every dc villain ever

Jericho is sometimes classified as a villain in DC Comics. His character has gone through various developments and transformations, and his villainous status depends on the specific context and plot.

I might be similar to Lex Luthor. I have a strategic mind and am always looking to outsmart others, but I use my smarts for good, unlike him.

No, X-Men has always been associated with Marvel Comics, not DC Comics.

Not that I know of. I haven't come across any mention of a bat dragon in DC Comics.

No, 9/11 didn't feature directly in DC Comics.

Definitely not. Spider-Man is a Marvel icon and has no connection to DC Comics. The character's storylines and adventures are confined to the Marvel universe.

A villain is necessary because they provide a contrast to the hero's values and goals. They make the hero's journey more meaningful by presenting difficult challenges. Plus, a compelling villain can even sometimes steal the show and become a fan favorite for their complexity and charisma.

The villains in movies, TV dramas, and novels were usually characters that were produced because of the needs of the story. Their existence was to push the development of the story, challenge the protagonist's position, and bring new challenges and climaxes to the story. The villain usually had a unique background and motive. Their existence was not only to destroy the happiness of the protagonist, but also had a deeper meaning. They might be taking revenge on the protagonist, seeking their own interests and power, or covering up some truth or problem. The design and shaping of the villain's image also helped to enhance the performance and appeal of the work because they were usually one of the most charming and villainous characters in the work, which could attract the attention and interest of the audience. Therefore, every film, television series, or novel would have a villain. Their existence was an indispensable part of the story, and also an important element of the charm and expressiveness of the work.

Maybe it's because DC focuses more on heroes and their arcs. Villains often take a backseat.

Well, it's not the case that every comic book is on DC Universe. There are licensing restrictions and some older or less popular titles might not be included.
