*** The Archons of The Outer Church are typical {{Eldritch Abomination}}s -- slimy, chitinous, and decidedly non-human. In an interesting inversion of Lovecraft's themes, the Archons aren't entities of entropic chaos, but absolute order. When the universe reorients itself in their presence, it's not because it's breaking down, but because it's coming more in line with the Archons' specifications.

** Mister Bloom is the most uncanny Batman villain. The BigBad of [[AudienceAlienatingEra Gordon's tenure as the Bat]], he looked like a very tall and lanky creature with a TheBlank face with a yellow flower and sharp reptilian--like claws, and shows NewPowersAsThePlotDemands, including sizeshifting, [[AnIcePerson ice manipulation]] and technokinesis. Although initially presenting himself as a BotanicalAbomination, his origin reveals him to be a TranshumanAbomination, who once adquired his powers in an illegal metahuman experimentation camp, that also left him able to grow "seeds", [[BotanicalAbomination Botanical Abominations]] in their own right that can empower anyone with similar powers but also leaves them as puppets under Mr. Bloom's mind control.

** Swamp Thing himself, since is a massive monster made of mud and organic matter that serves as the elemental embodiment of the Green, an interdimensional mystical force that connects all plant life. As such, Swampy has total control of the vegetation on the universe, including being able to regenerate from nothing, creating new bodies or teleporting through entire galaxies merely by transfering his consciousness to vegetation light years away. Upon meeting him, ComicBook/BlackOrchid straight up thought of him as {{God}}.
*** Hell, every Elemental Realm could be considered an EldritchAbomination. They're billion year old mystic forces of almost endless power that expand through the multiverse and serve as the AnthropomorphicPersonification of various elements, and often need an avatar as their servant to work properly. The Green is the representation of plant life, while the Red serves as one for animal life and is ruled by MixAndMatchCritters [[AnimalisticAbomination Animalistic Abominations]]. The Grey represents fungal life, while the Divided represents bacteria, and both look even more like a BotanicalAbomination than the Green. From here, they get a bit more abstract: The Clear, the White, the Melt and the Ember represent water, air, earth and fire respectively (Red Tornado used to be a servant of the White, and Firestorm of the Ember), while the Rithm is technology. Finally and most creepy of them all, the Rot/The Black represents death and deccay, and have a tendency of creating hideous [[UndeadAbomination Undead Abominations]] that tend to overstep their rules and try to end all organic life.

* The ComicBook/{{Batman}} mythos, hile being pretty grounded in reality (Safe for some more fantastical villains like Ra's al Ghul) still has shown us a couple beings who are truly '''weird'''.
** The Joker himself might be [[HumanoidAbomination one of these.]] It's been sugested a few times that the Joker [[AmbiguouslyHuman could not be as human as he appears.]] He's a being of pure chaos and death and not only is his origin and identity a complete mistery to even the most powerful agencies in the DCU, [[JokerImmunity but he has survived things that would have killed normal humans]]. ''ComicBook/DarkseidWar'' implies that he might be Gelos, the Greek God of Laughter (Not the kind of laughter you get out of a funny comedy, but rather the mocking cackle of an insane warrior befre he slaughters his enemy), while ''ComicBook/BatmanEndgame'' left ambiguous if he was a Really700YearsOld unkillable horror that has been tormenting Gotham City since its foundation.
*** In ''ComicBook/EmperorJoker'' Mr. J absorbs a huge part of Mr. Mxyzptlk's powers, and turns into a RealityWarper OmnicidalManiac that traps Superman in a backwards world and Batman in various degrading deaths.
** Man-Bat became a disgusting AnimalisticAbomination controlled by an even worse EldritchAbomination in ComicBook/JusticeLeagueDark
** What do you get when you fuse all the Clayfaces? '''Ultimate Clayface''', a bloating hideous blob that can take any shape or form and has MakeThemRot powers so strong that they were [[PowerIncontinence too mch for Basil to handle]], and they eventually began [[AcidAttack dissolving the ground itself]] until he sunk into the core of the Earth.

* The ComicBook/NewGods's Darkseid is the AbstractApotheosis of [[GodOfEvil evil]] with acess to such uncanny powers as the AndIMustScream-inducing [[ComicBook/SevenSoldiers Omega Effect]] or the Anti-Life Equation, and who rules over a borderline-EldritchLocation found outside of time and space. Canonically every Darkseid in the multiverse (And New God for that matter) is just a fraction of the true entity, which are implied to live infinite dimensions about us and to be the essence of what they represent. This means that Darkseid isn't just the GodOfEvil inside the comic, [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou he is a fraction of our reality's platonic ideal of Evil!]]
** Darkseid's eldritch status is playe for all it's worth during ComicBook/FinalCrisis; after his reincarnation into Dan Turpin, his presence actually starts to decay time and space. Mandrakk is using Darkseid's attack to hide his own plans (but is stopped before getting too far). How does Darkseid [[RealityWarper break reality]] (one parallel universe actually is destroyed by this)? He sits on his throne, waiting for reality to die [[CosmicFlaw MERELY BECAUSE HE]] [[BrownNoteBeing EXISTS.]]
*** Relating to Darkseid, the Omega Effect is an EldritchAbomination in itself: It's an extradimensional force that not only can it desintegrate almost anything (If you're as tough as Cyborg Superman maybe you will just barely die) and allow Darkseid to then recreate you as a zombie, but also has the Life Trap, which is manifested as a void [[HumanoidAbomination with a vaguely human shape called the Omega Sanction]] that traps you infinitely in increasingly more dreadful lifes until you become a servant of Anti-Life. [[ComicBook/SevenSoldiers Shilo Norman]], the greatest escape artist ever trained by the AbstractApotheosis of freedom is so far the only thing to have escaped the Omega Sanction's full power.
*** Finally, the Anti-Life Equation is ''also'' an EldritchAbomination: A sentient abstract mathematical formula that shows the futility of life and can destroy free will. Some parts of it tend to crop on Earth, particularly in its collective unconscious through characters like Sonny Sumo or Empress, the reason of Darkseid's continous attacks on Earth, despite multiple instances showing that not even Darkseid could either fully control or even comprehend Anti-Life, since it's tied directly to the Source, one of the few things Darkseid is powerless against. Pied Piper channeling the whole equation through ThePowerOfRock was enough to kill [[HumanoidAbomination Desaad]] and destroy APOKOLIPS.

Some parts of it tend to crop on Earth, particularly in its collective unconscious through characters like Sonny Sumo or Empress, the reason of Darkseid's continous attacks on Earth, despite multiple instances showing that not even Darkseid could either fully control or even comprehend Anti-Life, since it's tied directly to the Source, one of the few things Darkseid is powerless against. Pied Piper channeling the whole equation through ThePowerOfRock was enough to kill [[HumanoidAbomination Desaad]] and destroy APOKOLIPS. ''Cosmic Odyssey'' shows the Anti-Life Equation as a shadowy BrownNoteBeing so powerful and evil that it forces [[EnemyMine Darkseid to work with his sworn enemies to stop it]] (Although it was later retconned to be a different creature). ''The Death of the New Gods'' also features a similar concept, where Anti-Life being revealed to be one-half of a cosmic being that was split into two by the war of the Old Gods, but this was also retconned later, although not 100% dropped.
