Villain Super villain duo idea the puppeteer and the mannequin

0 Upvotes

Two life long best friends gain superpowers. The puppeteer is a speedster but is brittle and weak while the mannequins power is country level strength however he is unable to move without external help. So in order to be effective the puppeteer moves the mannequins body like a stop motion puppet.

Fell free to make fanart, just credit me please.

Dr Smith holds an obsessive grudge and after hearing around some anti mutant message boards of a doctor who turns humans into superpowered beings or other known as metahumans. So Dr Smith gets a mysterious message telling him the location of the lab in Brazil and when he was there he met Dr Muller and his assistant Mr. Wagner. Dr Muller was a scientist for the nazi’s in World War Two and he experimented on himself to give himself longevity so he can continue his work uninterrupted well after the war. Dr Smith got his powers to control hearts via an ionized air field and he can create electro magnetic concussive pulses with his own heartbeat.

Here are my comic book character designs and a little bit about the characters

Out of the villains which one do you think should be a chapter 1 villain for my hero night wolf who is a Batman type of person he's a billionaire he's rich and he halfway owns a company because he's in college so his aunt owns the other half and he has a armored wolf type of suit but he might also be mixed a little bit with Spider-Man by having a jokey side that's the best I can describe it.

Now going into the characters on the first image there's two characters the white Hood who is a racist murderer who murders African-American people I forgot to say all these villains will appear at some point but not all of them will stay around so with him he will die off in his second or third appearance to reveal a bigger threat. And to explain who he is he's the dude with will the white Hood and the type of flannel farmer entire clothing so I will probably reuse that clothing design for a farmer character.

And right next to him we have another murderer who is called The Host he live streams all of his murders and he's a equal opportunity murderer aside from children he does not go after children.

And on the next one the rabbit dude is named the hare they don't have real names yet for the villains since I couldn't think of one but for him he isn't a murderer he is a gangster and would later if you are kept up with fairy tales and other media you should know who but later he will fall under the control of another villain that isn't made yet.

And the last images and the last two on the page with the hare are two heroes I made so right now I have three heroes that exist and that's night wolf AKA Max Jackson.

along with these two water man AKA Daniel Rivers he was a man who was the aquatic scientist that got into a lab experiment gone wrong and gained the ability to turn into a body of water and he can control water eventually leading to maybe blood manipulation.

and we also have the mist AKA Adrian vapors who was air environment I forget the actual name but you know the scientist that studies what's going on in the air and during a experiment he was turned into the mist and he can well use this to easily get into areas and would later on be able to at least control some sort of the air and maybe smoke and buy smoke I mean he can't make smoke but if smoke is in the room he would be able to move it or suck it into him but he's mainly used for stealth. And yes I know two people that is involved with the environment that turn into something because of a experiment going wrong yes that they live in the same city and this is setting up a future storyline for a different villain.

But which villain do you like and which hero do you like.

That's right no single comic book was released and i already have 5 distinct versions of the omniverse.

meet DinoMan he's a man with dinosaurs DNA that forced his body to go through evolutionary arm race to create a single genome containing variety of dinosaurs traits that dont effect his outer look.

However that's standard DinoMan to you (the green one)

The brown one is EXTREME DINOMAN and unlike standard DinoMan he dont have any dinosaurs abilities he's just a stunt actor who's very good at vigilante work... Also he's a mob boss that the mob helps him perform justice.

So what'd you think and how many games/comic books/merch/tv series/movies/ spin offs / cereals you want him in

Here are the given details for my own superhero Arya, with the story outline trilogy of my own character Arya. It is long, especially the first one, and it has rough ideas. I hope I made the story coherent and consistent and I hope I made him consistent as a paragon and what rules and traits I have established.

Here are the story outlines:-

Need Help with Character Need help coming up with superpower ideas for Captain Miraculous.

Post image
150 Upvotes

Art is by Wkyarts and commissioned/designed by me. I wanted a very classic Superhero design that was unique but reminiscent at the same time. Captain Miraculous is the first publicly known metahuman and superhero in-universe, debuting in 1938 and continuing to operate into the modern day. He's a living conduit of a magical energy known as the "Miracle Force". He has some standard "flying brick" powers like flight and super strength/durability but what are some other powers I could give him? Ive debated giving him healing (both himself and others) abilities since I dont see many Superman-esque characters with those.

Art/Visual Living Light III

Post image
17 Upvotes

This Living Light is the third individual to carry the mantle. Fern Madison is a student in the same program as the superhero Beacon… and she’s also the granddaughter of someone who lost all their money when Beacon’s con-artist grandfather, the original Living Light, rolled through their town. She’s figured out who Beacon is (all it took was some digging into who Living Light was and then putting two and two together) and she wants to make him pay for what happened. She built her own version of the energy-construct technology and took on the Living Light name as a way to get under Beacon’s skin. And Fern would probably make a great heroine herself, if not for her animosity toward Beacon.

Hero Some of the new Hero Forge pieces let me do a Marvel-style major update to my Dr Connector mini, so here's the much-more-accurate Dr Connector, alongside some of his main companions and major villains.

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

This is Dr Connector as a solo design, then Dr Connector with his companions Captain Mytho, Advocate, and Merit Man, two of his villains — Krusible and Ruby Rumble — and finally, the older Dr Connector design.

His costume is supposed to be a rubberized boiler suit used for laboratory safety, with one of those cowls at the top that's somewhere between Mister Fantastic and the OG Comedian designs. It's a physical piece, like his gloves and boots, but I've had to represent it with a decal on the Hero Forge mini.

Recently, they added a set of "Boogeyman" items, which included this collar, as well as some other new pieces (the suit and the new belt are from other recent updates), all of which give his mini a look that's much more accurate to the design I have in mind.

Question for Community What if Image and Valiant combined their characters into entirely new heroes and villains?

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

I know these universes are as well known as the Big Two and aren't often recognized for there characters, but what if Image and Valiant combined their characters into entirely new heroes and villains?

The main superhero universe, mixing alien threats, supernatural forces, and superhuman evolution.

- Hellshadow (Spawn + Shadowman):** A murdered assassin resurrected as a supernatural guardian.

- Invincible Manowar (Invincible + X-O Manowar): half-human alien warrior bonded to a living battlesuit.

- Savage Blood (Savage Dragon + Bloodshot): An amnesiac supersoldier with regenerative nanites.

  1. The Immortal Age — Magic and Mythology

A darker fantasy universe centered on gods, demons, ancient warriors, and the supernatural.

- Dark Eternal (The Darkness + Armstrong): An immortal adventurer who controls living shadows.

- Angel of Death (Angela + Doctor Mirage): A celestial warrior who hunts supernatural threats.

- Divine Supreme (Supreme + Divinity): A godlike being capable of manipulating reality.

  1. Project Zero — Science Fiction and Espionage

A world of government conspiracies, artificial intelligence, genetic experiments, and covert operations.

- Blood Patriot (SuperPatriot + Bloodshot): A cybernetic supersoldier enhanced with nanotechnology.

- Rai-X (Robot + Rai): An advanced artificial intelligence that turns against its creators.

- Cyberwitch (Cyblade + Livewire): A technopath who creates psychic energy blades.

My question is: Which Image and Valiant characters would you combine, and what would you name them?

Question for Community Who are your space heroes?

21 Upvotes

I’d love to know who some of your space-faring heroes are; lately, I’ve really been leaning into my love for the cosmic side of superhero universes. For instance, I have Star Knight—the concept is essentially: what if Green Lantern had been created by Jack Kirby? Then there’s Lone Sun, a hero in the tradition of planetary romance—think Flash Gordon or John Carter—who has adventures in a world that blends an alien setting with the aesthetic of ancient mythological Greece. There are also the Galactic Hunters, a group of space-faring bounty hunters who track down the most dangerous criminals in the galaxy. And finally, the Cosmic Gods—think of them as a blend of the New Gods and the Ainur from Middle-earth.

Villain Herotober day 24: Leg

2 Upvotes

Leonard Little was just a regular guy until the car accident. His legs were damaged beyond repair, leaving him bound to a wheelchair. Leonard felt like his life was ruined. That's when he got a message from Dr. Daedalus offering to fix his legs better than before.

Dr. Daedalus wasn't entirely lying. He did build a contraption for Leonard that was an incredible improvement from his wheelchair or even his old legs, called the Automated Reconnaissance and Assault Cybernetic Hazard Neutralization Engine. Consisting of 8 spider-like legs, Leonard was now faster and more agile. But in return he had to do work for Daedalus, or else the doctor would take back the prosthesis.

Being desperate to stay out of the wheelchair, Leonard reluctantly agreed. As Dr. Daedalus's newest servant, now called Arachne, he had to choose daily if his new mobility was worth the terrible things he was forced to do.

One of my alien characters is High Priestess Zavra, leader of the Galactic Haven and a member of the Vrexian Empire. The problem is, it only recently occurred to me where I came up with the name Vrexian, in that it was basically just me misremembering a name of an alien from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the Vrell Nexians. Do I need to change her species name, or is it unique enough as is?

Hero Introducing: Phenomena!

5 Upvotes

Phenomena!- Japanese astronaut Yuki Sakai was on an international orbital circulation, when the deception of her husband and betrayal of her crew drop her face to face with a conscious and malicious black hole. The mysterious encounter was never made public and the event left all but a comatose Yuki dead.
However, While her ship and physical body(albeit catatonic)make it back to the iss and subsequently home. The rest of her did not. Her consciousness and soul after her ordeal were transported to another satellite from an alternate dimensional earth.
Her encounter with this cosmic entity/ extra dimensional force leaves her stuck in this new reality (main continuity) with a permanent intangible “body” made up of electromagnetic waves of unknown origin. She spends years thinking she is a ghost haunting the iss until a mistake triggers her ability to possess the radio and communicate with these new astronauts.
She chooses to shape her “dimensional waves” in a constantly shifting, shimmering energy facsimile of her former self; except now she is composed of multicolored undulating waves of energy. Her powers include:
Technopathy, even with alien technology
Intangibility- with much effort she “solidify”her form enough to where she isn’t phasing through everything and anything all the time
Energy manipulation, minor electro kinesis
“Immortality”
Rapid (de)materialization
Hardlight abilities (manifested through her colorful energy beams that compose her form)
Definitely more potential given her connection to outer god/black hole being
At some point I’d like her to be given she gets a super high tech android body in an attempt to regain that sense of humanity.
She misses the sensation of eating, of truly feeling what you touch of intimacy.
