So just now I was thinking about Villains and Heroes and how only the Joker and Mr. Freeze have a relationship.... Well Mr. Freeze kinda has a relationship, it's a popsicle, but it's a twisted relationship. Heroes always have a love interest but rarely do villains. Can anyone tell me any other relationships on the Villains side that I'm missing. I don't count Brother Blood as having a girlfriend, he just hasn't learned no means no.
Villians, by their very definition, are tough to trust. And trust is the foundation of any solid relationship.
At first, the joker had no relationship. I think it was due to the inclusion of Harley in Batman the animated series, where she was very popular. Sinestro, however, had an serious relationship with the sister of Abin Sur (friend and mentor) but then, that relationship ended when Sinestro was determined to rule the planet. Later she dies.
Black Adam and Isis... It doesn't end well for either of them. Scandal and Knockout Giganta and Ryan Choi (briefly and though he's a hero) Cheshire and Roy Harper (though like Ryan, he's a hero)
Because Villains usually kill or try to kill their significant other. We like to call it "Tough" Love.
And it was quiet a gross death too. Kinda makes me feel like the way writers treat the Hulk.Apparently readers don't like to see him happy, so his girlfriends must die, keeps him mad. I liked Isis too. That one is awesome. They even get married to a third woman. Gail Simone is so cool for writing that ^^ I love a writer who can pair two opposite characters and make it work Also, Lady Shiva/Black Canary ... wait ... no that was a fanfiction, sorry ^^
And Batman and Catwoman, Aquaman and Queen Mira, Queen Bee and Brainiac, Kyle Abbot and Whisper A'Daire, Killer Frost and Firestorm.
Also now Harley with Ivy And I don't think it's canon anywhere other than the one movie, but King Shark having once dated Constantine, also Tala having once dated Constantine Black Manta with Khaldur's mother There's also Talia with Batman Counting Manbat as a villain is kinda..... subjective depending on how you look at it, but he has a wife One Captain Boomerang had a child who took up his father's mantle (can never keep their names straight) Zod and Ursa I think Tim had a brief stint with Lynx or whatever her name was Depending on the version of his backstory, Two-Face sometimes has a girlfriend or fiance, though generally pre-supervillain Didn't Riddler have a daughter (that he killed in a rage) at some point? That means there's a mother Ra's and the women he's had children with (fun fact: Talia's mother was a mixture of Arab and Chinese, so Damian has some Chinese in him) Didn't King Shark marry that Orca character at some point in some continuity? More just a bad guy and criminal than a villain in the sense of the others here, but Tony Zuko had a daughter, at least pre-52, that we saw for a bit during a Grayson Bat arc Sportsmaster and Huntress (Paula) Clue Master and Stephanie Brown's mother Slade and his wife (and Rose's mother)
