Judge Death
His story is a pretty mess up even for a comic book villain. He had a rough child hood doing some truly unpleasant stuff. Eventually he became a judge, he found an unusual area where he died yet still within the living world at the same time. He revealed the method to his closest friends who also are judges. Judge Death kills the people at the top of the Judges.
Following that, most laws got removed. In their place was just one law being alive. Which meant just being alive you are breaking the law, crazy logic I know. So the dark judges killed all life in their world. They eventually found a way into Judge Dredd's universe. There, these judges caused all kinds of Hell. It is safe to say Judge Death for a few reasons can be considered as Judge Dredd's arch enemy.
Judge Dredd doesn't actually like hurting people, he knows sometimes he can't be helped. In vice versa, Judge Death is all about killing people. Also, most of Dredd's enemies are killed off. Unfortunately, Judge Dredd with his dark judges death wasn't a possibility. The dark judges are also more supernatural than most of his enemies too.
Judge Death is trying to enforce his own law. Just in case, you didn't notice that same law is virtually allowing him to kill people. Even when it's not justified, which could lead him to getting judged by those running the judges. This guy is responsible for a lot of deaths. Most likely, the scariest person Judge Dredd ever met in his existence outside crossovers.
Not only that, Judge Death has a very unsetting appearance too. Which may or may not partly inspired Batman Who Laughs' appearance. Let's be honest, look at both characters side by side. They do appear to look strangely similar to each other just saying. Judge Death no longer bounded by death itself greatly limits what Dredd can do to stop the dark judges.
If this isn't already putting chills down your spines. Don't worry, I got more to tell here. Judge Death has a very similar personality to that of Carnage. In a sense, they're a more twisted version of a comic book hero. Judge Dredd & Spider-Man respectively. Both are widely known for a huge body count. Not only that, for both heroes they're incredibly difficult to defeat on their own too.
I also need to mention two witches helped made this possible. The same witches also helped getting them into another universe. They also helped getting the dark judges out of hell before. You know someone that evil just escaped hell itself, you got something truly bad awaiting anyone in his path. Honestly, I felt he's a candidate for one of the absolute scariest comic book villains in existence along with The Scarecrow from DC comics.
