2. Bug-Eyed Bandit
Y'know, The Atom doesn't really have a great rogues gallery. It's weird, too; I always think of him as the third in the 50s DC trio, after Flash and Green Lantern, and they both have pretty good villains. But Atom has, like, Chronos. And that's it, as far as good ones go.
So let's talk about the Bug-Eyed Bandit. Bertram Laravan (god, these names somehow keep getting worse) designed a mechanical insect to act as pest control. But, needing money to keep funding his work, he turned to crime and stole it.
Y'know, Bertram, they have these things called "grants". You should maybe try applying for one or two of those before heading straight for Ivytown's Most Wanted list.
Eventually, Bertram and Batman villain the Ten-Eyed Man were killed by Shadow Demons during the Crisis. Writer Marv Wolfman did this because he "couldn't be part of a company that would print [those characters]".
Damn, Marv, harsh.
