For my money, it's gotta be the Shocker; he's got a sick design and his powers are really cool to watch play out when done right. I also enjoy his scruffy everyman personality.

I really REALLY hope Spencer continues this plot point in Amazing Spider-Man now that Kingpin has rallied the crime bosses of New York. This would also follow his pattern considering Beetle, Boomerang, and Overdrive have all appeared thus far in his run. Only two left are Shocker and Speed Demon

Well I don't know if it's literally a cushion or some space age fabric but it fits his theme and makes sense. Since Shocker is dishing out focused earthquakes with his hands, it makes sense that his costume would be designed to absorb those vibrations

He BTFO Punisher and saved the mob, which caused Silvermane to dub him the new Don. It's worth noting that Shocker is one of the only people to make it out of Superior Foes on top besides Speed Demon, who got a bunch of money after suing Iron Fist for an ankle injury.

When he takes Silvermane's head to his apartment, the couch is literally made of the same material as his suit. It's a callback to a joke from earlier in the series.

since you posted my fav from Marvel OP i go to with my man from DC

I just love the idea of a half-drunk, chauvinistic Ozzie with no superpowers, but he's the best in the world at something, and he's much good at it that he can go toe to toe with the goddamn flash
The fact that this something is throwing boomerangs is both hilarious and awesome

I know he cant really be considered minor since he's in a TV show and will be in his second movie soon, but goddamn I love Boomer

Fred claimed that's what happened. I love Herman, but I interpret it as being more than a little exaggerated. Mostly due to lack of follow up.

It would be a pretty funny twist if Fred wasn't actually bullshitting about the general gist of Shocker beating the Punisher and becoming part of the mob, but just exaggerated it with the Shockermobile popping back up and shit -and then the actual version turned out to just be him beating the fuck out of Frank with his bare gauntlets and everyone watching, which is arguably better.

Either way, I think Herman will most likely end up as Silvermane's underboss.

I enjoy Skein because her general motive is basically "I'm a hedonist and just do what makes me feel good". Doesn't really give a fuck about societal norms or "laws". Her introductory story had her running a sex cult. She "reformed" and joined the Thunderbolts solely because she wanted to fuck Songbird and left when she realized it wasn't going to happen. I kind of wish she'd get more use but I figure it's kind of hard to find larger stories for a character like that.

Technically she's a low level telekinetic but because she can mentally "feel" the things she manipulates she prefers sticking to soft things but can manipulate shit like muscles, skin, blood vessels and such.

Given her hedonism she could probably mentally jack you off and give you the best orgasm you've ever had.

For marvel my favorite is the shocker too for DC it would have to be the ventriloquist.
Its just something about an milquetoast old man and his split personality, armed with nothing but insanity and a dummy sized tommy gun somehow becoming a semi-successful mob boss.

Probably Hugo Strange. But i think it is somewhat debatable if he counts as a minor villain. After all he appeared in three separate TV Shows and was the major antagonist in Arkham City.

Otherwise there is a small list of more obscure villains i really like: Doctor Phosphorus, Professor Pyg, Ratcatcher, Maxie Zeus, Humpty Dumpty, Terrible Trio, Electrocutioner, Solomon Grundy, Anarky & Roxy Rocket

Ghost is a favorite of mine for being a paranoid hackerman that combats megacorporations and their conspiracies. He is like the worst basement dweller (disgustingly smelly, over-intellectual), but has a heart of gold and gets out to the world to beat the evil.

Ventriloquist is the only villain introduced in Batman in the last decades who genuinely feels timeless.
Like he could have easily been introduced in the Golden Age or the Adam West show and no one would argue he doesn't fit, and could have become as iconic as the likes of Catwoman and Penguin if he'd been around longer and had bigger roles.
He's a Batman as fuck idea that could only exist in Batman stories.
