![]() ![]() Peek-a-Boo’s only crimes (so to speak) were being created so many decades after the really famous Rogues (Captain Cold, Heatwave, et. The Flash has one of the all-time great rogues galleries. So underrated, in fact, that I am genuinely upset about it. I don’t think she’d volunteer to go messing with Barry of her own accord…though I suppose they could be implying that Reverse Flash snatched her out of the future and that she becomes a nemesis to Barry later. It’s stated that Reverse Flash manipulated all of these Rogues into helping him, which makes sense, as Peek-a-Boo’s beef is with Wally, not Barry. Things are less cheery in the main universe: Peek-a-Boo’s most recent appearance was as part of the Legion of Zoom, a cadre of supervillains that Reverse Flash plucked from throughout the timestream for the express purpose of ruining the Flash/Barry Allen’s life. They even have a mutual crush on each other! Here, she is at best a playful rival for Wally/Kid Flash. On a brighter note, an angst-free version of Peek-a-Boo appeared in the disgustingly adorable Tiny Titans comic. ![]() From what the internet tells me, Shawna is less sympathetic than Lashawn - she was a petty criminal who busted her boyfriend out of jail - but again, I can’t be bothered to actually check. I’m sure I saw at least one of her appearances back when I still tolerated that show, but I’m not about to go back and look. I do think it’s interesting that she claims she “was going to be a hero.” Does she mean she was going to be a hero to her dad by saving his life, or did she plan to become a full-fledged superhero and help others after ensuring his survival? Anything Else?Ī character named Shawna Baez appeared on The CW’s The Flash. Not only does Peek-a-Boo get Linda medical help, she turns herself in immediately afterward. Peek-a-Boo is downright insulted that the Flash would assume that she, a former medical student and all-around ordinary person who was thrust against her will into a series of horrifying situations, wouldn’t help an injured innocent.
