Characters You Hope Appear

Since this is becoming a series now, feels like a good time to talk about characters from previous incarnations you hope make an appearance at some point.

Though until we know more about details with litigation, characters from the cartoon show are off limits. Though we still have plenty to choose from the comics and 2001 sitcom.

I'm gonna start by saying I'd like to see Barry, Paul the Samurai, Chainsaw Vigilante, and the Man Eating Cow. And since we have the Terror, may as well throw in some of Evileers while we're at it.

One thing I keep thinking about is how in the pilot a gang war was mentioned...and what if one of the leaders is Chairface? Who better to be a rivals to the Terror?
Though I'll admit it's very doubtful since I have a hard time seeing him in Live Action, and I doubt he'd fit in this version's grounded, street level take on the Tickverse...
(Strangely enough, I can see his oddball henchmen appearing )

And while Die Fladermaus/Batmanuel and American Maid/Captain Liberty are iffy, one has to wonder if similar characters will appear since they're so popular & important  (the Flying Rodent and Lady Justice perhaps?)

I've only seen the TV series so I can't say any suggestions then :()(

I figure they might not have any DC parodies, either because of litigation, or because it feels "weird" for one reason or the other

Tongue Tongue

One of my favorite episodes, when everyone's bodies get swapped. Arthur swaps with a genetically created, giant tongue.

Tongue Tongue, as Arthur, fussing and licking the floor... his creater saying: "Poor Tongue Tongue, he has but only one tongue with which to taste the entire world"

Arthur, as the giant tongue, frustrated: "... I can taste the floor..."
