This seemed like a very safe list. But I guess “Top 10 Monsters” and “Top 10 Scariest Monsters” are very different lists. Also, how do we count aliens as monsters and have no mention of symbiotes? I would probably go with this (in no particular order): Bloodscream Blackheart Carnage The Brood The Trench Mangog Doomsday The Violator The Darkness Ragnars

Now that Marvel has introduced Werewolf By Night and Man-Thing, they really should do a Monsterverse style ensemble movie. Marvel not only has all the classic monsters in the Marvel Universe like Dracula, the Mummy, and even a Zombie who happens to be a hero, but they also have a ton of other style monsters they could pull from as well.

A 100yr old poem isn't exactly known for historical accuracy, just look at The Animals' song "House of the Rising Sun" which has been (questionably dated back to the 1600s (AKA:17th cent). The earliest RECORDED version of it is from the early 1900s and it was quite obviously around prior to that recording, looooong before what we know/hear today. Just because you hear/read an old poem/book doesn't make it historically accurate. "Ring Around the Rosie" is a classic example of questionable authenticity.

Common misconception: Man-Thing WAS a ripoff of Swamp Thing, he just got published first. Marvel got wind of a new title from DC about a swamp creature and cranked out a version of their own. That’s why the art for the first issue is so rough and Swamp Thing is so polished.

Unfortunately, he's one of those characters that are only known for doing that one thing. In the case of Doomsday, he's famous for killing Superman and technically didn't succeed in that. Ever since then he's become something of a jobber doomed to getting his buttkicked by somebody else.

Even though his image as a monster has been softened somewhat due to the popularity of the MCU and its marketable baby version of him, Groot will always be a favourite comic book monster of mine. Weather it’s the classic alien invader of his 1960s comic debut, or his more modern gentle giant version in the guardians of the Galaxy comics and other media.
