Very few supervillain names are actually intimidating unless we're going for the terribly literal.
"The Folded Man" is a villain name the same way that "The Joker", "Gorilla Grodd" or "The Green Goblin" are. It's the actions that will be associated with the name that garners the reputation.
It amuses me that the comics only just switched up the Flash's costume to match the TV show, and the TV show is about to change their Flash costume to look more like the (classic) comics.
Holy crap, how is Flash not instantly dead? If that's the bottom of the ocean, it'd be like getting flattened in all directions to the tune of a jillion psi.
I mean, maybe Speed Force and all (I don't mind), but it is something to point out.
I know he was there first, but Darryl being Caucasian just seems weird to me (I've watched more of the TV series than I have read Flash comics in quite some time)

Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
