10 Most Controversial Changes Made In Arrowverse Shows
10. Everything About Mirror Master And Top
Mirror Master and Top are two of The Flash's deadliest villains, so throughout much of the TV show's first two seasons, fans often wondered if they'd ever see them introduced. And four episodes into the third season, we finally got our answer.
However, while the pair have worked together in the comics as part of the Rogues, the Arrowverse significantly changed their relationship. Here, Top was gender-swapped as a female version of the character was introduced, and she and Mirror Master were lovers.
While some DC fans were outraged that The Flash would do such a thing (yawn), others took liberty with the way it was all handled. Now, those who followed the latter way of thinking actually have some grounds here, because while Ashley Rickards did a great job in the role, the version of the character (regardless of gender) was totally forgettable. And the same could be said about Mirror Master because, in spite of Grey Damon's strong performance, nothing about the character resembled the comics.
This writer certainly wouldn't mind seeing either actor return to the show, but it would be nice if they just had a bit more to work with next time.
