Superman and Lois Lane

Superman is DC's first super hero in addition to being 1 of the best super heroes of all time. Superman doesn't have as many iconic villains as Batman, but he does have some cool enemies. This list is about my 5 favorite enemies of Superman.

5. Mr. Mxyzptlk

Mr. Mxyzptlk is 1 of Superman's most entertaining enemies. He truly shines in Superman: The Animated Series where is amusingly voiced by Gilbert Gottfried.

4. Doomsday
