Dreamslayer is the analog for Dormammu (the flaming head is a hint) and Deathbat was the last introduction as an analog to Green Goblin. I'm not sure if Brute was analog to Abomination, but that seems to be.
And for Galactos, the best reinvention ever will be Mr.Nebula.

In fact when they created the villains The Extremists the writers said that Dreamslayer was based on another enemy of Doctor Strange the Dream World Demon Nightmare the ones you mentioned I did not met . Now Mr.Nebula ??? Please a "planet stylist" ?!

Of course. One thing is to die, other is to live in an infernal and tacky  place. That is a worse torture. 

But from where did you get that information about Dreamslayer? I would like to check it. Visually Dreamslayer always has looked as a reminiscense of Dormammu, who is one of the big Marvel villians, a characteristic shared with the other analogs in the Extremists.

Oh please Mr. Nebula simply considered "completely fashion" the reality to which he was banished by the two Lords of the Order who were making fun of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby and he has no power to be compared to Galactus the The most he is is an effeminate cosmic who, having nothing better to do, transforms the planets into "gay night clubs planetars".

The Extremists are originally based on Universe Marvel villains: Lord Havok (Doctor Doom), Doctor Diehard (Magneto), Gorgon (Doctor Octopus), Dreamslayer (Nightmare) and Tracer (Sabretooth) they preferred to avoid using Dormammu because he would be too powerful an opponent to be beaten by Silver Sorceress.They later created Barracuda which was based on Attuma but to my knowledge there are no other Universe Marvel supervillain counterparts yet unveiled on Earth-8 other than those I quoted you.

To me Mr. Nebula is a great villian. And with the right writer even the most absurd character can be worked into something sublime. And really, it is not necesary than every character had to be a cardboard serious copy. Parodies algo are a welcome adition.

In fact Barracuda is a reinvention of a character who was the analog of Namor  (look,look! )and fought the Freedom Fighters of Earth X in the 70s. He was part of a team homage to the Invaders and his companions including analogs for Captain America (Americommando ) and Human Torch (Fireball ). So the name has pedigree. Check here .
I still have doubts about the analogy of Dreamslayer. The name can be related to Nightmare, but his appearance is to much a remind of Dormammu, including his flamming no-head and color clothes scheme. From where did you get the info?

Well to me Mr.Nebula is a effeminate cosmic that has nothing more than the power to redecorate and make "highly fashion" and "chic" the planets he redecorates that would not be able to kill even a cockroach with its power and would have very "gay" hysterical outbursts of rage if anyone somehow contradicted it that he can't even dare even be compared to Galactus and that Darkseid or the Anti-Monitor would send him to hell with a sneeze.Wanting to insist on comparing Mr. Nebula to Galactus is a huge childishness and naivete on your part.

I don't think that way. The Amerricommando and the characters you mentioned belong to "Meta Militia" a completely facist version of the Avengers.He abused his powers and alienated several powerful metahumans, who formed the Extremists. In truth, during a recording of his presidential speech, Americommando learns directly from his "superiors" that his succession to presidency was set up by his government and that he has always been manipulated since his "ascension" .When Monarch came to Earth-8 to recruit the Extremists, they refused him. As part of Monarch's revenge against them, he allied with Americommando and the Goal Militia for a final strike. They after the reality reboot that reset the Universe DC and created New Multiverse DC and its 52 worlds ceased to exist as did Barracuda and the The other members of Meta Militia and Earth-8 have had their reality altered as their main group of superheroes are the Retaliators who are all counterparts of the Avengers of Universe DC and there has never been an Americommando nor a Meta Militia. Look you can believe what you want but Dreamslayer is the counterpart of  villain Nightmare and not Dormammu just as you are mistakenly believing it to be. He is for example the Lord of his Universe's Dream Dimension just like the Marvel Comics villain Nightmare and not of any Universe DC counterpart  of the Dark Dimension and his own name "Dreamslayer" is an allusion to the fact that he is the counterpart of Universe DC of villain Nightmare not Dormammu.

Thanks. More post "52" (the series) but not New52 enough. I wonder how they would looks like under that aesthetic.
