Marvel has many villains with unique skills and designs, but that does not mean that everyone is good, as there are several of them that are very strange and they have not received much attention by the followers for obvious reasons. These characters do not have a good story plot, their powers are not so useful as to make history and the designs of their outfits are not well structured.
It should be noted that most of these villains they only appeared a few times in the comics because they were not difficult to catch for superheroes, for that reason they are considered as secondary in history. Next, we leave each of them explaining why they are considered the worst villains in the Marvel universe.
Bullfighter
He made his first appearance on Daredevil # 5 of 1964, his real name is Manuel Eloganto, he is a Spaniard who was dedicated to being a bullfighter, was fired for mistreating animals at work and after that he decided to devote himself to crime robbing banks in various parts of New York. His abilities were to use the sword with experienced movements and throw his bullfighter cloak at his enemies or cars to stop them. This villain had the opportunity to face Daredevil in his early days, but the fight they argued it in an illogical way, since the bullfighter defeats Daredevil by throwing his cloak so that he does not see, but the power of Daredevil is his super senses, so despite everything at that moment he could see. Subsequently the Matador is caught by the hero without much trouble and then was jailed.
Asbestos Lady
In the early Marvel comics, where Jim Hammond's Human Torch (not the fantastic 4) made his first appearance in Marvel Comics # 1 and is considered as the first superhero created by the company. This superhero of course had his villain, which in this case, was a woman named Victoria Murdock by the name of Asbestos Lady of Human Torch Comics # 27 of 1947, which made an asbestos suit to resist the heat when faced with the Human Torch, but this did not work very well, since some time later it was confirmed that this material gave cancer, and for that same reason it was concluded that the villain suffered from this disease that later ended her life.
Mandrill
The villain Mandrill has this name for obvious reasons, and its design is based mainly on the species of Catarrino primate of the Cercopithecidae family that could be seen for the first time in SHanna the She-Devil # 4 of 1973. Her real name is Jerome Beechman, and she looks so strange because when she was in her mother's womb she was exposed to a lot of radiation when a nuclear reactor exploded near her. A year later he was born with black skin without having African descent, beautiful in the whole body and strange features on his face, this made Jerome despised by his family and at 10 he was abandoned by his father in the desert from New Mexico.
Because of this he is born a hatred towards humanity, and in his teens he discovers that he has the ability to control women with their pheromones, which makes them work for him and that they themselves face their enemies against their will.
Turner D Century
Clifford F. Michaels, a character who first appeared in Spider-Woman # 33 of 1980, is a villain who has a hatred of society because of the misconduct of young people, because they think they are the reason for the degeneration of manners and customs. He does not have any human skills, he only has the ability to invent things to use in his criminal acts, such as machine that kills people under 65 that did not work well, a flamethrower umbrella and a flying bicycle, things that really were not very useful to deal with Spider-Woman.
Leap Frog
After Marvel saw the success of characters with animal-based skills, such as Rinho and Dr. Connor, they created Leap Frog, a villain with the real name that invents shoes that allow him jump very high and that he resembles him with a frog, creating a suit inspired by this animal to be recognized as Leap Frog. He appeared for the first time in Daredevil vol. 1 # 25 of 1967, but his career as a villain did not last long, since he was not so intelligent creating his plans and was very easy to catch, in the end he ends up imprisoned without attracting the attention of many people.
Armless Tiger Man
Have you ever imagined a Marvel character without arms? As Armless Tiger Man is a reality, he made his first appearance in Marvel Mystery Comics # 26 of 1940, his story focuses on how he lost his arms in a job with heavy machinery, which caused him to lose his sanity by sharpening his teeth to become a cannibal He would then develop skills and strength in his teeth and legs to be a Nazi villain.
Typeface

This generated a trauma that made him a psycho who sticks letters all over the body for no reason, then he goes on to do the crime all over the city, but when he meets Spider-Man, he gives him the advice to devote himself to do good by being a watchman
Egg head
That this villain has the name "Egg Head" was one of the reasons why he was not taken seriously during his appearance in Tales to Astonish # 39 of 1959. The character despite being called Elihas Starr, had the appearance of his nickname, was a scientist who was looking for the formula to not grow old and who also repeatedly made life impossible for Ant-Man with the obsession of the discovery of Hank Pym . Later in an encounter with Hawkeye, the Egghead he received an arrow before he fired his gun, thus ending his life.
