49. Anti-Monitor

image of Anti-Monitor

Villains come in all shapes and sizes, Anti-Monitor comes in one: Epic. Before playing a key role in the threat posed by Sinestro's Corps, his unique brand of evil made a permanent mark on the DCU during the Crisis on Infinite Earths, a storyline considered to be a classic. Here, Anti-Monitor became the Multiverse's most significant threat, earning a permanent spot on the Green Lantern Corps' Most Wanted list.

The science of Anti-Monitor's villainy makes even die-hard comics fans go cross-eyed - weaponized antimatter waves, absorbing the energies of positive matter universes - but the consequences of his actions leave us understandably in awe of his effect on the brave heroes who set out to stop him. Some of which, like Barry Allen Flash and Supergirl, gave their lives to save this world from his menace.

Unfortunately, Anti-Monitor has only appeared in two major story lines. But when he does show up, it is an Event. He changes things, forever. Which may explain why, unfortunately (or fortunately), he is used so sparingly.
