HISTORY

A master criminal and the teacher of a "crime college". He was a member of the Hand's Fingers, who battled the Seven Soldiers of Victory (I) in the 1940s.

[Note: Professor Merlin's role in the pre-Flashpoint canon has not been clarified. He was a 1940s Green Arrow foe, but has not been referred to in recent years. Since he is more vital to the first case of the Seven Soldiers of Victory, he was supposedly a foe of the Spider (who took Green Arrow's place in the post-Crisis Seven Soldiers) instead.]
