I know who she is but I also question the "crush" part for the same reason; yeah yeah I know This Image Is Not an Example but it's not clear whether her flirtation is genuine or manipulative.
I like Batman's dejected "Ugh, this again?" reaction in the current, but you're right, she doesn't look especially villainous from that one image. There's also overlap with Villainesses Want Heroes.
Doctor Doom and Storm?
Professional Wick Checker
IDK, there's a lot going on in the image, plus how would someone unfamiliar with the comics tell that Storm isn't also a villain? Not rlly feeling it.
Not clear to me that Storm isn't as equally defeated as the other X-Men, or that Doctor Doom has an actual crush on her as opposed to just wanting to use her for whatever purposes he wants.

Gotham Central (the image actually has a white background — it's the cover to issue 10 — but can be made transparent if wished so)

Looks fine as-is, a transparent background would look tacky in this case.

Looks more like I Have You Now, My Pretty.
Just found this one:
ETA: Which, admittedly, also overlaps with Villainesses Want Heroes.

You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"
Actually, I think it would be an improvement over the current on Villainesses Want Heroes.
Hi
That one was chosen here
, but I agree that is better.

Yep, is better than current image of Villainesses Want Heroes. More clear.

Am I a weirdo?
My one concern with 8 for Villainesses Want Heroes is the lack of anything other than character recognition marking Catwoman as villainous. Maybe I'm missing something but it looks like Fan Myopia to me.
Bigotry will NEVER be welcome on TV Tropes.

I feel (x5) should replace the current on Villainesses Want Heroes (which is a Sub-Trope of Villainous Crush). As for the image on VillainousCrush.Comic Books, it'd keep the current until a better image is suggested.
I agree.
Crowner's hooked.
Hi
Votes bump; three in the green right now.

Calling for "no pic for now". It's pulled and the page is tagged; locking up.

Crown Description:
VillainousCrush.Comic Books
The current image for VillainousCrush.Comic Books fails to cover the "villainous" part of the trope; Poison Ivy isn't doing anything that marks her as evil, as opposed to simply a Femme Fatale.
