Harleen Frances Quinzel was a psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum when she met the lunatic known as The Joker. She begins to treat him, but quickly falls madly in love with him, adopting his own brand of insanity. She takes the name Harley Quinn and dons a jester costume, becoming The Joker’s sidekick and partner in crime.

Harley goes on to befriend the villain Poison Ivy, who gives her a serum that increases Harley’s strength and agility, but these don’t approach superhuman levels. What makes her truly dangerous is her unpredictability. When facing a hero like Batman, her chaotic nature is her greatest strength, as he is unable to accurately predict her movements since they don’t follow a pattern.

Harley has been reinvented as an anti-hero in recent years and is fast becoming DC’s equivalent to Marvel’s Deadpool. She retains all of her wacky sense of humour and penchant for insane schemes, but now values human life and seeks to save people and not kill them. Whether or not this change is permanent remains to be seen, especially on the big screen.

A lot of supervillains, like superheroes, are defined by their powers. It’s easy to look at a one man army like Darkseid or Doomsday and spot the obvious threat. But it’s often the non-super powered villains that are the most dangerous. What exactly it is that makes these guys and gals so tough can vary. They can be lethal assassins, billionaires with a mad-on for the heroes, or just crazy clowns that want to watch the whole world burn in a blaze of chaos and laughter.

Whatever their motivations or origins, this list explores some of the most terrifying bad guys to ever go head to head with our favorite heroes, all without the luxury of superpowers. Believe us when we say, these guys might not have super powers, but you wouldn’t want to cross them on a dark night unless you had a certain Dark Knight backing you up that is. Even then, if you ever see them, run. Run as fast as you can.
