2. The Rogues

Writer: Gail Simone
Artist: Sara Pichelli

Books centered around villains never last super long. They’re good, and they’re fun, but people just don’t stick with them (Harley Quinn comics notwithstanding).

But two books broke this trend: Suicide Squad and Secret Six. Secret Six writer Gail Simone should totally get on another villain team book. And boy, do I have a suggestion. The Flash Rogues have always been deeply great characters. They’ve supported a couple of miniseries on their own, but the classic Rogues aren’t really used much right now.

I guess it’s hard for writers to make them interesting as villains after decades of being torn between villains and anti-heroes. But spinning them off into their own book is an idea that could lead to some great comic booking. As for art, Sara Pichelli has been killing it over at Marvel, but I’d love to see her take on some of my all-time favorite villains.

Pichelli’s excellent at capturing facial expressions and “acting”, if you will, and that’s what you need for a Gail Simone book. Someone who can take a funny line and elevate it artistically is an underappreciated talent, and with these two creators, this comic would be as funny as it would be heartfelt.
