While you ponder that lets jump into today's list of the Top 10 Scary Comic Book Couples
Everyone Loves
#10 Namor and Emma Frost As were sure you know by now Namor is essentially
Marvels Aquaman.
He too is half-human, half-atlantean although more often than Aquaman, Namor is a villain.
Emma Frost was the second of three daughters in her family, all of which were mutants that
gained their telepathic abilities once reaching puberty.
For the most part Emma had a close relationship with Scott Summers that is until she met Namor
At first it may have been her telepathic powers being used to control her into falling for
Namor, but even without that the two have been dating behind Scotts back for quite a
while With Namors ability to control all water, sea life and boast some pretty big strength
combined with Emmas telepathy these two are one scary couple.
#9 Baroness and Destro Throughout every version of these two characters
beyond the 1980s the COBRA collaborators from the GI Joe series are one scary on-again-off-again
couples in comic book history.
Baroness is seen to be this spoiled offspring of a wealthy family who primarily works as
a spy with great influence in the COBRA organization.
Destro on the other hand is the sole weapons dealer for the Cobra command and because of
his close relationship with Baroness he is perhaps the only one that has seen the more
softer side to this evil lady.
Although our love for this couple comes by way of their desire to overthrow the COBRA
commander and become the new leaders.
Talk about a power couple.
#8 Black Adam and Isis This is one of those scary comic book couples
that oddly enough compliment each others strengths very well.
Black Adam is Captain Marvels main foe in the DC comics with pretty much the same powers
as Captain Marvel.
While he was not one to get caught up in relationships after being presented with a female slave
woman, Black Adam shows his softer side and decides to free the woman.
Its soon revealed that this mysterious slave is actually the living embodiment of the Ancient
Egyptian Goddess, Isis.
While both of these superpowered beings are no stranger to showing off their powers, Black
Adams love and compassion for Isis is what actually keeps her from being the petty villain
that she is.
Most of the time.
The other half is her using Egyptian magic to curse people.
#7 The Joker and Harley Quinn What began as a workplace fling soon snowballed
into without a doubt the most famous supervillain couples in comic book history.
The pairs toxic mixing of their own madness has been the perfect recipe for fans to really
have a love-hate relationship for The Joker and Quinn.
More often than not they are viewed as a largely unhealthy relationship, but how else would
you expect two complete psychos to be.
Their twisted views of the world and overall lack of compassion has made them quite the
scary and unstoppable duo.
#6 Spider-Man and Black Cat The countless on-again-off-again relationship
between Spidey and Black Cat has become a fan-favorite to watch develop over time.
After first meeting in The Amazing Spider-Man number 194 Peter tried to see the good in
Black Cat and thus gave in to her infatuation with him.
Although it became more and more obvious as time went on that Black Cat only wanted to
be seen with Spider-Man and not Peter Parker the unmasked child.
As we mentioned this relationship may have been a fan-favorite, but for the most part
it wasn't for Peter.
Telling someone you want to be in a relationship with that they must always wear a mask isn't
exactly the best grounds to start on.
Plus for the most part Black Cat hasnt been the most reliable partner.
More of a nuisance for Peter to deal with than anything else.
#5 Rogue and Gambit This scary mutant couple have had numerous
comics published around their relationship and by far are one of fans favorite couples
when it comes to mutants pairing up.
The reason why so many people fell in love with the comic book couple was due to Rogues
powers making things difficult for them to ever be too close.
As a result, though this meant their relationship could build without the overbearing and often
overdone sexually explicit scenes.
With just their personalities being the only way the two could express love with one another
it cemented them as a powerful couple in the comic book realm.
They are not a perfect couple by any stretch of the imagination, but differences aside
they were able to work together so well that they decided to get married.
#4 Batman and Batgirl The whole Bat-family dynamic has been an interesting
one to watch for sure, but perhaps the scariest couple pairing that people were sort of into
was when Bruce Wayne got together with Barbara Gordon.
In the pages of Batman Beyond 2.0 we learned of this romantic relationship that had started
between the two.
The troubling thing was that Batgirl is both the daughter of Batmans closest ally as well
as his sidekicks girlfriend Fans loved the drama though of Barbara being pregnant with
Batmans baby while at the same time Bruce dismissing her until she sorts things out
with Dick Grayson.
#3 Thanos and Hela Recently there has been some introductions
to a terrifying new match made in hell between the titan Thanos and the Goddess of Chaos
and Death Hela.
After the mad Titans failed attempts to get with Lady Death he moved on to the next best
thing.
Their first comic book kiss was in The Unworthy Thor number 5.
Hela had just lose her throne and to prove to Thanos that she still has her evil groove,
Hela had to take down two of his smartest foes.
Thanos loves him some chaos and destruction so this act of violence was actually the perfect
way to steal his big purple heart.
#2 Doom and The White Queen Surprisingly enough that metal mask and hunter
green house coat Doom wears has not deterred him one bit from having multiple famous supervillain
girlfriends.
One of the more famous scary relationships Doom has had was with Emma Frost when she
was known as The White Queen.
The love for this relationship from fans was due to both villains being extremely charming
and evil all at the same time.
This charm factor really complimented their brief romance and with their combined strengths
they made for quite the dynamic duo.
Doom can manipulate objects and matter which worked hand in hand with Emma's telepathic
abilities.
#1 Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy Harleys relationship with the joker has been
fairly tumultuous and after submitting to a ton of abuse over the years Quinn finally
reached her breaking point.
Knowing that the longer she stayed in that relationship the closer she would be to dying,
Harley decided to leave the Joker.
After that she sought help from her fellow supervillain friend Poison Ivy.
Ivy never really cared for the Joker or any men for the record so needless to say she
was heavily inclined to console Harley.
In a shocking turn of events though Poison Ivy turned out to be supremely beneficial
for Quinn's mental health.
For the first time Harley Quinn was experiencing what it felt like to be loved and respected.
Additionally Poison Ivys superpowers meant that she would be easily protected as well
from her crazed ex-lover the Joker.
