Mirror Master is a supervillain in the DC Universe. He is a recurring foe of the Flash with considerable technical expertise and skills involving the use of mirrors. Four individuals have donned the guise of Mirror Master (with a couple being members of the Rogues at different times). In 2009, Mirror Master was ranked as IGN's 79th Greatest Comic Book Villain of All Time.〔(Mirror Master is number 79 ) IGN. Retrieved 10-05-09.〕 ==Sam Scudder== Sam Scudder was a simple convict, but had the goal to learn how to get inside the reflection of a mirror. Stumbling into a hall of mirrors, he experimented and discovered a way to get in his own reflection. He used this power to become the criminal Mirror Master, and was a frequent foe of The Flash. Scudder died around the same time as Barry Allen, alongside the Icicle during the ''Crisis on Infinite Earths''. Later, Captain Boomerang briefly assumed Scudder's identity, becoming the second Mirror Master. He used this as an alternate identity with which to commit crimes, thus not alerting his teammates in Suicide Squad to his extracurricular activities. Pre-Crisis, he studied mirrors after someone's reflection was held inside a mirror he was working on in the prison workshop. He then learned how to create creatures of light. In ''Blackest Night'' crossover, Sam Scudder has reanimated as an undead Black Lantern during the Blackest Night and is preparing an attack on The Rogues with the deceased members who are also reanimated.〔''Blackest Night: The Flash'' #1 (February 2010)〕 The Rogues visit Sam Scudder's old hideout and unveil a giant mirror with the words ''In Case of Flash: Break Glass''. It has been shown in several past incidents that something lives in the mirror universe that is deadly.〔''The Flash Secret Files and Origins 2010''〕 The Rogues learn that the giant mirror is actually a slow acting poison.〔''The Flash'' (vol. 3) #5 (September 2010)〕 ===The New 52=== In the new timeline of The New 52, Sam Scudder is the current Mirror Master. It's revealed that a year prior he, Captain Cold, Heatwave, and Weather Wizard underwent a procedure at an unknown facility that would merge them with their weapons, giving them superpowers. The procedure went awry, causing an explosion at the facility. Golden Glider, who was also at the facility, was caught in the explosion. The five were given superpowers but each in a twisted manner. Heat Wave gains pyrokinesis but at the cost of his body being burned, Weather Wizard becomes emotionally tied to his weather wand causing constant depression, Sam would be forever trapped in Mirror World, and Golden Glider becomes an astral projection of herself. It is implied that Sam is in a romantic relationship with her. The Rogues blame Captain Cold for this and have turned against him because of it.〔''The Flash Annual'' #1〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mirror Master」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
