===Metropolis Organized Crime===
Before [[Superman]] donned his costume, Metropolis was already controlled by several gangs. Even though in [[America]], Metropolis is seen as a gleaming city of hope and prosperity, underneath the public image of the city are many facets that are controlled by the most ruthless gangsters and criminals.

'''[[Intergang]]'''
From the beginnings of Superman's career to now, a national crime syndicate has had its clutches on Metropolis for a long time. This organization had ties through the far reaches of space to [[Apokolips]].
* '''[[Bruno Mannheim]]'''<ref>First Appearance: ''{{cnst|Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen Vol 1 139}}''</ref> Bruno Mannheim, nicknamed "Ugly", is arguably the second formidable human being to ever challenge [[Superman]]. His organization, [[Intergang]], has been under the control of [[Darkseid]] for many years. After his superior was in the hospital, Mannheim took control over Intergang. When Clark Kent and his partner exposed Intergang, Mannheim was arrested, but he escaped. In issue #25, Bruno Mannheim was revealed as the current head of Intergang, which is also behind the kidnapping of many of the world's "mad scientists", in a grand plan to take over America by the end of the year. He shows himself now acting like a cult leader, exalting the power of crime as the dominant order in the 21st century, even using the [[Crime Bible]] to aid his operations, and now becoming a cannibal, eating anyone he kills who refuses to join Intergang. [[Superman Vol 1 654|Sometime later]], Mannheim returns as a giant wielding alien technology, claiming that someone other than Darkseid is behind Intergang's current activities.  
* '''[[Morgan Edge (New Earth)|Morgan Edge]]'''<ref>First Appearance: ''{{cnst|Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen Vol 1 133}}''</ref> Morgan Edge was former president of [[Galaxy Broadcasting System]], a prominent media corporation that owned television station WGBS. Edge was also the original leader of Intergang. His Apokoliptian contact was [[Desaad]], one of Darkseid's henchmen. After being hospitalized for a stress related heart attack, Morgan's father took over GBS/WGBS and Mannheim temporarily took control over Intergang. Superman's alter-ego, [[Clark Kent]] and [[Cat Grant]] exposed Edge when it was discovered that he had ties to Intergang. Edge has since lost his job and sponsored the [[Superman Revenge Squad]].
** '''[[Boss Moxie]]''': Bruno's father Boss Moxie, a career gangster, was released from prison after [[Crisis on Infinite Earths|the first Crisis]] and proceeded to gain control of Intergang. Moxie met with [[Cadmus]] scientist [[Dabney Donovan]] and arranged for himself and his former gang members to be fitted with superpowers. Afterwards, Moxie used Vincent Edge to set up a meeting with all of Metropolis's gang-leaders and then killed them single-handedly, declaring himself as the new leader of Intergang. Moxie directed all of Intergang's efforts on locating [[Jimmy Olsen]], whom he thought knew [[Clark Kent|Superman's true identity]]. When Lex Luthor gained control of Intergang after Morgan Edge's short-lived attempt to regain the spot, Luthor retained Moxie as a figurehead. Moxie and his lieutenants were later captured by Superman himself. There's some suggestion that maybe [[Superboy-Prime]] killed Moxie by snapping his neck during [[Infinite Crisis|the second Crisis]].
** '''[[Vincent Edge (New Earth)|Vincent Edge]]''': Morgan's father who took control of GBS/WGBS temporarily until Maxie gained prominence. His son Morgan soon lost the company and Intergang when he was exposed. Vincent's whereabouts are unknown.
** '''[[Frank Sixty (New Earth)|Frank Sixty]]''': A criminal cyberneticist who gained control of Intergang after Morgan Edge until ''[[52]]'' when Mannheim regained control.
** '''[[Whisper A'Daire]]''': 
** '''[[Kyle Abbot]]''': 

===The Masterminds===
Besides Mannheim and Edge, other denizens of subjugation, power, and darkness have appeared in Superman's career that continue to challenge him to this day with their uncanny ability to formulate complex schemes of evil acts.
'''Heavy Hitters''':<br />
* '''[[Lex Luthor]]''': <ref>First Appearance: {{cnst|Action Comics Vol 1 23}}</ref> Coming out of a rough childhood and adolescence, '''Alexander Joseph Luthor''' began furthering his career in the business world. Soon, Luthor became Superman's oldest and most driven foe, thus becoming [[Kal-El]]'s arch-enemy. A shrewd powerful businessman hell-bent on world domination, Luthor has no special powers, except maybe his exceptional genius intellect, which he uses to formulate plans of destruction towards Superman and sometimes [[Metropolis]]; plans of omnipotence over the world. A self-proclaimed Machiavellian industrialist, scientist, and white-collar criminal as referenced by one of his famous quotes, "I'm the greatest criminal mind of our time!," Luthor has proven to be Superman's own "super-foe", being responsible for [[Bizarro|cloning Superman]] in order to ultimately destroy him, engineering smear campaigns to ruin Superman's reputation, and for almost destroying Metropolis.
* '''[[Darkseid]]''': <ref>First Appearance: ''{{cnst|Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen Vol 1 134}}''</ref> After assassinating his mother, '''Uxas''' had become ruler of [[Apokolips]] for thousands of years. A sadistic despot, Darkseid is determined to make sure that he's ruler of the entire universe and to attain that goal, he desperately seeks the [[Anti-Life Equation]], a device that can control all life. Darkseid is responsible for partially igniting [[Our Worlds at War|an interstellar war]], and has been a persistent villain until before [[Final Crisis|the third Crisis]] where his son, [[Orion]], killed him. However, Darkseid was reincarnated and is still wreaking havoc yet again.
* '''[[Brainiac]]''': <ref>First Appearance: {{c|Action Comics Vol 1 242}}</ref> Originally from the distant planet, [[Colu]], the scientist '''Vril Dox''' was merged into his own creation, '''The Brain InterActive Construct''', a machine created by The Computer Tyrants to obtain information in the universe. Brainiac thus broke away from his superiors and has a goal of ultimately obtaining all information in the universe and destroying all the planets it came from. Brainiac's rampage has made him enemies with [[Kal-El]], the only humanoid who can stop him. Brainiac has been responsible for shrinking the city of [[Kandor]], inhabiting [[Milton Fine|a human being]], gaining a new cybernetic body, plotting to gain control of Superman's body, and almost dominating the universe in [[Brainiac 13|his 13th version]]. Currently, Brainiac and Superman continue to be enemies. With no capacity for good, Brainiac continues to complete his functioning program of learning all information in the universe until he has destroyed everything.
* '''[[General Zod]]''': <ref>First Appearance: {{cnst|Adventure Comics Vol 1 283}}</ref> '''Dru-Zod''' was one of Krypton's most efficient military commanders. That all changed when he hears that his friends, renowned scientist [[Jor-El]] has predicted Krypton's imminent destruction. When the [[Kryptonian Science Council]] lobotomizes Zod's friend for leading a separatist movement, Zod becomes disillusioned with the Kryptonian societal norms. Zod, with the aid of his lover and his friend, launch an insurrection plot to overthrow Krypton's government and establish a new order on the planet. Zod's main motivation applied to his megalomania, his insatiable need to control everything. Zod tried to get Jor-El to join their rebellion, but he refused. Eventually, The Council thwarted Zod's plot; sentenced him and his co-conspirators to eternal imprisonment in the [[Phantom Zone]]. Jor-El condemned them to the imprisonment, prompting Zod to swear vengeance against him  and his heirs. Zod and his cohorts have since escaped the Phantom Zone and terrorized Jor-El's son, [[Kal-El]], just as he promised. Zod had two accomplices that helped him in his quest for power:
** '''[[Ursa]]''': <ref name=Action845>{{c|Action Comics Vol 1 845}}</ref> A former member of the Kryptonian guard, Ursa is Zod's lover and most loyal accomplice. When she heard that Jor-El and another scientist had foreseen Krypton's destruction, she believed them and sought to oppose the Council in rebellion. The Council retaliated by lobotomizing her friend and in turn, Zod and Ursa instigated open rebellion. She hated Jor-El for surrendering to the Council and not supporting their cause; when the trio were arrested, Jor-El himself condemned in their trial by sending them to the Phantom zone as a result of the sentencing. Ursa has since swore vengeance on the House of El with Zod and their friend. Ursa has since escaped with her two accomplices from the Zone and terrorized Kal-El to gain custody of [[Lor-Zod (New Earth)|her son]], who's also the son of Zod.
** '''[[Non]]''': <ref name=Action845/> A former scientist and member of the Kryptonian Council, Non predicted Krypton's destruction with [[Jor-El]], making Zod and Ursa believe their claim. Soon after, Non led a separatist movement to break way from the Kryptonian government, earning him their wrath when afterwards, they lobotomized him. Now a minimally-verbal mute, Non has lost his sense of right and wrong, and sided with Zod and Ursa because of their friendship, ultimately leading them to being banished to the Phantom Zone. After escaping from the Zone, Non has helped his friends in their failed attempt to invade Earth with the help of other Kryptonian criminals that have escaped as well.

* '''[[The Elite]]''': A group of individuals that take extreme measures to eliminate crime. Led by the Villain, Manchester Black.
** '''[[Manchester Black]]''': The sinister, telepathic leader of the Elite. He has made it his personal mission to make Superman think mercy is useless.

===The Compulsive Evildoers===
Aside from the power-hungry masterminds and ruthless mobsters, Superman has also had to contend with other enemies whose sole purpose in life is to bring evil and suffering to the superhero community and the world.

* '''[[Doomsday]]''': <ref>First Appearance: ''[[Death of Superman]]''</ref> Born on Krypton in the distant past as an evolved artificial life-form, '''The Ultimate''' was created by a mysterious alien scientist, Bertron. After many years of dying and coming back alive in Berton's experiments of evolution, Doomsday snapped and turned on Bertron, killing him and hordes of other living Kryptonian creatures. Doomsday then traveled the galaxy, becoming a extraterrestrial serial killer bent on destructing the universe's societies. His murder spree lead him to Earth where his plan for destroying the planet was thwarted by [[Superman]]. Doomsday and Superman engaged in a fight that lead to both of their deaths. Superman and Doomsday were later resurrected and they still challenge each other currently. Whatever kills Doomsday only makes him stronger; he revives himself again and again only to bring death to all sentient beings. Doomsday eventually gained the ability to kill people with his mere presence and infect others with a virus that makes others like him.

* '''[[Parasite (Rudy Jones)|Parasite]]''': <ref>First Appearance: {{cnst|Action Comics Vol 1 340}}</ref> A menial slacker and janitor of a Pittsburgh [[S.T.A.R. Labs]] facility, '''Rudy Jones''' came in contact with hazardous chemicals changing him into a purple being capable of draining energy from anyone. Jones has since used his new-found abilities to gain Superman's powers in order to better himself. After Jones's defeat, Superman has had to battle other versions of Parasite like Dr.Freeman, Alex and Alexandra Allston.

* '''[[Bizarro]]'''<ref>First Appearance: {{cnst|Superboy Vol 1 68}}</ref>: An imperfect copy of Superman, '''Bizarro''' is the opposite of the Kryptonian hero in many ways. His warped sense of moral makes Bizarro think evil is good, and some of his powers are inversions of Superman's (instead of heat vision and ice breath, Arctic Vision and Flame-Breath). Occasionally he serves as Superman's ally.

* '''[[Cyborg Superman]]'''<ref>First Appearance: {{cnst|Adventures of Superman Vol 1 500}}</ref>: An evil robotic counterpart built out of Kryptonian technology and genetics. Originally he was '''Hank Henshaw''', an astronaut who blamed Superman for the death of his wife and constructed his body after becoming his mind into Kal-El's [[Kryptonian Birthing Matrix]]. '''Zor-El''', who upon his death was rebuilt by Brainiac into a mechanical body was the new Cyborg Superman, before Hank Henshaw took over the role again.

* '''[[Metallo]]'''<ref>First Appearance: {{c|Action Comics Vol 1 252}}</ref>: '''John Corben''' is a cyborg whose robotic body runs on Green Kryptonite, thus giving him a natural advantage over Superman.

* '''[[Winslow Schott|Toyman]]'''<ref>First Appearance: {{c|Action Comics Vol 1 64}}</ref>: A  sociopathic mechanical genius, ''' Winslow Schott''' likes to create violent, destructive, and dangerous toys. He also created several human-like robots who also became the Toyman. In some versions, he seeks vengeance on Mannheim, who framed his father for money laundering.

* '''[[Denny Swan (Prime Earth)|Denny Swan]]''': A mad man made of energy who believed he was Superman. He was killed when the energy in his body exploded, taking Prime Earth Superman with him.

===Extraterrestrials Villains===
* '''[[Imperiex-Prime|Imperiex]]''': <ref>First Appearance: ''[[Our Worlds at War]]''</ref> Essentially the embodiment of entropy, '''Imperiex-Prime''' sought out to destroy all galaxies in order to "stop the imperfection" present. He sent numerous [[Imperiex Probes|probes]] to guide his destructive campaign which was impeded by [[Superman]] and his allies. Even Kal-El's arch-enemies, [[Darkseid]] and [[Alexander Luthor (New Earth)|then-President Lex Luthor]], joined the battle against Imperiex. Darkseid and the superhero [[John Henry Irons (New Earth)|Steel]] developed an Entropy Aegis armor (created from a burned out Imperiex probe) for Superman to use for defending himself against Prime. With the help of numerous allies, Superman destroyed Prime by sending him and [[Brainiac 13|an accomplice]] back through time to the Big Bang, the explosive origin of space 14 billion years ago. That in itself sealed Imperiex's doom, erasing his existence forever. Just before being destroyed by Superman, Imperiex realized the "imperfection" in all the galaxies was himself.
* '''[[Maxima|Queen Maxima of Almerac]]''': Obsessed with becoming the Man of Steel's mate in order to bear strong children, Maxima has alternated between enemy and ally throughout the years.

* '''[[Lobo]]'''<ref>First Appearance: {{c|Omega Men Vol 1 3}}</ref>: After massacring all the other people in his home planet of Czarnia, '''Lobo''' became an ultra-violent motorcycle-riding inter-galactic bounty hunter. His wicked ways cause him to occasionally clash with Superman,<ref>{{c|Adventures of Superman Vol 1 464}}</ref><ref>{{c|Adventures of Superman Annual #2}}</ref><ref>{{c|Superman: The Man of Steel Vol 1 30}}</ref><ref>{{c|DC First: Superman/Lobo Vol 1 1}}</ref> but often he opts to help various superheroes.

* '''[[Mongul]]''' <ref>First Appearance: {{c|DC Comics Presents Vol 1 27}}</ref>: The devious ruler of [[Warworld]], Mongul is a warlord and despot who has clashed with Superman on various occasions.

* '''[[Mister Mxyzptlk]]'''<ref>First Appearance: {{c|Superman Vol 1 30}}</ref>: A reality manipulating imp from the 5th Dimension, '''Mister Mxyzptlk''' constantly antagonizes Superman, seeking to pester the Man of Steel and prove he's smarter than the hero.

* '''[[Rogol Zaar (Prime Earth)|Rogol Zaar]]''': He apparently destroyed Krypton, under the belief that the Kryptonians would defy the gods. He came to earth to kill the remaining Kryptonians and destroyed Kandor.

* '''[[Dominus]]'''

* '''[[Subjekt-17 (New Earth)|Subjekt-17]]'''

* '''[[Massacre (New Earth)|Massacre]]'''

===Alternate Supermen===
Superman has made enemies out of various alternate versions of himself.

* '''[[Ultraman]]''': An evil version of Superman from earth-3. Like the rest of the Justice League and Crime Syndicate, Superman and Ultraman fight each other whenever they encounter each other.

* '''[[Superboy Prime]]''': A psychotic, sadistic, and sociopathic version of Superman from Earth-Prime, after his world is destroyed, he went mad and tried to reboot the multiverse to restore his world. In this quest, he killed many people, including [[Kon-El (New Earth)|Superboy]], and massacred through many Teen Titans and Lanterns without remorse.

* '''[[Super-Man Zero (Prime Earth)|Superman Zero]]''': An evil clone of Superman created by Doctor Omen.

* '''[[Overman]]''': A Nazi-affiliated version of Superman. He helped the Nazi's take over his world.

* '''[[Alexander Evell (New Earth)|Alex Evell]]''' - 
* '''[[Amalak (Earth-One)|Amalak]]''' - A ruthless space-pirate with fantastic technological gimmicks at his disposal and a fierce desire to destroy the last surviving [[Kryptonians]].
* '''[[Amok (New Earth)|Amok]]'''-
* '''[[Joseph Angst (New Earth)|Angstrom]]'''
* '''[[Floyd Barstow Clone (New Earth)|Anomaly]]''' - A genetically engineered clone of a vicious murderer and criminal, created by [[Project Cadmus]] although his true loyalties are with the [[Superman Revenge Squad]].
* '''[[Quigley (Earth-Two)|Archer]]''' - A crook with a bow-and-arrow gimmick; in a perverse reinterpretation, robs from the rich and gives to himself.
* '''[[Albert Michaels (New Earth)|The Atomic Skull]]''' - A [[S.T.A.R. Labs]] research scientist with a debilitating and ultimately lethal seizure disorder, Albert Michaels sold his soul to the [[SKULL]] crime syndicate in exchange for their surgeons to implant an experimental radium-powered device in his brain and slow the progress of his condition. Instead, the radium device transformed Michaels into an emaciated husk and caused seizures to strike with ever-increasing frequency, while also converting the erratic fluctuations of electrical potential during these episodes into deadly blasts of a strange new type of energy. As the original Atomic Skull, Michaels runs the SKULL cartel with an iron fist, desperate to find a cure for his condition if at all possible and willing to take everyone and everything down with him if he can't.
* '''[[Auctioneer (New Earth)|Auctioneer]]''' - An extraterrestial visitor with a nack for collecting rare and extraordinary specimens from throughout the universe, both living and non-living. He came to Earth in search of Superman and Supergirl, to his knowledge the two last surviving [[Kryptonians]], only to come in for a shock when his scanners registered the presence of a [[Karsta Wor-Ul (New Earth)|third]].
* '''[[Blaze]]''' - The sister of the demon lord [[Satanus]] and an entity no less bitter, manipulative, or hateful than he. Blaze is also the misbegotten daughter of the wizard [[Shazam]] and poses as a human nightclub owner to facilitate her mission in the damnation of souls. Blaze often competes with Satanus for status and power in the hierarchy of [[Hell]].
* '''[[Baron Sunday (New Earth)|Baron Sunday]]''' - 
* '''[[Phillip Karnowsky (New Earth)|Barrage]]''' - A small-time meta-criminal with an arm cannon capable of firing high-energy projectiles; also a member of the [[Superman Revenge Squad]].
* '''[[Baud (New Earth)|Baud]]''' - 
* '''[[Black Adam]]''' - The arch-nemesis of [[Shazam]]/[[Captain Marvel]], he has matched Superman more than once. Originally Teth-Adam of [[Kahndaq]], a satellite-state of [[Egypt]], thousands of years ago, Black Adam was given the enchantment of the wizard [[Shazam]], to summon the powers of Shu, Heru, Amon, Zehuty, Aten and Mehen upon speaking the magic word of the wizard's name and charged with being the hero and champion of all the land. However, Adam strayed from justice and embraced vengeance and domination. Consequently, the wizard banished Black Adam from the mortal world up until his re-emergence in the modern era.
* '''[[Blackie Sarto (New Earth)|Blackie Sarto]]''' - 
* '''[[Blackrock]]''' - A manufactured costumed persona created by [[Peter Silverstone]], the research and development head for the United Broadcasting Company, at the behest of the network CEO [[Samuel Tanner (Earth-One)|Sam Tanner]], who wanted an eye-catching superhero at UBC's beck and call to compete with rival [[WGBS]]'s lucrative Superman-centric media focus. Silverstone gave his creation Blackrock powers with an EM-manipulating Powerstone and brainwashed Tanner and then Tanner's nephew Les Vegas into adopting the identity before taking up the persona himself, tempted by the allure of using the Powerstone for criminal gain. However, Superman and Supergirl put Blackrock down and hauled him behind bars every time. Eventually, unreformed ex-con Sam Benjamin murdered Silverstone and stole the Powerstone to become Blackrock himself. After a brief and unsuccessful villain stint, Benjamin lost the Powerstone, which Superman threw into the Sun for good measure. In the lead-up to the [[Infinite Crisis]], [[Alexander Luthor, Jr. (Earth-Three)|Lex Luthor's imposter]] used [[Bizarro]] to retrieve the Powerstone from the Sun and gave it to a [[Lucia (New Earth)|psychopathic drug-baroness]] from [[Peru]], who gave Superman and Supergirl no small amount of trouble before she too was defeated and deprived of the Powerstone. Even without a human wielder, the Powerstone caused trouble for the world when it was revealed to be a sentient alien parasite and became an integral part of an attempt by [[Despero]] to extend psychic control over Earth's variegated alien diaspora.
* '''[[Robert DuBois|Bloodsport]]''' - A traumatized and tragically deranged African-American [[Vietnam War]] veteran who was given access to ultra-modern military hardware and a seemingly unlimited supply of [[Kryptonite]] ammunition by [[Lex Luthor]] as part of a viciously exploitative scheme to destroy Superman. Bloodsport's name and some of his tech were later ironically appropriated by a white supremacist neo-Nazi. The tensions between the original and second Bloodsports came to a head when the two were allowed by prison authorities to brawl it out in a fight to be refereed by Superman himself. Predictably, prison gangs conspired to use the event to wreak racially-motivated chaos, and both Bloodsports are believed to have ultimately been killed. Since [[Infinite Crisis]], an imitator of the original Bloodsport has been seen amid the [[Metropolis]] underworld scene.
* '''[[Bloodthirst (New Earth)|Bloodthirst]]''' - An alien or supernatural creature who used the second [[Bloodsport]] and [[Hi-Tech]] to cause havoc for its own empowerment.
* '''[[Borden Moseley (New Earth)|Borden Moseley]]''' - 
* '''[[Brainiac 13]]''' - An upgraded version of the original [[Brainiac]] from the [[64th Century]], B13 used his [[20th Century]]/[[21st Century]] counterpart to open a gateway into the city of [[Metropolis]] upon the eve of the new millennium and used his future nanotech to convert Metropolis into a true City of Tomorrow, albeit one totally under his self-serving control. B13 willingly returned to the future and handed the secret information of how to control the nanotech to [[Lex Luthor]] in exchange for the body of Lex's daughter [[Lena Luthor]], which contained a copy of the original Brainiac's consciousness. B13 then returned during the [[Our Worlds At War|Imperiex War]] to take advantage of the situation and remake creation in his image from the control-seat of a new [[Warworld]]. Superman stopped this by transporting both B13 and Imperiex through a time-portal back to the dawn of time, where both met their ignominious end. B13 was then retroactively prevented from ever having come into existence when Superman fought his immediate predecessor [[Brainiac 12 (Futuresmiths)|Brainiac 12]] and caught him in an eternal time-loop, also retroactively undoing the hi-tech modifications to the Metropolis infrastructure.
* '''[[Chemo]]''': Chemo is an inexplicably animate vat of toxic chemicals created from the waste products of dozens of failed experiments by a single scientist. The scientist stored these chemical wastes in a humanoid container due to his odd sense of humor, but it is doubtful that he still found it funny when the random cocktail of corrosive and poisonous compounds in the container came to life and melted him down to the bone. Although primarily the arch-foe of the [[Metal Men]], Chemo has battled the Man of Steel on numerous occasions. He has been destroyed on numerous occasions but somehow keeps on finding some way to return. Such indefatigable resolve is remarkable for an entity which is likely not even truly sentient, though perhaps Chemo's most infamous act was when the [[Brotherhood of Evil]], on behalf of the [[Secret Society of Super-Villains (Villains United)|Society]], dropped him over [[Bludhaven]], killed thousands of people upon detonation, and made the city uninhabitable for over a year.<ref>{{c|DC Comics Presents Vol 1 4}}</ref> <ref>{{c|Superman Vol 1 342}}</ref> <ref>{{c|Superman Vol 1 370}}</ref> <ref>{{c|Action Comics Vol 1 590}}</ref> <ref>{{c|Adventures of Superman Vol 1 593}}</ref> <ref>{{c|Adventures of Superman Vol 1 648}}</ref>
* '''[[Colonel Future]]''' - On Earth-One, [[Edmond Hamilton (Earth-One)|Colonel Future]] was not an enemy, but an ally, of [[Kal-El (Earth-One)|Superman]], who used his hi-tech equipment and precognitive abilities to the Man of Tomorrow's benefit. On [[Earth-Two]], however, [[Edmond Future (Earth-Two)|Colonel Future]] was a criminal mastermind active in the early 1950s whose gimmick was the utilization of futuristic technological gimmicks in his heists. It was on behalf of Colonel Future that the [[Injustice Society]]'s [[Wizard]] attempted to sabotage the [[Kal-L (Earth-Two)|Earth-Two Superman]], unwittingly creating the circumstance for that version of Clark Kent to pursue his self-denied dreams and live happily in matrimony to [[Lois Lane (Earth-Two)|Lois Lane]], while being honest with his wife about both of his identities.
* '''[[Kenneth Braverman (New Earth)|Conduit]]''' - A rival of Clark Kent during his youth in [[Smallville]], who grew up sickly and plagued by health problems due to long-term exposure to [[Kryptonite]] radiations that arrived on Earth with the coming of the baby Kal-El's rocket. As an adult, Kenny Braverman became a ruthless and heartless intelligence operative but never forgot his original goal of destroying Clark Kent's life to resolve his deep-seated insecurities. Braverman realized that the Kryptonite radiations absorbed into his tissues could be harnessed by a specially constructed armor and that he could use this radiation to kill Superman by channeling it through retractable cables, making Braverman a living conduit for K-energies. Braverman was one of the few villains to independently deduce Superman's true identity as Clark Kent and use it against him and his loved ones to terrifying effect.
* '''[[Dabney Donovan (New Earth)|Dabney Donovan]]''': Co-founder of [[Project Cadmus (New Earth)|Project Cadmus]] with a twisted belief in human experimentation, with connections to [[Intergang]]. From a certain perspective, Donovan can be seen as the arch-enemy of the [[James Harper Clone (New Earth)|Guardian]] and the [[Newsboy Legion (New Earth)|Newsboy Legion]].
* '''[[Dev-Em]]''' - A survivor from Krypton's destruction, Dev-Em tried to ruin Superboy's reputation by committing acts of vandalism dressed as him. Later he reformed and became an ally of the Legion of Super-Heroes. Alternate versions of Dev-Em have been criminals banished to Phantom Zone who have harassed not only Superman but also his cousin.
* '''[[Constantine Stratos (New Earth)|Doctor Stratos]]''' -
*'''[[Dreadnaught]]''' - 
* '''[[Effron the Sorcerer]]''' - 
* '''[[Equus]]''' - A cyborg used to do the dirty work of the very organization which employs [[Elias Orr (New Earth)|Mr. Orr]].
* '''[[Elias Orr]]''' - The mercenary operative of a clandestine conspiratorial organization which engineered the sudden disappearance of thousands of people from the face of the Earth and into the [[Phantom Zone]].
* '''[[Etrigan (New Earth)|Etrigan]]''' - A demon who has battled Superman in the past, though usually acts in a heroic or semi-heroic role due to his curse of being bound to the immortal [[Jason Blood (New Earth)|Jason Blood]]. - <ref>{{c|Action Comics Vol 1 587}}</ref> <ref>{{c|The Demon Vol 3 28}}</ref> <ref>{{c|Action Comics Vol 1 762}}</ref> <ref>{{c|Blood of the Demon Vol 1 5}}</ref>
* '''[[Ferlin Nyxly]]''' - A petty criminal sorceror who styles himself after the Greek satyr/god Pan, Ferlin Nyxly struck at Superman during a time when his powers were ebbing due to his doppelganger, the [[Sand Superman]], but even then, his skills ultimately did him no good against the Man of Steel.
* '''[[Galactic Golem]]''' - A super-powerful behemoth made of the very primordial matter at the heart of the universe, and more than capable of crushing Superman in a contest of pure brawn under any given set of circumstances. The original Galactic Golem was the construct of Lex Luthor, and was nearly mindless in his first outing, although he gained human-level intelligence by the time of his second.

On another occasion, the [[Phantom Stranger]] summoned Superman and the [[Joker]] to "lobotomize" Maaldor before his consciousness ran out of control.
