I can't wait until Supergirl is pushed out of her own show as it focuses more and more on Superman.

Snark aside, this was really good. Glad they did the Superman that enjoys life and is happy to help. Also completely forgot how adorable Benoist is in this role.

From day 1 I figured if they wanted to add another major super hero it would be Green Lantern. For TV, I'd guess Kyle would be the choice i'd make.

Oglaf comic.

I love the guy in the first panel with the knife in his back. He expression is so happy.

I wonder if they will do a Power Girl episode. I can certainly see them having Benoist play Kara Zor-L and well as Kara Danvers, and her pulling off the idea that the other is older.

They already did the evil clone as Bizzaro so they won't be doing the Justice League version of the story.

I think that's actually official canon - Spidey does hold back - but he pulls his punches to knock them out rather than kill them. Otto being able to just shrug him off makes no sense, but it's mostly acceptable. The other options would have been for Spidey to one-shot him with the movie being half as long, or choreograph their fights so that Spidey literally never gets past the arms.

In the very first issue of Superior Spider-Man, when Doc Ock first goes out as Spider-Man, he literally punches Scorpions jaw off, and thinks "oh poo poo, Parker could have killed me any time he wanted, but never did".


Argue posted:

They should make it so that Power Girl is Earth-Flarrow Kara. They could even do a whole plot about Barry finding her and convincing her she has powers because he knows her double.

Only problem is now Earth-Sad would have a Superperson. Actually, they should do it in the world where the JSA on Legends is appearing, as she was part of that group, though a later addition.

I always just accepted that Krypton was just a civilization that had reached its Apex and said "we don't need anything anywhere else" and just isolated themselves from everyone and were only inward looking. That's why Jor-El was always shown to be a brilliant outcast in most adaptions.

I said to myself "They're gonnnna fuuuuuck" when Alex and Maggie were being all antagonist as a joke, and well, yea that's clearly where they're headed.

I am space racist too because I just assumed that was going to be Sadam Yot, becuase I think all Daximites look the same. Though really because I will never, ever give up hope Supergirl is the show that has Green Lantern stuff on it. Half expected The Ginger Torch to be Starfire.

The DEO seems less like ARGUS or SHIELD and more like just a secret version of the FBI, and therefor vulnerable to external pressure. Ideally they'd have the ability to deal with people who use aliens illegally as well as the aliens themselves.

BrianWilly posted:

Sure but like, just because pressure is being put on the police doesn't mean it gets put on the "FBI" as well; they're separate departments. The minute Maggie said her hands were tied Alex should've been like "Well, mine aren't. Sic 'em, Supergirl." If Roulette then reveals that she somehow has leverage over the DEO, aka an organization that seems to be authorized by the White House itself...well, that's another thing, but as it stands it just seems like Alex (and Kara, earlier) rolled over too easily on this front.

Urrghgg I should just stop thinking about this so hard.

Also the fact the head of a major law enforcement agency was kidnapped, assaulted and force to fight to the death for the entertainment of others isn't apparently a very serious crime.

I mean obviously the high places friend is the President, but poo poo, this was just silly. Dammit Skye's mom, you're so evil.

I will watch the crossover but I don't think anyone can ever convince me to watch Arrow again.

I feel like Arrow is just keeping its head above water, but could sink at any moment. There's too many things that could cause it to go into full on Waaah my feelings stuff too quickly right now. Plus Wild Dog needs to shut his loving mouth.

Supergirl just feels like the most positive of the shows right now. Which really should be Flash because the Flash is the goofy snarky one who's always making jokes, and is often mentioned being the heart of the Justice League.

Be fair, people who just came out can be obnoxious. I bet Alex will be cool, but I can't get mad at Maggie for fearing that Alex would want her to be a guide to being a lesbian, or going through the post coming out overcorrection phase and listening to Tegan and Sara all the time.

But Tegan and Sara are good. I am a straight dude and I love me some lesbian twins indie pop.

Kara seriously is like a friend of mine, both of these I've seen her do. ONce when drunk she even tried to say chocolate in a very similar way. I think the writing team is spying on her. :tinfoil:

Cadmus seems like a good place to fill the show with easter eggs, even if they're never amount to anything.

"Oh here's a ship we found and it had this alien with a ring on in it". "Look at this weird Box we found"

Yup, it was dumb as gently caress. It pretty much screamed that DC had no idea what the hell they were doing with their comics and over all tone deaf because people liked the Wolverine homage character that smoked cigars and road around space on a motorcycle.

I'd feel a little better if Cadmus isn't constantly chumping our heroes. Also Superman has poo poo security. I figured the blood was going to go into making the Power Girl clone from JLA, not just smearing it on Cyborg Superman's hand so he can steal Kryptopedia.

Though Batman existing in Supergirl universe is really nifty.
