Slade Teen Titans it’s been a long time
hasn’t it Titans from 2003 to 2006 Ron
Perlman memorably brought longtime DC
villain Slade Wilson to anxiety-inducing
life with his monotone voice performance
and some very effective character design
Slade served as the Titans main
antagonist during the series initial run
showing up time and time again
to play mind games with the team
especially Robin take my word for it
Robin
you shouldn’t play with fire Pearlman’s
performance range from a calm but
menacing soft vocal delivery to
showcasing the characters rage and
hatred the prophecy will be
Slade is the first that comes to mind of
several spooky villains that plague the
Teen Titans even beating out Ravens
father a literal demon number four the
Joker Batman
another distinctive DC villain voice
Mark Hamill’s Joker has become the
definitive portrayal of the character
for many fans known for his disturbing
mix of humor and violence Hamill’s Joker
has served as the perfect foil to Batman
since his introduction as the character
in the animated series you’re going to
melt just like a grilled cheese sandwich
in his many appearances Hamill has both
terrified us and made us laugh but it’s
the scary aspects we want to focus on
here his violent anger outbursts his
sadistic actions and the way he just
laughs it all off The Joker was truly
one of the most disturbing animated
villains of the 90s number 3 ko Avatar

not taking into account just how scary
the character was him was a maniacal
shape-shifting devil with a voice that
