s one nasty cape and chain.
So those were the top 10 scariest superheroes part 2.
