  • DC Sandbox Villains?

    You know how once in awhile Juggernaut will fight Spiderman? Sometimes the Absorbing Man fights somebody other than the Hulk or Thor? Lately with the issues between Disney/Marvel and Fox in the animated cartoons a lot more villains are in a larger sandbox and being used more across the board. Batroc is the last person I expected to see on a Spiderman cartoon. Immediately followed by Trapster/Paste Pot Pete.

    The question I'm asking is what types of villains do you think could fight more than one hero in the DC Universe? Superman, Batman, and the Flash have plenty of rogues to go around.

    I think anybody that isn't a *main* enemy of the hero should be able to crossover. Characters like King Shark, Heatwave, Multiplex [though at one time he was the arch of Firestorm, just too good not to use], Venom junkies, Parasite, Firefly, Replicant, Punch and Jewelee [LOVED them in 'I Am Suicide'], Scarecrow, Lion Mane, Goldface, Tattooed Man, Livewire, Dr. Polaris, Neutron, Shadow Thief, Girder, Hummingbird, Maxwell Lord, Ragdoll, Council of Spiders [they NEED to return], Captain Boomerang, the Key, Bane, Shrapnel, Condiment King, General Eiling, rogue Atlantian criminals, the Silver Swan, Sabbac, and Neron would work I think.

    Any villain out there you'd really like to see go up against a different hero than the usual? I LOVE how during JL vs Suicide Squad we're seeing Aquaman vs Killer Croc. And how Bane was used in the Young Justice cartoon. I've wanted Capt. Atom to go up against Parasite ever since Kingdom Come and get a win. Could Replicant replicate Lantern tech on Earth? What if Dr. Crane/Scarecrow assumed a new identity and moved to Coast City, the 'city without fear'? Why haven't more criminals tried to assume a new alias and moved their operations?

    In vol. 3 I liked when Mongul popped in. I thought he was a good match outside of Superman.

      Since then he's mostly been used in Green Lantern, same with Cyborg Superman. But I loved it. Brainiac should be another one for the cosmic characters to deal with more often.

        Hawkman vs Man Bat. IDK why this hasn't happened yet. Or maybe... the Court of Owls has a splinter cell in St. Roch? Maybe Poison Ivy and the Atom butt heads when she tries to... get this... take over Ivy Town. It practically writes itself.

              I always liked Toyman (the bad guy, not the Asian anti-hero). He could fight anyone and I'd be interested. He could hit Coast City. Of course, it would've been easier pre-Rebirth because he would've just made yellow toys.

                  Now Coast City doesn't have a hero ATM. Could still be cool. I liked the look of the one from Super Friends.

                    It's true, but Toyman would only work earthbound. I suppose he could attack Seattle and Cruz and Baz have to deal with them.

                      I know he'd only work on Earth, I was alluding to the fact Coast City needs a hero. Could be Hal once he returns to Earth or another hero entirely. I wouldn't waist a city they worked so hard to bring back and make relevant again.

                        Coast City has the Coast Guard.

                            Edwards Air Force Base is more hardcore than the Coast Guard and its near Coast City. And they couldn't handle a single Manhunter android....

                            You mean to tell me every villain in or around Coast City just ups and vanishes while Hal's gone? The city should be in shambles.

                            If the villains ARE gone, where in the hell are they?

                              I'd suggest they're all chilling on that secret space station that Dr. Light went to during Identity Crisis, but I'm totally certain that place was reboot-wiped from existence.
