8. The Dark Avengers
After saving the world on live television, Norman "The Green Goblin" Osborn became a national hero. He was put in charge of S.H.I.E.L.D. (which he renamed H.A.M.M.E.R. because he's a super villain and that's just what you do) and most importantly, he was given the go ahead to form an Avengers team. So did he draft legitimate super heroes? Nope! He grabbed a bunch of supervillains, let them cosplay as superheroes, and sent them out into the world.
Because that could never turn out badly at all ever. Yeah, Norman? Maybe dressing Venom up like Spider-Man and letting him just run around free could result in some negative consequences. Or maybe Bullseye shouldn't get to be Hawkeye, even if they both share the second syllables of their names. Oh and he capped off the whole stunt by getting himself a star-spangled Iron Man suit and naming himself The Iron Patriot which is the perfect blend of pandering and evil.
