Still thinking about Gal Gadot so here are some better comic book villains for cheap but not free.

Grintlebix, the Slaverer: A monster covered in mouths, and when he eats his victims, their mouths appear on his body. When his victims scream, the mouths that cover him scream in unison with them.
Orphed IV: A haunted song that kills whoever hears its final movement.
Astra Plaudit: An extradimensional traveler who can pass cleanly between second, third, and fourth dimensional space, and from the fourth can see an immense amount of the third dimension and touch the interiors of objects (and people) without being touched.
Fortune: A villain that cannot manipulate probability, but can innately sense the most likely outcome of any scenario. Interesting combatants include Scarlet Witch and Gambit. He essentially nullifies many of their powers' more cerebral effects.
Torque: An alien from a planet much more massive than our own who is capable of feats of enormous physical strength and yet completely incapable of grokking even simple human ideas.
Pustular: A central nervous system disease that gains intelligence as a collective the more neurons it infects. Eventually, it crowd-sources an incredible amount of brainpower and begins to enact increasingly complex plans for total pandemic.
Cherenkov: A scientist who creates unspeakably complex gadgets, like knives so sharp they effortlessly and exactly cut atoms' nuclei.

Anyway, all of these would be better than another dude with a sword or a gun. No offense to Ronin and Steppenwulf and all the beefy boys who hit each other with large, unseemly thuds. No offense to Stan Lee. I'm sure some of these have been done before, anyway. Not Grintlebix, but. You know what I mean.
