You should do the top 10 best "obscure" Legion villains: 10: Dr. Mantis Morlo 9: The Sklarian Raiders 8: Quicksand and Holdur 7: Magpie 6: Grimbor, the Chainsman 5: The League of Super-Assassins 4. Doctor Regulus 3. The Dominators 2. Roxxas 1. The Infinate Man
I believe Mordru, Darkseid, & the Time Trapper are the LSH's greatest threat. Darkseid even went face to face the JLA. And in term the chaos & the damages, all of them are devastating. Even Darkseid reshaped planet Daxam based on his own image - literally.
Mordru - yes. Darkseid - no. Darkseid has only appeared 3 times to face the LSH: 1. The Great Darkness Saga. 2. The Curse. 3. When he faced the Legion as his old, decrepit self and his younger self transported through time. At least this particular story arc gave us the enduring line, "Darkseid is." In that last instance, I loved Superboy/Conner Kent's reply to Darkseid's favorite words as he and other Legionnaires shoved the young Darkseid back through time via boom tube... Darkseid: "Darkseid is..." Superboy: "...toast." LOL!
I checked on the Internet and per the DC Database the Sun Eater first appeared in 1963, while the Doomsday Machine didn't appear until 1967. The Sun Eater was a weapon was created by The Controllers, an offshoot of The Guardians of the Universe. The Controllers separated from the Guardians due to a disagreement over the best way to handle evil. The Guardians believed that evil should be contained, while the Controllers believed that evil should be destroyed. To that end, The Controllers developed extremely powerful weapons like The Sun Eater.
Tharok originally was literally half cyborg, one side of his body was completely cybernetic while the other was completely human. He was a thief of low intelligence who had the right half of his body disintegrated during a robbery. To save his life they quickly constructed a cyborg half, but an error when connecting the two halves gave him intelligence equal to Brainiac 5 (who has 12th level intelligence).
Tharok was called a half-cyborg because the character was created way back in the 1960s when we didn't really have a firm grasp on what a cyborg really was. Look how they referred to Steve Austin and Jamie Summers in the 70s... as "bionic" instead of as cyborgs.
@@jimgilbert9984 Actually, Tharok was called "half robot" back then. They didn't say cyborg that much. The term may have existed, but it wasn't popularized.
@@Solitaire001 Cyborg= cybernetic and organic. So Tharok hasn't "half cyborg" ever. The moment his cybernetic half was attached, he became "all cyborg".
Nope. He'd mess that up like he did this list. But here's one for you from me: 1. This one is a 3-way tie because there would be no Legion without the founders - Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, and Lightning Lad. 2. Superboy, the inspiration for the LSH. 3. Mon-El, one of the most powerful members. (The rest are in no particular order.) 4. Wildfire. Not only does he have the powers of an Energy Release Generator (a reference to his original name, ERG-1), but he can mimic the powers of many of his teammates. 5. Karate Kid. No "powers," just the absolute mastery of every martial art in the galaxy, so much so he can sense the weakness in any foe and material (in fact, this let's him shatter inertron, the toughest alloy in the universe, with a single blow while it would take Superboy or Mon-El hours of constant pounding to accomplish the same thing) and he became the LSH's unarmed combat trainer. 6. Lightning Lass/Light Lass. First she had lightning powers like her twin, had her powers changed to make things lightweight (a type of gravity manipulation), then her lightning powers were restored due to electrical torture by her brother Mekt. 7. Kono. Joined the adult Legion when Reep and Rokk reformed it and Jo rejoined. A practical joker with the power to manipulate mass, so she could make herself intangible, do the same to others, and make others heavier, too, all by moving the mass of objects around (it was even hinted by Bion that she might be able to manipulate time, as well). 8. Quislet. An other dimensional energy lifeform that could only exist in our dimension by occupying a tiny ship. He has the power to temporarily occupy matter, animating it. Unfortunately, when he leaves that matter when he's finished with it and returns to his ship, the matter disintegrates. 9. Chameleon Boy. He can shapechange into ANYTHING. While he can alter his shape to look like Superboy, he would not have the Boy of Steel's powers. However, he can mimic the powers of alien creatures the have the structures that give them those powers, as he did in the Space-Gulag to become a giant centipede-like creature to haul or the prisoners had dug up. 10. Matter-Eater Lad. I know it seems strange to include him in this list, but the writers in the 90s did great with the character, making him intelligent and hilarious instead of just a "spear holder." Plus, while many consider his power to be lame, it's far more useful than it first appears. To begin with, he can eat his way out of any prison or bindings. Considering he can eat anything, that means his digestive system is invulnerable, as he once proved by intercepting a deadly beam of energy meant to kill a comrade with his open mouth and suffered no ill effects. And his spit is the strongest acid in the galaxy; it could dissolve enemy weapons and armor. Plus, stomach acid is far more powerful than mere spit, so should he purposely puke on something...
Sorry, but no. Cosmic King's power is transmutation, like Element Lad, though he's not a Trommite. They only named him that so that they would have someone with a similar name to Cosmic Boy. Just as the LSH had their founders in Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, and Cosmic Boy, the LSV needed similarly named villains as its founders. Thus Lightning Lord, Sarurn Queen, and Cosmic King. In fact, in the two part story "Whatever Happened to the Man of Steel," the LSV founders travel back in time to participate in Superman's final battle. When Lana Lang gives herself Kryptonian-like powers to help Superman by bathing in a radioactive, transformative "magic" pool, Cosmic King takes away those powers by transmuting the radioactive elements she'd absorbed into ordinary body salts (at which point, Lightning Lord kills her).
@@GHOST-zy3ji The LSV returned with new members to get revenge. Toward the end of the battle, Saturn Queen tried to take over Earth Man's mind, to turn him against the LSH. She was having trouble doing that because he was being backed up by some of the LSH. They were willingly lending him their power and standing with him. They even called him their friend! Remember, he hated the other members and was forced to join their ranks, and the feeling was mutual. Only Shadow Lass liked him; she even dumped Mon-El for EM. Anyway, Saturn Queen was telepathically pounding away at him when an outsider joined her, a "master of chaos" who was uber-powerful and wanted to end the sway of the Guardians and their order in the universe, even though there was only one "Guardian" left, the Daxamite Sodam Yat. Yat wanted to restore the GL Corps and had created a creature called Diogene to start passing out GL rings, and the first ended up with Mon-El. Since the LSH brought Yat out of isolation to begin with, and the first new GL in years was a Legionnaire, the new guy wanted to destroy the LSH. EM, with the backing of some of the LSH, started stealing the powers of Saturn Queen and the new villain. He was having trouble until Mon-El showed up with Diogene. With their added power, EM was able to take the power of Saturn Queen and the other and blast it back in their faces, with all of the power of the LSH added in, declaring that they were Legion (finally and proudly accepting himself firmly in their ranks). That put an end to the battle. However, the strain of handling that much raw power proved too much for him, and Earth Man died. He died with the LSH standing with him, and he with them.
I would've put Grimbor the Chainsman somewhere in there. I have the set of comics where he wrapped the earth in energy chains and had devised traps specifically geared for each member of the Legion that came to stop him. The only reason he was defeated was because of an amnesiac Superboy (who thought he was Ultra Boy and was disguised as another hero named Reflecto) showed up and foiled his plans... Grimbor's trap for Reflecto hinged on him actually being Ultra Boy
Another messed up lineup. This is worse than your Justice League Top 10 Villains. Sigh. So let's look at this mess. Mordru should be #2. He's plagued the Legion over and over again in many possible incarnations of the LSH. Darkseid should get only an honorable mention. Granted, he created Validus from one of Garth's and Imra's sons and nearly took control of the galaxy in two of the LSH's incarnations, but that's it. The Dominators should take Darkseid's place in this list. They crop up again and again, are more ruthless than Darkseid himself, have nearly infinite resources, and once dominated the Earth (pun intended) while holding off the forces of the United Planets. Even Universo and the Dark Circle (who deserve an honorable mention over Earth Man) were in on the take over and subjugation of Earth (even though Universo was really out for himself and even helped the time-lost younger Legion to overthrow the Dominators). Another honorable mention should go to the Khunds. Even though they were obviously a copy of the Klingons, DC managed to make them a race unto themselves, and they occasionally proved an annoyance to the LSH, but they were hardly more than that, really. That's why they do deserve an honorable mention, but nothing more.
He probably excluded Glorith because she took on the mantle of the Time Trapper for a while before he managed to return. Before that she was a minor villain whose only claim to fame was temporarily regressing some members of the Legion to toddlers. And in my comment to his list, I give the Dark Circle an honorable mention.
You should do the top 10 best "obscure" Legion villains:
10: Dr. Mantis Morlo
9: The Sklarian Raiders
8: Quicksand and Holdur
7: Magpie
6: Grimbor, the Chainsman
5: The League of Super-Assassins
4. Doctor Regulus
3. The Dominators
2. Roxxas
1. The Infinate Man
Good list. A few more to add to the list, in no particular order: The Khund, The Dark Circle, Starfinger, Pulsar Stargrave, and Glorith.
I believe Mordru, Darkseid, & the Time Trapper are the LSH's greatest threat.
Darkseid even went face to face the JLA.
And in term the chaos & the damages, all of them are devastating.
Even Darkseid reshaped planet Daxam based on his own image - literally.
Darkseid in The Great Darkness Saga...
My personal favorite is STAR FINGER !!
Yare yare daze
Mordru and Dardseid should be higher on the list, like two and three at least.
Mordru - yes.
Darkseid - no.

1. The Great Darkness Saga.
2. The Curse.
3. When he faced the Legion as his old, decrepit self and his younger self transported through time. At least this particular story arc gave us the enduring line, "Darkseid is."

I wondered if the sun-eater was a rip off of the Star Trek "Planet killer". Turns out it was first, by a few months.

Validus deserves to be on the list apart from the Fatal Five! He has a brilliant design and is intimidating as hell!
Your vids are awesome
I would say 1 = Darkseid, 2 the five, 3 Time Trapper, I base this on the power of villain's not history of encounters.
Great video. But, how can someone be "half cyborg"?
