Bring on the Bad Guys: Tuffy

Real name: Tuffy

First appearance: Flash Comics#21 (September 1941)

Abilities: Counterfeiter 

Worst act: Rigging a lottery 

Created by: Gardner Fox (script) and Harold Wilson Sharp (art) 

So we end our Bring on the Bad Guys for 2021 and the Fastest Man Alive comes to a stop. 

This one opens with Joan being announced as winning a lottery. She isn't in the theater, so she won't win. Jay Garrick is and this insult to his lady won't stand! So he rushes her to the theater at top speed to claim the prize. 

She gets the money, but Jay quickly notices the bill is fake. The Flash follows the crooks back to their lair and confronts their boss Tuffy. The fight ends as fast as you think and Joan gets the real money. 

Not terrible, but as we've seen this month, so many guys in suits. Next time we'll focus on some more colorful characters.
