Take for instance Mad Hatter. I feel like theres a good bat villain there but his motivations/characteristics are just so inconsistent. What other characters come to mind and how would you fix them?

I think turning the Calendar Man into a guy who molts his skin kind of fits this.

Firefly, What is the point/draw of firefly. Has anyone made good use of him?
or he just one of those visually cool villains?
Personally I think making him a partner of Anarchy would be good. A second of command before Anarchy is revealed.
Give him a genuine spin on "burn everything, start again." Have the pyromania to the side.
Hell make Firefly a woman. Fuck it. A pissed off Lesbian.
Alot of Bat rogues need to more directly tied to the batfam divided out .
Penguin/Blackmask/Great White Shark/ Maxie Zeus all have interesting enough spins on the new mob boss idea but just trip over each other

Firefly is like a less interesting Heatwave. At least Mick is a high functioning arsonist
to be fair, I don't know what the fuck to do with Big Wheel either

I liked Brubaker's Black Mask...a sarcastic, sadistic weasel-person who overreaches and gets his ass kicked. It's a lot better than the typical "smug puppet-master" those characters generally end up as

>Maxie Zeus
Maxie needs power armour, big golden stuff that bulky stuff. Give it a purple cloak and a helmet like a greek opera mask. maybe give him a thunder staff as well.
Sentry is my main example, I mean - there was some hope with what Remender was doing, but they screwed up again.
Turn him into a supporting cosmic character in style of Surfer during Annihilation and shortly after. Kind of Deus es machina, but used scarcely enough to not get annoying.
