On the one hand, she has genuinely dangerous and uncontrollable powers (or she did at first). Peek-a-Boo absolutely has the capacity to become just as great as the more famous Rogues: not only does she have a distinctive (if somewhat dated - check out that thong strap) design, she has an epic origin story. These villains-come-lately don’t have the same cultural/nostalgic currency that the earlier Rogues have. al.) and debuting in the early 2000s, when DC seemed determined to make the entire Rogues Gallery as gross and grimdark as possible. Peek-a-Boo’s only crimes (so to speak) were being created so many decades after the really famous Rogues (Captain Cold, Heatwave, et. The Flash has one of the all-time great rogues galleries. So underrated, in fact, that I am genuinely upset about it. I don’t think she’d volunteer to go messing with Barry of her own accord…though I suppose they could be implying that Reverse Flash snatched her out of the future and that she becomes a nemesis to Barry later. It’s stated that Reverse Flash manipulated all of these Rogues into helping him, which makes sense, as Peek-a-Boo’s beef is with Wally, not Barry. Things are less cheery in the main universe: Peek-a-Boo’s most recent appearance was as part of the Legion of Zoom, a cadre of supervillains that Reverse Flash plucked from throughout the timestream for the express purpose of ruining the Flash/Barry Allen’s life. They even have a mutual crush on each other! Here, she is at best a playful rival for Wally/Kid Flash. On a brighter note, an angst-free version of Peek-a-Boo appeared in the disgustingly adorable Tiny Titans comic. From what the internet tells me, Shawna is less sympathetic than Lashawn - she was a petty criminal who busted her boyfriend out of jail - but again, I can’t be bothered to actually check. I’m sure I saw at least one of her appearances back when I still tolerated that show, but I’m not about to go back and look. I do think it’s interesting that she claims she “was going to be a hero.” Does she mean she was going to be a hero to her dad by saving his life, or did she plan to become a full-fledged superhero and help others after ensuring his survival? Anything Else?Ī character named Shawna Baez appeared on The CW’s The Flash.
Not only does Peek-a-Boo get Linda medical help, she turns herself in immediately afterward.
PEEK A BOO WHO SERIES
Peek-a-Boo is downright insulted that the Flash would assume that she, a former medical student and all-around ordinary person who was thrust against her will into a series of horrifying situations, wouldn’t help an injured innocent.
