I'd hope that "season 2" is actually an unconnected show complete with a new name and cast.


Except for Ray.

TV Savage is aware that he is immortal but is he aware that he is unkillable? They really need to show him getting nuked or something and shrugging it off.

Vandal Savage must REALLY like his beard and haircut to never change it over thousands of years.

He's probably like Wolverine, his hair resets to the point it was at when his powers activated.

On Quantum Leap they called it "a kiss with history", but on this show it's more like "a clumsy teenage grope with history".

It's an actual thing, long story short he got caught in an Apache trial by combat with a sabotaged weapon and won by illegally pulling a second knife, but the chief only saw the knife and scarred him with a hot tomahawk in punishment for his dishonorable conduct. He's usually pretty seriously fugly, like this:



Hot Tomahawk would be a good band name.

Rory made some offhand comment about how these hunters, unlike him/chronos, had (I think) "nothing human left" or similar, either near the start of the episode or possibly at the end of last weeks. Now, that could have just meant mentally/spiritually, or it could have been intended to mean that they were so cyborged that they were essentially robots, so "killing" them is no big deal. Honestly I didnt think it was particularly clear from context, but I'm happy enough to wave it off as "The BMX armour Bandits were robot types", because as you say it'd be pretty out of character for Ray to just start dropping fools.

Also the writers know exactly how to make Hawkgirl a badass because she had that 5 minutes of being herself, complete with zappy mace and HRRRRGGGGGH rage noises whenever she'd swing it. So if they know what the comics fans want and are actively avoiding it then that's malpractice imo

That version of Hawkgirl is not this version of Hawkgirl.

It always seems like Carter gets his memories and then goes and finds Shiara and tells her they were meant to be together. Some writers have made it so both were in a position that it wasn't creepy, but the majority of stories I've read its always Carter being the one who starts it.

And yea, JLU did it best with Carter being portrayed as a creepy stalker and Batman wants to punch his lights out for stalking his friend. If creepers like Dini and Timm realize it's not right, then it's really not right.



JLU-Hawkgirl was also an alien who never buys into what Hawkman is selling. They never had a destiny to be together or history of reincarnation.

HAhahahahAHaa okay I hope you're all sitting down for this.

So, basically, we're getting Vixen for next season, except they can't get the Vixen actress, so instead of recasting the character of Mari McCabe, we're getting another Vixen from the past instead, who's an entirely new character.

I mean, that's better than recasting.

I spend some time trying to track down the quote, but an WB exec was saying that they feel the brand is too damaged to make another movie, or have any related characters in the DCCU any time soon. Which to me would be like Marvel saying that because Ang Lee Hulk movie was bad, they won't have the Hulk in the MCU. Considering how important GLs are to the over all cosmic world of DC, I feel like ignoring it is like Marvel saying no Thor stuff.

I keep hoping Supergirl does something with it, because it would be easy to have Atrocitus or Larfeeze on Fort Ross and have her have to fight them, with Atrocitus being an interesting villain because his motivations are not hatred but grief.

But seriously, doing a JSA without Alan Scott is just wrong. Though do they have a Dr Fate?

Time Warner has a Green Lantern Corps film scheduled for 2020 and there's numerous rumors that a GL will cameo in a film before that.
