Probably actually worse is:
Ten-Eyed Man
His power is that, while he has no sight through his eyes, he can see through optic nerves in each of his fingertips. Hence the ten...eyes...get it? The major advantage is that by correctly positioning his hands, he can see 360 degress. The major drawback is probably that if he balls up his fists in a fight, I'd imagine he's blind. Also, performing everyday activities must be something like getting poked in the eyes.
I suppose it could have been worse. Those optic nerves could have been in his toes.

I believe he has an eye on his belt buckle (how does that work?) that would make him hard to kick in the nads.

With my first pick:
Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet.
Here is my selection, Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet. The Mad Titan Thanos, the son of the Mentor, is one of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Universe. He possesses the Infinity Gauntlet, which granted him mastery over six basic aspects of existence: Time, Space, Power, Mind, Reality, and the Soul, making him virually omnipotent.
Not only this, but he is possesses superhuman intelligence, allowing him to lead an army of super hero killing badies.
You will want to notice in one of the pics how even the Thor and the mighty Galactus cower in his presense.
As a side note, he was "dating" Death for awhile, so you know he's a BA!!! Not to mention if Death acts up, it goes without saying that he will put her in her place.

Okeeee, let's get MBF's party started! I see that I only get six nastybaddies so I've had to narrow my list down and get serious since I have no comic book of sci fi peeps on my list.
For my first pick....
Hannibal Lecter - from Silence of the Lambs and other Thomas Harris tomes...
This guy was just bad...with a capital B. Any dude you have to have wear a modified catcher's or goalie's mask to keep from eating your face off can't be good. And if you have to enlist their help understanding somebody who is serial killing and using the skin to make a winter coat or something...under the idea "it takes one to know one" also can't be good. But Dr. Lecter was crazy bad.
To his defense tho, I would have TOTALLY bit the character standing next to the bad doctor in this still. That guy irks in the story and I would have needed a mask to keep from punking him too.

Ha! A second person/thing off my very short list. I just did not know how he would fit in with all the omnipotent beings (which is a misnomer of course -- by definition there can only be one "omnipotent being" -- one of these dudes has to be tops. You can't be omnipotenter than somebody or almost as omnipotent as somebody.)

Lecter is a nice pick. Probably wouldn't have made my list if I'd thought of him (surprised I didn't, actually), but I like.

If Batman was my top choice of good bad ***, it's only fitting that my first pick of bad bad *** be the guy who, well... broke him.
Bane - DC Comics (1993-Present) -- In truth, this wouldn't typically be my first pick of supervillain, primarily because I have other favorites and because I wouldn't want to appear a DC one-note, but given this draft's clear preference (so far) for muscular man-beasts, I figured I shouldn't let this one wait until a later round.
As the above picture shows, Bane is big. And mean. As if breaking Batman's back wasn't mean enough, his first murder was at eight years old. In the prison in which he grew up. When he stabbed a guy. With the knife he kept hidden in his teddy bear companion. Good stuff, no? And, for anyone unfamiliar with the Bane storyline (or familiar only through a certain film who's title need not be spoken, in which Bane is depicted as nothing more than a grunting sidekick), don't let the meanness and the musculature fool you. In addition to acquiring superhuman strength (and healing abilities when taking advantage of Venom, the chemical being pumped directly into his brain via tubes) and a generally unpleasant disposition while growing up in prison, he also somehow acquired a classical education and is of genius-level intellect. As an example of his talents as a strategist, the fight in which he broke Batman's back was no spontaneous brawl. Instead, Bane actually broke several other baddies out of Arkham and let them run Batman ragged terrorizing Gotham for months before ambushing him in the Batcave and taking advantage of his exhaustion. Again, I'm making this pick out of sequence in terms of my favorites, but Bane has been on my list since the beginning and, I think, will do nicely to set the tone for my group.

Doctor Doom
With Cthulu gone, hopefully this one will not cost me my other cool pick, but since I am hanging out back home in my mountain, I needed a fellow evil genius to be my eyes and ears in the fireld.
Doctor Doom is not omnipotent, he's just really really really smart. Almost as smart as me in fact. Almost. Well, not even close but you can't fault a supervillain for trying right? So smart that he's fought nearly every hero and vilain in comicbookhood at one point or the other, and banged around with the big omnipotent boys and often won. He's stolen the Silver Surfer's powers, tried to enslave the Hulk, plotted to drain Dr. Strange of his magic, tried to take thor's hammer, teamed with and opposed Galactus...you name it, he's done it. He's an expert in every science, a master of magic as well, and warms my heart by being the iron fisted ruler of his own little country of Lativera. His armor makes him a badass, but its his brain that makes him one of the iconic supervillains. And so here's my team leader putting the Muhaha in my Muhahahahahaha!
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

The stepbrother and childhood Bully of Charles Xavier. Not a mutant but instead powered by an ancient gem. His power rivals the Hulk and Thor. Once in motion not even the Hulk or Thor can impede his force.
Besides giving him superhuman strength, the mystical energy of Cyttorak grants the Juggernaut completely inexhaustible stamina, and the ability to survive without food, water or oxygen. He possesses tremendous durability, and can further project himself through a practically indestructible force-field. His healing factor is inhuman.
healing back from being just a skeleton
Also if you want to watch something funny (stupid) type in "I'm the Juggernaut" into YouTube (not safe for work, language).

Carnage
Flaws? Good luck trying to capitalize on any of them. Power, speed, self-made weapons, ultra vision... he's got it all.
The alien symbiote endows Cletus Kasady with enhanced physical strength greater than that of Spider-Man and Venom combined and shape-shifting abilities; project a web-like substance from any part of his body including form a variety of weapons; and plant thoughts into a person's head using a symbiote tendril. Much like Spider-Man, Kasady has the ability to cling to virtually any surface. He can rapidly crawl, walk, or run across even slick surfaces. He is able to rapidly regenerate damaged bodily tissues much faster and more extensively than an ordinary human.
Kasady is also immune to the effects of all Earthly diseases and infections as long as he remains bonded with the symbiote. For instance, Kasady's body itself is riddled with Cancer, yet the presence of the symbiote negates any effects the Cancer would normally have.
Unlike Venom, Carnage can launch parts of his symbiote at enemies in the form of weapons such as spears, knives, axes, etc. Venom's costume cannot replenish itself and is a definite mass while Carnage is constantly forming new molecules. Carnage's symbiote is vampiric, feeding on and thus endangering his victims by mere touch, and also has the power to "see" from any part of itself and relay the visual information to Kasady. During the 'Maximum Carnage' storyline, Carnage reveals that his symbiote has developed an immunity to sonic attacks.

Lex Luthor
After much debate, I decided to go with Luthor for a few reasons. First, every evil team needs a mastermind - and trust me, Luthor is one.
Second, he has the drive and the determination to do ANYTHING to take over the world and to stop anyone who gets in his way.
He is also one of the smartest people in the Universe.
If anyone can bring together a group of ego-driven villains and unite them for one common purpose - it is Luthor.
Lex Luthor possesses a keen intellect as well as a photographic memory. At his peak, his vast intelligence and technological know-how is matched only by notables such as Mr. Terrific and Bruce Wayne, though Lex is not quite as skilled a combatant. He rarely wades into combat without some sort of weapon; be it a power suit, gun, or a chunk of Kryptonite to deal with Superman. Perhaps his greatest asset is his ruthlessness, as he will go to absolutely any end to get what he wants, regardless of the consequences.
He would later personally develop numerous customized devices that would neutralize enemies and allies alike; a talent that enabled him to hold sway over even the most powerful members of Grodd's Legion of Doom, most notably Grodd himself.
He was also not above resorting to magic, as evidenced by his acquisition of a certain mystic medallion (similar to one belonging to the Phantom Stranger) in order to defend himself from magic-users such as Tala. However, he does not like using magic, as he feels it is "unknowable, unpredictable and not to be trusted", preferring the more refined, controlled nature of science to solve problems.
Lex Luthor is intelligent, successful, and likes nothing better than for "lesser beings" to recognize and admire him as a leader of men.

Mister Mxyzptlk is omnipotent and decides to use his powers to pester Super Man, the only way to get rid of him is to trick him say his name backwards.
He is similar and has been called Loki, Coyote, and Anansi. He can't die or be harmed. The rules of physics don't apply to him and he can basically do anything he thinks of.
He would make living on any fantasy island a living hell and if you manage to banish him, he'll be back in a couple months for more.
