* Kang the Conqueror: awful pacing. Characters kinda pop up and disappear at random. The core characters are used well though.
* Magneto: Perfect short story. New and familiar characters. Great character development. Thematic cohesion. Visual writing.
* Loki: Good short story. Embodied Loki's contempt and motivations. Embraced the Norse mythology.
* The Ringmaster: Impressive. Highly visual. Filled with history, legacy, origin story, mystery, villain's tragic descent, and something approaching but not quite achieving redemption
* Dr. Doom: Disposable. Maybe this would have worked better as a visual comic book
* Mephisto: Slow start but makes up for it with a satisfying story arc
* The painter of a thousand perils: Good quick story that cuts to the essence of the character
* The Super-Skrull: Fight/chase scene is too drawn out. Weird abrupt ending. Ridiculous pulpy goodness though
* Venom and The Absorbing Man: This vigilante version of Venom is hardly a super villain but it’s still a good story. Fast paced with a decent plot
* Ultron: Ok. Not bad but somehow just not that compelling
* Nightmare: I typically abhor dream sequences. They have no stakes and, like real dreams, are only interesting to the teller. This one was kinda interesting since there did appear to be stakes. Still, the over the top surrealist how-random-can-I-be schtick got old fast
* D'Spayer: How can something this short be so rambling and meandering. I could hardly focus. The namesake of the story doesn't arrive until 3/4 into the story. My comment above (in Nightmare's story) about dream sequences being pointless definitely applies here. I still have no idea the point of this story.
* Carnage: a carnage story where scientific hubris thinks they can cure him of his homicidal sadism and a bunch of serial killers are set to be assembled ... what could go wrong? On one hand they squandered this premise. It should have been a fight scene worthy of an Arkham breakout. On the other hand, what they did proceed with was fascinating and unexpected.
* The Wizard and The Sandman: another not-a-super-villain story. Still this one was quick, fun, and to the point. Kinetic and at times creative
* Typhoid: waxes and wanes. The disorienting shifts are annoying but they make sense in context of this character. The story gets pretty good by the end
* The Trapster: How man of these are going to be ex-villains? Good 'trying to go straight' story. Still, I'd like to hear some real villain stories. The callback to a previous story in this anthology was a fun treat. One of the more engaging stories of the series and one of the only ones with actual pathos
* One of the road: intentionally mysterious so I'll not spoil it. It's a good 'sympathy for the devil' bit and is the perfect ending piece. Very well done

I would recommend this for the nuggets of gold and because it’s a long enough listen to keep you entertained. I just wish that there were more of the good ones. Honestly, superhero novelizations are suspect at best. So this is better than a lot of stuff you see available.
One more thing, there is very little superhero stuff here. If you’re hoping to listen in on your favorite superhero fighting is arch enemy, this isn’t that story. All stories are from the perspective of the super villain.
I did enjoy, just didn’t love it.
Some great, some good, some ehhh.
