Marvel

(I almost put Deadpool in the list but he still do evil stuff in the comics)

Juggernaut has been a long time villain of the X-men, He is not a mutant but he got powers because of some magical gem. He is Professor X's brother. Recently he got a change of heart and is a member of X-men now.


Magneto has become leader of X-men at certain point and currently an active member. He became evil because want to protect mutants from racist humans.


Rouge started as a teenage supervillain who does everything Mystique tells her. She debuted as a villain of the Avengers. She almost killed Captain America, Stole Captain Marvel's power and beats up every single Avenger who is not Hulk. She changed her ways when X-men tries to make her join them. Here she is stealing Captain Marvel's powers on her Miss Marvel days.


Venom: He is a villain to Spiderman but he fights crime these days.




DC:

Catwoman- if you think about it, she is not that evil, She is a Thief who uses her loot to help stray cats and endangered big cats like lions and tigers. Her encounters with Batman made her change her ways.



Harley Quinn

Many people are able to relate to her when she was Joker's girlfriend because she is a martyr in an abusive relationship. Ever since she was put in Suicide Squad, she is becoming less and less villainous and currently the best selling female character in DC, She sells more comics than Wonder woman.

Stories of people or villains who were bad and then worked on themselves to become good, seem to have a very strong appeal. Maybe it reminds us that we can also change ourselves and become the person we want to be. Looking at the image of Venom above, it is difficult to imagine how he could be developed into an attractive and appealing superhero character.

I like those characters and how they came to be, most of them just wanted a normal life and then life happened. I think that is the reason why at some point they did reconsider and wanted to do something good with their lives. I did not know that Cat Woman Champions the well-being of small and big cats.

Lately many bad superheros join good one. I guess big threat to entire planet or aliens is something which can turn side.
Example when Thanos attacked Earth we had see few villans figthing for Earth or entire space.

Hope they don't cast a senior citizen as Magneto so the romance with Rouge wont be gross.

I've only been a fan of cat woman, I love the list above I will search for some of their series and see how they turned out to be good citizens.

Is Joker still alive? I don't remember see him in any role from Suice Squad and there he was a side actor. Batman is now more active on international level and aliens than in Gotham and Joker.

Still alive, he just gave birth from his pregnancy remember.

It is really a character act that is indeed fascinating to see Juggernaut from a nemesis to an ally of X Men. I am just watching what he would contribute to the dynamics of the team.

Venom became a partner to Spiderman because overtime he understand that they had a symbiotic relationship and a common enemy. And they are working together now to combat crime.

[Treborika]

It teaches me a lesson that with the determination and being resilient we can be what one wants to be with time.

Does Venom still eat chickens or it find something better in multiversum?

their determination loses though when they are villains

[mrki444]

Can we cosider Superman Red Son as villan or superhero?
Red Superman is Superman but in world where he fall in SSSR and he is raised as comunist. He is under influence of Joseph Stalin.

[Netherrealmer]

I dont think variation counts, the ones on the list have long careers as villains

[sweerie_banana]

I believe that generally depends on one's viewpoint which makes the story so compelling.

[KityCat]

I knew they venom and dc ones , but damn the xmen stuff is shocking . The films have portrait then so differently . I have not read the comics yet though .

[Netherrealmer]

x-men movies are created by a gay guy who hates comics and think Hugh Jackman is hot, Thats why they were very different. They give rogue's role to Mystique, Jubillee's role to Rogue. Its a mess

[germainebull]

Like many others, I also relate to the character Harley Quinn.
It so happens that I empathize with oppressed people even in real life. Being a committed advocate for justice, I take offense whenever a villain mistreats others.
I am sure whether this is a weakness or strength.
