Nekron
- First appearance: 1981 in the comic Tales of the Green Lantern Corps No. 2
Most people have probably heard of the Green Lanterns, but there is a larger group of Lanterns with different colors representing different concepts or feelings. One of the greatest enemies of the universe is the villain Nekron, who is the leader of the Black Lanterns.
He is the main antagonist in the event Blackest Night
and is virtually the personified death. His goal is quite straightforward: he wants to eliminate all life in the universe. To do this, he resurrects dead heroes and villains as super zombies and fights against the heroes with them.
As an undead being, Nekron cannot be killed because he can simply return. His powers are so extensive that he can drain the life from living beings, and even other cosmic beings can hardly harm him, not even Superman.
His only weakness is his existence. He needs an avatar to act for him in reality. In Blackest Night, it was the villain Black Hand. A similar entity plagues Hulk as well: A villain in Marvel is so powerful that we probably will never see him in the movies
