A few of the Underrated Elite:

  • Metamorpho
  • Any and all WildStorm heroes
  • Jessica Cruz
  • Yara Flor
  • Lucius Fox (yeah, he’s not a “superhero” in the traditional sense, but he has had an impact on Batman and his world to a large extent, thus making him a non-costumed hero)
  • Hitman
  • The Bart Allen Flash (I don’t care what anyone says, The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive was a pretty darn solid book)
  • Vibe
  • Snapper Carr
  • Chase Meridian (she’s a hero to me :wink:)

Impulse and the Post-Infinite Crisis Blue Beetle series are indeed good and grand.

To shine a bit more light on Metamorpho, this is one of my fav stand-alone gigs of his:

Outsiders with

Very well done

He has a very varied powerset

He is DC’s Thing.

He is always a member
With

Dude…imagine a Trinity series that starred Jess, Metamorpho and Raven…Great Rao, that’d be a book and then some, I bet.

As for why those three are a Trinity? Well, inquisitive minds would just have to read the book and find out. :wink:

Agree with all of these, especially Frankenstein and RM as those were two of the more underrated New 52 wave 1 titles (with RM’s original series also being underrated).

I’ll put a vote in the “Underrated Teams” bucket for the New 52 Blackhawks. I loved that series, and would very much like to see the team come back on a consistent basis.

There was a time I would have said the Doom Patrol, but I think the TV show has rectified that. I would also include Hawkman, Hawkgirl, the Silver Age Atom, Metamorpho, and Jessica Cruz as underrated, as well as the Milestone heroes, Icon, Static, and Hardware.
