Oh, he is everything. And proved to be much more enduring than Peg-Leg Portia, who had a similar feel.Originally Posted by foxley
Another weird villain I love is the Bronze Age Terra-Man. The idea of an old west outlaw travelling through outer space on a winged horse just screams Silver Age goofiness, but he character was created in the 1970s (when spaghetti westerns were making it big in the US), so the idea has been welded to a bunch of hard sci-fi concepts like time dilation, and played really seriously. His dialogue is straight out of a western movie, and every time he urns up, the plot turns into western garnished with sci-fi accouterments like ray guns and kryptonite bullets and energy sapping tumbleweeds. I just love this guy. He is my absolute favourite member of Superman's rogues gallery.
