@@knightofarkronia8652 true, but he does retain any knowledge he gains during the absorption process, like how even though Superman's powers wore off he still knew Superman was actually Clark Kent and knew where he lived, meaning he could potentially become as smart as characters like Batman or Lex Luthor permanently if he got his hands on them.
111 111 I wouldn’t exactly call parasite one of the most powerful super villains dangerous one of the most dangerous yes one of the most powerful I don’t know about that.
The All-Star Superman version is probably my favourite. Giving him a mouth like a leech looks unnerving as hell, but I think it really sells the idea of him actually being a parasite.
Fun Fact: in the Superman Animated Series and forward, Rudy Jones isn't wearing a suit. The chemicals burned his skin to look like that. He's fighting in the nude.
Kousuke Ueki It's hard to say, especially since Parasite usually has to come into physical contact with a superhero to obtain their powers temporarily, while AMAZO just has to scan them and gain a permanent boost.
I think Amazon would win. He's a robot with no organic matter so even if parasite got close to absorb amazo it be no different than sucking energy from a spoon. Also amazo powers sticks around way longer
Hmm two for amazo honestly I think parasite amazo is a machine which means no matter what it run on a power supply something that parasite can drain parasite can be shown to absorb the kinetic energy of bullets if he can do that whatever amazo runs on can be absorbed as well
Amazo is an android who can replicate superpowers,parasite can only absorb living things energy and if one of his victims is super powered then he can gain their abilities. Amazon by default has the combined powers of green lantern,the flash and superman.
Rudy Jones from STAS was the most relatable and a very shades of grey character. I loved that he was a reg dude and not crazy or evil. Just trying to make the best of the worst situation. Even when offered to work he was was like naw that's ok, I'm good in prison plus I have cable. Lol He was written very much like an anime villain in that regard.
My favorite superman villain cause I wish I had his powers even though it's temporary But surely the knowledge that he absorbs can remain in his brain right That's all I would really need
@@tonystank7005 I just like the idea of having what he has to make my life easier I mean even though what he copies is only temporary. surely he can remember the knowledge from the certain people he touches into his own brain once the other effect runs out
Tony Stank You could absorb the energy of living beings to fuel your own reserve. You could essentially just power off of anything in your vicinity to achieve levels of power unimaginable. The possibilities of such a power in the right hands are unfathomable.
@@trueblue6201 Oh, understood!^-^ Would be nice if they finally bring the female version of Parasite in the big screen and other DC media! Am I right? :D
Personally as good as Superman TAS I felt their version of Rudy could’ve been a tragic character in the same vain as Two face or Clayface in Batman TAS. Especially given his associate treated him like crap.
I loved watching Superman TAS . I thought Rudy Jones / Parasite was such a cool villain and underrated one . Brion James did a phenomenal voice performance as Parasite in Superman TAS 😮. RIP Brion James . I loved every episode featuring Parasite 🙂 Brian George did a great voice performance too in Justice League and he sounds similiar to Brion James . 🙂
My favorite design is the one from justice league action! I just like how monstrous he looks. And the gut tentacles are a cool trick Its a shame we don’t get to see more of him. His character was probably the best in young justice though, nothing more villainous than food puns!
Wait, if he can absorb everyone's powers and knowledge, is it possible for him to absorb personality and morals too? Because if it's possible, if it does stick, he'd be a great hero, too.
Parasite was a new character for the DC Comic Media “Animated or Live Action TV or Movie” starting in the 1990S. Hmm, was Parasite featured in the Comics way before he made a Media appearance on a Screen?
Although he wasn't purple and I'm not sure if he was called "the Parasite", there was a character who absorbed energy and was clearly based on parasite in the 1966 filmation Superman cartoon
They were created essentially at the same time. Parasite I (Ray Jensen) appeared in Action Comics #340, in June 1966. The episode you're referencing, "The Pernicious Parasite" featuring a different character named IC Harris, aired in December 1966. I'm surprised the video left out the Smallville version played by Brenden Fletcher.
I know it is a weird match up but I some times wonder who would win in a fight between Parasite and Goku. Would Parasite be able to absorb Goku's power? Or would it be a Yakon situation where Goku's sheer power would overload Parasite.
I wish parasite appeared in one of those Superman sequels in the DC universe or like joker ,lex luthor would have his own movie where parasite is the main antagonist.
What happened to superman's super hearing and super speed? He could have avoided a lot of grabs but chooses to remain stationary? So many of his abilities seems lost and forgotten, who wrote this shit? Hirohiko Araki?
Hope you make an update, I just finished season 8 of Smallville and Parasite was on it. He was only named dropped once and his powers were a little different.
You know, since he can absorb the powers and knowledge of everyone he touches, does that mean he is potentially one of the most powerful DC villains?
111 111 Possibly, although he's never been intelligent enough to become a true powerhouse. Plus, his boosts are only temporary.

@@user-unos111 I kinda want that as a storyline in a Superman comic now.
Parasite was definitely an underrated super villain and one of my favorite as well
Mine too!
Alex Mars it’s that purple suit ...
Yeah I think he deserves a bit more than what he’s given considering they’ve been around since nearly the very beginning
He’s OP
Agreed, Parasite, along with metallo and Darkseid, are the only ones who have ever been able to go toe to toe with Superman.
I'll be honest: while Parasite was never what you'd call a pretty boy, his incarnation in All Star Superman was particularly grotesque!
Knight of Arkronia oh he wasn't
SR Striker Oh?
Knight of Arkronia we never see him in human form much
The one in All Star Superman look like a amateur E T bootleg!
Omar Santiago really?
The All-Star Superman version is probably my favourite. Giving him a mouth like a leech looks unnerving as hell, but I think it really sells the idea of him actually being a parasite.
I like how they made him a janitor, cause that’s who he was in his original origin
He's just that dedicated to the job, you gotta respect a man like him
My favorite version of Parasite was from Justice League Unlimited. Just watching him easily rip through the JL members was scary.
True, is the most OP version
Fun Fact: in the Superman Animated Series and forward, Rudy Jones isn't wearing a suit. The chemicals burned his skin to look like that. He's fighting in the nude.
The white parts are a costume. The purple one, however, is skin.
If we put amazo in this fight against parasite.. What will happen..? Will they become ditto and use tranform endlessly..?

Parasite is my favorite Superman villian. Hopefully he will be put into a movie someday.
I agree.
في فيلم رجل الصلب ٣
SUPERMAN LEGACY SEQUEL MAYBE
I wish warner brothers would put Parasite in a movie. Just one movie.
Tao Jones T.jones you and me both
Tao Jones T.jones yeah I agree
Maybe do a Superman Thriller.
He’s on Supergirl
Tayo Jones agreed,he should've been the villain in *BvS* and not Doomsday
Parasite is set to appear in "Superman: Man of Tomorrow".
My favorite superman villain cause I wish I had his powers even though it's temporary

The parasite in all star superman in my opinion seems to be the best
One of the coolest but most unique DC villains I heard of.
Imagine if Parasite got a hold of Darkseid or Doomsday.
*DEATH*
They’d probably smack him away like a mosquito tbh
What about Smallville? He was in an episode of Smallville in season 8.
I know ,right?! They missed that version of Parasite!
What did he look like?
@@legen_dario he was human looking without the purple skin and I think really messed up hair
Imagine if he absorbs Joker’s insanity.
That would be interesting
joker's insanity isn't a superpower
@@hiranmaydas4921 exactly
Yet his ability is to absorb the parts of his adversaries so it would in turn make him a unpredictable power hungry parasitic prince of crime
Parasite has done that in the comics and he himself said it left him knocked out for a week
Who's here after seeing Parasite in _Superman: Man of Tomorrow_ ? I think that's my favourite version so far.
So that's who that dinosaur creature was.
@@christianparrish6647 lol
Superman: Parasite, *you've been a hungry boi*
If I'm not mistaken, the writer who created Parasite for the Superman comics back in the 60's was only 13 or 14 years old.
One of my all-time favorite villains with a great set of unique powers
Parasite not only absorbs superpowers but also lifeforce and memory of other making him a formidable foe
No doubt about it!
3:11 The Raymond Mawell Jensen version( the first one before Rudy Jones) for Young Justice is my favorite! :D
Honestly the live action parasite from supergirl was pretty damn good
Batman Beyond has a new Parasite than the original, using the same chemicals that transforms him into a new villain
He gives the term Energy Vampire a whole new Meaning
I honestly do not remember an episode of Justice league Unlimited where Parasite fought Metamorpho.
It the same episode where Superman fought Shazam
Wouldn't it be cool if Parasite was a villain in any of the live action Superman films and I wonder who would be the best actor for the role?
Holy crap I always knew parasite is one terrifying Superman villain
Your channel is about to blow up
I cant believe he became a janitor in one series is so disrespectful
When you think about it, there’s an alternate earth where he took over the world and no one can stop him because he absorbed everyone’s powers
Supergirl actually did Parasite quite well I am impressed tbh
Here an Idea for death battle parasite vs absorbing man
Underrated
My biggest dream was Christopher Reeve Superman fighting Parasite in a movie
You forgot the versions of The Parasite in Batman Beyond, Smallville and video games, Renash30! :D Update please!
The one you are referring to from Batman Beyond was actually on Justice League Unlimited not Batman Beyond.
@@trueblue6201 Still, his mutatedform was different and became giant suckling all that energy ,both thermal and organic alike!

Cool design too. And your profile picture is cool.
True *:000*
2:00 Did I miss something I’ve seen the whole Justice league Unlimited series I don’t remember that episode
This is the episode where Shazam fought Superman
Parasite vs absorbing man would be interesting.
Absorbing man can take power from any thing he touch. And parasite can take power from superheroes or pure energy like electric and fire.
So absorbing man can win?
One of My Favorite Videos 💯
Parasite: hehehoho I have absorbed Batmans superpowers!
Parasite: why do I feel sad and lonely? Damn...
Parasite: I should adopt some kids
Wait, if he can absorb everyone's powers and knowledge, is it possible for him to absorb personality and morals too? Because if it's possible, if it does stick, he'd be a great hero, too.
Not sure about those two but he does absorb the memories of people.
Ya in Superman Man of Tomorrow where he is the main villain he absorbs superman's power, weakness, and morals.
1:45 why does Grodd sound like the guy who works in the cubical next to mine?
3:36 he looks like the purple Swamp Thing
Parasite was a new character for the DC Comic Media “Animated or Live Action TV or Movie” starting in the 1990S. Hmm, was Parasite featured in the Comics way before he made a Media appearance on a Screen?
Late as heck answer but: Yes. Parasite's comic debut was back in the 60's.
Justice league action has the best design
Nah Superman TAS does
I agree with JL action.
Notice how metamorpho and batman are the only ones who weren’t shitstomped after 5 seconds.
He'll do what to Luthor?? 3:46
Give Luthor the time of his life lol

Metamorhpo
Action was the first time I saw parasite. And a cool design.
I wish parasite appeared in one of those Superman sequels in the DC universe or like joker ,lex luthor would have his own movie where parasite is the main antagonist.
Parasite literally has one of the best super powers ever he steals peoples super powers and uses them against there users pretty cool if you ask me
3:15 purple swamp thing?
Xtreme 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 but I still appreciate him for who he is!
“Looks like your still got some juice left in ya”
Now that's some weird ass thanos
So what would happen if parasite came into contact with Brainiac
the outro song 5:45 please
That first clip was how I was first introduced to Rudy as a young kid. It messed me up bad! 😂
Bruce Timm was a legend!
Does he have a mouth or not ?
What happened to superman's super hearing and super speed? He could have avoided a lot of grabs but chooses to remain stationary?
So many of his abilities seems lost and forgotten, who wrote this shit? Hirohiko Araki?
Couldn't he also just laser him into submission from a far distance ?
I think the latest incarnate looks the most unique.
Parasite got a weird evolution from guy with purple skin to mutanted leech monster
If amazo,arasite and metallo was the main villain of the bvs, it would've been good, or maybe in Mos 2 but stupid warner wants bvs
Hope you make an update, I just finished season 8 of Smallville and Parasite was on it. He was only named dropped once and his powers were a little different.
How does Batman always end up in all of these montages? 🤣

There was also a Parasite character in the 1960s Superman Cartoon Filmation series
parasite appeared in a Smallville episode as well
After taking all supergirl and Martian power he ran from bullets. ...why?????
الشرطه مرعبه
Parasite has once said that, based on his feedings on them, Wonder Woman has more power than Superman
No one mentions how the original VA, a classic character actor, died in a wreck and had to be replaced?
I find it funny hes a janitor in dc super hero girls
you forgot the one in the Justice unlimited the last episode the story of Batman beyond on flastback scene
My favorite Superman villain tbh :)
Now I want to see this guy fight ClayFace
Does the DCAU version even have teeth? Or are they supposed to be part of his flesh?
There was a show called DC superhero girls?Oh boy!
*_I wonder who'd win in a fight between him & Amazo??_*
Appropriate name! Is he a politician?
0:38 Let me taste your power!
0:58 Nah just one more taste.
Funny how in Superman TAS, Superman struggled against him but in JLU Shazam literally beat him in seconds.
His design in Justice League Action looks generic but I like his voice acting in that show But His Design In the All Star Superman is so Awful
