** ''Film/AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania'': Kang the Conqueror, much like Lucifer and his angels rebelling against God, started a multiversal war in the hopes of ruling the multiverse and was cast down into a prison dimension when he lost, where he quickly made himself ruler. He's a compulsive liar and master deceiver, fooling Janet van Dyne for years on end into thinking he's a benevolent figure and making a Faustian bargain with Scott and Cassie Lang. His army of robot soldiers evoke TheLegionsOfHell, and the inhabitants of the Quantum Realm's refusal to speak his mind call to mind the Christian practice of not acknowledging the Devil.

** The High Evolutionary from ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3'' is one the most chillingly on the nose examples. On the surface he seems like an affable and beatific idealist who wants a create life free from flaws and hate. Yet in actuality as Rocket (one of his victims/creations note he doesn’t really want to make things perfect he just hates things they way they are much like Lucifer is said to hate all of Gods’ creations. The High Evolutionary also shares the Devil’s FatalFlaw of {{pride}}, for when Rocket his creation and small animal figures out a flaw in his evolutionary machine, he is infuriated [[spoiler:and sadistically murders Lylla, Teefs walrus, and Floor in cold blood right in front of Rocket and mocks his cries of grief like the loathsome bastard he is]]. Not to mention the fact he’s willingly to genocide entire race he has created the moment a single one shows a flaw. The Lucifer allusions reach their peak during the climax in the middle of the High Evolutionary‘s VillainousBreakdown where he claims to his up until loyal subordinates “There is no God! That's why I stepped in!” [[EvenEvilHasStandards which makes them react in disgust and turn against him]].

*** There's also [[Characters/MonsterVerseSkullIslandKaijuAndOtherCreatures the alpha Skullcrawler Ramarak]] in ''Film/KongSkullIsland''. He's the largest and most dominant among a horde of malevolent creatures who are like him, who emerge from beneath the earth (hell); seeking to defeat the benevolent protector god and destroy the world that is his kingdom (Skull Island is regarded by the Iwi as their world due to its isolation) and all its human inhabitants.

** ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' of course has the Green Goblin, whom the [[Film/SpiderMan1 Raimi film]] already set up as satanic well in advance. Once an affable ScienceHero Norman Osborn [[FallenHero fell]] to his own ambition and was turned into a evil demon-esque mad man who desires nothing but power [[ForTheEvulz and to cause as much chaos as possible]]. Not only does he appear wreathed in flames to beckon the pure hearted hero Peter into temptation, but the Satan-allegory becomes truly overt when he attacks Aunt May while she’s praying and makes her finish the verse “deliver us... '''FROM EVIL!'''” while cackling like Lucifer himself. ''No Way Home'' doubles down on the connection, with Norman manipulating the good nature of MCU Spidey and Aunt May to his own will but after revealing his true colours [[spoiler: he murders May in front of Peter (after setting everything on fire) and tries to goad the young Spider-Man [[StrikeMeDownWithAllOfYourHatred to give into hatred and kill him]] which is thankfully prevented by Raimiverse Spider-Man himself. The Goblin’s evil much like devil is mass encompassing as by the end of the film he’s robbed Spider-Man of his loved ones by making the world forget his identity and even damaged the multiverse.]]

*** Interestingly Adam Warlock, the High Evolutionary’s creation/son can be considered a AntiAntiChrist who fully invokes Biblical imagery not only doing the PietaPlagiarism pose with his mother Ayesha [[spoiler: but after his HeelFaceTurn whilst saving Peter from the vacuum of space does [[https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQpdiN0C_XVDWXoAdZV-8aHhFtbtrMFbsb87A&usqp=CAU Michelangelo’s Adam and God]] [[SistineSteal pose.]]]]
