Mr. Terrific
Character » Mr. Terrific appears in 926 issues.
Michael Holt aka Mr. Terrific is the 3rd smartest man alive. Mr. Terrific embodies his Golden Age predecessor's slogan of "Fair Play", and is currently the leader of his own team, the Terrifics.
Mr. Terrific should be DC's Mr. Fantastic
I kow they havent really said anything besides that he is still the worlds 3rd smartest man but i would like to see him be the Reed Richards of the DCU. It's always kind of been hinted at that Bruce Wayne and Lex Luthor are the only two men smarter than Michael Holt and their roles are very defind already even as the DCnU has yet to come out. We know Bruce will be batman and Lex will ultimately be Superman's main event Villain (whether they have said so or not). We know what Mr. Terrific is going to look like and we know he still has his T spheres. He just seems like the best choice for the position. He is the most undefined character of the 3 with the least tying him down.
I am excited for his solo book and hope they can do some great things with him. If not DC's Mr. Fantastic but at least DC's Black Panther. Not as flashy as the big guns but ready for just about anything....though I prefer the T mask to the M mask. At least he's got the T on his chest.
YES!! he should be!! however he shouldn't be like Mr.Fantastic, just get the amount of respect Reed gets, i want the justice league to have to go to him when they can't figure something out, i want him to really show just how smart he is, have organizations like CADMUS or R.E.B.E.L go to him to explain the unexplainable, hopefully they'll do this in his new series, he definitely needs to get some more credit
on a side note, i actually don't think Bruce and Lex are the smartest, to me it's been
1. Oracle
2. Batman
3. Mr. Terrific
4. Lex Luthor
5. T.O Morrow
hopefully eric wallace gets better with mister terrific because he has got mixed reviews on the first issue. also they need yo keep the artwork at a good pace and make the characters look good.
I think he is more closer to Luke Cage then Mr. Fantastic.
