full on instead i'm will for what culture and here are the 10 most evil versions of superman 10. bizarro superboy 68 and action comics 254 not only was bizarro the first evil version of superman he popularized the trope of a hero having a wicked doppelganger in superboy 68 a teenage clark kent got shot with a duplicatory ray which created a double of him called bizarro this creature perished at the hands of the issue but fans were won over by the character which encouraged dc's creators to bring bizarro back one year later his backstory has been retconned many times over the years but bizarro is usually a clone of superman created by lex luthor because the cloning process was flawed the disfigured ursats has impaired intelligence and the inverted powers of superman he also speaks in opposites so he'll yell goodbye as a greeting and i love you when pummeling his enemies to death 9. evil superman superman 3 superman 3 is not remembered in the best light but to the movie's

refuses to save civilians in danger gets drunk and flicks peanuts in a bar losing his grip on reality he flies to a junkyard where he splits into two personas the evil superman and the pure clark kent even though the malevolent doppelganger has clark beaten incinerated and squished the true superman withstands all his attacks and emerges victorious superman 3 may be absurd but the superman v superman brawl is definitely a highlight 8. brutal earth 2 14-26 on an alternate world called earth 2 darkseid created a duplicate of his kryptonian rival and conditioned him into the soldier brutale tasked with slaying earth 2's mightiest warriors brutale and stefan wolfe laid waste to humanity preparing to terraform it into new apocalypse to stop the world from being burned to ashes the superman of earth 2 valzod faced brutale in an epic showdown since brutal was brainwashed to believe he was the one true superman he saw val as a pretender and assured him that his victory was inevitable but

man spent the next 60 years transforming the world into a paradise however a superhero powered by patriotism of the americans called uncle sam refused to bend the knee to overman since his global utopia was built on lies and bloodshed in the end one of uncle sam's teammates managed to work his way onto the justice league's lunar base and blew it up causing it to crash to earth and destroy metropolis however it's theorized in the final pages that overman voluntarily allowed the satellite to destroy the city to punish himself for playing a part in the nazi regime 6. superman of apocalypse superman darkseid as we all know jorel placed kal-el in a pod before krypton exploded and sent it in the direction of earth but in the elseworld three-parter superman dark side the ship was

detonate it on high father's world new genesis before the explosive detonated highfather pointed out to superman that he had been brainwashed by the forces of apocalypse since birth he then teleported

him at least for the time being 4. cyborg superman reign of the superman after superman was beaten to death by doomsday a cyborg called the man of tomorrow appeared in metropolis insisting he was

multiverse is the inverted side of the multiverse populated by twisted versions of dc's most beloved superheroes in one of these realities there exists a superman who at first seems relatively the same as the superhero of prime earth one day this incarnation of superman snapped killing millions including his own family friends superheroes and teammates naturally batman believed he could revert his ally and friends to normal if he reminded him of who he once was but when the deranged kryptonian killed his wife and cut batman's arm off that's when the dark knight realized he had to take his former friend down left with no choice the caped crusader injected himself with doomsday cells transforming himself into a beast called the devastator after pummeling superman to a pulp the devastator poisoned him with kryptonites and impaled him with his spikes finally putting an end to superman's tyranny two ultraman forever evil earth 3 is a universe where the concept of good and evil does not
