In total contrast to the high-flying, fast-racing superpowered heroic duo Flash and Green Lantern, the next piece on the list is a non-powered villain operating so deeply in the shadows that no one is fully certain who he really is.
#9
The Holiday Killer (The Brave and the Bold, #021)
What, this little 43-pointer makes the list? YES. For such a low cost, he brings:
- Stealthed Outwit. That’s always a solid combo;
- High sharable AV (via his Batman Enemy TA). Even though he’s less vital now that wild cards can lend stats, it’s still welcome on him;
- 8 range. He’s not JUST a hidden support figure but a viable 2nd or 2rd attacker.
Sure, his dial is short, but hey…he’s only 43 points! He requires no extra feats to function well in Golden Age games.
Next piece is maddening.
A fine piece for the list. He’s simple and efficient. I have to ask though… why use him when Renee Montoya packs the same keyword and can choose between Outwit and Perplex?
A good question. The flippant answer is that AA Question was released in 2008 and this is a 2010 list.
The better answer is that for me, his far better offensive potential that benefits fellow Bat-Enemies and wildcards that carries the day. He also makes way more sense being on a villain team than she does.
