    Interesting how outside of Joker and Lex Luthor, not many of the villains are household names.

    Well obviously those are the most prominent, I know THAT, but I was wondering who is the MAIN nemesis of Superman currently, like an Archenemy, maybe it's too early to tell.

    I disagree. Many Batman villains are household names, and are generally known by the non comic reading public, Catwoman (Used to be a villain, but you know what I mean), Riddler, The Penguin, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Two Face. Superman less so, he doesn't have that great a rogues gallery but Darkseid and Brainiac are very well known.

    Not a lot of non-comics fans know Darkseid. And while the general public knows the term "Brainiac," I doubt they're thinking of the same thing we would when hearing the term. Because they're stupid.

    I believe heroes with substantial rogues gallery's tend to have two archenemies. A personal arch and a big bad.
    The big bad is usually the heroes most powerful enemy, the one that challenges them the most physically. The personal arch tends to have more personal relationship to the hero, and their struggles tend to revolve around personal relationships.
    1. Superman = Brainiac, Luthor

    2. Batman = Joker, Ras al Ghoul

    3. Wonder Woman= Cheetah, Ares

    4. Aquaman= Ocean Master, and Black Manta
