We typically root for the heroes in all of our favorite television shows and films, but every now and then, we find ourselves low-key crushing on the villain. There's just something really attractive about a bad boy who'll stop at nothing to get what he wants—especially if he's being portrayed by Tom Hiddleston!
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is filled with so many ridiculously good-looking protagonists, it almost seems like the Avengers only recruit supermodels at this point. Some of the greatest adversaries of Earth's Mightiest Heroes aren't so hard on the eyes either, though! Even when we don't include Loki (who is like, the dreamiest on-again-off-again bad guy to ever see the big screen), there have been enough attractive villains over the past decade of Marvel films to fill up a calendar. Erik Killmonger's abs could totally grate cheese, the Winter Soldier was practically as handsome as Captain America and even though Thanos looked a bit like a purple Homer Simpson, we couldn't stop staring at his massive biceps during Avengers: Infinity War.
Okay, that's it... it's time to finally stop feeling guilty about our secret crushes on some of Marvel's most iconic antagonists. Take this quiz and receive a supervillain soulmate!
Pick a color
Sometimes all we have to do to get a feel for someone's personality is take a look at their wardrobe. If they have nothing but bright, lightly-colored clothes in their closet, they're probably pretty happy and optimistic. If they solely wear dark clothes, however, they're either moody or trying to get through life unseen. Wear one of these fairly villainous colors.
Choose a MCU villain to partner up with
Members of the Avengers teamed up in 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' and 'Thor: Ragnarok,' so isn't it about time villains start working together too? There's strength in numbers, so go ahead and choose one of these Marvel Cinematic Universe baddies to partner up with.
It's detention time, what happened?
Even the best students can find themselves getting in hot water with their teachers and principals and landing in detention. High school can be incredibly stressful, and all that built-up anxiety can cause some teenagers to act out or break a few rules. It's detention time, what happened?
Make a wish
Even though we don't really believe in genies or birthday magic, we still rub every lamp we come across and make a wish whenever we blow out the candles on our birthday cakes just in case doing so can make our wildest dreams come true. Go ahead and make a wish!
Pick a side in the Avengers' Civil War
In Captain America: Civil War, Tony Stark and Steve Rogers had some seriously conflicting thoughts about the Sokovian Accords, and their disagreement split Earth's Mightiest Heroes in half. Team Iron Man sided with the government and agreed that the Avengers should be told how to use their powers for good, while Team Captain America believed that in times of crisis, they should be able to do what they think is right without having to wait for someone to tell them to save the day. Choose a side!
Which group project strategy is preferable?
Some students love when teachers assign a group project in school, because they know they can just get one of their partners to do all the work and still get away with claiming an equal part of the credit. Others despise these projects, because they know they'll end up doing everything themselves. Select a group assignment strategy.
Assemble an evil army?
Most supervillains choose to surround themselves with an army of minions who will do anything they ask at the drop of a hat. Red Skull would basically just be a weird and fairly powerless skeleton dude without his HYDRA soldiers backing him up! Other villains, like Whiplash, just want to do everything themselves. Build an army or conquer the world solo?
Keep the wallet or find its owner?
Finding a couple dollars on the ground while walking down the street can totally make a person's day... if they don't feel morally obligated to find out whose money it is and return it to them! There's a wallet on the ground and a driver's license inside. Looking around, the street is totally abandoned.
React to an annoyance
Even the most relaxed and pleasant people get bothered by the actions of others every now and then. It's basically impossible to make it through life without getting at least slightly annoyed by an obnoxious co-worker, a messy roommate, a nosy neighbor or a ridiculous family member! Someone is going out of their way to be irritating and rude. Choose a reaction.
Choose a Hogwarts House
It's time to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Unfortunately, before students can step foot on the Quidditch pitch or learn spells in Defense Against the Dark Arts, they have to be sorted into a House based on their personalities and preferences. Slytherins are ambitious, Gryffindors are brave, Hufflepuffs value loyalty and Ravenclaws pride themselves on their intelligence. Choose a House.
Put on the crown and select a kingdom to rule over
Anyone who has ever watched The Princess Diaries or The Sword in the Stone has wondered what it would be like to rule a kingdom. Sure, being in charge would come with a long list of boring responsibilities, but it also comes with some seriously cool perks like a throne, a crown and loyal subjects. Pick a kingdom to rule.
Date a co-worker or keep things professional?
In Avengers: Infinity War, Star-Lord let his relationship with Gamora affect his ability to do his job as a superhero, and that lack of professionalism led to Thanos getting the Infinity Stone he needed to wipe out half of all existence. Is it okay to date a co-worker, or should people try to keep things professional so they can focus on their jobs while at work?
Select a tool to use during a takeover
It's finally time to go full supervillain and take over the world. As we've seen several times in Marvel comics and movies, there are a number of ways to do this. Loki lead an army of Chitauri soldiers in his war against the Avengers. Ultron invaded Sokovia with thousands of robots. Thanos merely snapped his fingers and wiped out half of all existence. Select a weapon to use in a global takeover attempt!
Pick a way to pass the time
Life can be so ridiculously busy that it's almost impossible to keep up a hobby these days. Everyone seems to have a dozen responsibilities to deal with! Luckily, every now and then, we all get a few minutes to ourselves to just relax and enjoy a hobby or two. Select an activity to fill up that occasional free time.
React to some particularly bad traffic
Even though our morning routine is basically the same every single day, we find ourselves showing up for work or school late on a nearly daily basis because we always underestimate how bad traffic can get. A little bit of traffic is understandable, but when the cars on the road don't seem to be moving at ALL, we just want to scream! Respond to some frustrating standstill traffic.
Take the bribe?
Police officers are supposed to uphold the law, but everyone has a price and can be bought if the right amount of money is offered! Some criminals have such deep pockets, they can simply buy their way out of any problems. Take a walk in a police officer's shoes and react to a particularly large bribe.
Change the past or keep things the same?
Hindsight is almost always 20/20, and if we could go back in time, there's a handful of regrettable decisions that we'd love to take back. We might have gone to a different school, applied for different jobs, repaired certain relationships, avoided a few others... there are a lot of things we'd change. Travel back in time and make a decision.
Which of these skills should be valued the highest?
We totally respect and appreciate humility, but we also think that every now and then, people should be allowed to boast about their best qualities and most significant accomplishments! We all have some sort of special skill or trait that makes us exceptional. Which of these special skills would be the most useful?
Which is the most irritating?
We don't consider ourselves "angry person" whatsoever, but we can still own up to the fact that we get frustrated every now and then. It's perfectly understandable—life can be stressful and there are a lot of infuriating people out there. Which of these is the most irritating?
Copy someone else's work or start from scratch?
Several MCU villains simply took the costume or gimmick of their heroic rival and totally ripped it off—Iron Monger simply altered Tony Stark's original suit, Yellowjacket was practically an evil copy of Ant-Man, and Killmonger's Golden Jaguar costume was an obvious Black Panther rip-off! Should villains keep up this trend of stealing from their heroes, or should they try to be more original?
Choose a MCU weapon to conquer the world with
While some villains are able to go into battle with nothing but their wits and their fists, most seek out weapons that will give them an edge over their heroic foes. Iron Monger, the first true MCU villain, stole Tony Starks original suit and tried to use it to take over his company. Thanos set his sights a bit higher than a technologically-advanced suit and opted for an all-powerful Infinity Gauntlet instead. Choose a weapon to conquer the world with!
Wear a mask?
Some villains wear masks so the world won't know their true identity as they commit crime and try to take over the universe. Others are perfectly fine revealing their faces, because they're proud of their wicked deeds. Wear a mask as a supervillain or uncover your face?
Share the last sandwich or focus on self-preservation?
We've all thought about what we'd do if we were stranded on a deserted island. What we'd bring with us, who we'd want by our side, how we'd survive or escape... but there are situations we've never even considered. Two best friends are stranded on a deserted island and all they have to eat for the next few days is one sandwich—if either of them eats the whole sandwich themselves, that person will definitely be able to survive until a rescue boat arrives. If they split the sandwich, however, there's a chance neither of them make it out alive.
Which natural weapon is the most powerful?
We're all blessed with a weapon which we can use to advance in life. Some people were born beautiful, and can use their good looks to manipulate or attract others. Some individuals have a superior intellect and can use their smarts to excel. Others can simply use brute strength and determination to accomplish their goals. Pick a weapon.
How should people react towards confrontation?
When certain individuals witness an injustice, they have no problem confronting the people or things that bother them head-on. Not everyone is that brave, however—plenty of people try to avoid fights and arguments at all costs, and prefer to operate behind closed doors. Someone is trying to pick a fight... select a response!
Where would the ideal supervillain hideout be located?
Every great supervillain needs a base of operations where they can hide away from their heroic adversaries and map out their diabolical plans. It needs to be somewhere private, and it definitely helps if it's a bit haunting so random people won't accidentally walk into it and ruin everything! Find a place to scheme away.
Select a relatable childhood issue
Many of the greatest heroes and worst villains became who they are because of childhood tragedies and struggles. Batman became a hero after his parents were taken from his as a child, but the passing of Killmongers father set him on the path of villainy. Which of these common childhood issues hits close to home?
Serve a more powerful villain or stand against him?
When Thanos threatened Thor's life, Loki surrendered the all-powerful Tesseract over to the Mad Titan and promised to be a loyal servant to him in an attempt to protect his brother. Should he have taken a knee and given Thanos such a powerful weapon, or should Loki have tried to use it against Thanos?
Pick one of the Infinity Stones
When combined together, the Infinity Stones can grant their wielder the power of a god. With a mere snap of his fingers, Thanos was able to use them to wipe out half the life in the universe! Not everyone can manage to collect all the Stones, though—choose just one to take ownership of!
Select a reaction to a bad break-up
Some people are lucky enough to stay with their high school sweetheart for their entire lives, but love just isn't that easy for most of us and we have to go through a few relationships and break-ups before finally finding the right person. React to getting dumped by a special someone.
Team up or take on a hero solo?
When Spider-Man's villains try to take on the friendly neighborhood wall-crawler solo, they always seem to fail. Whenever they join forces and become the Sinister Six, however, they become far more formidable and finally give Spidey a run for his money. Should villains always team up or should they try to fight their heroes all on their own?
Give an evil speech or just get it over with?
Villains can all be split into two categories—there are those who refuse to get anything done until they make a grand speech revealing their evil plans first, and those who just get right to business and try to finish off their heroes before they get away. Which type of villain is the best?
Choose an Avenger to go on a date with
We spend most of our time crushing on our favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe villains, but Earth's Mightiest Heroes are definitely very dreamy as well. Put aside your dark side for a second and choose one of the original Avengers to go on a date with.
Which Disney villain is the coolest?
We're pretty sure our love for powerful villains started all the way back in our childhoods, when we'd spend every day re-watching classic Disney movies and secretly hoping Maleficent and Ursula would finally get a win. There are so many great Disney villains, but which one is your favorite?
Read a comic or watch a superhero movie?
People dig throughout the Internet desperately hoping to find spoilers for Avengers 4, not realizing that all they have to do to find out what happens after Thanos snaps his fingers is pick up a few comic books! What's more fun—reading the source material or watching the MCU films?
