Linda Park
[edit]Linda Park (also known as Linda Park-West) is a fictional character in the DC Universe. She is best known as the girlfriend and later wife of Wally West. Linda Park first appeared in The Flash (vol. 2) #28 and was created by William Messner-Loebs.[2]
She is a Korean-American television reporter for Keystone City and regularly deals with the Flash, whom she does not like. During their initial meeting she constantly hounds the Flash about the recent thousands of dollars of property damage caused by his battle with the Porcupine Man. Despite this, Linda and Wally became friends on her first job for Keystone City's KFMB Channel 4, when they team up to investigate the Celestial Enlightenment Ranch, a spiritual-retreat scam. After Wally helps Linda deal with her apparent possession by the spirit of an 800-year-old Irish bard named Seamus O’Relkig, they become close and soon begin dating. The Flash's love for Linda has brought him back many times from the Speed Force. After many obstacles—such as Wally nearly being killed by the Black Flash and Linda being abducted and all memory of her erased by Abra Kadabra (the last requiring the aid of an alternate version of Wally to return home and convince Kadabra to reverse the spell)—they marry.[3] She eventually became one of the hosts of the television program The Scene, which is similar to the (real life) program The View. Her co-hosts included Vicki Vale, Tawny Young, and Lia Briggs. Two episodes were shown in which they interviewed Wonder Woman on her career, which was shown in that title comic.[4][5] Shortly after the Wests moved into a new apartment after their old house was destroyed by Magenta, Linda left her journalism career, her relationship with Wally having made her unable to reconcile the public's right to know against the superheroes’ chance to resolve a situation before people started to panic, instead studying medicine with the intent of becoming a pediatrician. Linda soon became pregnant with twins, but during the early months of her pregnancy she was attacked by Zoom, which caused her to miscarry the twins.[2] After Zoom was defeated, Wally asked the Spectre (whose host at the time was Wally's longtime friend Hal Jordan) to remove knowledge of the Flash's identity from everyone's memories, but Jordan's increasing lack of control of the Spectre meant that even Wally and Linda forgot who the Flash was.[2] After she remembered, Linda left to rethink her life. She returned to Wally after taking some time away. A later battle between Zoom and the Flash spontaneously restored her pregnancy when Zoom and the Flash travelled back in time to their original battle, Zoom unintentionally taking the brunt of the sonic boom generated by his past self and thus protecting Linda from the worst of the attack, and she gave birth to the twins upon Wally's return to the future.[2][6] In Infinite Crisis #4, a battle with Superboy-Prime caused Wally to disappear. He appeared in front of Linda, telling her he is disappearing. Holding the twins, Linda kissed Wally as they disappeared. It was later revealed by Bart Allen, returned by the Speed Force, that Linda is still alive, albeit in an alternate reality living in its version of Keystone City where time flows apparently faster (as shown by Bart reappearing in IC #5, where from his point of view, four years had passed). There, she is raising her twins with her husband. Recently, seven members of the Pre-Crisis Legion of Super-Heroes were discovered in the 21st Century by the Justice League of America. The seven Legionaries were sent back in time on a secret mission, in which they were to use seven lightning rods, which would be struck by lightning, killing one member and resurrecting another. The Legion was successful in their mission, and surprisingly all seven Legionaries survived. However, there was an unexpected bonus. Wally, Linda, and the twins managed to 'ride' the lightning bolt and return to their homeworld, alive and well. In All Flash #1, the names of the West twins are revealed to be Iris and Jai. In The Flash (vol. 2) #231, it is revealed that, from three months into their "exile", the West family had been living on an alien planet that had previously been saved by the Flash. Linda has extended her medical knowledge with the advanced science of the aliens, thereby gaining the skills necessary to stabilize the speed-related powers of their children. In "The Flash: Rebirth" miniseries, Linda has apparently returned to her journalist career, as she reports on the festivities in honor of the return of Barry Allen. Linda and her children are part of a resistance operating out of the 'Hall of Justice' during the events of "Final Crisis".[7]
In "The New Golden Age", Linda is among those who attended a party held by the Flash family.[8]

Peek-a-Boo
[edit]Peek-a-Boo (Lashawn Baez) is a DC Comics supervillain. She first appeared in The Flash (vol. 2) #180 (January 2002), and was created by Geoff Johns and Scott Kolins.[13]
Lashawn Baez was a graduate student at Central City Medical School, but put her studies aside to help her father Tomas when he got ill, requiring a kidney transplant. Lashawn tried to donate hers, but the procedure activated her latent metagene, granting her teleportation powers, leaving her unable to donate her own organ because of her powers whenever she was touched.
As Peek-a-Boo, she snuck into Central City Hospital to steal a kidney, but accidentally destroyed a lab due to her unstable powers. The doctor grabbed her arm, which caused an implosion where she disappeared, nearly killing the surprised surgeon. The Flash and Cyborg intervened and defeated her with a wall of white sound generated by Cyborg's arm, coupled with disorientation from being teleported hundreds of times a second when the Flash deliberately triggered her powers. The Flash later returned the kidney to the hospital and Lashawn was convinced and sent to Iron Heights.[13]
When Gorilla Grodd attacked Iron Heights, Peek-a-Boo was able to escape along with many other Rogues. She went to the hospital to check on her father. Tomas Baez' doctors had been able to find a new kidney in time, but his ailing body rejected it and her father died. When the Flash came to the hospital, Lashawn, in grief and embittered by her incarceration, revealed to him that she wanted to be a hero like him whom she had idolised, but now considered him as an enemy. However, she later saved the life of the Flash's wife Linda Park when she was injured in a fight between them. Lashawn then turned herself in to the police believing she had nothing left to live for and remained in custody.[14]

Neptune Perkins is a superhero in the DC Universe.
The character, created by Gardner Fox and Joe Kubert, first appeared in Flash Comics #66 (August 1945).[16] That and a follow-up story in 1947 were the character's only appearances, until Roy Thomas revived him for an All-Star Squadron story in 1984 and later selected him as one of the focal characters of Young All-Stars in 1987.[17] In addition, Thomas expanded the character's backstory and origin so that it incorporated large chunks of The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket by Edgar Allan Poe and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas by Jules Verne.
Within the context of the stories, Neptune Perkins is a mutant born with attributes that lend themselves to living at sea. During World War II he works with the All-Star Squadron. After the war he weds Miya Shimada, though this relationship becomes strained in part by his being unaware that he is not the father of their daughter, Debbie. In more recent years, he has acted as a governmental contact for Aquaman and Young Justice after being elected to the United States Senate and was even a member of Old Justice. He is killed in Infinite Crisis #3 when the Shark and King Shark together attack and partially devour him during an undersea battle.

Derek Powers is a corrupt businessman who gains control over Wayne Enterprises after merging it with his own company Powers Technologies as Wayne-Powers after Bruce Wayne retires. He is the one who inadvertently sets a young man named Terry McGinnis on the path to being Batman. Powers had developed a lethal mutagenic nerve gas and intends to sell it as a weapon. One of his employees, Terry's father Warren, obtains evidence concerning this plan, for which Powers kills him. With this knowledge, Terry steals Bruce's Batsuit and becomes Batman to stop Powers' plans. During their battle, Powers is exposed to the gas and subjects himself to extreme levels of radiation to save his life, which interacts with the gas and causes his body to become radioactive and translucent. However, he hides this and contains his radiation with artificial skins that disintegrate over time. Eventually, he retires from leading his company to focus on finding a cure, appointing his estranged son Paxton as his replacement. However, Paxton betrays his father by publicly exposing his condition. Subsequently, Derek hides in an abandoned nuclear submarine and is presumed dead after battling Batman.[28]

Pozhar (Пожар or "Fire") is a Russian superhero in the DC Universe. The character, created by John Ostrander and Joe Brozowski, first appeared in The Fury of Firestorm (vol. 2) #62 (August 1987).[36] Within the stories' context, Mikhail Arkadin is a nuclear technician who worked at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, and during the meltdown that occurred there, he gained the ability to convert matter into energy. He was subsequently recruited by Major Zastrow of the Red Shadow as one of the Soviet Union's official superheroes.[37][38] However, he was forced to wear a containment suit to prevent himself from destroying everything he touched.[38] The Russian government then maneuvered him into position to be one of its premier heroes, placing him into a battle against the original Firestorm, who was then calling for complete nuclear disarmament.[38]
During their battle, Firestorm and Pozhar were fused together after a nuclear weapon was dropped on them. Eventually, they are separated and removed from the Firestorm Matrix so that Martin Stein alone could bear the powers and serve as the Fire Elemental.
The "In My Father's House" storyline reveals that Mikhail is, in fact, once again in control of his former abilities. He was re-powered by a nuclear test gone wrong in Russia. He was going by the name of Firestorm for a time despite now knowing that Firestorm was made up of Martin and Jason Rusch at the time, but he has now changed his super identity back to Pozhar.[39][40]
In "The New 52" reboot of the DC Comics universe, Arkadin helped Stein invent the Firestorm Protocols.[41][42]
In the "Watchmen" sequel "Doomsday Clock", Pozhar appears as a member of the People's Heroes and closes Russia's borders to all foreigners, be they metahuman or not.

Prankster
[edit]Preus
[edit]Preus is a fictional DC Comics supervillain who first appeared in Adventures of Superman #625 (April 2004) and was created by Joe Kelly and Talent Caldwell as part of their "Godfall" arc.[43]
For years, Sergeant Preus had proudly served the Citizen's Patrol Corps, a police force that kept the peace in Kandor under the Kryptonian banner of El, their "creator".[43] Due to the compression of time, more than a century had passed inside the bottle city (compared to only a handful of years outside it) during which Preus and his fellow Kandorians had come to worship "The Superman" as their "god in heaven" above. The Corpsman was also a devout xenophobe, who dispensed justice against "non-K" (Kryptonian) dissidents that threatened their way of life, especially a citizen named Kal-El, who forever tainted Paradise when he seemingly murdered several Kandorians.[44]
Preus swore a solemn oath to make the murderer pay, not realizing that Kal-El was actually the Superman that he and the others had worshiped for so long.[45] He was also unaware that the "victims" were constructs created by an alien telepath, Lyla, who had brainwashed Kal-El into believing that Kandor was a never-exploded Krypton.[46] Eventually shattering the illusion, Superman escaped Kandor and confronted Lyla back in Metropolis. Preus followed them, but exposure to Earth's air and yellow sun drastically affected him, giving him strange, new powers equal to Superman's while amplifying his already-unbalanced racist views.[47]
Convinced that Kal-El had defiled the legacy of "The Superman", Preus swore to assume that responsibility himself and that all of the impure would die by his hand. His xenophobia led him to a group of white supremacists in the American desert, who he forced into worshiping him and his views. However, in time, the people of "God's Peake" (as the camp was called) came to worship Preus as their cult leader. His increasing prominence eventually led both the Martian Manhunter and Jimmy Olsen to investigate, only to have both of them captured by Preus and his men.[48]
This forced a confrontation with Superman, who, at the time, was dealing with the effects of Gog's synthetic yellow kryptonite, which had significantly aged and weakened Superman in a short period of time. So weakened, Superman was barely able to deal with Preus' legions alone and quickly found himself outclassed by the (at the time) much more vital Preus.[49]
A last-ditch gambit using kryptonite to try and weaken Preus failed, as Preus revealed a previously unknown resistance to kryptonite. He was finally defeated when Superman attacked and destroyed a key portion of Preus' armor, rendering him unconscious. Afterwards, Preus was injured from that attack and had to be hospitalized. His current whereabouts are unknown. He was last seen as a weakened Superman tried to fly him to S.T.A.R. Labs for treatment. Preus disappeared after Superman was engaged by an army of Gogs.[50]
Powers and abilities of Preus
[edit]Preus possesses powers similar to those of Superman, such as superhuman strength and speed, flight, invulnerability, X-ray vision and enhanced senses. Unlike Superman, Preus can fire beams of black energy from his eyes that strike a target with intense heat and force. Preus also does not share Superman's vulnerability to kryptonite.

After being defeated by Green Lantern, he started a new life as a scientist for Dayton Industries. However, when the company developed the self-generating power source known as Promethium, the temptation was too much for him.[57] Through his robot puppets, the Puppeteer took control of Cyborg, Kid Flash, Starfire, and Wonder Girl and turned them against their teammates. Raven's soul-self was finally able to break their trance and the Titans united to battle the Puppeteer and his toy robotic army. When the villain was defeated, the H.I.V.E. attempted to destroy him for his failure, but the Puppeteer escaped.[58]

The Puzzler is a name used by three supervillains in the DC Universe.[63]
First version
[edit]The concept and original character, created by Jerry Siegel and John Sikela, first appeared in Action Comics #49 (June 1942).[64]
The original Puzzler is an unnamed non-costumed criminal who is skilled in parlor games and puzzles and operates a protection racket in Metropolis.[65] The character, along with most of the Golden Age Superman material, was later assigned to the universe of Earth-Two in the DC Multiverse, before being removed from continuity during Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Second version
[edit]The name of the Puzzler was reused in Superman (vol. 2) #187 (December 2002) as the supervillain identity of Valerie van Haaften, a new version of the character whose body was composed of living "puzzle pieces". In the first appearance, as "Puzzler", she admits that she is a large fan of Superman's, and initially attempted to join several super groups to no avail. Thus, she decided that she would become a villain to gain his attention. Her body is composed of multiple large "puzzle pieces" that she can fully control, even when they are not directly attached to her. Superman disperses her with his super breath.[66]
The Puzzler reappeared in Superman: Up, Up and Away! during the One Year Later story arc as an assassin hired by Intergang to kill Clark Kent. When she sees Superman, she decides to attempt to kill him instead to become famous. During the fight, she reveals she has been "upgraded" to have pieces that are nearly indestructible. Her "puzzle pieces" are much smaller and appear to be able to hit with greater force than her previous appearance. Superman defeats her again by trapping her component pieces in separate containers - preventing her from building up sufficient speed to escape.[67]
Third version
[edit]In September 2011, The New 52 rebooted DC's continuity. In this new timeline, a new character called the Puzzler under an alias of "Agent Evans" appears as a member of A.R.G.U.S.[68] He is later revealed to be a descendant of Vandal Savage.
Puzzler in other media
[edit]- The Puzzler appears in the Batman consecutive episodes "The Puzzles Are Coming" and "The Duo Is Slumming", portrayed by Maurice Evans. Originally, the episodes were going to feature the Riddler (portrayed by Frank Gorshin) and were titled "A Penny for Your Riddles" and "They're Worth a Lot More", but this was prevented by Gorshin being in the midst of a contract dispute with the series' producers as he no longer wanted to portray the character.[69]
- An unidentified incarnation of the Puzzler makes non-speaking cameo appearances in Justice League Unlimited as a member of Gorilla Grodd's Secret Society.
Professor Pyg
[edit]Son of Pyg
[edit]Son of Pyg is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics.
