At first I didn't get what was so great about him as a villain, just the villain with Barry's powers, but his various live action and animated appearances over the last decade (CW's Flash, that episode of Brave and the Bold, Flashpoint Paradox, LEGO The Flash), have definitely brought him up to Joker and Lex Luther level great bad guy.
"I always win Flash."
"Who's the Villain Now Flash? Who's the villain now!?"

Reverse Flash is the absolute last villain you would ever want for your archenemy. I mean the guy's one and only goal is to make Flash's life as miserable as possible and he absolutely has the power to do it! The thing I find really terrifying about Eobard is that won't even limit himself to screwing with Barry in the present. I mean the Joker is an evil and scary dude, but in the end of the day he's just a man and there are usually limits to what he can and cannot do. He can kill Jason Todd but he can't, for example, murder a young Alfred Pennyworth before he ever went to work for Thomas Wayne. Or he can go to the future after Barry is dead in order to taint his legacy like in the return of Barry Allen storyline. Or how he's manipulating Barry's future daughter in the tv show. Poor Flash is pretty much doomed to be tormented by his crazy yellow nemesis forever. Even killing him didn't work. He's a really unique and interesting threat when done right.
