10 Essential DC Superheroes Not Yet Used In The DCEU

9. Mister Terrific

Mister Terrific has already appeared in live action in Arrow, but there's so much more potential to the character than that show let's on.

Terrific, real name Michael Holt, was first introduced in 1997 and quickly managed to carve out a reputation as one of the smartest figures in the world. He can learn and perfect pretty much anything he sets his mind to, is an expert combatant with the use of his T-Spheres (which also enables him to fly), a superb medic and tactician and, to top it all off, he can also remain invisible to all electronic detection.

Holt may not possess solo movie material, but he's one of those characters who could be parachuted into the League and form a part of a burgeoning dynamic with other, newer figures.

Whether it's the JLA or the JSA, Mister Terrific has long been considered an irreplaceable member of DC's super-teams. Having him appear on the big screen, then, should be something of a no-brainer.
