Although my enemies are a pain in the ass, I would have liked scarecrow on the list. -Batman

Scarecrow should be in catwoman's spot, I don't consider her a villain to batman, she is more of his love interest and is petty thief, not much a threat to him.

Oh man, I have noooooooo idea who number one could ppossssibly be.

My favorite villain wasn't on here ☹️☹️☹️, RIP Scarecrow

Where the fuck is Scarecrow?

I think Joel Schumacher is Batman's greatest villain, he only did little but the damage it did was enormous.

The fact that scarecrow isn’t on this list upsets me greatly

Come on, not even Killer Croc or Scarecrow

5. Clayface 4. Bane 3. The Riddler 2. The Joker 1. Alfred "Mr Wayne get those damn bat-a-rangs off the coffee table!"

10: Hush 9: Mr. Freeze 8: Bane 7: Two Face 6: Mad Hatter 5: Poison Ivy 4: Riddler 3: Ras Al Ghul 2: Scarecrow 1: The Joker Honourable mentions to: Harley Quinn, Red Hood, Black Mask, Hugo Strange, and Deadshot I know this might sound strange, but I don't see Catwoman as a villain. I see her as more of an anti hero.

no scarecrow :(

1. Joker 2. Scarecrow 3. Riddler 4. Two-Face 5. Bane 6. Penguin 7. Mr. Freeze 8. Cat Woman 9. Ra’s Al Ghul 10. The Court of Owls

No scarecrow?

Disappointed to not see Killer Croc on the list...

I was channel surfing today and stumbled upon an episode of the 1960's Batman TV show. The villain, Colonel Gumm began his monolog but was stopped by Reprint, his henchman. Reprint said that they shouldn't give away the details of their plan. Reprint is the greatest henchman ever.

Scarecrow is my favorite Batman villain, or villain in general. Hes the true opposite of Batman: a man that stands as an icon of hope, justice and overcoming your fears. Scarecrow of course is that fear. He's a testament to mind consuming matter and uses that excellently. I dont think ive seen a bad portrayel of him, both as a character and in art. He looks terrifying and it really hits home that his character is someone born of terror

Isn't catwomen more of an anti-hero?

Here's my list. 10 Penguin-A bird of prey that knows how to make things difficult for his predators. 9 Killer Croc-Not exactly an A tier rouge but I think he was the potential to be better. 8 Poison Ivy-Hands down one of the toughest Batman villains and one of the sexiest. 7 Clayface-A villain that can turn into just about anything how can that not be great. 6 Mr.Freeze-All he did was for his wife so you can't help feeling sorry for him despite his cold hearted actions. (Pun intended of course) 5 Bane-Strong & smart so he can attack Batman physically & mentally a dangerous combo. 4 Scarecrow-Basically the Freddy Kruger of DC. 3 Two-Face-A former friend turned enemy also did you know he was inspired by Dr.Jekyll & Mr.Hyde. 2 Riddler-Smart psychotic and an ego the size of Gotham he is and always will he one of the best. 1 Joker-Big shock not just the best Batman villains but possibly the greatest villain period.

In any order: Red Hood Joker Bane Mr. Freeze Poison Ivy Ra's Al Ghul Scarecrow Two Face Harley Quinn Catwoman

Good. Apart from Killer Croc, Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, and Joel Shumaecher not making the list, good

I miss the scarecrow.

Can we get a history of Martian Manhunter please? (:

Am I the only one hear who thinks Scarecrow should be at number 2!?

Riddle: Riddle me this Batman, Who came at number 2 on your Best Villains list by Variant Comics? Batman: Uhhhhhhhhhhh Superman? Riddler: What? NO! Batman: Carnage? Riddler: That's not even a dc comics villain, No it's ME! Batman: Oh, well can I have a Retry? Riddler: Sure Batman: The Riddler Riddler: How did you KNOW!? Batman: (FACEPALM)

Favorite Batman Villains (Top to Bottom) 1. The Joker 2. Killer Croc 3. Scarecrow 4. Bane 5. Harley Quinn 6. The Penguin 7. Poison Ivy 8. Mr. Freeze 9. Two-Face 10. The Riddler

damn no scarecrow?

10. Poison Ivy-Her portrayal in the arkham games are really nice, making her an interesting villain 9. Man-Bat- he really means well, just to find a cure. I find his story interesting 8. Two-Face- represents batmans duality, especially seeing as he was friends with Bruce wayne 7. The Riddler- he challenges batmans intellect, not much of a physical fighter 6. Red Hood (when a villain... duh)- I like what he stands for, which is batmans greatest failure. Some villains can be arguably created by batman, but Jason Todd is LITERALLY created through batman. Had he not been brought in as being robin, none of this would've happened really. He is more of an anti-hero, but he's just so badass 5. Ra's Al Ghul- in a sick and twisted way, he really does mean well... He wants to purify the world of crime. He just takes it too far. No big deal 4. The Joker- honestly not number one because I find others more interesting. I know he is the quintessential villain of batman, as he has just been a pain. Paralyzed Barbara, killed Jason, and in the DCAU he kidnapped Tim and transformed him into a kid joker. Just pure evil 3. Scarecrow- he's usually overlooked to be honest. He represents batmans tactics of fear, and with the joker it can be argued he has a few screws loose, but it's implied that scarecrow isn't insane, just pure evil. He's smart, calculating, and badass 2. Bane- when he's not being portrayed as a big bumbling idiot, he poses a serious threat. He is a genius, figured out batmans identity, is a serious physical threat, and broke the bat. Love it 1. Me Freeze- I would recommend to everyone to watch the episode of the animated series Heart of Ice. It portrays freeze as a kind of wise and seasoned guy at the end of the rope and just wants to cure his wife, even if it means he'll go to extreme lengths. Even though he's on top tens, he needs to be higher on lists. Plus his boss fight in arkham city is one of the best in any game ever. Just saying. So there you have it

Hers my list! ^.^ 10: Bane 9: Mr. Freeze 8: Deathstroke 7: Black Mask 6: Penguin 5: Rhas al Ghul 4: Scarecrow 3: Riddler 2: Two-Face 1: Joker Honorable Mentions: Harley Quinn, Dead Shot, Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Killer Croc.

#1 is obviously Kite-Man

For me, on 1# Should be... the nemesis of order.. the destroyer of batman... Joel Schumaher !!!

Personally, the Scarecrow is my favorite Batman villain.

Not a definitive list but my top 5 would probably have to be: 5. Poison Ivy 4. Scarecrow 3. Harley Quinn 2. Joker 1. The Riddler Deathstroke is my favourite comic book villain but I'm pretty sure he's more Teen Titans then Batman.

Batman = THE BEST SUPERHEROES EVER !!

10. Red hood 9. Anarchy 8. Mr. freeze 7. Scarecrow 6. Bane 5. Joker 4. Ra's al ghul 3. The Pinguin 2. The riddler 1. Black mask

Ok, number 1 was a no-brainer, The Joker is the ultimate villain. But where the hell was Hush?

Great list!

You should do a Worst Batman Villains too. As Batman has some of the best rogues gallery ever, he also has some of the worst.

9:31 The Joker represents how Batman could have gone mad with just One Bad Day !

Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn definitely both deserve their place somewhere in the top ten. Harley's origin story is quite awesome in her line of comics (pre-new 52), and her character has a lot of depth. Poison Ivy's character also has a lot of depth upon reading the comics, and her concept as a guardian of plant life while still holding onto some humanity (that she often denies) makes her a very interesting character.

#1: Joker #2: Scarecrow #3: Riddler #4: Mr Freeze #5: Bane #6: Two-Face #7: Harley Quinn #8: Penguin #9: Ra’s al ghul (sorry if I spelled that wrong) #10: Red Hood

1 Joker 2 Deathstroke 3 Bane 4 Ra's al ghul 5 Catwoman 6 Riddler 7 Penguin 8 Harley Quinn 9 Killer Croc 10 Poison Ivy (Honorable mention) : Two Face

i dont really view catwoman as a villain , but not a hero either ,

I have a full love and respect to you and your videos, Arris Ouinones (AKA Variant Comics)!!!!!!!!!!

Kudos to you for a video well done! I was surprised that The Riddler was in second place and not Ras al Gul. I'm also surprised you didn't mention Riddler was Hush. Also I liked The Batman animated series version of Mr. Freeze being a common diamond thief who was trapped in an experimental cryogenic tube and gained cryogenic powers like Killer Frost and many other villains of DC comics. Plus Clancy Brown was that character's voice talent in that series.

My top ten villains of Batman 10: Scarecrow 9: Killer Croc 8: Talia Al Ghul 7: Joker 6: Hugo Strange 5: Poison Ivy 4: Harley Quinn 3: Riddler 2: Bane and the ultimate winner is............................................................................... RA"S AL GHUL!

Do the 10 best Superman villains!

1. Joker 2. Riddler 3. Two Face 4. Mr. Freeze 5. Firefly 6. Penguin 7. Scarecrow 8. Clay face 9. Poison Ivy 10. Ra’s Al Guhl

Great list

Gothams Penguin made the character imo

Batman definitely has the best rogues gallery

1. Ra's al ghul 2.Joker 3.scare crow 4.catwoman 5.Two Face Top 5 for me Y becuz they all have a mental or physical connection with Batman.

my 10 10.Riddler 9.Clayface 8.Killer Croc 7.Penguin 6.Two Face 5.Harley Quin 4.Bane 3.Poisoin Ivy 2.Joker 1.Scarecrow

Clayface from 'The Batman' is one of the best. I think The Batman deserves more acknowledgement.

I thought that Catwoman would've been an anti-hero.

My list from the comics would be something along the lines of: - The Joker - The Scarecrow - Mr. Freeze - Two Face - Hush - The Riddler - The Penguin - The Court of Owls - The Mad Hatter - Ra's Al Ghul The order may very and if I was counting the animated series, my list would be different. However, the first three never change for me. I don't count Catwoman as a villain, more as an antihero.

Arris! Any reading recommendation for each Batman Villain on your countdown? Doesn't have to be their origins.

How is mr freeze higher than two face ,cat woman and penguin

WHERE THE HELL AM I!!!! I'M NOT EVEN A HONOURABLE MENTION!!!! SERIOUSLY!!! You just wait till I tell mr J! I think I'll get Bud and Lou to take a little visit to wherever you live! cause mr J hasnt fed them in a while!

Hey Arris. Here's my 10 favourite Batman villains. 10. Scarecrow 9. Poison Ivy 8. Two-Face 7. Riddler 6. Penguin 5. Catwoman 4. Man-Bat 3. Bane 2. Ra's al Ghul 1. Joker

Firefly,scarecrow,killer croc,mad hatter, lady Shiva, calendar man, man bat, Clay face, deathstroke, bane

Why couldn't it be a top twenty there is just to many to count..... Why?!?!?!?

Is Victor Fries really pronounced "fries" like French fries? Mom pretty sure it's pronounced "freeze" that is what makes it so cool. His last name is pronounced like his villain name.

the true top of batman best villains: 1Hush 2The Joker 3Talia Al Ghul/Ra's al Ghul/The Heretic 4Lincoln March 5Deacon Blackfire 6The Reaper 7Scarecrow 8Kg beast (The real Bane) 9Henri Ducard 10Renegade Indian

So a top 25 of this? There is so many more. Glad the court made the list though.

Hey arris how about v for vendetta vs rorshach unless thus weeks video is already planned

I know it's pronounced Raysh Al Ghul, but I'm Arabian and in order to say Head of the Demon, it needs to be pronounced as it is written, Ra's Al Ghul, but I still prefer Raysh

10: Oswold Cobblepot/The Penguin 9: Hugo Strange 8: Killer Croc 7: Edward Nigma/The Riddler 6: Selina Kyle/Catwoman 5: Harvey Dent/Two - Face 4: Ra’s Al Ghul 3: Bane 2: The Joker 1: Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow

My best Batman villains list. 10. Poison Ivy 9. Court of Owls 8. Clayface 7. Two Face 6. Bane 5. Mr. Freeze 4. Scarecrow 3. Riddler 2. Ras Al Ghul 1. Joker

Clayface higher than Two Face?? Two Face is wayyyyyyyyy more important to Batman's history

So glad you have the riddler so high. He might be my favorite over the joker even

And while Damian was dead Clayface turned into him while he was captured telling Batman Bruce Wayne doesn't even care about his son which made Batman very VERY mad.

thank you for putting the Riddler as #2 he is my third favorite DC comics character behind Batman and Tim Drake

I'd have replaced #10 with Deathstroke or Poison Ivy

My top ten list of Batman villains would include these rogues. 10. Lord Death Man ( he cannot die and may actually have Lazerus blood) 9. Cheshire ( only appeared in one comic and is mainly a Titan's villain but I like her) 8. Poison Ivy ( a fem fatale with a green thumb) 7. Scarecrow ( the true antithesis to the Batman) 6. Hugo Strange ( a man truly obsessed with Batman) 5. Bane ( he is truly a monster and has a great origin) 4. Two Face ( the good, the bad, and the ugly) 3. The Court of Owls ( it was like Gotham city itself was alive man!) 2. Ra's Al Ghul ( really brings out the James Bond in Batman) 1. Joker ( Ha!) Honourable mentions, the Reaper, Hurt, Hush, Kobra, the Crime Doctor and Catman. Yes Catman!

Arris always has t-shirts that I want!

I'm so glad you made riddler number 2 because of course nobody in their right mind would ever leave joker out of number one but he's my personal favorite

Wow, bane is the "living" interpretation of the phrase "sins of the father" speaking of which, why has there never been a bane comic called that?

I've got a few of things: 1) REALLY clay-face over ctawoman!!! 2) NO HARLEY QUINN 3) NO SCARECROW!!!!!!!!!!

The definitive list: 1.- The Joker 2.- Catwoman 3.- Ridler 4.- Bane 5.- Scarecrow 6.- Mr Freeze 7.- Two Face 8.- The Penguin 9.- Poison Ivy 10.- Ras' al Gul 11.- Killer Croc 12.- Man-Bat

When I was a kid I played the Lego Batman game and ever since then I've liked the riddler but I never knew about his powers or his personality until recently. I only liked him because he was in the game I played as a kid. After finding out his personality I liked him even more and hope that he is portrayed well in the new Batman movie

Secret number 11 KITE MAN

cmon man wheres deathstroke?

Mine our 10: Penguin 9: Man-Bat 8: Red Hood 7: Riddler 6: Two Face 5: Killer Croc (I threw a rock at him!) 4 Bane 3: Mister freeze 2: Joker 1: Scarecrow

I kinda wanted killer croc but this list is great

10. Hush 9. Harley Quinn 8. Poison Ivy 7. Riddler 6. Scarecrow 5. Bane 4. Penguin 3. Two Face 2. Ra's al Ghul 1. Catman (it's a joke, obviously The Joker)

Here is my list of the top 10 Batman villains ever: 10. Ra's Al Ghul 9. Penguin (Because of Gotham) 8. Scarecrow 7. Poison Ivy 6. Mad Hatter 5. Mr Freeze 4. Two-Face 3. Deathstroke 2. Joker 1. The Riddler If your favourite villain is not here then sorry.

as soon as u mentioned Bane I just knew that you'd bring up his portrayal in Batman and Robin lol I just knew it!

YES! Love for The Riddler! Riddles is one of my favorite hobbies. My friends and coworkers love the riddles I make and sometimes compete to see who solves them first. When I am dry I do a twist in the wording of one of my favorite riddles from my youth. Oh, and Bane was not just killed in the 90s in a movie. He was killed as well as Batman's fighting skills were killed with Bane's recent movie incarnation. That Bane would have been a virtually perfect bad guy if they made him not Bane but an original character and did not twist Talia into a child of the pit that was actually part of Bane's backstory. Remember the writers' strike that spawned that wave of reality shows? I think that gave leverage to the powers that be to do lazy writing that they can just call in, turning writing into mere mass production that pleases the corporations and producers that hire them. Crank it out or make them fire you and turn it into a cash-grab... reality show standards. No wonder people are waiting for video/cable release and paying for Netflix and becoming fans of fan-created content.

I haven't seen a Batman villain's list that the Joker was not #1.

Seriously? Catwoman (my favourite female character, but not a villain) and Clayface? Scarecrow is a top 5 Batman villain surely. Not only is he one of the best villains for Batman in the comics, his portrayals in other media are excellent, e.g. Cillian Murphy in Batman begins. If you ever did an updated list, he should definitely be on it especially following Batman Arkham Knight. Not joking, John Noble's portrayal of scarecrow is one my favourite voice portrayals ever. Up there with Mark Hamill's Joker for me. P.S. If you class him as a Batman villain, Deathstroke should definitely be here as he is one of DCs best characters in my opinion. But if you don't class him specifically as a Batman villain, fair enough.

In my book it would go something like this: 1. Joker (most iconic) 2. Bane (he's smart) 3. Riddler maybe (Riddles are cool) 4. Court of Owls (epic. Just epic.) 5. Cluemaster (because of his run in Batman Eternal) 6. Dr. Strange (its a pun :( get it? Dr. Hugo Strange) 7. Clayface (mostly because of his character arc in Detective Comics Rebirth) 8. Catwoman (just sexy UwU) 9. Mr. Freeze (because his character arc in New 52 when he pushed his mom into ice and when Batman revealed the woman in the glass tube is not really Nora, that character arc was noice) 10. Scarecrow (he's just cool)

My top 10 Deathstroke(more of a Titans villains so not included) 10.The Mad Hatter 9.Killer Croc 8.Riddler 7.The Penguin 6.Anarky 5.Scarecrow 4.The Court of Owls 3. Bane 2.The Joker 1.Two Face Honorable mention: Black Mask, Harley Quinn,

we all knew it was the joker right?

No poison ivy she is my favorite super villainesses in all of comics

Mine is (not including Catwoman) 10.The Black Glove 9.James Gordan JR 8.Bane 7.Clayface 6.Court of owls 5.Man Bat 4.Ras Al Ghuol 3.The riddler (if he’s written correctly) 2.Two Face 1.The Joker

Riddler is my favorite Batman in Villain and second favorite DC comics character.

Penguin is useless if you think about it so Scarecrow should be on the list and you also forgot Kiteman. the superior Batman villain

No Scarecrow?????? He Easily has one of the greatest background stories, Riddler's sucks in comparison

My top 10: 10.) Dr. Simon Hurt 09.) Hush 08.) Hugo Strange 07.) The Court of Owls 06.) The Riddler 05.) Scarecrow 04.) Bane 03.) Ra's al Ghul 02.) Two-Face 01.) The Joker

No Scarecrow? Poison Ivy? Victor Zsasz? Harley Quinn? Mad Hatter? I like your list, but I would take half of those out, & add these.
