It's interesting that Captain Cold and Heatwave have made the leap from recurring villains on
The Flash to regular characters on
Legends of Tomorrow. I can understand their inclusion, as it adds to the mix of personalities and lends conflict to the core team. Wentworth Miller's overacting and chewing the scenery as Cold is almost at Jada Pinkett-Smith/Fish Mooney levels though, and he is a bit hard to take sometimes.
I love Wentworth Miller's Cold! He commits to the character and it shows. The entire LOT cast works great.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hear Fish is returning to Gotham. Yes!!!
"Flash mobs"...
ReplyDeleteGroooan.
^_^
Were there two Tricksters in the original image? Or am I seeing it wrong?

Yup there were two at the time in the Flash run.
ReplyDeleteOkay. Thanks. Great cover, as usual!

Now I want to see Barry take on the Sinister Six I always felt Flash and Spider-Man had awesome enemies as a kid. B
ReplyDeleteInteresting concept! It raises the question(s): did Barry and/or Wally finally make things too tough for them in Central City? Or did Kingpin lure them to "New Yawk" specifically to do in Spidey?
ReplyDeleteSpidey vs Flash's Rouges gallery? Nice. Might be cool to see the Flash take on the Sinister Six.
ReplyDelete@Martin Maenza: Absolutely! The four greatest rogues galleries in comics belong to Flash, Spider-Man, Batman, and Dick Tracy (not necessarily in that order).
ReplyDeleteHey, how about the X-Men's Rogue joining the Flash's Rogues? Or better yet, Rogue vs. Madame Rouge from the Doom Patrol?
ReplyDeleteThe ones he's got are fine but if Spidey had the Flash's rouges then THOSE would be some Amazing comic books.
ReplyDeleteFirst: "Flash Mobs" #BadPunNoCookie
ReplyDeleteSecond: I maintain that the Flash has the second most interesting cast of villains in the DC Universe.
Other: It just hit me that it might be interesting to see Spidey and Bats (who, I think, have gotten together at least a couple of times already on here) team up to fight Killer Croc and the Lizard.
Ross, we'll done. One of my faves thus far. I will echo the sentiments of others--Barry (or Wally) vs the Sinister Six seems like the natural follow-up to this tale.
ReplyDeleteI've mentioned this before on this site, but this cover and some of the discussion DEMANDS that I bring it up again. I've long had a fantasy story in mind in which several of the Spider-Foes decide to invade Gotham City only to be opposed not by Batman but by the Batfoes! For example:
ReplyDeleteKraven v. Catman
The Vulture v. Penguin
Mysterio V. The Riddler
Black Cat v. Catwoman
Doc Ock v. Mr. Freeze
Green Goblin v. The Joker
Kingpin v. Bane
I think that some of these characters might be dead, but that doesn't stop a guy from dreaming!
Captain Marvel also had a good rogues gallery in the Monster Society of Evil.
ReplyDeleteAlthough maybe "good"is not the right word.
DeleteI second Bob Buethe's future suggestion. If only because I get tired of all the so-called "dedicated fans" who constantly misspell each character's name in their on-line fan fiction!*
ReplyDelete*For example, Bob (if one of them had made the suggestion ahead of you): "How about Rouge of the X-men vs. Madame Rogue of the Doom Patrol?"

ReplyDeleteNot bad! But, a reunion between the Dillon Brothers (Max and Roscoe) would be better. Especially if it was Spidey visiting the Central City Flash!
