Yeah, but propelling them out of the solar system just sounds like the kind of fake-ending that ends up with the super villain coming back stronger in a decade. Have we learnt nothing from science fiction? You have to destroy your foes whilst you can.

Man, I haven't thought of the Evil Overlord List in many, many years. Thanks for that.
The phantom zone ain't gonna cut it.
It blows my mind that this was cutting edge, jaw dropping graphics back in the day. A shape-shifting trapezoid with some panicked faces peeking out.
E. Nah now I'm thinking it's a one dimensional parallelegram.
That shit's laughable, but then there was Superman III and the trauma it caused:
That scene scared the shit out of me
What blows my mind is that I could right now recreate this in moments on a cheap, low-power microcontroller.
Which angel is that?
Imploding submarines are far more efficient
Okay when the options are throwing a football down field or up field, the option to hit a softball with a sledgehammer isn't helpful.
They can still come back from another parallel reality or some such - villains are like cats, they always come back (unless they are bored and then they don't).
Going easy on traitors is how Germany gave us WWII.

...right?
Sun's bad then too. Don't want them Voyage Homeing their way into the past

To the depths of Jupiter, then.
