Question

I was thinking about the Superman movie rumors. I think they've confirmed Zod as the villain, which makes me happier than yet another Lex Luthor story. Don't get me wrong, I do love Lex Luthor, but it seems like he's always the villain.

But then again, Zod's been done too. One of the things I really like about the Batman movies is that they don't tend to use the same villains over and over. I mean, granted, we've seen the Joker twice, and Two-Face, but we've also seen Ra's al Ghul, Catwoman, the Penguin, the Riddler, Scarecrow, Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy.

Granted, not all of these appearances were GOOD, but we did see them. It never seems like we get as much variety with Superman villains though. (Though I admit, I could be wrong about that. My memory of the Superman movies are older. And I don't think I saw the last one, pre Superman Returns.)

I'm shakier with Superman's rogue gallery though, for all that I prefer Superman to Batman as a character. So I'm not really sure what villains I'd like to see in place of Zod or Lex once in a while. Brainiac, I think. Maybe Doomsday. I dunno.

Who would you like to see? Do you have a favorite Superman villain that's been neglected?
