Forgotten Villains you want to see revived?

[AnthonyO'Brien]

I read the collection of BK Vaughan bat stories the other week. It reprinted a short story of the Skeleton - whose secret identity was someone VERY close to Bruce Wayne and had a master scheme in the works...

The character was soon forgotten in favour of the Hush storyline and he looks a lot like Bat-manga character Lord Death mask. Maybe he deserves another shot....

WHO else should be revived?

Really the only one worth bringing back. The Mime!

A woman who was an heiress to a fire works fortune of all things she decided to rebel against her father by (Not drinking, not doing drugs) becoming a mime. But people did not like her act. So she of course steals the clappers from church bells, and goes after a rock band. Pretty lame villain but man did I love her. I dont really remember seeing her any where else.

Thanks! The Mime was a great one-hit wonder. Would love a silent issue on her...

Celia Kazantkakis and The Network. Not that she was amazing, but we could do with more villains that hate Bruce Wayne/Wayne Enterprises more than Batman.

The Crimesmith.

The original version was mostly just a gadget inventor in the Golden Age, while the Post-Crisis version was that plus’s a master-mind... with the implication that Batman and Gordon caught the patsy, while his “assistant” was the real deal.

I think making someone who creates “anti-Bat” gadgets is still a strong idea, but the idea of a many-times removed mastermind is always useful.

My head Canon has her leading the Court of Owls. She really fits it to a T

Boy, did you ask the $10,000 question!

Batman has about 750 villains...there are probably about between 50 and 100 that I would like to see revived. (Yeah, good luck with that.)

I'll post more later.

Quick, let's pitch this to DC!

I seconded the Mime.

Red Claw from Batman: TAS is due to be incorporated in regular DC Continuity already.

Faceless was pretty cool. He needs a comeback.

Who's the BTAS woman who wears a mask because she thinks she's ugly when she's actually still beautiful but she can't see it because she's psychologically traumatized after being abandoned as an aging actress?
