i was playing Arkham Asylum the other day and i was at the bit with poison ivy and i realised Mystique would make a much better batman villain than an x man villain. If only DC had thought of her first anyone agree???

No

That would be absurd.. No

No.

Mystique has developed because of her connections to the X-Men.  She'd be a vastly different character in the DCU.  So, 'no'.

" yeah but i think shes written quite poorly because shes tied with the mutants. "

I do not understand how you came to the conclusion that she would make a much better Batman villain. That just seems sort of random to me. What does she have in common with Poison Ivy outside of being a sexy female? I’m just not seeing any logic behind this. Not to mention Batman already has a metamorphic character in Clayface.    

I don't know, I think Mystique in the DCU/Gotham would be badass. Then again I think most Marvel Street Level villains would be cool in the DCU. Taskmaster is one that comes to mind.

I think most characters would be a lot better if they were freed from their ridiculously heavy histories.  Mystique would be so much better if they stopped trying to connect her to every mutant who ever lived... And stayed consistent with her character, instead of bouncing her around as evil, good, evil, good, evil, and all around again... "

"I couldn't agree more. I mean, isn't she the mother of Graydon Creed (Maybe that was something else. She did sleep with Sabretooth though)? As a mercenary/villain I've always liked Mystique.   Edit: Nevermind about Graydon Creed lol "

Batman already  has a "Mystique" in Jane Doe.

jane doe has done nothing.

I don't think Batman would be up to a fight with Mystique.  No offense to the Bat--he's still my favorite lead hero.

Mystique should be a Spider-Man villain. Pure and simple.
