I think I'll abstain for now. Gaia is a pretty nasty villain to be sure. She mercilessly slaughtered both her own friends and numerous innocents, destroyed all of New York just to screw with Superman, and eradicated most of the human race while sadistically taking power over the world for herself. That's all pretty bad by most standards, and would make her an easy yes...

...but here's the thing. The Dark Multiverse is full of villains like her. It is literally designed with the idea that every Earth is twisted and wrong in some way and will inevitably be destroyed as such, most of the time by villains or heroes who go too far. Now, that's not to say what she did wasn't especially brutal, but just look at what Blue Beetle, or Eradicator, or any of the Dark Knights did to their own Earths. Simply put, villains like Gaia who kill mercilessly and doom their own worlds are commonplace in the Dark Multiverse, which makes it hard to say that she's truly among the worst of the worst--considering that almost every major villain of the DM is incredibly terrible as well.
