The Getaway Genius (a. k. a. Roy Reynolds) is a DC Comics supervillain, enemy of Batman, Gardner F. Fox and Sheldon Moldoff in Batman #170 (March 1965). He is characterized by planning getaway tecniques after his crimes rather than trying to get rid of Batman.

Realizing most of the famous villains of Gotham City fail as criminals againt Batman because they try to eliminate him, he decides to focus along his gang on getaway gimmicks. In his first appearance, after certain success with his initial hits, Batman and Robin fake being supernaturally vulnerable and the Getaway goons go after them to kill them and end up apprehended. The Gateaway Genius follows his original plan and escapes, but Batman later apprehends him at his lair.
