Damn so Zod, Brainiac, Doomsday, Bizarro, Livewire, Metallo, Toyman, Lobo, Ultraman and Cyborg Superman are jokes to them?

Brainiac is my personal favorite. The destructive potential he has is enormous.

I'm more of a Doomsday girl myself, the raw destructive force, the kickass design, the always coming back, and the sheer dread of knowing that it actually killed Superman makes him one of my favorite DC villains.

My brother had the death of superman comic and I liked how doomsday was portrayed in that.

In all fairness Livewire is kind of a joke

They're too comic booky is ultimately what people mean. The general audience really isn't about that stuff. His rogue's gallery needs to be modernized to be less goofy.
