Underused villains?

Slade was OVERused throughout the series overall, IMO; Slade didn't have to be the villain of every single season arc, and I'm personally glad he wasn't. Shows that keep rehashing the same bad guy over and over again just gets old, IMO. he wasn't needed for season 5 because they were dealing with the Brotherhood of Evil, which didn't involve Slade. Slade already has legions and minions of his own, so he had no reason to ally himself with the Brotherhood. The same way Slade wasn't needed for season 3 because they were using Brother Blood.
 
There is a lot of villans on Kids Next Door that are under used IMO. They seem to be the main villian of one episode and only appear in the background.
 
Here's my favorite underused villains:

Cyberskull/Dr.Zigote(Mighty Max) - for those who haven't seen the show for awhile, they're not one-shot villains which they appeared the 2nd time.
Liquidator/Quackerjack/Tuskernini(Darkwing Duck)
Longhorn/Candle Jack(Freakazoid!)
the rat gang/Zoltar(EEK! the Cat)- one part was funny on my favorite ep.of EEK! when the rats were flying monkeys sent to capture Annabelle from those 2 bad catgirls.
Roderick & Rubella(Tiny Toon Adv.)
Peaches(Rocko's Modern Life)
Capt.Scurvey(Donkey Kong Country)
Amoeba Boys/Sedusa/Gangreen Gang(Powerpuff Girls)
Gill/Monkey Fist/Prof.Dementor(Kim Possible) - I wish Gill will make a 3rd return, since he's my favorite villain.
Dark Dragon(AD:Jake Long)
Terrance(South Park)- Mephisto's son mostly showed up in the backgrounds besides the science fair episode since I wish he would of have more major villain roles.
 
Taurus Bulba in "Darkwing Duck" was severly underused for such a significant villain (If it weren't for Bulba, Darkwing would never have met Gosalyn or Launchpad, plus, Darkwing defeating Bulba was pretty much his big break as a crimefighter). Of course, one of the reasons they didn't use the guy much could be that he always seemed much more dangerous and serious then all the other "Darkwing" villains, so maybe they didn't want to cheapen the character.

Still, I would have loved to see more of him.
 
I respectfully disagree with this. It was baroque enough that "To Heck and Back" even got one sequel ("Hef in a Handbasket"); really, what else could they do with Peaches? "Handbasket" gave that story closure, and it wouldn't be interesting seeing Peaches constantly coming back and trying to claim Heffer's soul again and again. That would've gotten old real fast.

Also, "Hef in a Handbasket" became one of the 'banned' Rocko episodes which stopped airing on the channel after a while (Nicktoons likewise stopped airing it after they became the commercial Nicktoons Network), so I doubt Joe would've even been permitted to do another Peaches short even if he wanted to.
