Mirror Master (Scudder)

Start from the beginning
                                    

With Cold gone and Scudder's powers in a flux, the Rogues wind up in Gotham. They are captured by Poison Ivy who uses her toxins to infect Trickster with some sort of Poison. It turns out that Poison Ivy wanted Mirror Master to use his powers to help move the moon to give her plants more sunlight; however, they are interrupted by Mister Freeze, Clayface, and some Man-Bats before that happens.

After fighting and escaping the Gotham Rogues (at the loss of Heatwave) the group run into the Royal Flush Gang. Mirror Master uses his gun to open a portal to the Mirror World on the front of a Semi-Truck and proceeds to run over their attackers; sending them to the Mirror World. He is stopped; however, when Johnny Quick and Atomica join the fight.

In the last chapter of Rogues Rebellion the Rouges must fight a large portion of the DCU villains including Gorilla Grodd, Parasite, and much much more. With the help of Golden Glider and Weather Wizard the Rogues are able to turn intangible and Weather Wizard pushes their foes into a large mirror created by Mirror Master, thus sending them to the Mirror World and eliminating them from the fight.

Once finished the Rogues meet with the Pied Piper and several Gotham cops who thank them for saving the city.

Powers & Abilities

Pre-52

Samuel Scudder is the original Mirror Master, and created all of the gadgets and trick mirrors used by Evan McCullough.

He had the goal to get inside the reflection of a mirror, and after finding a mysterious metal that had dimension accessing properties he was able to achieve his goal. Scudder then created a variety of mirrors and started to experiment with the endless worlds that were held behind them. He is able to effortlessly move through reflections and trap people inside glass, his costume even enabled him to hypnotize his foes.

When Scudder was killed during Crisis on Infinite Earths his equipment was taken by the U.S Government and given to Evan McCullough, the second Mirror Master.

New 52

In the New 52 it is assumed that Scudder was the creator of his weaponry, and after an accident with a Genome Re-coder he was merged with his gun. Scudder was incredibly unlucky and became trapped inside the Mirror World with no hope of escaping, unable to leave he began to serve as the Rogues 'transport'.

Scudder was pulled free from his prison by Golden Glider during 'Forever Evil' and since then he's been able to walk throughout the real world among the rest of the Rogues. His powers remain the same.
