Well, couple of other things I really hope to be able to do, and its a long time until my next pick, but that's why I'm going to do this now and cross my fingers on the rest.
Pinhead
Time to add some evil to my evil. Cruel, sadistic, pain loving, skin flaying demonic evil. Any being known variously as The Black Pope of Hell, The Angel of Suffering, and The Dark Prince of Pain can have a place in my evilness any day. If it comes down to a mere powers list he's formidable as hell (get it! ha!) -- nearly invulnerable, telepathic, telekinetic, can create illusions, teleport, animate objects, and does great work summoning and controling demonic chains to tear people apart into juicy little chunks (although being sadism personified, he'd much rather make it last). But most of all he is just evil, and knows how to play by the rules...MY rules. MUHAHAHAHAHA!

Well, I can't think of any better way to follow up Clive Barker's S&M dream baddie than with a villainess whose many incarnations and costume changes have almost always included skin-tight fetish gear and a whip. Besides, while I'm already hanging out in Gotham, it just makes sense to recruit everyone I want in one shot. In a move that should surprise absolutely no one, my next pick:
Catwoman - DC Comics (1940-Present) -- From her early years as an uncostumed jewel theif and general femme fatale through the cheesy 60s Julie Newmar goodness and the Burton goth treatment until now, Catwoman has always been my favorite. Chock full of feminine wiles, and not at all afraid to use them, she has managed to survive a lot with little more than heightened agility and martial arts skills to help her. She may not end up being the most powerful or strong on my island, but Catwoman definitely has her strengths and helpful qualities. And, if nothing else... could be that I would just need a buddy. Especially if I happen to bring along Frank Miller's reimagining of Catwoman from Batman: Year One.
More Catwoman:
Also, in case it isn't already obvious, this pick DOES NOT include any part of that Halle Berry silliness.

awww...despite my suspecting you might be interested, I had just figured out a use for her and thought she might last a good long while because she is so impotent.
Great first round everybody; some of the most chilling names every to grace the annals of villainy.
I've added hyperlinks to each selection on the roster list.
For my second round pick, I hit the eh, books 'cuz I don't want my team to get outdone by all these omnipotent types. So commissioned my scouts to head to the combine and find us a franchise comic baddie.
MBF's second round selection is...
Darkseid - DC
Scouting Report
Mad crazy strength
Conquerer
Powerful Omega Beam which can teleport and disintegrate
Stupid crazy mind power - which coupled with Lecter is gonna be hard to handle.
And he's just mean and evil....
Draft day highlight
"Still alive. You impress me, Kryptonian. More... your valor has touched my heart. Oh yes, there is still some small part of me that knows mercy. I will end your pain with something special I've been saving for just this occasion (takes out a Kryptonite knife). I'm going to carve out your heart and put it on a pike in my throne room."
He and Lecter will make a nasty backfield....

ARG!
I can't believe that I didn't even read the rules for this draft...
I assumed "Supervillain" stood for Comic Book anti-BatMan/Superman villain. Not movie bad guys.
I could have loved (And of course laughed) when my generic team of movie slashers get whacked by a team of 'Comic' supervillains.
Sign me up next year.

Number Two
Ok, I was all ready to pick my Ultimate Leader yesterday, but after sitting around and watching the Raiders blow yet another draft, i felt some empathy with a character who also felt they were robbed of what was rightlfully theirs, so here is my evil pick...
Superboy Prime
There is no other way around it, he is a bad man. He has beaten the Martian Manhunter within an inch of his life, he has snuffed out the "fake" superboy Conner Kent, killed a Teen Titan and toar an arm off another, he once flew thru a 300 mile barrier created by the green lantern corps and for their effort, he slaughtered 32 of them. Yes, i said 32 (impending death pictured). He possess more powers than you can shake a stick at, and if you tried to do any stick shaking, he would kill you.
Short listing of powers:
- Hearing – Prime can hear anything, anywhere
- Heat Vision-can generate an intense beam of heat hotter than the sun, has penatrated the chest of superman
- Invulnerability – He can fly into a sun unharmed
- Super Breath – He can create hurricane, freeze foes or blow out stars.
- Super Hypnotism - He has ability to hynotize opponents
- Super Strength – He can move planets
- Super Speed – He can travel faster than the speed of light or fly
faster to cross the timebarrier to travel back in time.
- x-ray vision-can see through things except for lead
- Super Ventriloquism - Prime has ventriloquism powers
strong enough to speak to other contents.
- Vision powers – Prime has x-ray, microscope vision and telescope
vision that was strong enough to see across universes.
I think that covers it.
Good luck to all who oppose Team EndGame!!!!!!!
ps - you'll notice the "S" carved into his chest, he did that himself.

I need a field general. Someone cunning enough to lead my dark minions against the forces of good, but brawny enough to go toe-to-toe with the heroes if need be.
If Cthulhu is my Death Star, this is my Vader
Diablo, Lord of Terror
The strongest of the three Prime Evils in the world of Sanctuary (If you're wondering how he's getting to Earth, he can be summoned with a black magic ceremony centered around fire ... and I just happen to be headquartered in a volcano) the quintessential demon isn't just chaos incarnate, he's crafty.
While still trapped in a stone burried in the earth, our fiery friend corrupted a clergy man, drove a king to maddness, possessed a prince, influenced a nation into declaring war on their much more powerful neighbor thus leading to a suicide mission for the warriors of the realm and slaughtered the majority of the town of Tristram which had the misfortune of being built above the stone's resting place.
And here's the kicker, this was all done to lure heroes after him, so Diablo could possess whichever hero was strong enough to defeat him, freeing our favorite demon to search for and set loose his sinister brothers.
So you see, even when Diablo "loses", he wins.
And unlike some other all-brain masterminds, if our dear Diablo's plot unravels, he can always resort to smashing.
Now that's a villain we can believe in.

Loki
Known as The Trickster God, God of Mischief, God of Evil, and Thor's brother, Loki most recently has been reborn in female form. Gender may be somewhat of an irrelevant subject as Loki is a shapeshifter able to adopt almost any form imaginable whether it be animals, other humanoid beings, or even inanimate objects.
Born of the Frost Giant race and adopted by Odin, Loki has inherent strength, durability, longevity and regenerative healing equivalent to that of Asgardians. She is also one of the most powerful and skilled practitioners of magic and has no qualms about using the darkest of magics. Through the use of magic she has made herself further impervious to injuries, showing the ability to reattach severed limbs and survive beheading. She has a brilliant intellect and is an expert manipulator, schemer and battle strategist.
Loki possesses the ability to wield vast magical forces for a variety of purposes, among them: energy projection, creation of force fields, temporarily increasing her own physical strength, granting superhuman abilities to living beings or inanimate objects, flight, hypnotism, illusion casting, and inter-dimensional teleportation. Loki possesses some extrasensory abilities and is capable of astral projection and casting her thoughts across great distances, even across dimensional barriers. She cannot read the minds of other beings, though she can control their actions.
Above all, Loki's predominant skills are those of deception and manipulation, and she will use every tool she possesses to that end, whether that be shapechanging, illusion, enchantment, psychology, or her newfound feminine "attributes". Loki ensnares her enemies (and when necessary, her allies) in whatever reality she chooses to weave.

Megatron - Transformers
Forget the 2008 Movie. This guy was responsible for Prime's untimely demise. Pure evil, he single-handedly eliminated a majority of the Autobots.
"Originally Hasbro took issue with the name, saying it sounded too dangerous, like an atomic bomb. " - Yeah, baby, yeah!
Megatron is very powerful and utterly ruthless. His imposing robot form is dominated by his primary weapon - his arm-mounted fusion cannon, capable of leveling a city block in one blast. He can also sub-dimensionally link the weapon to a black hole, generating even more powerful anti-matter blasts (capable of destroying a small planetary body).
