DC Comics' all-time greatest villain - Poll Results!

Some kind of French democracy painting to do with universal male suffrage
The French elections to find their exciting new president may be under way but how can even they compare in importance to the Steve Does Comics poll to find the greatest DC super-villain of them all?

They can't.

And that's why I'm talking about this and not that.

But what a poll it's been, with a walloping thirty five votes - which may well be the highest turnout a poll on this site's ever managed.

Joint eighth were Crazy Quilt and Starro, with one vote each.

Joint sixth, with two votes apiece, were the Anti-Monitor and Dex-Starr.

Fifth, with three votes, was Lex Luthor. I suspect he'll be pulling his hair out at such a disappointing finish.

Fourth, with four votes, were DC Comics Themselves.

Third was Dan Jurgens, with six votes.

It's no laughing matter for the Joker as he finds himself relegated to second place, with seven votes.

Which means the winner - and possibly a surprise to many - was Jack Kirby's very own Darkseid, with nine votes.

So, congratulations to Darkseid, commiserations to the plucky losers and, as always, thanks to all who voted.

Darkseid, suprrising but cool. I'm sooo glad Lex Luthor didn't win. I'm sick of that guy.

Darkseid won because "when you cry out in your sleep it is Darkseid that you see." Can't say fairer than that...
