* ''[[TroperWorks/UltimateSpiderWoman Ultimate Spider-Woman: Change With the Light]]'' features Jack O' Lantern, who starts out with bank robberies before graduating to hostage-takings, gassings, MindRape, and finally orchestrating a city-wide gang war. He implies that the reason he commits these increasingly ghastly crimes is, quite simply, because he knows it's wrong. Jack O' Lantern also brags about being so superior to people who in his mind hide their impulses behind their civilized facades, and develops an almost insane hatred for Spider-Woman in part for defending those people and in part for interfering with his fun.

* Skeletor in the original ''He-Man and the Masters of the Universe'' certainly qualifies. His motive was simply that he enjoyed being evil. He waxed rhapsodic about how much he loved evil. He found joy in any act of nastiness, no matter how petty or arbitrary, and was repulsed by anything good or nice. (Of course, being an '80s cartoon character, he never did anything ''really'' evil like, say, trying to kill anyone. But given how much fulfillment he found in even the smallest acts of evil, maybe he didn't feel the need to.)

*There's two quotes from ''{{Dangaioh}}'' both uttered by the same character Gil Berg, who spent his first few appearances getting kicked around by the heroes. He has one of the (teenage female) pilots trapped, and is torturing her. He says "You might think I'm doing this for information, or revenge, but the truth is I just like torturing little girls. I know it's sick, but everyone needs a hobby." Later, after handing the heroes their asses and destroying their mentor, the camera zooms in on his face and he says "Do you know anyone who has as much fun as I do?"

to:

* When The Hobgoblin was asked why he framed Flash Thomason Thompson for his crimes, he answered "Why not?"not?"
** That being said, there was a reason the Hobgoblin decided to frame ''him''. At the time of Tom DeFalco's story where The Hobgoblin frames Flash, Ned Leeds (whom DeFalco intended to reveal as the Hobgoblin) had discovered Flash had been sleeping with his wife. He was understandably pissed. Years later, Roger Stern wrote a retcon in which the ''true'' Hobgoblin was actually Roderick Kingsley (his original choice when he created the Hobgoblin) and Leeds was just a patsy. Kingsley also had a reason to single out Flash, however; Flash had been on tv calling the Hobgoblin a "creep and a coward", among other things.

The first is the target of their bullying just because she's pretty and rich; the second is betrayed by them twice as they first videotape her having sex with Makoto and then they have sex with him; the third has her reputation ''absolutely smeared'' at school when they not only tape her having sex with her boyfriend, but they show the video to ''the whole school'', especially to the JerkAss sempais.. And they do all of this shit '''for no reason at all'''.
