It is interesting ( to those who find it interesting) that English lacks a form expressing diminishment of adjectives. We have comparative and superlative forms in which the meaning of an adjective is augmented e.g. small, smaller, smallest; but no "diminutive comparatives," e.g. "big, less big, least big." So depending upon the context, the antonym of "superlative" might be lowest, most inferior, worst and so forth.
