15 DEADLIEST Comic Book Assassins

Wolverine and X-23 are among the most dangerous people on Earth since their adamantium-laced skeletons and healing factors render them almost unkillable.

But there is one person who makes their abilities redundant; Omega Red. This merciless albino has tentacles fused to his wrists, which are composed of a flexible adamantium called carbonadium. This malleable metal has the ability to nullify a mutant's healing factor, rendering Wolverine and his ilk vulnerable if ensnared in Omega Red's coils.

But that's not the worst part. This Russian mutant has the ability to spew death spores. He is so sadistic, he admits that he takes great pleasure in enveloping his victims in his tentacles and watching them die before his eyes.

Even without his powers, Omega Red is an unstoppable agent of evil. After being trained by the Soviet and Japanese underworld, he has become a versatile combatant and has held his own against heroes like Cable and Iron Man.

Although he started off as an assassin for the KGB, he eventually worked his way up to becoming the ruler of his own mob called The Red Mafia.
