he definitely counts due to the events of The Man Who Has Everything (I believe) - he damaged Superman more than ANY other enemy had or has done since.. to the point his well-deserved beating by Superman is one of the few times you actually feel very satisfied with Superman winning.

Superman is often a character audiences have trouble siding with but Mongul was the absolute BEST way to solve that problem as I really feel anyone who has trouble with Superman should either read Mongul's story or watch the animated Justice League version of it (same story) and I assure you that you will go out of it thinking "..yes Superman is a boyscout but guys like Mongul make it perfectly okay for him to be that way..".
