|
Rogues gallery is a term in comics referring to specific supervillain enemies, a hero or superhero repeatedly encounters rather than nameless thugs.
Colorful characters, often with an overarching theme or personal gimmicks, are especially contenders for being in a Rogues Gallery.
Heroes who have particularly well known rogues galleries include:
- Batman, see Enemies of Batman.
- The Silver Age Flash
- Spider-Man
- Superman
Dick Tracy is well known for his rogues gallery, although his enemies were typically killed off during their first appearances.
