History Characters / YoungJusticeOtherVillains

%% Villains are in alphabetical order, using the name or codename that they are called by the most and if a civilian name then their last name. For example: Dr. Mark Desmond is Blockbuster but he was called by his given name for most of the episode therefore he would be categorized under "D" for "Desmond".
%%
%% For codenames that involve titles like Captain or Mister, categorize them under the following name instead of those titles. Mr Freeze is categorized under Freeze.
%%
%% Character portraits should be perfectly square and exactly 300 pixels wide. The character portrait should be from promotional material (i.e. character posters) if available, if not screencaps. Portraits of characters should be replaced with high-quality ones from the newest season if available.

!!Branchwater

A meta crime covert ops unit disguised as a security firm.
----

[[folder:General]]
A company used by Simon Stagg for corporate espionage, and or corporate warfare. Unlike Bedlam, they "liberate" meta prisoners and use nano-tech created by Jervis Tetch to force them to follow their commands.
----
* {{Expy}}: InUniverse Nightwing compares it to Bedlam.
* WouldHurtAChild: They would use metacriminals despite their ages. Livewire and Mist are said to be minors.

%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Unknown

The head of Stagg Industries.
----
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: A powerful businessman with no qualms about exploiting the metahuman trafficking industry or enslaving metas for his own gain.
* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler:Shade, one of the metas that Stagg had enslaved by Mad Hatter, approaches Stagg in his prison cell with murderous intent.]]
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Doesn't get a speaking role in his first and likely only appearance, the entire Team mission to capture and expose his crimes is largely glossed over, and by the end of the episode he's heavily implied to have been murdered in his cell by Shade.
* WhamShot: His imprisonment [[spoiler:and supposed death at the hands of Shade]] can be seen as this, as he is usually responsible for causing Metamorpho's transformation, who is confirmed to appear later on the series.

!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DwightSchultz

A Batman rogue, now working for Simon Stagg to create mind control tech to use on metahuman criminals.
----
* BadBoss: Is willing to blow up his own hideout to evade capture...with his mind controlled minion Clayface inside. Fortunately for Clayface, he can recover from such things, and Robin even releases him from his control later.
* BullyingTheDragon: Forces [[spoiler:Shade]] to punch himself in the face, just to test if his mind control tech is working properly (despite the fact that he has already seen it function a few seconds ago).
* HypnoTrinket
* KickTheDog: Abuses [[spoiler:Shade]] and leaves Clayface for dead while they're both under his mind control and unable to do a thing about it.
* LargeHam: "Well, what part of MAD Hatter didn't ya GET!?"
* MindControlDevice: Uses nano-tech injected to the controlled metas.
* TheMadHatter: To the point that his parole agreement would not even allow him to wear any hat in public.
* ReusedCharacterDesign: From WesternAnimation/BatmanBadBlood.
* WouldHurtAChild: Injected both Livewire and Mist with mind control nanotech, both of which are confirmed to be minors.

[[folder:Livewire]]
!!''Livewire (Leslie Willis)''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_livewire.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Metahuman
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BrittBaron

Metahuman who has electric-based powers.
----
* AgeLift: Most versions of Livewire are adults. Here she's a teen.
* AdaptationalHeroism: This version of Livewire was mind-controlled into being a supervillain and she immediately changed sides after being freed. Though she does have a tendency to turn good eventually, her comics and DCAU counterparts were villains by choice.
* AdaptationalWimp: Comics!Livewire and even the one from ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'' have far stronger electricity powers. They can even become living electricity and travel through electronic devices.
* BigSisterInstinct: The first thing she does when Mist is recovering from an accident involving Windfall's powers is to ask if she hurt her and glare menacingly at Windfall.
* DeadpanSnarker: Gleefully lampshades a number of Shade's inadvertent double-entendres.
-->'''Shade:''' The photo didn't indicate scale. It's larger than I imagined.\\
'''Livewire:''' I thought size didn't matter?
* HeelFaceTurn: Joins a metahuman youth center after being freed from Hatter's control. A photo on Beast Boy's phone in season 4 suggest that she might've joined the Outsiders.
* ShockAndAwe: Her metahuman powers allows this, however it's not strong enough to rival Black Lightning's.
* TeensAreMonsters: Gives this vibe while being under Mad Hatter's control. However it is unknown if this was her true personality as she was actually on transfer to a prison before she got "liberated" by Branchwater.

[[folder:Mist]]
!!''Mist (Andy)''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_mist.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Metahuman
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Daniela Bobadilla

Metahuman who can become a living mist.
----
* AdaptationalDyeJob: The female Mist (Nash Nimbus) from the comics has black hair, here she has white hair.
* AgeLift: The female Mist from the comics was an adult. Here she's a teen.
* ApologeticAttacker: She seems to be the only one of the mind controlled metahumans that's fully aware that she is being controlled, as she can't stop her hands from choking Nightwing, all the while apologizing for it.
* CensorSteam: Or censor mist, can be seen once Nightwing freezes her mist form solid, this is due to the trope below.
* FullFrontalAssault: A split second scene shows her clothes falling while becoming her living mist form. After she's frozen solid, the Outsiders throw a blanket over Mist to cover up her exposed body.
* HeelFaceTurn: Joins a metahuman youth center after being freed from Hatter's control.
* [[IntangibleMan Intangible Girl]]: In mist form.
* LethalJokeCharacter: Nightwing underestimates her combat ability due to her power set and lets his guard down, allowing her to sucker punch him and begin choking him out.
* RaceLift: The female Mist from the comics was white. Here she is AmbiguouslyBrown.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Shade]]
!!''Shade''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_shade.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Metahuman
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Joel Swetow

Metahuman who can control shadows.
----
* AdaptationDyeJob: In the comics, Shade had jet black hair even before he received his shadow powers. In Young Justice, he has reddish-brown hair instead.
* AffablyEvil: After being released by Cheshire, he gratefully bows to her before dropping into a shadow.
* BlackEyesOfCrazy: Not Shade himself, but his mask has this feature, with small, [[RedEyesTakeWarning red irises]] surrounded by pure black.
* CastingAShadow: Just like in the comics.
* TheDogBitesBack: Upon his release by Cheshire, he immediately [[spoiler: goes after Simon Stagg, presumably to kill him]].
* EvilIsNotAToy: Was mentally enslaved by Mad Hatter at the direction of Simon Stagg in a metahuman trafficking operation. When he's freed by episode's end he's last seen [[spoiler: teleportating into Stagg's cell, with presumably lethal motives]].
* MythologyGag: His mask resembles his face from WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague.
* NiceHat: Puts what is presumably his old top hat on at the end of his debut episode.
* NothingIsScarier: [[spoiler: We never see what he did to Stagg at the end of "Triptych", but given how we never hear from Stagg again, we can only guess...]]
* PowersDoTheFighting: Almost never lifts a finger during the fight with Nightwing's team.
* ThinkingUpPortals: He can use shadows as portals to teleport or contain things. He uses them deftly in combat to redirect attacks.
* WeakenedByTheLight: At the very least is pained by the blinding light emitted by Halo. He even starts burning.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Shade is one of the few loose ends of "Triptych". The last we see of him is when he [[spoiler: invades Stagg's prison cell to get even for turning him into a mind-controlled slave]], but he's never heard from again.
* WhiteMaskOfDoom: Unlike the comics, his deathly pallor is not his natural appearance. He looks deceptively normal before it's revealed who he is outside of it.

A physician employed by Branchwater.
----

!!Independent Villains
[[folder:Brick]]
!!''Brick (Daniel "Danny" Brickwell)''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_brick.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Metahuman
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KharyPayton

A criminal from Star City and enemy of Green Arrow.
----
* BadassInANiceSuit: And he was rightly pissed when Speedy ruined the suit. Do you know how much it costs to get a suit in his size?
%%* BeardOfEvil
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Demands that Nightwing and Red Arrow "put [him] down" after they do a two-man lift on him. He [[ThisIsGonnaSuck realizes he's in trouble]] when they immediately agree, at which point they throw him off the front of the semi they're standing on, causing him to get run over.
* BoringYetPractical: His plan to steal Goode Goggles, rather than a high-risk attack, he simply has his men used forged credentials to take the trucks, and it would have worked had Red Arrow's clipboard not told him they were the wrong delivery people.
* BoxedCrook: [[spoiler: In the Audio Play "The Prize", he is working for Amanda Waller's Task Force X.]]
* ButtMonkey: Is defeated or humiliated in some way in evry single one of his appearances.
* ClothingDamage: Thanks to Speedy's exploding arrows.
%%* DarkSkinnedBlond
* DeadpanSnarker: Brick's snarky attitude is good for displaying his general contempt towards others.
--> '''Riddler''': No one can say the Riddler goes where he's not wanted.\\
'''Brick''': Wow. That philosophy must not leave you with a lot of options.
* MuggingTheMonster: His attempt to steal Goode Goggles goes awry because Red Arrow's new security company happened to be the one guarding the goggles, and notice his men aren't the right ones. He's utterly confused at how a bunch of security guards could have defeated him, unaware that it was really Red Arrow, Nightwing, Arsenal, and Guardian I.
%%* ScaryBlackMan
* SleevesAreForWimps: In Belle Reve.
* SuperStrength: Strong enough to punch through the roof of Will's SUV.
* SuperToughness: Can withstand small explosives or getting run over by a semi truck with a fully loaded cab.
* UnluckilyLucky: When Abra Kadabra and Sportsmaster attack his and Shade's prisoner transport truck to break them out, Brick gets recaptured along with Abra Kadabra. Which, as is lampshaded, actually lucky for him as it saved him from getting brainwashed by the Mad Hatter as Shade was.

[[folder:Despero]]
!!''Despero''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_despero.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Kalanorian
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DeeBradleyBaker

An alien warlord who comes to earth seeking to challenge the strongest beings on Earth.
----
* AdaptationDeviation: In the comics he's tyrant of the planet Kalanor who came into contact with the league while searching for escaped rebels. After his first defeat his motivations veered toward getting vengeance on them. Here he's a gladiator seeking to challenge the league.
* BloodKnight: Despero is a brutal gladiator who cracks a wide grin at the prospect of taking on the Justice League.
* ChallengeSeeker: His motivation for coming to Earth.
* CompositeCharacter: As the alien master of L-Ron, he takes some traits from Justice League International villain Manga Khan.
* DiabolusExNihilo: The only villain in season two who isn't connected to the Light or the Reach at all and has his own motivations for coming to Earth, though the Reach Ambassador does take advantage of the situation to smear the Justice League.
* DoesNotLikeMagic: According to L-Ron, it's considered "cheating", as Despero prefers a "hands-on" approach.
* GladiatorGames: Forces his intended opponents into one. According to L-Ron, he is a gladiatorial champion of 92 star systems.
* HuntingTheMostDangerousGame: Implied to be an aspect of his ChallengeSeeker motivation, collecting the heads of his opponents.
* TheJuggernaut: He spends most of the episode beating the crap out of both Captain Marvel ''and'' Superboy with no chance of even slowing him down. He eventually had to be stopped by reflecting his own psychic blasts against him.
* NighInvulnerability: He shrugged off getting hit by Captain Marvel's magic lightning.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: He's definitely a BloodKnight and ChallengeSeeker, but when it comes to dealing with magic-wielding opponents, Despero just uses his third eye to render them catatonic.
* {{Omniglot}}: While he doesn't speak, he seems to at least understand both [[Franchise/StarWars R2-style beeps]] and English, having just encountered the latter.
* PsychicPowers: His third eye can produce a psychic blast that puts its victims in a silent, motionless trance. Interestingly, he only uses this against foes he's uninterested in fighting, and Bumblebee when she makes him particularly mad.
* ThirdEye: Through which he channels his PsychicPowers.
* TheVoiceless: Whether by choice or incapability is unknown.
* WouldntHurtAChild: Well, won't ''duel'' them, at least. He was giving a particularly brutal CurbStompBattle to [[ComicBook/{{Shazam}} Captain Marvel]] when the latter, trying to harm him with magic lightning, [[OlderAlterEgo turned back into Billy Batson]]; Despero, unimpressed, [[PsychicPowers put him in a trance]] and then just left him on the ground.

!!''L-Ron''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_l_ron.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Robot
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/PhilLaMarr

Despero's robot majordomo.
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: While he started out as a servant of the more lighthearted supervillain Manga Khan, he's become an ally of the League in the comics, but here, he works for Despero.
* TheDragon: Serves as Despero's majordomo.
* HammyHerald: He dramatically announces Despero's presence to the heroes of Earth, telling them of his master's accomplishments and grandeur.
* {{Omniglot}}: His default mode of speech seems to be [[Franchise/StarWars R2-style beeps]], but he adapts to English quickly after he starts communicating to the Team.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: When his patience runs out.
* RobotBuddy: To Despero.
* TakingYouWithMe: Activates a self-destruct when his master is beaten.
* TelescopingRobot: He is utterly stuffed with guns. Not that he gets a chance to use them.
* VerbalTic: He ends a lot of words with "-ism," even when its being translated from his beeping.
* VoiceForTheVoiceless: Communicates all of Despero's unspoken intent.

[[folder:Harm]]
!!''Harm (William Hayes)''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_harm.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BenDiskin

A sociopathic supervillain that Artemis and Zatanna comes across on Halloween night.
----
* AbusiveOffspring: Harm gleefully terrorizes his adoptive parents, to the point that when he was just 11 years old, he sliced his adoptive dad's neck, barely missing his jugular. He also murdered his adoptive little sister Greta, [[spoiler:who became the heroine Secret.]]
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: In the smallest possible sense. The comics version of Harm is an honest-to-goodness sociopath who felt no remorse for murdering his sister. This version ''is'' sorry he did it, as much as he claims otherwise.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Except with a sword.
* ArrowCatch: Catches several of Artemis's arrows.
%%* BadassLongcoat
* BadassNormal: At least, from what we can see, he's a normal human who just happens to wield a magical sword.
* CainAndAbel: Much like the trope namers, he (Cain) murdered his sibling Greta (Abel).
* CreepyMonotone: Harm maintains a cold, steady voice, which helps sell his characterisation as TheSociopath. It falls apart at the same time as his remorseless façade.
* DiabolusExNihilo: To some level. He's pretty much the only villain in the entire show who does not work for, is associated with someone who works for, or was an unknowing pawn of the Light and whose actions did not affect the Light's goals in any way whatsoever.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: He's pale enough to pass for a vampire.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: {{Defied|Trope}}. To gain his "purity," he murdered the only person he loved: his little sister. [[NotSoStoic But he didn't count on seeing her ghost...]]
* EvilSoundsDeep: Speaks in a deep, guttural monotone that gets even rougher when his VillainousBreakdown kicks in.
%%* FingerlessGloves
* HeroKiller: An aspiring one; he targets Zatanna and Artemis to serve as practice for his plans to kill Zatara and Green Arrow.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Has fourth claw marks across his left eye.
* ImplacableMan: [[InfinityPlusOneSword The Sword of Beowulf]] grants him this power.
* ItIsDehumanizing: How he refers to others. Can be a bit awkward when it leads him to say things like "the its" and "the other it".
* KnifeNut: Also has some throwing knives.
* KnightOfCerebus: He only appeared in one episode, but it was the HalloweenEpisode so he caused most of the humour to go out of the window.
* NoShirtLongJacket: Harm wears no shirt under his coat, exposing the tattoo over his heart.
* NotSoStoic: When Secret brings Artemis and Zatanna to his ''house,'' we get the first glimmer of his VillainousBreakdown.
--> '''Harm''': This can be no coincidence. They alight on Harm's very roof! HOW DID THEY KNOW? ''TELL'' HARM! ''NOW!''
* OnlyThePureOfHeart: May weld the Sword of Beowulf, which leads to:
** PureIsNotGood: Since Sword of Beowulf can only be wielded by those with a pure heart it was assumed that only a purely good person can wield it, but Harm proves that it can also be wielded by a purely evil person.
* RuggedScar: Has a claw-like scar on his face.
* SmugSnake
* TheSociopath: Shows no remorse for murdering his sister. [[SubvertedTrope This gets subverted,]] though, because he ''[[VillainousBreakdown completely loses his cool]]'' when Secret actually shows up.
* StrangeSyntaxSpeaker: Harm refers to himself in the third person and refers to other people solely as "it", even when referring to them indirectly (he says "the its" instead of "them", and "the other it" instead of "her").
* SuperpowerMeltdown: After Secret removes the pure evil from his heart, [[InfinityPlusOneSword the Sword Of Beowulf]] violently rejects him and removes the powers it bestowed upon him.
%%* SwordBeam
* ThirdPersonPerson: How he refers to himself, but interestingly he drops it as a result of his VillainousBreakdown, shouting "Harm is not sorry- I'M NOT!" just before losing his power.
%%* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks
* TheUnfettered: He tries to attain this state to master the sword by killing his sister, but her appearing again fetters and defeats him.
* VillainousBreakdown: Begins a gradual one when Secret leads Artemis and Zatanna to the roof of his home. Eventually, he even drops the ThirdPersonPerson act when Secret emerges from her grave and removes the 'purity' of his heart.

[[folder:Lobo]]
!!''ComicBook/{{Lobo}} (Hahn Sho Lobo)''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yjo_lobo_7.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Czarnian
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DavidSobolov

An alien bounty hunter.
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Of a sort. In the comics, he's an iconic HeroicComedicSociopath who does some pretty messed-up stuff, but only ever in good fun. In this show, he's just a brutal and terrifyingly powerful hired killer who's flamboyant, but more scary than funny, and is always acting against the heroes.
* BadassBiker: He's an intergalactic bounty hunter who drives a hoverbike and throws down with a girl with super strength.
* BloodKnight: Lobo is a great lover of violence and killing, although he's enough of a professional to lay off of any interfering heroes once he's completed his contract.
* BoisterousBruiser: Lobo takes a great deal of enjoyment in his work, and is happy to make that clear in his fights against Batgirl and Wonder Girl and the Outsiders.
* BountyHunter: His profession is hunting down targets for money. In both appearances, he's sent to Earth to capture/kill a target.
* CoolBike: His spaceship is a rocket bike. Said bike seems to be as autonomous as Super-Cycle and has enough firepower to drive it away when Superboy and the Super-Cycle team up against Lobo.
* DarkerAndEdgier: In Season 3, Lobo has dropped the usual ComicRelief elements of him, and is unrepentantly murderous.
* EvilSoundsDeep: [[PunchClockVillain For a given value of "evil"]]; Lobo's a brutal antagonist to the heroes with a very deep, guttural voice.
* FantasticSlurs: "Krolo". He has a habit of using the word Keezy in a derogatory sense; Keezy Fem, Keezy Krolo. "Krolo" is just short for Krolotean, and "Fem" means 'girl' - "Keezy" roughly translates to "small" or "puny," with an ''extremely'' derogatory connotation. Season 3 allows for the return of the less-subtle "bastich", his trademark catch-all curse.
* HealingFactor: He heals a mild burn from lava in seconds. Cutting off his pinky sticks, though it may have grown back eventually.
** Come two episodes after losing the pinkie, the CreditsGag seems to show [[spoiler:that the pinkie ITSELF is starting to grow back a Lil’ Lobo... at least until Lobo himself offs it.]]
* HooksAndCrooks: This version has one in gun form.
* ImplacableMan: Wonder Girl and Batgirl were unable to stop him, and he flies off on his bike none the worse for wear. Later when he's sent after Forager, they are only able to get rid of him because Forager had faked his own death.
* TheJuggernaut: His appearance in ''Outsiders'' shows him at his finest. The combined forces of the Nightwing's team only inconvenience him, and when he "kills" Forager, he remarks they actually did ''better'' than most.
* PardonMyKlingon: Mixes some "swears" in his native language, like "frag".
* PunchClockVillain: He only fights the heroes because they're in the way of his bounty, and doesn't fight them any longer than he needs to. When sent to kill Forager, Lobo immediately offers the rest of the Outsiders a chance to walk away, and even after they've thrown everything they had into taking him down, Lobo just walks away after he appears to have succeeded, holding no grudges and even complimenting the heroes about how well they fought against him.
* TheRedBaron: Subverted; in this continuity, Lobo's common moniker from the comics, "The Main Man", is the literal translation of his full name, Hahn Sho Lobo.
* SirSwearsALot: Although it's all in [[PardonMyKlingon Interlac]], Lobo laces his language with quite a few profane-sounding words, like "keezy", "frag", and "bastich".
* SuperToughness: He treats lava like a hot bath and can trade blows with Wonder Girl and Superboy without breaking a sweat.
* ThereCanBeOnlyOne: [[spoiler:As mentioned above, the lost digit did, in fact, create a tiny, pinkie-sized Lil' Lobo. Only for The Main Man himself to crush it beneath his boot, then [[CigarFuseLighting toss his cigar at it]] in order to [[KillItWithFire make it catch on fire and keep it from regenerating again]].]]
* ThirdPersonPerson: Not exclusively, but he often refers to himself as "The Main Man" - or, in Interlac, "Hahn Sho Lobo".
* TranslatorMicrobes: A device on his belt translates his Interlac to English. Given he slips back into Interlac at times, it's implied they're not particularly robust translators.
* UnwittingPawn: Downplayed, as it's unlikely that he cares as long as he gets paid, but basically the whole point of his hit on the Krolotean impersonating the UN Secretary-General was to reveal the Krolotean presence on Earth to the Justice League so that they'd take care of them for the Reach. Happens again in Season 3 since Vandal Savage didn't even really care whether or not he successfully killed Forager -- the contract's real purpose was to confirm that Nightwing had indeed formed a new team. And again, it's unlikely that Lobo would care as long as he got paid.
* VillainRespect: After fighting the Outsiders in Season 3, he commends them for "doing better than most".
* WouldHitAGirl: Has no problem attacking Batgirl and Wonder Girl when they get in his way, and kills Halo (temporarily) when she tries to escape with his bounty.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: He barks out a few incredulous words in Interlac in his debut that go untranslated in response to being attacked, first by a [[PunyEarthlings soldier trying to shoot him]], then by Wonder Girl. The general tone implies that it means "Really?"

[[folder:Mongul]]
!!''Mongul''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_mongul.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Unspecified alien
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KeithDavid

An alien conqueror who comes at odds with both the Reach and Earth by proxy.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: In the comics, he's in the running for the title of "most vile being in the DCU", and his motivations largely boil down to "be the biggest dick in the universe". Here, he's not exactly a good person by any means, but his apparent desire to bring down the Reach is very understandable even if his methods aren't nice though it is more out of PragmaticVillainy.
* BadassBaritone: Courtesy of Keith David
* CurbStompBattle: He delivers an absolutely brutal one to the team, shrugging off their blows and delivering back hits twice as hard. In fact, the only one who seems to match him blow-for-blow is Black Beetle, who himself is nearly unbeatable.
* DeadpanSnarker: Lets out a few quips as he pummels Superboy, Wonder Girl, and Arsenal.
--> "''This is your attack force? I'm insulted.''"\\
"'''The novelty of this encounter has officially worn off.''"\\
''[after shrugging off tranquilizer gas]'' "''I like that. [[Film/ApocalypseNow It smells like... victory.]]''"
* TheDreaded: He seems to be this if the reaction to his presence in the courtroom on Rimbor is any indication.
* EvilSoundsDeep
* EvilVersusEvil: Hates the Reach and is actively against them. Invoked in "The Hunt" when Arsenal releases him from containment, knowing he'll go after Black Beetle. He does.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Mongul affects a regal demeanor, describing his actions as a mercy and taking offense when the heroes oppose his efforts. His claims of being on an errand of mercy might carry more weight if weren't an infamous tyrant trying to destroy an entire planet to weaken the Reach.
* GalacticConqueror: Having lost his original world to an unspecified usurper, he plans to use the [=WarWorld=] to conquer the rest of the galaxy before taking it back. He sees the Reach's takeover of the meta-gene rich Earth as a threat to this plan.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: He's defeated when Bumblebee reroutes the power of the [=WarWorld=] straight to his command center, electrocuting him severely. This weakens him enough to be beaten by the group that he had previously easily dealt with.
* ItsTheOnlyWayToBeSure: He wants to destroy the entire planet in order to halt the Reach.
* TheJuggernaut: Brute strength, missiles, lassos, hardening gel; he {{No Sell}}s everything and keeps going.
* LetsYouAndHimFight: Against Black Beetle, courtesy of Arsenal.
* MercyKill: He views destroying the Earth as a favor to its populace, considering what their lives under the Reach would be if allowed to continue.
--> '''Mongul''': Your deaths today in the face of the Reach are a ''mercy''. My grand laser emitter would have ended your world in a matter of minutes; another mercy. But it seems the mercies of Mongul are not appreciated, so we will do this the hard way, and the [=WarWorld=] will unleash ''all'' it's weapons on the Earth. You're welcome.
* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: He's willing to go to pretty extreme lengths to stop the Reach, but only because the Reach are getting in the way of [[DespotismJustifiesTheMeans his plans for galactic domination.]]
* OneManArmy: With the [=WarWorld=] under his command, Mongul has enough firepower at his command to outmatch the Reach armada, to say nothing of the resistance Earth itself could put up. And even if they got by its defenses, his freakish strength makes him a match for any combatant. Even fellow OneManArmy Black Beetle was visibly struggling against him, and required aid from Green Beetle just to send him back to his stasis chamber.
* ThePowerOfTheSun: Implies that his species is empowered under a yellow sun in a similar manner to Kryptonians.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
* SpannerInTheWorks: He threw a massive wrench in the Reach's plans. They had to expose their hidden armada (two-thirds of which were obliterated by the [=WarWorld=]) and the fact that Jaime is now working for them. Worse still, the Light then took away the [=WarWorld=]'s key and rescued the heroes Jaime had captured.
* TheStoic: Mongul is remarkably calm, even as the team infiltrates the [=WarWorld=].
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: The [=WarWorld=] is covered with enough guns and missile launchers that the Justice League and the Reach armada would have probably lost by attrition, and that's not even counting the WaveMotionGun and endless supply of anti-personnel drones to curtail boarders. Whoever built it obviously wanted it to be a force to be reckoned with.
* UnwittingPawn: The reason he attacks Earth is because he was attending the Justice League's trial and the guy sitting next to him mused over how problematic it'd be if the Reach took over a planet full of meta-humans. As Mongul storms out of the courtroom, we see that he was talking to Vandal Savage.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He wants to curtail the Reach's conquest of Earth as much as the Justice League, [[EarthShatteringKaboom but he has different ideas about how to do that.]] However, see NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist above.

A victim of the Reach experiments.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: In the comics, he's a sadistic PsychoForHire, in the cartoon he's just an unlucky guy forced into a horrible process.
* AffectionateNickname: The Runaways call him "Neut".
* AntiVillain: Not a villain at all, really; just a failed experiment by the Reach that they let loose on Central City.
* TheAtoner: His powers soon went out of control, and he murdered Flash. An older Nathaniel confides in Impulse to get to the past and stop him from killing Flash and prevent the Reach from destroying everything, giving Impulse a pill to cure him.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: The mind control is in his suit.
* BaldOfEvil: In reality, not all that evil.
* CompositeCharacter: His nature as an AntiVillain who can't control his powers likely comes from the Flash "villain" Fallout.
* CreepyMonotone: When in the suit.
* DePower: Impulse uses a blue pill to cure him. He still ends up at Star Labs for testing, though.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Even after Impulse changes the past, Mount Justice is still in ruins.
* MyGreatestFailure: It's implied that he killed Barry Allen/Flash, and stated that he helped lay ruin to the Earth with the Reach. However, when Impulse fixes the mistake, Mount Justice is still in ruins. The ash is no longer falling from the sky, however.
* ScarsAreForever: His final appearance in the future has him sporting a large scar on his face. Subverted when Impulse changes the past, and the scar fades.
* WaveMotionGun: Literally, he sends his power up in waves, and the energy builds up eventually if he doesn't release it.

* AIIsACrapshoot:
** Red Volcano, designed not to care about humanity, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard predictably turns on his creator]].
** {{Inverted|Trope}} with the others, who were designed to infiltrate and betray the Justice Society but never did.
* AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs: Red Torpedo and Inferno start their intro episode taking over the cave and holding the Super-powered members of the Team hostage.
* BigLittleBrother: Volcano is much more muscular and taller than Torpedo, Inferno and Tornado. He also acts like he is their senior.
* CallAHumanAMeatbag: Red Volcano goes from "humans" to "meatbags" in order to include non-human members of the Team.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Red Torpedo and Firebrand, tied to their PinocchioSyndrome. It brings about [[RedemptionEqualsDeath their downfall.]]
%%* ColorCharacter
* CompositeCharacter:
** Red Inferno is a combination of the Silver Age Firebrand and the android Red Inferno.
** Red Torpedo is an amalgamation of the Golden Age Red Torpedo and the Modern one that is an android.
* CurbStompBattle: Delivered to the team.
* DemotedToDragon: In the first season, Red Volcano tries to wipe out most of human life. In the second, he tries to steal parts of AMAZO (which could help him in that goal), but is apparently working for Lex Luthor. It's not clear if he's deliberately working for Luthor, reprogrammed, or was just tricked by him.
* DishingOutDirt: Red Volcano.
* DistaffCounterpart: Red Inferno to everyone else.
* ElementalPowers: They, along with Red Tornado, each control one of the four classical elements.
* EvilCounterpart: To Red Tornado. Volcano is, anyway. It's a bit more complicated for Torpedo and Inferno.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Volcano.
* FallenHero: Not their decision, but Torpedo and Inferno.
* {{Fembot}}: Red Inferno.
* GenderFlip: Red Inferno and Red Torpedo; in the comics, Inferno is male, while Torpedo is female.
* GoneHorriblyRight: Morrow seems to have problems with this.
** Red Torpedo was made to infiltrate and betray the Justice Society. The innate antisocial tendencies made him too much of a loner to pull it off.
** Red Inferno's personality was made more "heroic" so that she'd feel motivated to stick with the Society. She wound up [[BecomingTheMask taking a bullet for one of her teammates]].
** Red Tornado, by-the-by, was created with a human personality, but was the first of the bunch to ''know'' he wasn't human. Naturally, this led to PinocchioSyndrome.
** Red Volcano was designed to not care for humanity, ''including'' [[HoistByHisOwnPetard his father]].
* HeroKiller: "Killer" would be an exaggeration but the only reason Red Volcano fails in his plans is because Torpedo and Inferno decide to turn on him for the sake of humanity.
* HeroicSacrifice: Firebrand for the original Flash. Torpedo and Inferno again, to keep Volcano from destroying humanity.
* IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten: Volcano orders Tornado to kill the Team in order to prove himself a "loyal Red". Tornado tries to fake it in order to stay in the loop on Volcano's plans, but Volcano sees right through it.
%%* ImplacableMan
* KillerRobot: An entire trio of them.
* LegacyCharacter: Red Inferno was the second Firebrand, according to WordOfGod.

* PlayingWithFire: Red Inferno
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: For Torpedo and Inferno.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
* RoboticPsychopath: Red Volcano was built to be this.
* SmugSuper: Unlike his siblings, Red Volcano ''breathes'' this trope.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: They have Red Inferno, an android programmed to believe she was a human female.
* SoLastSeason: Red Volcano was more than a match for the entire team in the first season, and they couldn't even stop him without help. In the second season, Blue Beetle beats him solo.
* TakingTheBullet: Firebrand does it for the Flash.
* ThemeNaming: The Reds are named after their elemental powers.
* TronLines: Red Volcano has red ones.
* UnexplainedRecovery: We never learn how Red Volcano survived his defeat in the first season. Nightwing doesn't even sound surprised that he's back.

%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Starro

A species of alien parasite and galactic conqueror that has tried to invade Earth a few times.
----
* AlienBlood: Bright green, although the smaller Starros don't seem to bleed at all.
* AnArmAndALeg: The Starro in "Evolution" has three of its arms sliced off by Savage (although it's heavily implied that if given the chance it could regenerate them... or even regenerate ''from'' them).
* AnimalisticAbomination: A cosmic monster of unknown origin capable of producing mind-controlling smaller versions of itself, enduring millenia while frozen alive, and regenerating its entire self from small pieces, all while resembling nothing so much as an Earth starfish.
* AncientAstronauts: Tried to conquer the Earth in Babylonian times, but was thwarted by Vandal Savage (at the time known as the deity Marduk).
* EarlyBirdCameo: Sort of, its frozen remains are a reoccurring plot {{Macguffin}} in the first season, but it wouldn't be until the third season that we actually see a living Starro.
* EvilVersusEvil: Was twice prevented from conquering the Earth by Vandal Savage (the second time with help by Darkseid's forces), if only because Savage himself wants to be the one to conquer it.
* EyeScream: Vandal Savage defeats Starro in "Evolution" by punching out its eye.
* FromASingleCell: Even a small piece of Starro tissue is able to regenerate, which suggests it can fully regrow itself as long as a little bit of it is left alone. Vandal Savage keeps the pieces of Starro in stasis aboard the [=WarWorld=] to prevent this from happening.
* HumanPopsicle: The Starro defeated by Marduk (read: Vandal Savage) and dumped into the ocean was NotQuiteDead and survived dormant for millennia entombed in ice.
* MainliningTheMonster: (Part of) The Light's plan in Season 1 is to steal Starro samples and chip off bits, modified with Ivo's nanotech and Klarion's magic, to make their own mind-control chips.
* MookMaker: Starro can produce smaller versions of itself to mind-control its victims or simply attack on its behalf.
* PuppeteerParasite: Attaches itself to the face of its victims, with a central Starro able to psychically control the smaller Starros. Unlike previous incarnations, it's implied the process is fatal once it takes effect.
* SmallRoleBigImpact:
** Vandal Savage and his daughter Ishtar's victory over Starro's invasion of ancient Babylon is what resulted in the birth of the Light.
** Starro was also the one who killed Nabu's (AKA Doctor Fate) mortal body in the same invasion.
* StarfishAliens: Literally in this case.
* ZergRush: In "Evolution", Starro attempts to invade the Earth despite Vandal possessing the [=WarWorld=] by attacking with a truly immense armada of starships from both sides of the solar system, knowing Savage can't be in both places at once. If Olympia's tablet graphic was accurate, each fleet roughly spanned the width of the solar system.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_mcommmorzz.png]]

!!!'''Species:''' White Martian
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BenDiskin

The younger brother of M'gann, an unfettered revolutionary trying to improve the lives of his White Martian brethren through any means possible.

* AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed. In the comics, Ma'alefa'ak is a sadistic, genocidal monster who committed his crimes out of spite and cruelty. Here, he's a KnightTemplar revolutionary.
* AgeLift: In the comics, Ma'alefa'ak was the twin brother of J'onn, and therefore shared the same age. Here he is younger than M'gann.
* AppropriatedAppellation: Since Ma'alefa'ak is the name of a terrifying monster on Mars, M'comm took the name as his own to inspire fear in the oppressive green and red martians.
* BoomerangBigot: Ma'alefa'ak hates Green Martians with a passion, but since his mother was one, he himself has Green ancestry, a point he notably omits in his debate with M'gann.
* CainAndAbel: The Cain to M'Gann's Abel.
* DecompositeCharacter: The Ma'alefa'ak is a feared rabid beast on Mars, M'comm used this as his villain name to strike fear into Green Martians.
* EvilIsPetty: After being defeated, he [[spoiler:utters a kill-phrase to murder his enslaved metahumans]] just to spite his sister for beating him.
* FantasticRacism: He really hates the Green Martians, due to all the discrimination he suffered from them for being White. He also quickly forms a negative opinion of the New Gods, equating them with the Green Martians and the Bugs with the White Martians.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Both he and M'gann were subjected to harsh, racist treatment at the hands of the Green and Red Martians since they were children. However, M'gann makes it clear it's no excuse for his current actions, and that he's become just as bad as his oppressors in trying to start a war on New Genesis to get support for his own cause.
* {{Foil}}: To M'gann, both having had turned to extremist positions and an "Ends justify the means" mentality. But while M'gann had grown out of her ruthless tendencies by the end of Season 2 and reformed herself, M'comm still openly embraces less than scrupulous actions to forward his goals. And as ruthless as M'gann was in Season 2, she never stooped to [[spoiler: killing or using innocents]] as M'comm has. This comes forth in their argument where M'gann tries to appeal to M'comm's compassion and empathy.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: He and his fellow White Martians were subjected to racist oppression by the Green and Red Martians. In order to combat them, M'comm has become an even bigger monster, equally hateful to his enemies.
* ISurrenderSuckers: When M'gann offers to turn M'comm away from the violent path he's on, M'comm seems to agree and asks her to teach him how. Unfortunately, he's lying through his teeth and tries to attack her while her guard is down. Luckily, M'gann was prepared for that.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's tremendously snide, self-righteous, unnecessarily cruel, and shows no regard for innocent life. Piling on to the jerkassery, most of these traits are demonstrated towards his own sister, [[UngratefulBastard who cares about him and protected him when they were children]].
* KnightTemplar: Ma'alefa'ak believes his goal of inciting a White Martian revolution is righteous, no matter the morally abhorrent actions he commits in order to accomplish it.
* MalcolmXerox: He's a violently anti-"discrimination" KnightTemplar who ferments violent revolution, [[MeaningfulName whose true Martian name is basically Malcolm]].
* NeverMyFault: He brushes off any condemnation of his actions by [[PlayingTheVictimCard referring back to the discrimination that White Martians have suffered]], and once his plans are thwarted, he blames Forager for [[spoiler:the deaths of his captive metahumans]], claiming that it's his fault for bringing the Team to New Genesis and promising to kill Forager if he sees him again.
* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist:
** For all his claims to the contrary, it's quite clear that Ma'alefa'ak's planned revolution against the Green and Red Martians is based more on his own hatred for them than any desire for positive social change. He considers the oppressed becoming the oppressors to be a successful revolution, not seeing his goal for [[FullCircleRevolution what it really is]].
** Ma'alefa'ak brushes off M'gann's condemnations about his warmongering on New Genesis by claiming that he's doing the Bugs a favor by pitting them against the New Gods, framing the whole thing as inciting a noble revolution. The reality is that Ma'alefa'ak is just doing this as a favor to a third party (possibly Darkseid) to gather support for his own revolution on Mars, and he doesn't actually care in the least about the Bugs.
* PsychologicalProjection: He equates the relationship between the New Gods and the Bugs with the one among the different races of Martian; in Ma'alefa'ak's mind, the New Gods oppress the bugs by placing themselves above them. In reality, what little we see suggests that the two races got along fine before Ma'alefa'ak deliberately started pitting the Bugs against the New Gods, and his own issues are coloring how he sees the situation.
* RedemptionRejection: When M'gann offers him the chance to be a better person, he pretends to go along with it only so he can attack her when her guard is down.
* RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: In the source material, he's J'onn's brother. Here, he is J'onn's nephew (through [[CanonForeigner J'onn's sister]]).
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: To M'gann, who is J'onn's niece in the show. Here Ma'alefa'ak is her younger brother.
* ShadowArchetype: He shares a lot of M'gann's insecurities about being racially discriminated and abuses his powers the way she did. Unlike M'gann however, he lets these insecurities consume him and he continues to abuse his powers.
* UngratefulBastard: As soon as M'gann rejects his offer to join Ma'alefa'ak's revolution, he disregards her kindness and mercy in favor of attacking her and going out of his way to spite her for trying to stop him.
* UsedToBeASweetKid: M'gann tries to appeal to his better nature by using memories of their childhood, where they were wide-eyed and innocent, to get him to turn away from his evil path. Unfortunately, all M'comm can remember is the bad.
* WeCanRuleTogether: He tries to get M'gann to join his revolution, but she refuses to stoop to the lows he's willing to go to.
* WouldHurtAChild: Murders his two metahuman slaves that his sister was trying to rescue as a last act of spite. The slaves in question were teenagers.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: He has this power like all other Martians. He disguises himself as Orion and acts like a bigoted asshole, as part of a plan to fool and manipulate the Bugs into rebelling against the New Gods on New Genesis.

* AdaptationalHeroism: This version of Livewire was mind-controlled into being a supervillain and she immediately changed sides after being freed. Her comics and DCAU counterparts were villains by choice.

* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In the source material, he's J'onn's brother. Here, he is J'onn's nephew (through [[CanonForeigner J'onn's sister]]) and M'gann's brother.

* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: The only villain in season two who isn't connected to the Light or the Reach at all and has his own motivations for coming to Earth, though the Reach Ambassador does take advantage of the situation to smear the Justice League.

* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: To some level. He's pretty much the only villain in the entire show who does not work for, is associated with someone who works for, or was an unknowing pawn of the Light and whose actions did not affect the Light's goals in any way whatsoever.

* AffablyEvil: After being released by Cheshire, he gratefully bows to her before dropping intoa shadow.

* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: He barks out a few incredulous words in Interlac in his debut that go untranslated in response to being attacked, first by a [[PunyEarthlings soldier trying to shoot him]], then by Supergirl. The general tone implies that it means "Really?"

* BlackEyesOfCrazy: Not Shade himself, but his mask has this feature, with small, red irises surrounded by pure black.
* CastingAShadow: He can manipulate shadows.

* CurbStompBattle: He delivers an absolutely brutal one to the team, shrugging off their blows and delivering back hits twice as hard.
