10 Badass Villains Spider-Man Should Fight In The MCU

10. Mysterio

The fishbowl-headed special effects maestro was one of Spider-Man's most persistent villains in the character's early days. The character tried a bit of everything, from museum heists and bank jobs to menacing Aunt May, all the while being faintly unhinged as befits a man who wears a glass globe on his head.

His inherent goofiness and the death of the original Mysterio in Kevin Smith's run on Daredevil means he has lost relevance in recent years, but the character still has huge potential since he uses illusions and trickery, rather than brawn, to enable his wicked plots.

Mysterio also has fascinating potential to comment on the film industry itself. As a one-time Hollywood effects man, he could rail against the CGI-packed blockbusters of today while lamented the practical effects of his era, all while participating in exactly the kind of blockbuster he hates.

With Mysterio as the villain, the Marvel Cinematic Universe could get even more meta.
