Flash is actually good now

>Flash is actually good now

Who would have thought the solution would be to simply match him up with Batman villains?

Flash rogue gallery are stronger but dumber.

Batman rogue gallery are Smarter but weaker.

Flashes Rogues are great but considering his powers, it does make more sense for him to fight villains who can outsmart him since any attempt to overpower him seems forced

Riddler's pretty Rogue-esque already, setting up elaborate death traps and distractions he can use to get away is his jam, he'd fit right into Central City. He'd drive the other Rogues nuts though, they'd probably find him a snobbish book nerd and his compulsion to leave clues incredibly unprofessional. He'd probably just dismiss them as small-minded peons and glorified bank robbers.

Are there any other villains in the DC Universe like the Riddler or Cluemaster... villains whose M.O. is to challenge the heroes' intellect and/or wit?

There's the Maestro who is literally the Riddler but with a musical motif, so he's already better than Cluemaster.

Sometimes Bane and Ra's Al Ghul

Yeah, but unlike Riddler and Cluemaster, they don't intentionally leave puzzles or clues.

What? That entire issue was trash. This entire arc is arguably worse than the last two.

Sounds like you just mixed the Trickster's gimmick with The Top's attitude.

another reason why Riddler's redundant as fuck in this book

Riddler is OK with killing, the Rogues aren't

The Rogues are okay with killing men. They don't do mass killings and do the "no women or children" thing.

>The Rogues are okay with killing men.
Nope

Killing civilians attracts Cops
Killing Cops attracts The Flash

When Cold inducted Owen into the crew he literally said you can kill but no women or children. And it wasn't the first time he said it.

This being written by the same guy who defined The Rogues' code.

I was thinking of Final Crisis: Rogues Revenge or something

Since a speedster's speed is relative, the fact that nygma managed to punch him implies that Barry stood around for hours waiting for the Riddler's punch to connect with his face. And that's funny.

100% this.

What the heck are you smoking, OP?

Barry is a nice guy. He lets his enemies take free shots at him, just to allow them to think they've accomplished something. Then he goes visit them in jail, sends them pen pal letters, and drinks with them at the local bar. Barry doesn't have enemies, except for Professor Zoom. He has frienemies, whom he beats up, puts them in jail for like a week, and forgets they escaped.

That page looks awful

>Barry's last story before Crisis on Infinite Earths was the Trial of the Flash
>Last story before Rebirth is Execution of the Flash

That's been the art style for a while, it's supposed to light, fun and cartoony

HYPERPOTTERY

It's better than the shit we got for the last three arcs!

The Zoom arc finished well

Just reread the issue and the Riddler's plan makes no freaking sense, because it requires him to think faster than it would take for the flash to incapacitate the droids. Even if he managed to fire, Flash could probably stop all the bullets in mid-air. And he doesn't even need to go ftl to do that. And even if he wasn't fast enough to stop all the bullets at the same time, there's no way that the riddler can monitor every corner of the city. Barry should be able to use his speed as soon as he got out of his sight.

>Light is always faster

It's not. The rogues have always understood this, and they have means to slow flash down in order to fight him. Nygma doesn't.

Btw has he ever tried to do anything like this with batman? cause it seems way out of his league.

what is rebirth

I'd imagine it's harder to pull shit like this in Gotham due to the various capes and gangs running around

Arrow, but then again...

>cause it seems way out of his league.

Riddler got a boost after the reboot. He's been all over the place causing havoc.

Is that drawn by the guy who does Morning Glories?

He's awful and I can't really look at those uncanny valley faces anymore.

bumping for the good bump

Bane, Calculator Trickster (???)

Bane only in his first story
