Doctor Alchemy (real name: Albert Desmond), formerly known as Mister Element is a supervillain in the DC comics and an enemy of the Flash. He joined forces with the criminal organization known as the Rogues.
History
Albert Desmond suffered from a split personality, one a good person and the other evil. Originally calling himself Mr. Element and using element-themed devices before being captured by the Flash, he changed it to Dr. Alchemy when he found the philosopher's stone which could transmute elements after hearing of it from a cellmate, and was able to transmute elements, although the effects only lasted for about 20 minutes.
Soon it was found out that there were two Desmonds, Albert, the good one and Alvin, the bad, and that they shared a mental link. Alvin was destroyed, but Albert became Dr. Alchemy again.
