The best thing about Supergirl is that she isn't bringing any baggage to this crossover. She's just a font of cheerful positivity to contrast everyone else's overbearing melodrama.

Let's not infect Supergirl with Barry bullshit.

I'm imagining a world where they were together from the start and thus Barry never creates bullshit because he never gets the chance.

Oh hey, at least it looks like the crossover might have fixed Cisco.

Seems like it. He had to gently caress up time himself in order to realize that oh, trying to do the right thing can have unforeseen consequences and that doesn't make you a monster. Oops!

You're bad at opinions. The Flash is almost universally considered to have the second best collection of villains in all of comics.

I don't see how he could have the second best collection of villains when Batman and Spiderman both exist.

Batman only has one good villain.

It's Ra's al ghoul.


Superman has plenty of wonderfull villains, though.

Now I want to name all other villains bad Flash names. Hey look it's Clownman. Oh no it's Flightless Bird. Don't do it Human Octopus, think of the children. Look up in the sky it's Opposite Superman.

You'd think the villains would get together and work on a standardized naming convention. Reverse Flash and Bizzaro Superman? Pick one or the other for your opposites already! Should alliteration be required, or should the villains vote on a more modern standard? Should villains be allowed to just use their name or should there be a motion to force Lex Luthor to something a little more stylish?

I think they missed out on a chance to continue the rotation at the end to have Slade appear in the background. Instead it just cuts to him.

Perhaps the director got hold of those 3D glasses used in some stuff on TV in the 80s / 90s and wanted to do a Pulfrich effect scene in honour of the fact it's the 100th episode and those tend to be gimmicky as gently caress?

Determined to stop Savitar, Barry goes to Earth-3 to get advice from Jay Garrick. Wally wants to help Barry fight Savitar and reveals that he’s been training with H.R, which doesn’t go over well with Barry. As Cisco faces his first Christmas without his brother Dante, old wounds are reopened.

For all we know it could be The usual poo poo about a family member not being there and regrets he may have. Hopefully it has nothing to do with Barry. From what I remember regarding their relationship it was not that great

Just because he was kind of a dick doesn't mean he wasn't Cisco's brother. Plus the couple episodes they had they tried to reconcile their differences.

Or worse, that Cisco's parents keep reminding him how much more they loved Dante than him to the point they probably go "it should've been YOU instead of him."
