* ''ComicBook/Marvel2099'' (Earth-928): [[TheStarscream Sophia Striker]], once the first lady to President Graeme Stryker, became known as "Seeress" after corporations ruined the entire planet. The Seeress became TheDragon to Dethstryk--the new Graeme--and, secretly loathing what her husband had become, plotted for decades to undermine him. After a number of failed uprisings she attempted by convincing would-be Mutroud rebels to attempt coups, the Seeress eventually turned to manipulating Ravage, trying to use him as a pawn in her attempts to thwart Dethstryk. In spite of numerous setbacks, the Seeress is the one to screw Dethstryk over once and for all, installing a [[ThanatosGambit posthumous "death program"]] to depower Dethstryk, leaving him to the mercy of Ravage, and using her last moments to try and ensure peace between the humans and the Mutroids.

** [[Characters/MarvelComicsDoctorDoom Doctor Doom]] himself, displaced into a dystopian future, immediately claws his way back to dominance and transforms himself from a cruel tyrant into the bombastically brilliant, [[AntiHero yet no less megalomaniacal]], [[BigGood savior of the world]]. In no short order, Doom outwits and slays Latveria's new dictator; usurps complete control over Cyberspace, before directing an A.I. against an antagonistic corporation when she takes his powers; and steals Alchemax's floating city from under the noses of 2099's other heroes, which he then uses to take over another nation before cornering and destroying an imposter and his own former partner. Not content with this unstoppable rise to power, Doom resolves to save the world from the ruthless grip of mega-corps, orchestrating a brutally swift conquest of the United States in which he [[GoodIsNotSoft viciously]] restores free speech, equal rights, and environmental health while empowering numerous heroes to enact justice unmitigated. Though quickly ousted by the monstrous John Herod, Doom strikes back from the shadows to wipe out Herod's entire power base, leaving Herod himself in eternal pain before he travels back in time to undo the genocide of Latveria. Even when confronted by a Phalanx invasion upon his return, Doom reveals he had already been planning for them, using them to restore Latveria's broken land before sabotaging the invasion. Despite his unquenchable lust for power and control, Doom grows to truly care for others and proves willing to do anything to safeguard his people, ultimately sacrificing himself to save the world while entrusting his allies with leading the way to peace and prosperity for all.

Forging a galaxies-wide, centuries-spanning empire by his tactical genius, Kang routinely returns to the 20th century to engage the Avengers, repeatedly outsmarting them and always [[NearVillainVictory coming close to ultimate victory]]. Combining an insatiable drive to conquer with an odd sense of honor, Kang often fails solely due to future versions of himself interfering. At one point, Kang even manages to divest his destiny from his future self and forms a council consisting of alternate Kangs, only to completely outwit and destroy them. In ''ComicBook/TheKangDynasty'', Kang razes Washington DC and masterminds a near complete take over of earth, planning even in defeat to leave his empire to his son Marcus, before being forced to kill Marcus for his betrayal when Marcus rescues him. Kang repeatedly shows he is one of the Avengers' most resilient and dangerous enemies, stopping at nothing until all he can imagine falls under his dominion.

* ''ComicBook/BatmanAndCaptainAmerica'': This incarnation of [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker the Joker]] lacks many unsavory traits of other versions. Receiving information from a mysterious figure, he decides to use a nuclear weapon to blackmail Gotham City into paying him $1,000,000. He first plans to build his own nuke, successfully obtaining radioactive material and cleverly escaping from Batman in the process. When this approach fails after [[Characters/BatmanTheCharacter Batman]] and [[Characters/MarvelComicsSteveRogers Captain America]] foil an attempt to kidnap UsefulNotes/RobertOppenheimer, he changes tack and decides to steal a prototype atomic bomb. After succeeding, he learns that his informer is [[Characters/MarvelComicsRedSkull Red Skull]]. [[EvenEvilHasStandards Declaring his hatred of Nazism]], Joker tries to kill the Skull, and helps foil his plan to nuke Washington, D.C. [[ComicBook/SupermanAndBatmanGenerations Years later]], he helps plot and execute a scheme to permanently DePower Superman, only narrowly failing. Then he spends several years masquerading as his own non-existent successor as part of a long-term ploy to kill Dick Grayson, the second Batman, cheerfully turning himself in after he succeeds. Some time later, tormented by Dick's vengeful ghost, he refuses to break, and when he realizes his death is inevitable, he accepts it with quiet grace. Ruthless, witty, and able to roll with the punches, the Joker demonstrates that he's earned his title of "Clown Prince of Crime".
* ''Franchise/{{Batman}}''/''ComicBook/{{Daredevil}}'': In this universe, [[Characters/BatmanTwoFace Two-Face]] is a supervillain and former lawyer who attended law school with Matt Murdock.

Hyde and Two-Face go on a crime spree and kill some civilians. Two-Face is giving Hyde pills to increase his intelligence. Those pills are in fact the formula for the organic computer and the more pills Hyde takes and the more adrenaline he uses, the faster the computer will grow in his brain [[AssholeVictim until it kills him]]. Two-Face will go on to sell the computer to the highest bidder. Two-Face almost succeeds, only stopping after Daredevil appeals to his humanity and stops Hyde from killing a teenager.

* ''ComicBook/DarkAgesMarvelComics:'' [[Characters/MarvelComicsDoctorDoom Doctor Doom]] is once again depicted like he is in mainline canon, as a brilliant mastermind, albeit more [[AntiHero antiheroic]] than normal. After being ousted as the ruthless dictator of Latveria, Doom relocates and uses his genius to help rebuild the rest of the world with the heroes of Marvel. Doom helps the heroes as they take on [[Characters/MarvelComicsApocalypse Apocalypse]] and his armies, well favoring ruthless and underhanded actions.
