Throughout the five season of the CW's Flash tv show that we've had already, the show has gone through a lot of villains. Almost every new episode brings with it a villain for Barry and the team to fight, meaning a lot of the Flash's comic book Rogues have already been introduced along with quite a few z list characters and even villains belonging to other heroes like Firestorm's Killer Frost! Even so, there are a few Flash villains from the comics that haven't made it into the tv universe yet, and here are the top 10 villains I'm still waiting to have appear on The Flash.

10. The Eel
This is a villain from the comics who seems perfect for a villain of the week gig, and would most certainly be turned into a meta-human for an episode. In the comics he used a grease gun to make it impossible to be caught, but I can see the show making it so as a superpower he can do that to his skin and become one slippery foe for the Flash. This would also be a villain that realistically he cannot just run up and grab, making him a more dangerous foe.

9. The Changeling
This would be a very interesting character to see brought to live, as essentially it is a villainous form of Beast Boy. This character can morph into different animal species, meaning he can easily vanish from a fight by taking on a conspicuous appearance, or become something large and intense that Barry can't really fight like an Elephant. While the CGI budget for this character would be high, I think the payoff would be worth it.

8. Johnny Quick
The Flash seems to be on the back burner right now when it comes to speedster villains. We've gotten Reverse Flash appearances every so often, and Godspeed was a new one, but for the most part they're staying away from having more speedster villains after a loaded first three seasons. This is a speedster villain I think should get an appearance on the show at some point. The show has done an evil alternate earth already in season 2 and then again in the season 4 crossover, so I'm not sure quite how this character would be brought in with his classic Crime Syndicate affiliation. One interesting way could be to have him be another version of Harrison Wells, and he is the father of Jesse Quick, and could easily be turned into Johnny Quick.

7. Rose and Thorn
While we've had a villain with split personality a few times on the show now, another one wouldn't hurt and that would be the case with this character who has split personality. She has the ability to control plants which would be a cool, new, unique power that hasn't been on the show yet. It could also let the CGI artists test out their plant skills prior to bringing Poison Ivy to the screen if she's planned at all with the Batwoman tv show.

6. Razer
Another perfect candidate for villain of the week. This villain wears a suit containing lots of sharp blades; however, just like Eel I think that this villain would be ungraded to have knife based powers in whatever episode he slips into. It would be another case of Barry not being able to just run up and grab him, as he would be sharp as a razer.

5. Inertia
This is another speedster villain, and after Godspeed who we got, and Johnny Quick who is more of a Justice League villain, Inertia is the last big speedster villain not to appear on the show (unless I'm missing someone). He also goes by the name Kid Zoom, which sounds cool to me, and while he is a villain of Bart Allen who I can't see arriving soon after we had Nora, the show has given Barry the villains of other speedsters before (Like Zoom and Rival).

4. Cobalt Blue
Ever since Eddie died in season 1, there have been countless fan theories that point toward him being this character. I don't know if that will ever be the case, but I'd love to see Eddie on the show again, and this seems like a really cool villain to incorporate. After Bloodwork, this guy could be big bad potential when his switched at birth backstory is taken into account. His flaming, blue sword is also too epic to have around for just one episode.

3. Mob Rule
I love the power of self duplication, and this would be a Multiplex-esque villain with a similar power set meaning he's among my most wanted for villains. While in the comics he could only duplicate by cutting off limbs which regrew, I wonder if they show would tackle it the same way or if they would change things up?

2. Papercut
In the same month and year that Bloodwork, the villain of the next season, debuted in the comics we also got the villain Papercut. Armed with the power to control wood, and by extension paper, he was a new villain up against the Flash that I think would be a fun villain of the week for the team to go up against. I also love that in the comics he made a bunch of paper ninja stars and because of his ability was actually able to use them as throwing stars.

1. Turbine
Another New 52 introduced villain like Mob Rule, Papercut, Bloodwork, and Godspeed, Turbine has the ability to spin his body at incredible speeds. The version of Top that we got in the show was only capable of inducing vertigo in others, so this character could be an easy stand in for the later version of Top who could actually spin his body. That's Turbine's entire gig, and I think it would be a lot of fun to see for an episode, just like the powers of a lot of these villains!
