ok... the knowledge that clayface is a mimic is pretty widespread as far as I'm aware as is the fact that he is indeed made of clay.... Even failing to know some specific and obscure weakness I can generally surmise how something made of clay is going to react to heat or water so.... yeah unless you want to call Frank a complete moron and that he wouldn't be able to figure out a way to either bake the clay or find a way to saturate him with enough water to make him a non issue I'm not seeing your point.
Also as I said for the most part he doesn't fight these guys H2H. Knowing the guards are dead or even if they weren't and were simply in control of the place Frank would still plant explosives all around Arkham and just detonate it rather than mucking about getting bogged down in the inmates games. He then procedes to gun everyone down. I don't see very many of batmans rogues gallery walking away from an exploding Arkham. Probably Crock, Bane and Clayface but Clay is going to get out of the rubble long before crock or Bane.
I see Frank dealing with Clayface with incendiary grenades or luring him to the water supply for the facility. I'd say Crock gets out next but his heads gonna be aching and like I said about 60 rounds of aimed Armor piercing fire without stormtrooper effect from Frank will probably put him down. Bane gets unloaded on as well.

You do realize Clayface isn't actually made out of normal clay, but a clay-like substance that may or may not have all the normal weaknesses of clay.
Yeah but still I'm under the assumption that Frank is going to realize he's dealing with a relatively large group of metas and isn't going to be an idiot and charge headlong into it. The others have a tendency to do that as up until shadowland they all were pretty much goody goody two shoes heroes for the most part. Frank isn't about to fight fair when the deck is stacked against him like this.

@ Mindset....really?Out of all his appearances I'd say that's far from standard procedure...Remember this is what the character would do, not what you would have him do.
Also if I wanted to be a real jerk I'd ask for scans or issue numbers, but I trust you and I'll take your word for it.
Frank bombing Arkham from a distance fits his MO.
