DC’san honest-to-goodness company , even older than their greatest rival , Marvel Comics , and with that recollective history comes a whole gallery of iconic character . From the All - American fashion of Superman to the hilariously inept chronicle of Booster Gold , DC has a draw of kind in its stories .

Of course , not all characters are handle evenly . In particular , for every Black Adam or Lex Luthor , there are dozens of baddie who get beat and broken . Most of these villains do n’t spend too much meter in the limelight . However , some managed to outshine their five hundred - listing condition in big ways .

Mayfly

Mayfly is one of the most obscureWonder Womanvillains ever , and that is a shame . Her powers and abilities are very impressive for what is fundamentally a " henchwoman " assassin . Her causa gives her speed that is on par with the Flash ( when he ’s holding back , of course ) .   In addition to that speed , she ’s also an expert markswoman , able to tag the the like of the Flash and Wonder Woman .

In the Prime Earth continuity , Mayfly is also enhanced on the inherited horizontal surface , mean she does n’t even need her lawsuit to be effective . Her one weakness , however , is her bleeder’s disease . Despite that , she still got the jump on Wonder Woman and even begrudgingly take in her respect .

Cluemaster

Cluemaster may come off tomany Batman fans as a Riddler knockoff , and they should n’t be blamed for thinking so . After all , his entire twist is pretty much a less complex version of Riddler ’s M.O. Sure , he ’s right in a fight , but soldierlike artists are a dime bag a dozen in Gotham . Batman sure think so .

That sentiment is something that Batman pays for dearly . Cluemaster , using his supposed " D - listing position " to his vantage , smartly veil his true purpose , and is one of the few villains to genuinely outmaneuver the " World ’s Greatest Detective " by exploiting his arrogance . Being equate to the likes of Hush and The Riddler is no beggarly feat .

Major Force

Most people would be forgiven for not knowing this nefarious Captain Atom clone .   A U.S. military man turned into a being of pure light energy does n’t just invoke creative thinking . Still , being a ripoff of one of the League ’s heavy hitters still makes   him   a force to be reckoned with .

Major Force is tasked with abducting the like of Firestorm , a hero who is fully capable of leveling urban center . Not only that , but Firestorm is fast enough to treat over fifty nautical mile in fifteen minutes .   Major Force wield to catch up with him on pes . To top it off , he absorbsFirestorm ’s uncontrollable nuclear energyas he croak critical and only suffers minor damage to his costume from the event .

Weather Wizard

A fun part about the Flash ’s rogues gallery is they may all seem silly on the airfoil , and to an extent , they are . However , the only reason people get to make fun of them is that The Flash keep them in check . After all , think about how powerful or skilled one has to be to give the fastest man alive trouble .

This is particularly reliable in Weather Wizard ’s shell . Weather Wizard , as the name obviously implies , controls the weather . Considering a weather control is among the top member of Marvel ’s 10 - Men team , the fact that he ’s a " underage " villain for The Flash should tell readers how dangerous he is . A man that could put a city in eonian flash floods and electric storm is not a man to be trifled with .

Atomic Skull

Atomic Skull is one of DC ’s premier toilsome batsman whenvillains expect to be fighting Superman - tier opponent . His military posture is enough to merchandise blows with the Man of Steel and give the blows back in variety . His radiation , however , is what produce his risk grade to maximum .

Atomic Skull , being power by radioactive energy , is volatile enough to level entire urban center blocks with his top executive . His normal blasts melt through concrete as well , so even without expending himself , he is a major threat . While he does n’t have the smart to do his own schemes , he is a valuable asset in any nefarious conceiver ’s recruitment drive .

Angle Man

Avery queer and apart Wonder Woman baddie , Angle Man is just a " mastermind " thief with a very unknown prick . His gimmick , the reality - warping Angler , appropriate him to bend reality itself to his whim . The bending is abstract , as realism could mean space , perception , sound , or even soberness .

Most of the sentence , Angle Man uses the machine to go around security measure and avoid smash from bruisers like Wonder Woman . It is an incredibly knock-down instrument , and while Angle Man does use it well , think of how much more unsafe it would be in the hands of more malicious scoundrel . A world - stoop putz is no joke , even if the one exert it kind of is .

Phobia

Angela Hawkins was a typical aristocrat ’s girl until she gain the world power to pull out nightmares out of people ’s judgment . This ability to lie with citizenry ’s deepest concern and manifest them led to her becoming a cruel and harsh unseasoned cleaning woman . finally , her parents send her to a infirmary to be " fixed " .

Ironically , the isolation there drove her to develop her own phobia , autophobia , or the feeling of being alone . She connect the nefarious Brotherhood of Evil to take the nihility that was never render to her by her parents . Since her powers force citizenry to confront their worst fears , and without the need for concern petrol like Scarecrow , Phobia is a dangerous villain in her own rightfield .

Lady Blaze

Lady Blaze is n’t a known figure amongst mainstream mirthful fans , but that ’s likely her preference . She prefers to work from the phantasma and created menacing baddie such as Silver Banshee and Skyhook . She herself is a demon with unbelievable sorcerous powers .

Although conflicts with her are rare , as she tends towards subterfuge and infernal region politics , she successfully overthrew the leaders of Hell and manipulated the Demon Etrigan to be her thrall for a while . Her long history with the Shazam family could also intend she shows up in the DCEU sooner or later .

Psycho Pirate

Despite the ridiculous name , Psycho Pirate is the lynchpin for one of the DC Multiverse ’s great scourge . His chief power is the ability to not only control all emotion but drain it from those around him . This power intend his manipulations are far baser than the like of Grodd ’s intellect control .

Since his form of control is so subtle and " natural , " spotting his front is its own challenge . When combined with a genius such as Alexander Luthor ,   it lead to heroes move around on each other against their will . After all , Psycho Pirate is n’t technically " forcing " them to do thing . They ’re only play on desire they already had , whether they thought so or not .

Pied Piper

The Pied Piper is capable of controlling living things by using sonic frequencies , much like the Pied Piper of myth . In addition to that skillset , he can also adapt the sonic frequencies for more destructive design , match a normal Black Canary vociferation . Still , not even that is why he ’s so dangerous .

Inexplicably , in his brain , lies the Anti - Life equation . The intellect for his sonic emitter ’s effectualness is thanks to the equation ’s inherent big businessman . When unleashed , Pied Piper ’s powers become so great that he match the frequency of Apokolips itself , and put down it with a rendition of Queen ’s " The Show Must Go On . "   Wildy strong   does n’t even begin to key out that .
