10 Messed Up DC Villains You Won't Believe Exist
2. Despotellis
Despotellis is a member of the Sinestro Corps; an intergalactic army designed to instill fear in the universe. The group's founder, Sinestro, selects members based on their ability to spread fear.
Although Despotellis is the smallest member of the Sinestro Corps (measuring one millimetre), he has the highest kill count by far.
How can such a tiny creature be so deadly? The answer is simple; Despotellis is a virus. He was created in a medical facility on the planet, Khondra. As military scientists kept tinkering with the bio-virus to make it more efficient, Despotellis became self-aware.
He travelled from planet to planet, spreading disease everywhere he went. He's so toxic, he can kill anything within a matter of minutes.
The most disturbing moment is when a Green Lantern called Reemuz returned home for his son's birthday, only to learn that everyone on his world had been killed by this sinister spore.
Not only that, Despotellis had wiped out 85% of life on all planets in the Sector. As small as he is, Despotellis is one of the most dangerous beings in the universe.
