Rogues...

Haven't done a thread in awhile but one i read earlier had me thinking. Who has the worst or saddest line-up of rogues? And to caveat whose gallery is the most underrated?

Wonder Woman has the worst rogues gallery, -especially- considering her status, in-universe and as a comics character.

Good answer. Didnt consider her. Although I do like Cheetah and Ares.

Hulks rogues gallery is pretty lackluster to me

Flash rogues 😘

I kinda like flash rogues. Yea they are a bit quirky but mirror master, cold, zoom are powerful when written right

I like Cheetah, too. Giganta, Silver Swan (Perez’s version at least, not sure she’s even still around), that sexually depraved midget who’s name escapes me (lets call him Dr. StiltmanFTW)...but outside that, and saying ‘the gods’, WW really doesnt have much going for her.

Underrated, i’m going w. Iron Man.

The Mandarin (his Lex Luthor, arguably), Fin Fang Foom, The Controller, AIM, Titanium Man/Crimson Dynamo (and by extension the Russian govt.), Obidiah/Zeke Stane, Madame Masque, Blizzard, Chemistro, The Dreadnoughts, Living Laser...and of course The Ghost, though niw everyone will think thats an Antman villain.

A lot of them need tweaking but the potential’s there.

I'll rule out some great ones here. Superman, Batman, Thor, X-Men, Spider-Man, Green Lantern, Fantastic Four, Legion

Let's look at some shittier ones.
Green Arrow, Daredevil (resident KMC bad boy Stilt Man for example), Giant Man, Wonder Woman

Underrated? Not sure yet. Maybe Thor.

Also this is a Wonder Woman rogue

Dont forget Paper-man...

...Mouse Man...

...Angle man...

...Blue Snowman...

...and Fireworks Man!

SHEESH!

Wonder Woman is awful

No, she’s great. Her rogues suck ASS!

Honestly though, Angle man at least, i could see being Mirror Master level if written correctly.
His Angle device opens spatial portals allowing him to warp through space. thats at least as powerful as MM’s shtick, if not more.

The last angle man was pretty cool, with a cool power.

I think Wonder Woman is cursed with having some real stinkers, but the core four, as in Cheetah, Giganta, Circe And Ares are a good quartet. They're visually distinctive, have interesting powers, and I think any of them, written well, would be really good.

Giant Man

I dunno, I mean, half of the Avengers came close to, or succeeded in going behind his back and banging his wife. There's some heavy hitters in there.

Green Lantern before Geoff Johns. Captain Atom, Firestorm (I mean slipknot?), Martian Manhunter.

HAHAHAHA!!!!

How come Woman Woman's power to suck things so hard it's like a vacuum cleaner has flown under the radar for so long?

I mean in terms of innuendo and smut.

Last writer that used some of those villains was Matt Fraction when he was writing Iron Man

I'm hoping Dan Slott does something with them, Already seen from issue 1 Fing Fang Foom had an appearance.

So did The Controller, so yeah, hopefully Slott will bring the love!

Also add Maxwell Lord as another great for Diana.

does cyborg even have a rogues gallery?
