As Lady Gaga once put it, I dont believe in the glorification of murder.
Idobelieve in the empowerment of women.
Villainy often feels like a male-dominated industry, so much so that we have a shorthand for it.
Plus, theres the universally understood bad guy, whereas bad girl is something else entirely.
Idobelieve in the empowerment of women.
Thats a good motive!
Proxima Midnight
Theres nothing scarier than an extremely competent villain especially when shes Thanos right-hand woman.
In the Marvel Comics, shes a triple agent with ties to S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra, and Leviathan.
Though,some theories suggestshe could be setting up MCUs version of the Thunderbolts.
After all, who wouldntwant to have a stern conversation with their troublemaking alter ego?

Nebula
The relationship between sisters (even the best ones!)
can be fraught, but Nebula and Gamora take it to another level.
Nebulas a skilled, terrifying fighter until she breaks free from Thanos influence and fights for the good side.
In fact, in the comics, its Nebula who reverses her Mad Titan dads infamous snap.
Of course,as Emily VanCamp told Bustle,Sharon may not be atotalvillain just yet.
Did she need to take it this far?
Shes one who unwittingly makes their hero foe realize just how capable they really are, like Supreme Intelligence.
But several recent MCU big bads have deconstructed (and humanized) their comic counterparts in a major way.
Take, for example,Black Widows Taskmaster.
And, of course, when it comes to fighting style, the Taskmaster is a major threat.
to serve as an assassin.
The skull-faced villain is hardcore and one ofMarvels most powerful characters.
Hela
There is simply no MCU female villain cooler (or scarier) than Hela.
Thor and Lokis older sister is the Goddess of Death, a role she takes extremely seriously.
If only shed use her powers for good… but then again, that wouldnt be half as fun.
