10 Star Trek Villains Who MUST Get Their Revenge

1. The Blue Gills

The Blue Gills, despite one that may or may not have been a model on Tulgana IV, have not appeared in the Alpha Quadrant since Commander Remmick went boom. That, combined with the sudden death of all of their operatives after the Queen's vaporization, was sure to raise some buggy eyebrows on their homeworld.

Where, exactly, was said homeworld? Though the Borg would quickly take their place in galactic events (and the writers' minds), the bugs were a terrifying threat to the security of Starfleet. While this first foray was foiled, a homing beacon was shared with the remainder of their forces. Depending on their power structure, they may be mourning the loss of a great ruling Queen - and they may be more than curious as to what exactly happened to her.

Their intentions were anything but friendly, resulting in the deaths of several prominent Starfleet Officers. Their one weakness, that fin that allowed them to breathe sticking out the back of their host's necks, seems an easy thing to overcome. They are clearly technologically advanced, so one must wonder what they're currently planning for the Alpha Quadrant and Starfleet. 

Starfleet tends to get infiltrated every second Tuesday at this stage, so perhaps now is the very time that they will return in force, ready to take over all officers under the age of twenty five. 

What's that? We've done that one? 

Ok, twenty six then.
