10 Marvel Villains That Deserve The Joker Film Treatment

10. Mad Jim Jaspers

Mad Jim Jaspers was once a British politician built on an anti-superhero platform, even though he has his own reality-warping powers. His ability to alter reality, coupled with the android he created to destroy the heroes, are too similar to the House of M storyline and mutant-hunting Sentinels.

Instead, a more grounded tale could be told with Jaspers gathering followers in a destructive sect. The concept of superheroes can be used perfectly without actually featuring superheroes.

One of his "miracles" could be the divine gift to see the "demons" who must be removed to protect society, not unlike the movie Frailty. A convincing leader who can perform "miracles", a film blending Fight Club's underground society with Helter Skelter vibes could be a cult classic.
