Resulta que a pesar de que pasan cosas grosas este número nos aburrió un toque, así que debatimos si el Anti Monitor es Capitan Escroto o Cara de Manta Raya y hacemos más referencias a Drag Race que las que el público hetero cis puede apreciar. Además, debatimos el Fin de la edad de plata y ¿qué onda el Spectre? Ian Gutierrez - Gus Casals #IanleeCrisis

En un plato de trigo tres tierras infinitas... Olvídense del Anti Monitor, la Tierra X y la familia Marvel. ¿Quénes son Miss Patria, Cinturón Amarillo y Somelier de Fight Scenes? Sólo lo sabe su antagonista, Letras Equivocadas Kid! Tienen que escucharlo para entender. No se van a arrepentir.Tampoco nos van a volver a ver de la misma manera...  Ian Gutierrez - Gus Casals #IanleeCrisis

Krona, The Spectre, and The Anti-Monitor are all personifications of ultimate power in the DC Universe. Power to create and destroy, but ultimately just rendered characters on the printed page. But now in 2023 a new, and more powerful, "presence" has emerged in the real world that will shape the new DCU. Not powdered by solar energy, or wielding a magical emerald ring, but instead imbued with the cunning and savvy of an accomplished filmmaker, James Gunn prepares to be the hand that births a new cinematic universe of awe and wonder for DC fans the world over. Join your hosts James, Keith, and Joe as they candidly react to Mr. Gunn's planned reveal of his "Gods and Monsters" first wave of live-action and animated offerings. Will Superman fly higher on the big screen than ever before? Can the World's Greatest Detective protect Gotham, and rein in his lethal little offspring? Does The Swamp Thing reign supreme in the green? Is "the will" strong enough for the Lanterns to expose the darkness in the DCU to the light? And most importantly--does Booster Gold fubar all of Gunn's plans if he gets ahold of Rip Hunter's Time Sphere? It's an hour of speculation, tribulation, and an eye toward elation, regarding James Gunn's prodigious plans. Bring your imagination--your hopes and dreams for this new DCU--to this special edition of your favorite podcast. This is the stuff we live for fellow pop-culture fans!!

 We kick off Season 10 and Lantern Month with the prickliest Earth Lantern, GUY GARDNER! How does Doc survive a session with someone like this? Tune in to find out! Intro Welcome back for Season 10 January is Lantern Month Patrons will get an exclusive episode, plus a watch party of the Ryan Reynolds movie Background (4:00) Guy Gardner created by John Broome and Gil Kane in Green Lantern #59 (March 1968) Guy is the child of an abusive alcoholic who regularly beat him, giving him an aggressive nature and a defiance to authority In college, however, he shifts and becomes engaged in social work, and later a teacher for disabled children When Abin Sur's ring sought out a successor, Guy Gardner would have been chosen had he been closer, but since Hal Jordan was in the vicinity of the crash, he was selected He later becomes a reserve Lantern, backing up John Stewart Hal's power battery explodes in his face, trapping him in the Phantom Zone - when he is freed, he is comatose and suffering from brain damage for many years The Guardians revive him and give him a new ring & outfit, and charge him with assembling a team to battle the Anti-Monitor - the brain damage during his coma altered his personality, leaving him immature, arrogant, and violent He is a founding member of the Justice League International, although he chafes against Batman's leadership - Batman knocks him out with one punch, and when he awakens, he is empathetic and caring - until he hits his head again, and he reverts to his abrasive self Loses a fight with Hal and surrenders his ring, but later finds a yellow ring of Sinestro's After losing an eye in another fight with Hal/Parallax, he drinks from the Warrior chalice and unlocks dormant powers hidden in his DNA - he then becomes a shapeshifter that can create weapons from his limbs He is returned to full human in GL Rebirth when the Parallax entity is stripped from the main power battery, and he becomes one of the trainers for the new Corps, later becoming a member of the Honor Guard During Blackest Night & War of the Lanterns, he wears a Red ring and then a Sapphire ring, fueling himself with rage over the death of Kyle Rayner and his love of the Corps New 52 - He gets dismissed from the Corps after the Guardians create the Third Army to replace all Green Lanterns, but regains his ring, and along with Simon Baz & other Lanterns, they defeat the Guardians and restore the Corps Then he joins the Red Lanterns, working as an undercover agent on behalf of the Green Lanterns - he takes over from Atrocitus as leader, and uses his rage against what he felt as disrespect from Hal, John, Kyle, the Guardians, and the Corps Issues - Gotta love ‘em, because otherwise you'll hate ‘em (9:03) All right, so...Guy Gardner. The friend in the group no one really likes that much. The really difficult coworker who's indispensable and you have to try and get along with because you know he's not going anywhere. The guy who never really grew out of his high school jock phase. We've all known a few Guy Gardners in our lives. Some of us may have even been a Guy Gardner at one time and not know it. Guy's really not that much of a mystery. His issues are right there out in the open in big blinking neon letters. Cockiness and abrasive personality. If you aren't aware of how great a Green Lantern, superhero, or a man Guy is, just ask him. He'll be happy to tell you all about it. If you have a disagreement about Guy's assessment of himself, he'll also be happy to correct your misconceptions. Loudly, at first. Violently, if loudly doesn't get the job done. Guy's got an incredibly big mouth and certainly doesn't mind telling you exactly what he thinks of you. This tends to make him more than a little difficult to get along with as a person, and much more difficult as a teammate. It's become a running gag over Guy's time in DC that his fellow Corps members and Justice League teammates are not shy about expressing enjoyment when bad things befall him. Even people like Superman, who'd normally be above such things. No sense of self-preservation. You know that phrase, "your mouth's writing checks your ass can't cash"? Guy's ass has not only stopped payment on the many checks his mouth has written over the years, it's sent his mouth several overdraft notices. It's the primary requirement of a Green Lantern's job description to be able to overcome great fear. One of the reasons Guy is such a great Lantern is that he seems too thick-headed to even understand the concept of fear at all. His default mode is, "you want a piece of me?" and he frequently charges head-first into a fight without any plan other than letting his willpower, gumption, and titanium balls carry the day. And he will often get slapped around for his trouble, not only by more powerful opponents like Doomsday, but baseline humans he picks fistfights with like Hal Jordan and Batman. It really seems like a little bit of healthy rational fear would serve him well. (25:48) Identity wrapped up in being a Green Lantern. Of all the Lanterns we meet and get to know well, Guy loves being part of the Corps and being a superhero maybe more than any of them. Beneath his rough exterior, the times he's been on the outs with the rest of the Corps and stripped of his position absolutely kills him inside. During the War of the Lanterns arc, where he had to learn how to power a violet ring off of love, the only thing that got it working was him proclaiming his love for the Corps, and how he had absolutely nothing without them. Guy is a person who loves his job more than anything else in his life, and doesn't really know how to function when it doesn't love him back. (31:16) Break (40:41) Plugs for Ignorance Was Bliss, Play Comics, and Howard Mackie Treatment (41:53) In-universe - Make Guy think Doc is the best of the best, and then deflate that Out of universe - Real-world equivalents? Come on, the world is full of these people. Men, women, rich, poor, they come from all backgrounds, all walks of life. Pig-headed people who think highly of themselves, think they're always right, and have a hard time making anything more than the most superficial connections with others. People who never really matured as they got older, who love to rag on others way past the point where it stops being funny, who carry jokes way too far, and can't let things go. But for whatever reason, it's easier to keep them around than the alternative. (45:28) Skit Hello Guy, I'm Dr. Issues. - What's up Doc? Not much - I bet you hear that ALL THE TIME. Eh, you get used to it. - Must be tough, dealing with all these whackjobs and nasty bastards all day.  It's not easy, but - I mean it's not like patrolling the whole galaxy or nuthin', but it's a good gig I ‘spose. I do like - Must take a lotta willpower to face all the stuff you see every day. Bet you think you could even wield a power ring, eh? To be honest, I hadn't considered - Well lemme disabuse you of that idea right off the bat. THIS ring is only for the strongest of will. There are a lotta wannabe ring-slingers out there, but the Corps only takes the best o' the best. I should know, they picked me.  I can see - An' I'm so good they let me weed out the softies who can't hack it. Me an' Kilowog, we train all the rookies an' turn ‘em into solid, functioning Lanterns. Not just anyone can do that, ya know. I'm sure - ‘Course if I had full control, there'd be a few folks I'd never have let in the first place. I mean Sinestro, c'mon, you can see from a mile away he's one guy who shoulda never got a ring. His name is friggin' Sinestro, I mean, what's next, a lantern called Evil McMurder? The Smurfs make a lotta mistakes, but that's gotta be up there, top 5 at least. Smurfs? - The Guardians, lil' blue dudes, they created the Corps. They say they don't use emotion, but if you ask me, sometimes they throw logic out the window too. Then again, they put me in charge of stuff, so what's that saying? A blind squirrel finds a nut? I have heard that - I mean, I should be the full-time Lantern for Earth, we don't even need anyone else. The other guys are OK, but if you can have filet mignon, why settle for a sloppy joe? Different folks have - John's alright. Bit too stick in the mud for me sometimes, but he's definitely thorough when it comes to dealing with stuff. A Marine cop architect ain't exactly the kinda guy who's gonna miss details. An' a black guy has seen enough hateful stuff to give him perspective on conflict, I mean i'm sure you get crap all the time. I don't quite see how that's - Kyle's a good kid. He's gotta stop beatin' himself up over every lil' thing, though. He needs better coping skills, ya can't just draw your problems away. I mean he's a great partner, but the crying and whining get old after a while. “Oh i'm a sensitive artist, all my girlfriends die, boo hoo.” If he starts pissin' me off I ask him to get me somethin' outta the fridge from Alex. That shuts him up for a while hahahaha Wow, I don't even know where - An' then there's Jordan. The hotshot. The ace pilot. The pretty boy. If I hadda nickel every time someone fawned over him, I'd be able to afford a nice little place in Pago Pago. He's gotten us inta more scrapes and fights than I can count. Seems like just about every problem the Corps has can be traced back to him, somethin' he did, someone he ticked off, it's almost always Hal. An' he knows it too. What I wouldn't give ta wipe that smug smile offa his mug. Sounds like you've got - Oh an' don't get me wrong, I've tried. More than once, actually. Sonuvabitch always ends up getting me with a lucky shot.  If it's happened more than once - But as much as it pains me ta say it, for every time he's put us in danger, he's saved our ass. Mine, yours, the universe's. He and I have gone toe-to-toe so many times, and no matter what, he's always gonna be the first one ta back me up when it hits the fan. So yeah, I don't like him half the time, but that don't mean I don't respect him. Fact is, he needs me to push him.  How do you - He knows I'm right awn his ass, ready to take his spot if he so much as sneezes the wrong way. John, Kyle, the other kids, hell even the other Lanterns, we're all waiting for him to mess up. And the beauty of it is, ya don't even hafta wait that long, because it's Hal.  That kind of pressure - Makes diamonds? Yeah, that's what it's like in the Corps. We don't have the luxury of second-guessing ourselves. Ya can't be afraid of things, that's kinda the whole point. No fear, willpower, all o' that. When ya been through everything I've been through, fear is a waste o' time.  But fear can - An' all those other colors, the Froot Loops Troops, they can suck an egg.  Other emotions are just as - Yeah, I'm sure you're gonna give me some spiel about the power of emotions, and I'll be honest, I've felt the power of all of ‘em at some point, ‘specially when they're punching you in the face. *whispers* I'd like to punch you in the face -*oblivious* Yeah, I'm used to people being too intimidated to say what they really mean. That ain't me. You know what the world needs more of? People like me to take a stand. Are you sure -I knew you'd agree so I figured I'd give you a shot at bouncing some ideas, I dunno. We don't have someone looking at the big picture. Dare I say, I feel like a grunt even when I'm the main event. Ya don't say -The nerve, right? Some alien overlords treat me like I'm liability when I'm the biggest asset they got *Whispers again* just biggest ass* -Oh man, I must be going deaf, you say somethin? You know doc, you're alright. You know how to listen. You're not like all the others that want to talk down to me or beat me to a pulp. I heard about people like you. You got…whadja call it… Common sense? -No…you actually think about people. Nobody is really brave or stupid enough to do that unless they have a ginormous heart or they're a genius or they're trying to get their head ripped off or something. You just take it all in, waiting for the right time, then BAM you say just the right thing. You told me everything I'll ever need to know in one session. It's awesome. I could do this all day! But I didn't -Oh don't go with the false modesty. This is worth ten times what you charge. I'm tellin all the guys about you. I'll have you on speed dial. All day e'ery day! I don't -Just wait till the guardians learn I really am as badass as I said all along, and I got a doctor to back me up. I wouldn't -Right, need to play that card close to the vest. Damn, you're smart. Well, that's about all I can stand of this. Gonna go catch the O's game, gotta case of Natty Bo's waitin' for me. See ya ‘round Doc! *leaves* *sigh* Why do I even care about jerks like him so much? It's like I'm a magnet for these hard luck cases..

Lex Luthor is wielding the power of three ancient gods of Leviathan. Gememnea escaped the bottle because she is pure technology. She could not be defeated in the same way. Dreamer has made it to Brainy’s location to find him on the brink of death. Alex arrives and administers a treatment for the radiation poisoning. The treatment allows Brainy’s head to clear enough to tell the team about the anti-life equation. It has the power to defeat pure technology which is what Gememnea is. Each member of the team has their strengths and together they must fight to save this world. Lex has changed Lena’s do no harm program to the I love Lexi upgrade. Half of the population will adore him regardless of his actions and the others that were not logged in during the unity festival will die. This would include his sister but she killed him first so he considers that fair. Supergirl wants to save the world even if it means sacrificing her life. She agrees to surrender in exchange for the codes to disable the satellites that Lex launched into space. Dreamer sees a possible scenario where Lex is ending worlds Anti-Monitor style. If these satellites are not disabled simultaneously they are each equipped to fire missiles at Earth. M’gann suggests a Martian binding ritual so what they do to one satellite will affect all of them. Supergirl heads to the fortress to face Lex. Also stored in the kryptonian stronghold is an artifact from the Leviathan home planet. The only substance capable of stripping Lex of his immortality. After an epic battle Lex thinks he has won. He has overloaded Kara’s body with kryptonite, however Lena has developed a new addition to the super suit to provide extra protection to our Maid of Steel. Kara Zor El does not work alone and just as Lillian Luthor predicted our super friends have found the only element that can restore her son’s mortality. In the face of victory there is also defeat. Lex Luthor is a mortal man once again but the cost was high. Kara is once again trapped in The Phantom Zone. Her coordinates in that vast dark place are unknown. One thing we know for sure, Supergirl‘s friends and her beloved sister will never give up on her. Alex has been given a new title by J’onn. She will serve the tower as the Sentinel. All together the team will keep the world safe in our Maid of Steel’s absence. Please join Silver Vox and me your eye in the sky as we launch into season six of Supergirl. Have a super week!

In this week's episode of The Flash Podcast, Andy, Tatiana, Breeze, and Lacy got together to review the two issues of Crisis on Infinite Earths: Paragons Rising, the tie-in comic to the 5-part Arrowverse crossover. Written by Marv Wolfman (who wrote the original Crisis comic!) and Arrowverse creator Marc Guggenheim, the two issues "Paragon Rising" and "Infinite Luthors" tell multiple stories during the game-changing crossover featuring additional CW characters across the Multiverse. Do the stories actually make sense and tie-in with what was seen on TV with the 5-hour event? Despite being said to be canon with the 5-part event, do the two issues fit in with what the characters went through on-screen? Find out why the hosts had mixed thoughts on the two stories and more on this week's The Flash Podcast - stay till the end, there is a post-credit scene! "Crisis on Infinite Earths" leaps from The CW's "Arrowverse" to this new collection starring fan-favorite character Felicity Smoak in a brand-new, Multiverse-spanning epic as she tries to locate the keys to the Anti-Monitor's plan! Plus, Lex Luthor teams up with a council of Luthors, but can they all play nicely to save the Multiverse?

By the end of it, the Arrowverse will not be the same - what a crisis! "Crisis on Infinite Earths" is the sixth annual Arrowverse crossover event, featuring episodes of Supergirl, Batwoman, The Flash, Arrow, and Legends of Tomorrow on The CW. With the first three episodes airing in December 2019 and the last two concluding the crossover in January 2020, this DC television crossover went bigger than ever before. That Film Stew's Luke and Nathan take on this multi-episode superhero epic which continues plotlines established in the previous crossover, "Elseworlds". In "Crisis", the Monitor gathers Green Arrow, the Flash, Supergirl, Batwoman, Sara Lance, Ray Palmer, and several "Paragons" from throughout the multiverse to stop the Anti-Monitor from destroying all of reality.

Welcome back to Verbally Challenged! Jason L returns along with a surprise guest to break down the final two episodes of Crisis on Infinite Earths, the CW Arrowverse adaptation of the DC Comics story that rewrote their entire Multiverse. With the Paragons stranded at Vanishing Point, The origins of the Monitor and Anti-Monitor becomes clear. Will our heroes be able to overcome the single most greatest threat they've ever faced to save the Multiverse and put things back to the way they were, or will the anti-matter wave destroy all life as we know it!?

Does she remember being Harbinger?  WHERE IS WALLY?????????????????  Where is Cisco and the others? Article cited at bottom states, “Maybe one day we will tell that story,” Guggenheim hedges, “but again, all of those actors need to be paid, and they need to be paid a crossover rate that is above and beyond their episodic rate. That forces us to make hard financial choices that unfortunately occasionally drive the creative choices.” • Roses o SP -  Never been done before over this many shows and this many episodes  o Chris  Combining earths opens some cool opportunities.  Justice League formation is awesome.  BEEBO! Everyone loves Beebo  Sara gets heavily featured and proven that as Captain she's already a leader of people. Makes sense she would lead the group. Also continuous with a trend in DC where normal humans play a fundamental role in a team  Routh as Supes one more time. I literally cheered when i saw him in suit on screen again. o Michelle  OMG they combined all the current CW DC shows (Stargirl on her own Earth)  Sara in charge; given great moments: leading fight w/Beebo, heart-to-heart w/Barry; coordinating fight w/Anti-Monitor and shadow demons; speech to Anti-Monitor - For Oliver!  Surprise Flash cameo  Black Lightning part of Justice League. Also - Justice League! Hall of Heroes!  Kara happy Kate on same Earth during fight w/Beebo  Baby Sara!  Justice for Brandon Routh - amazing shot as Superman • Point of discussion - will you watch the other shows? • For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Three (14 Jan 2020) https://comicbook.com/dc/2020/01/14/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spoilers-part-4-5-easter-eggs/#21 • 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' Burning Qs Answered!

Takes over Harbinger Mobius Takes Novu's power; destroys Earth-1 Lex Luthor Of course he's going to take a page from the book and make himself a hero  Pariah Controlled by Anti-Monitor; bears witness Cisco vibes his memories Brings Black Lightning, who doesn't know about multiple Earths and whose Earth is gone Teleports Flash, Sara, Batwoman, Supergirl, Superman, J'onn J'onzz, and Ryan to the Vanishing Point - outside of time and space; Lex comes out of Superman to rewrite destiny Black Lightning Contains energy from canon Not from Earth-1 Rage against the dying of the light  Thorns: SP All three episodes sort of feel like a waste now because everything is gone Loved the cameos, but some are obscure for Arrowverse fans Choi Lucifer Spectre Stargate Pioneer Jon Cryer - what a great Lex - plus the Christopher Reeve connection in Superman IV. Yes, I know we've discussed it before but I felt it needed to be mentioned again. The way the Flash cast just miraculously portals in Punctuates the separate episodes and not true continuous miniseries event Black Lightning just a bit more than a cameo It would have been nice to see Oracle on Earth 203 World's Finest confrontation ...a bit old with Batman v Superman Why does Vibe live again when Cisco went through the whole arc of becoming non meta again? - I know,because plot and he was the only one to get through the treadmill force field. But….really? Chris Why isn't Dig the Green Lantern yet? Spectre reveal kinda came out of nowhere Michelle  Still upset that we didn't see Nash become Pariah or Lyla become Harbinger and why she ended up w/Anti-Monitor and as the Anti-Monitor If Anti-Monitor could destroy all Earths at once, why not do so? (I know, because plot, but still) Oliver didn't need to become the Spectre; Corrigan would've been great to see Roses SP -  All the cameos. John Wesley Shipp's 90's flash gets an ending Diggle's issue about not being with Oliver - true to the characters Routh's Superman … again. Chris John Wesley Shipp is OG flash again! and we get an actual 90s flash flashback Brandon Routh is still great. Can we give him a Superman show? Diggle and Oliver's friendship is shown to be a big deal when he's the one that pulls him out. Lex tricks everyone (keep in mind he sees himself as a hero normally). BUt bummed it's Routh Supes that is gone :( Kara and Kate conversation ends when Kara tells her to keep the kryptonite   Michelle  Lucifer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Tom Ellis and the show. Maze is Mazikeen, loyal servant/friend of Lucifer's; Constantine helped bring her out of Hell to Earth; there are rules preventing Lucifer from just bringing whoever he wants out of Hell; even Lucifer has to go back to Hell; visit is pre-TV show Treadmill from comics; a Flash has to die; flashback to Flash TV show (knew this was going to happen, still teared up anyway) Logical reason to bring in Black Lightning Diggle brings back Oliver Still loving Snart as the voice of the Waverider For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Three (10 Dec 2019) https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/11/crisis-on-infinite-earths-part-3-easter-eggs/     ARROW NEWS:   CW Reveals When Arrow, Flash, Batwoman and More Return From Winter Hiatus (Date: 18 Dec 2019) Both Arrow and DC's Legends of Tomorrow will air on Jan. 14 to close out the Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths".

New and unfriendly Just started - yet was active last year Took Kryptonite from Bruce Barry Allen / Flash - Earth 1 We're going to use a Lazarus Pit to bring Oliver back Team Flash Sara Lance / White Canary Promised crew to no more crossovers Mia - Nyssa told me everything about you and Lazarus Pits Ray / Atom  Paragon detector Team Legends Earth-74: Snart is this Waverider's AI - any preference to how you want to die, Harbinger Rory's ship; trying to be a writer; Harbinger, we need you - Rory “You had me at beer” Rory - Good with the baby; reads his self-published novel Monitor Need Ray's lab Need the 7 paragons - beings of the purest will Kara - hope Kate - courage (bat of the future) Sara - destiny Superman 96 - truth Got Book of Destiny by going back in time; knew Luthor was going to steal the book Book of the Guardians - given to Felicity Harbinger Keeping Diggle in the dark Book making heard headaches Goes to the Anti-Monitor Lex Luthor Has a part to play; destiny unfulfilled Steals book; mission - kill all Superman  Pariah Thorns: SP Oliver's death is devastating, but whole planets have been destroyed Felicity (Chris good point) Is Lyla Lyla or Harbinger. Diggle at home with JJ? Yea I liked Leonard on the Earth-74 Waverider, but why not use the ACTUAL Waverider? The book of destiny - who can use it and who cannot? - Not exactly the same book as last crossover Epic Superman v Superman fight destruction - they definitely need a glass repair service on Earth-96 If the Monitor knew who the paragons were - why waste time sending them on their journey to Earth-99?   Chris Where Diggle? He should be here and be a potential voice of reason for not using a Lazarus Pit Its a sendoff for Smallville but no Welling in suit Blue K theory? (doesn't really matter now) I'm conflicted here it's a good sendoff to Clark. Part of his narrative in the show was that he wanted to me normal at times.  I think I built it up too much in my mind. But tbh I'm a bit salty we still never got Welling in the suit CG on the Super fight was a bit rough but TV budget so okay What's up with Lyla? Is this going to be explained in the comic tie-in? Sidequest the episode.  Big stakes from part 1 aren't really in play here Michelle  Tom Welling not in Superman suit Lazarus Pit, really? The multiverse is ending; Barry spends a lot of time on side mission Harbinger's going to Anti-Monitor really not explained Roses SP -  “Yea. I kind of promised my crew we'd never have to do another crossover” Jonathan crying and being passed off from person to person until Mick stops him World's Finest Teamup to Earth-99. “Bat Of The Future” Lois has a thing for ALLSupermen Lex Luther's “Superfriends” comment to Earth-167 Superman It was fitting to have Batman in the Batwoman episode Superman v Superman fight was made better by two actors: Brandon Routh and Tyler Hoechlin For all the Legends Of Tomorrow side characters to be in Crisis, it was good to see Jonah Hex End credit symbols are pretty cool   Chris Leo replaces Gideon Routh is still a perfect Superman. This is the series they should be pursuing.  He is from Superman Returns via reference to his son Jason Kara eyes up Routh Supes gets told he's her cousin by Superman prime was fun Ray and Supes trading quips on teh Waverider was fun Having not watched Cryer in Supergirl I don't know what he was like previously but he nails it as Lex Kevin Conroy is batman even if its evil batman. they took my batman and put him in live action. Normally I complain about guggenheim and his need to defy expectations of fans. I actually liked it here. To many people Kevin Conroy is the definitive version of batman. One who never kills. To take this version and have him be a broken version similar to Dark Knight Returns Batman was not what I expected. And seeing Conroy pull off broken Batman both physically and mentally was quite the show. Teased me with Batman Beyond when referencing a Gotham from the future Smallville Didn't expect to get it. Like the nod to Lex as president Wish there had been more Alternate earth Mick is still delightful as is his babysitting Michelle  Tom Welling!!!! Everyone noticing how buff he is Like the Kara/Constantine/Mia teamup Kate and Kara develop relationship Cryer gets to be more Lex Luthor-y than on Supergirl Kate has character development w/interaction w/Bruce Brandon Routh gets to show the world why he's a great Superman and deserves to take over from Cavill Episode made me like Superman again For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Two (10 Dec 2019) https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/10/crisis-infinite-earths-part-2-easter-eggs/      ARROW NEWS:   CW Reveals When Arrow, Flash, Batwoman and More Return From Winter Hiatus (Date: 18 Dec 2019) Both Arrow and DC's Legends of Tomorrow will air on Jan. 14 to close out the Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths".

Y'alls coverage of the show plus the One-shots and other stuff yuns do is fantastic. Just listened to Purgatory and thought that I would mention that on VUDU you can buy the bundles of Invansion and Crisis On Earth-X. They haven't got Elseworlds bundled yet but hopefully they do, and obviously I hope eventually they get Crisis On Infinite Earths bundled too. Thanks, I appreciate y'all, it's been fun listening to y'alls coverage, and looking forward to these last little bit of episodes. Thanks! REDDIT (via Chris): https://www.reddit.com/r/arrow/comments/e9vu1r/crisis_spoilers_star_city/ Posted byu/rleach1001 7 days ago [Crisis Spoilers] Star City spoiler Star City 2046 can't be the same Earth featured in Legends of Tomorrow. I know Sara said the Waverider jumped dimensions, but she has to be wrong. In Legends of Tomorrow S1E6, Sara meets future Oliver and he says: "30 years ago, you and Ray hopped on a spaceship, and you never came back." In Crisis Part One, they meet alternate Oliver, and he says: "You're dead. You... you went down with the Gambit." So, Earth-16 is an alternate Earth that's very similar to Star City 2046, but Sara actually died on the Gambit. She never got on the Amazo, joined the League, or came back to Star City. Star City 2046 was a potential future for Earth-1 that was avoided.   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/09/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spoilers-part-3-trailer-watch-online-the-flash/ (Date: 9 Dec 2019)    Episode: “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 3” [Flash: Season 6 Episode 9] Air Date: Tuesday, December 10, 2019 Summary: Pariah enlists Black Lightning to help stop the Anti-Monitor after Flash-90 Shares what he learned from his battle in 'Elseworlds'.

The Starling Tribune Reporters SP and Chris review the 2019 Arrowverse Crossover Crisis On Infinite Earths Part One (technically Supergirl Season 5 Episode 9) with the help of Michelle's notes once again. Michelle was out sick for the week. The reporters discuss the final Arrow included crossover episode part one including why you should enjoy these episodes while you have access to them, that this is simply the MOST AMBITIOUS crossover in the history of television spanning SIX currently airing television shows, why its time to geek out over all the cameos, the reporter's takes on the Earth-16 adventure (more to come in a later episode), the reporter's roses and thorns with this episode of the crossover, why Arrow fans might feel cheated at the big Arrow moment and Marc Guggenheim's reasons for it,if the crossover can be produced like a 5 episode miniseries or a 5 episode premium streaming series, why James Bamford would have been a great addition to the Supergirl episode production staff, and what was that deal between the Monitor and Oliver Queen about anyway?   Episode:            “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part One” [Supergirl: Season 5 Episode 9] Air Date:           Sunday, December 8, 2019   Director:           Jesse Warn https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1168394/?ref_=tt_ov_dr                          13x Supergirl / 6x Arrow / 4x The Flash / 8x Spartacus   Writers: Robert L.

William not in Crossover and doesn;'t get to experience Oliver dying Batwoman's timeline Where did Mia's Arrow suit come from?

Scene cut short Arrow dies on Supergirl - not on Arrow.Pretty big deal. Pariah just appears like Harbinger. No origin story Chris Lena sucks pacing seemed off. Ollie death to ‘subvert our expectations' bs Ollie's magic quiver shadow demons looks like dementors Michelle - don't see Lyla become Harbinger or her relationship w/Monitor; don't see Nash become Pariah; wanted tower to become part of plot like in comics; wish crossover treated like 5 hour movie, not upset Oliver died in Part 1, but just because it's called Supergirl doesn't mean all the stupid subplots from the show have to be in the crossover (I think we've had this complant every crossover) Roses SP -  “Age Of Heroes” Multiverse Intro Worldbuilding - All the Earths, all of DC's screen coming together 4th Wall broken early and often - didn't take itself too seriously Homages to 78 Superman with Jonathan was cool Chyron's really helped map out where people were Supergirl and Superman comforting each other in the face of tremendous loss - DEO Balcony Avenger's Age Of Ultron battle around the machine / Harry Potter  Tons of female leads.

"They were very gracious about it." At this time, it's unknown if recurring Flash characters Harry Wells and Jesse Quick managed, both denizens of Earth-2, escaped their world's destruction. However, according to Arrow star Stephen Amell, Oliver witnessing the destruction of an alternate Earth will continue to impact him for the rest of the season. https://www.cbr.com/arrow-clear-destruction-earth-2-flash-writers/ Green Arrow and the Canaries: Arrow Spinoff Series Gets First Promo Poster (Date: 16 Oct 2019) A new poster for the upcoming female-centric Arrow spinoff spotlights the new Green Arrow Mia Smoak (Katherine McNamara), as well as the two Canaries (Katie Cassidy and Juliana Harkavy), Laurel Lance and Dinah Drake. The art was shared by Arrow co-creator Marc Guggenheim. "Arrow's final season bows today, so it feels appropriate to share this glimpse of its future," he wrote. Stylized to look like a comic book, the art features Laurel and Dinah in their current costumes, while Mia seems to be wearing one inspired by her father. https://www.cbr.com/green-arrow-and-the-canaries-arrow-spinoff-series-first-promo-poster/   Crisis on Infinite Earths: Stephen Lobo Cast as Jim Corrigan, AKA The Spectre (Date: 16 Oct 2019) Another DC Comics icon will make their Arrowverse debut during the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover. IGN can exclusively reveal that Detective Jim Corrigan, human host of the powerful cosmic entity known as the Spectre, will appear in the crossover. The CW has cast Stephen Lobo (Continuum, Supernatural) as Jim Corrigan. The network isn't confirming whether The Spectre himself will appear, though given the character's role in the original Crisis on Infinite Earths comic, that seems a distinct possibility. In the comics, Corrigan is a mortal human bonded to the Spectre, a powerful supernatural avenger. That bond is intended to give the so-called "Spirit of Vengeance" a conscience and a better perspective on mortal affairs. The two are among many heroes who do battle with the Anti-Monitor during Crisis. https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/10/16/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spectre-jim-corrigan-casting-crossover-cw-arrow-stephen-lobo FEEDBACK   DISCORD:   RandyWalker I totally forgot that Earth-2 Laurel went back to Earth-2. NGL I totally didn't pay attention to the ending few episodes of season 7. The FTA sucked then and it's still bad. Adrian Chase's hair was sexy   yakk0dotorg very satisfying premiere of Arrow last night. I enjoyed it a lot.   StephenJondrew Totally agree - right from start to finish. I loved the ending seconds. It was so good. Also, the Diggle-car scene was a fantastic moment. I enjoyed how that whole Diggle debut played out.   E-MAIL:   From David: First off I wanted to start off by saying I am going to miss your podcast. I look forward to your arrow recap every week. A couple of thoughts. Am I the only one who notices that the Queen mansion looked different. The foyer didnt look the same as it did in season 1 and 2. Also, do you guys have any speculation as to what happened to Robert Queen on Earth 2?  The last thing I remember was that he was the hood. I also know people hate the Flash Forwards but I actually think they are building to a place where Oliver will end up in the future recruiting Mia and her team, since the Monitor told Felicity in the finale of season 7 "Believe me, the world will need her as well"   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kfj3xucI8Xk (Date: 15 Oct 2019)    Episode: “Welcome to Hong Kong” [Season 8 Episode 2] Air Date: Tuesday, October 22, 2019  Summary: Oliver, John, Laurel, and Tatsu seek out an important person within The Monitor's plan.

Someone has been running around in a Green Arrow costume, attacking people. The members of Team Arrow are powerless to stop him if they want to maintain their secret identities. And, of course, Ricardo Diaz is coming back to town with an eye on payback and making sure Oliver pays for defeating him last season. https://www.cbr.com/arrow-season-7-trailer-heroes-in-prison/ Arrow Season 7: Shadowhunters' Katherine McNamara Joins Cast (Date: 21 Sept 2018) TVLine has learned exclusively that the actress is joining Arrow in a pivotal recurring role. According to sources, McNamara will appear during the first half of Season 7 as Maya, a scrappy street fighter and thief from Star City. The initial — and unofficial — casting notice for the character likened the character to “Buffy the Superhero Slayer.” https://tvline.com/2018/09/21/katherine-mcnamara-arrow-season-7-cast-maya/ Arrowverse Finds Its Lois Lane in Grimm Star (Date: 14 Sept 2018) The CW has cast Grimm star Elizabeth Tulloch to play the Daily Planet ace reporter in this December's three-show crossover between Supergirl, The Flash and Arrow. Previously, Tulloch played Juliette Silverton/Eve across all six seasons of Grimm. Her past credits also include Portlandia, The West Wing, The Artist, Parkland, Concussion and more. https://www.cbr.com/arrowverse-lois-lane-elizabeth-tulloch/ Arrowverse Casting Confirms Gotham City as Crossover Location (Date: 20 Sept 2018) Lost and Justified veteran Jeremy Davies will play Dr. John Deegan, a doctor at the notorious Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane, whose machinations draw Green Arrow, The Flash and Supergirl to Gotham. Although Gotham, the traditional stomping grounds of Batman, has been referenced on Arrow, DC's Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl, this will be the first time it's actually shown on the Arrowverse dramas. Fans are still left to wonder whether this is the Gotham on Earth One, home of Green Arrow and The Flash, or Earth-38, inhabited by Supergirl. While the introduction in the crossover of Batwoman, played by Ruby Rose, led to speculation that Gotham might finally make its debut — the city is even referenced in the character description — this is the first confirmation. https://www.cbr.com/arrowverse-crossover-gotham-city/ Arrowverse Crossover Adds Cassandra Jean Amell as Nora Fries (Date: 14 Sept 2018) The CW has just cast Cassandra Jean Amell (yes, the wife of Arrow star Stephen) in the role of Nora Fries. If that name sounds familiar to you, it's because Nora is the wife of Victor Fries, also known as the Batman villain Mister Freeze. No details were provided as to whether Amell's version of the character will be alive and well or in cryostasis at the time of her introduction. The customary character description was not provided, either, leaving the nature of her role (and presumably her husband's) a mystery. https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/09/14/arrowverse-crossover-adds-cassandra-jean-amell-as-nora-fries/ Arrowverse Crossover Casts The Monitor, Hints Elseworlds Will Be a Crisis (Date: 26 Sept 2018) The CW announced Designated Survivor star LaMonica Garrett has been cast as Mar Novu, “an extraterrestrial being of infinite power known as the Monitor,” in the Arrowverse's upcoming Elseworlds crossover. In the comics, the Monitor was essential to Crisis on Infinite Earths. Created by Marv Wolfman and George Perez in 1982's The New Teen Titans #21, the character was established to set up the events of Crisis. He is billions of years old, born as the living embodiment of the universe's positive matter; as such, he is the natural enemy of the Anti-Monitor, a being of anti-matter. The highly-anticipated crossover will air over three nights, starting on Sunday, Dec. 9 through Tuesday, Dec. 11. https://www.cbr.com/arrowverse-elseworlds-monitor-crisis/ Stephen Amell's First Arrowverse Crossover BTS Photo Teases New Costume (Date: 14 Sept 2018) The big Arrowverse crossover can't get here soon enough, and a new behind the scenes photo from Stephen Amell reveals he might be getting a new costume for it. The new photo shows Amell in the makeup chair, but he is sporting some bright green gel on his chest, neck, and face. It seems he is getting fitted for a mold, so now the question is what the new mask and suit will look like. He posted it with the caption "Officially started work on the crossover today." https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/09/14/stephen-amell-arrowverse-crossover-bts-photo-costume/   GENERAL DC NEWS:   Legends of Tomorrow Introduces More Misfits in New Trailer (Date: 26 Sept 2018) The trailer starts off with John Constantine (Matt Ryan) telling White Canary (Caity Lotz) to get ready for a new fight because “the darkness… it's rising,” which transitions into shots of what appear to be the Salem witch trials. The trailer then reveals that the team's composition will be changing. There's also fan-favorite Time Bureau Agent Gary Green (Adam Tsekhman) naked and claiming he's an “intern Legend,” a fairy godmother and a unicorn shooting a rainbow mist from its horn. https://www.cbr.com/legends-of-tomorrow-more-misfits-trailer/ Dominic Purcell Defends 'Legends of Tomorrow' as Not Being the Joke of the Arrowverse (Date: 22 Sept 2018) Purcell, who plays Mick Rory/Heatwave on the series which will debut its fourth season next month, took to Instagram on Saturday, sharing why he's proud to be part of Legends as well as why he's no longer accepting the show being treated like a "joke". "First season of @cw_legendsoftomorrow sucked," Purcell wrote. "We had to change it drastically. The writers, the creative team changed its course with a genius master stroke. Let's have fun with it!!!! ....Now we have a show that embraces the absurdity of the farce and the brilliant nature of its theme." "No longer will I accept this [slight] utterance that Legends is the in house joke that we are the ugly step sister in the @dccomics @warnerbrostv #arrowverse tv sh*t," Purcell wrote. "I know for a fact we are not seen as that within the corporate structure. So shut the f*ck up. We good. We handling our sh*t, we good. We family. We delivering." https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/09/23/legends-of-tomorrow-not-arrowverse-joke-dominic-purcell/   NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: (Date: 26 March 2018) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS4oNdZk9o0   Episode: “Guest Starring John Noble” [Season 3 Episode 17] Air Date: Monday, April 2, 2018 Summary: The Legends must fix two anachronisms at the same time to keep Mallus at bay and form an uneasy alliance with one of their enemies.
