Part of the charm of Flash's villains is that they're all actually pretty cool despite having some of the worst loving names of any villains ever.

I hope they nail Captain Cold. Can't wait for all of the rogues to be introduced to start having them be the "Blue Collar Villain Troop".

The Rogues are very distinct from other villains because they're 1) Often more of a team than individuals, and 2) very affable and polite as far as supervillains go.

Yea I really dig the whole like 'old time badguy' thing they do with the Rogues, lots of poo poo around them having a code of honor and a proper way to do things and all. I have a feeling a lot of that's gonna get washed out in the show though.

This is also true, just saying they'll probably keep him as close to comic canon for Barry as possible since, despite being the blandest of that villain's incarnations, he's as close to "The Flash's Joker" as we'll get. Besides, I always thought Deathstroke was lame before Arrow fixed him up, maybe they'll give him the same.

Given how much they messed with Oliver's rogues gallery, I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled off something unexpected.

Because to be fair if you're a cop and a guy is saying that a magic light ball murdered his mom and now a zombie is shooting lightning at people you'd probably be pretty pissed when you're still cleaning corpses up.

Are you talking about Jesse Martin? Dude has probably been dealing with Barry's crackpot bullshit for years. He's clearly used to covering for Barry's gently caress-ups. This is a boiling point he's probably been building towards for years.

They sure as hell seem to be going in that direction (Arrow Season 3 spoilers):

With introducing Firestorm and the Atom.

Most superhero stories build up to that look over years for maximum impact. Gustin and Martin pulled it off in 30 minutes.

I really doubt they'd want to give Green Lantern to TV. They wouldn't even give Blue Beetle to TV.

I'm not a big Flash fan, are Wheelchair Guy and Handsome Cop eventual villains? They both seem unnecessarily sinister.
