Comic Book Villains

Villains that appear in comic books and graphic novels.

Though comic book is term that was once used to refer only to comedic stories in a book-like format (hence the "comic" part), various writers expanded the genres in the medium to house more than just funny stories, as well as lengthier stories beyond the limitations of being newspaper strips. A good percentage of comic book villains are supervillains from superhero stories (such as Marvel, DC, Image, Dark Horse, etc) but most comic book stories are unrelated to the superhero genre and present a large and diverse variety of villains. Manga and Webcomics stem from this medium, though are still part of it since they are still comics, and villains from them should be placed in their own respective categories rather than this one.
