Hello Legends! Yes, we can use that title this week. Thanks to Lex Luthor, part of our League gets transported to a different reality. One where John Stewart's childhood comic book heroes are real. The Justice Guild of America are a version of the Justice Society. The JGA and the League start fighting but end up as allies. They team up to fight the schemes of the Injustice Guild. But they cannot catch a break the villains get away and Flash and Black Siren are captured. Things are not what they seem. John is getting visions of a post-apocalyptic world. They keep seeing the same citizens. Then Hawkgirl finds the graves of the JGA members. Green Lantern is unwilling to believe it at first. They quickly find that the world is a facade. The junior Guild member, Ray, is not actually a boy. He is a mutated telepath. The world was the victim of a nuclear war. The Guild died in battle. But Ray recreated a golden age world with his childhood heroes. They fight a never-ending battle for Ray's amusement. After Green Lantern and Hawkgirl confront him he begins to attack the Guild and the League. The Guild give their lives to overpower Ray and the illusion is broken. The real people promise to rebuild. John powers up a portal made by Tom Turbine to transport them back to their reality.

I was delighted to catch up with Horrendas Darragh (guitar), Aaron (vox) and Mark (guitar) to talk about their brilliant new release Díoltas. An album that took four years to make and it certainly was worth the weight. A mixture of raw, heavy Blackened Metal that is not afraid to put in some hooks to pull in the mainstream Metal fans. We talk about the influence of having Josh Robinson producing and the lads give us an exclusive run down on each track. Even though the gigs have dried up Horrenda are still writing, creating new material and we get an insight into what they've planned for the next few months. Enjoy and don't forget to subscribe.

"Fadeout" for the final time as the Arrow television series comes to a close. Some things have changed in Star City and some things have stayed the same. But the biggest difference that everyone is feeling right now is that Oliver Queen is truly dead. His friends and family have come to mourn his passing. Sara Lance even brings Mia from the future to honor her father's memory. But as they try to cope with their loss, a man once captured by Green Arrow tries to exact his revenge by kidnapping young William. The team scours the city looking for him and contemplating their futures. Once Mia saves the day, they say their final farewell to both Oliver and the vigilante life they have been leading for all these years. Their futures may be up in the air, but in the actual future true love gets its happy ending. Jay and Josh bid adieu to the show that started it all on the series finale of Green Justice: An Arrow Podcast!
It's 2040, do you know where "Green Arrow and the Canaries" are? Oliver's mantle is left in good hands. Laurel Lance, whose pre-Crisis memory is fully restored, patrols the future and discovers that if Bianca Bertinelli dies, Star City is doomed to plunge back into a crime filled city. She let's Dinah Drake in on the dark destiny and they decide to find Mia Queen, the city's sweet socialite, who has just become engaged to JJ Diggle. Everything is looking just dandy for the children of all our heroes. But when Laurel gives Mia her memories back, it plunges her into the vigilante life again. They go looking for Bianca, but the heir to the Arrow mantle becomes suspicious, even of her fiancé. Luckily, the skills of the three ladies is enough to make the rescue. But they also uncover a secret plot and a mysterious hooded figure gives JJ his dark memories back too. Looks like a Star City paradise may be short lived. Jay and Josh try to buy a piano bar but realize they can't sing well in any multiverse on this week's Green Justice: An Arrow Podcast! Listen in and justice will be served...to your MP3 player!
"Crisis on Infinite Earths" parts 4 and 5 picks up 10,000 years before the midseason finale where we find Mar Novu conducting the time experiment that released the Anti-Monitor and destroyed the Multiverse. The seven Paragons work to find a way to bring back everyone everywhere by traveling back and stopping it before it starts. They will need help from Oliver Queen, who is now in the form of the Spectre. After an epic battle and an epic sacrifice, everything seems to have reappeared. But there is one, very big difference: There is now a prime Earth where our heroes can easily join together to fight any menace that comes their way. And the first one they'll have to defeat is the Anti-Monitor. Jay and Josh will not fail this multiverse in the grandiose conclusion of Crisis on this week's Green Justice: An Arrow Podcast!

"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.

While the costume may look nearly identical to the one worn by Shipp during his first go-round as The Flash in 1990 and 1991, Guggenheim credited The Flash costume designer Kate Main with "pulling off this miracle," developing a costume that looked like the original but presumably did not leave Shipp as miserable as that one did. https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/10/23/new-john-wesley-shipp-as-the-flash-photo-revealed-for-arrowverse/ Arrowverse "Elseworlds" Crossover: First Look at the Monitor Revealed (Date: 23 Oct 2018) The Monitor is coming to the Arrowverse and a new batch of set photos has revealed a first glimpse at the character in live action. The Monitor was a central figure in the classic DC Comics story Crisis on Infinite Earths, which became the template for the superhero event series. In the "Elseworlds" crossover, he is played by LaMonica Garrett. https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/10/23/arrowverse-elseworlds-crossover-monitor/ NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: (Date: 22 Oct 2018) https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/arrow/arrow-oliver-fights-for-his-life-in-the-new-promo-for-season-7-episode-3-crossing-lines-a164282 Episode: “Crossing Lines” [Season 7 Episode 3] Air Date: Monday, October 29, 2018 Summary: Still in prison, Oliver faces his biggest challenge yet.

What was the link to the episode's name? Oliver agrees to admit to the FBI that he is the Green Arrow in exchange for the FBI giving everyone immunity and helping take back the city Fight scenes and stunts FBI and Team Arrow take back the SPCD Arrows take out sentries Canary cry; bo staff T-spheres; Curtis beats people up FBI, Diggle, and Rene with guns Oliver kicks butt No Diaz or Anatoly To address Anatoly gave them No guards Watson, Rene, and other FBI agent in room, laser tripwires; bombs Felicity - hackety hack, radio signals, blah, blah, blah Diaz calls Anatoly; Diaz triggers bombs Rene goes back and gets FBI agent Everyone runs out; building goes boom Chemical plant Diaz ready to shoot Laurel; boom FBI and Team Arrow charge in Guns and booms and arrows Laurel and Dinah help Quentin get out; Canary and Siren screams; Dinah bo staff, Laurel gun Oliver and Diaz fight: night, rain; Oliver took time because wrist has digital sniffer thing; Oliver rams him with arrow Siren screams Diaz into the river; Oliver pissed Oliver Queen / Green Arrow Apology tour - why does he have to apologize? To Diggle, yes. But to the newbies? No. Gives Diggle a Green Arrow suit Rene - thought thug at first; judged you too much; you're a good man Quentin - trust me; I feel bad about Laurel 1, so I will protect Laurel 2; reminisce about arrest, lie detector Dinah - Please keep Black Siren safe; you've done a great thing putting vengeance aside With info, FBI can take city back Hospital: tells Quentin he learned how to be a good father because of him Arrested. To camera, “I am the Green Arrow.” Gives speech about how he needs to take responsibility, but the city is strong and needs to keep fighting; Star City still needs saving If escapes, will arrest everyone Says good-bye to William; has Lyla put Felicity and William in protective custody until Diaz caught Felicity Smoak / Overwatch So much easier using FBI computers when you have access Can track a pacemaker To Oliver - what's going on? Has escape plan John Diggle / Spartan There should only be one Green Arrow At ARGUS Curtis Holt / Mr. Terrific Did stuff Dinah Drake / Black Canary I respect you so much, Oliver. You put together a team of heroes Rene Ramirez / Wild Dog While in tripwired room, calls Zoe What you just said means a lot to me, Oliver Quentin Lance Diaz threatens Laurel; Diaz wants him to kick FBI out of city Tells Oliver about pacemaker Goes to Diaz, proof of life, doesn't follow Watson's orders Not in immunity agreement Takes a bullet for Laurel “Don't call me ‘Hoss' at my funeral” Figures out Oliver gave himself to FBI Agent Watson In charge of FBI; insists on taking control of Star City Black Siren is a criminal; not a hostage Arrests everyone on Diaz's list Laurel Lance / Black Siren Locked up by Diaz and has collar Called Sara; tells Sara she is not like her Laurel Ricardo Diaz / Richard Dragon Called in the Longbow Hunters - 3 guys - League afraid of them 'Arrow': Who Are the Longbow Hunters? (17 May 2018) [http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/05/17/arrow-season-6-finale-longbow-hunters/] A team of supervillains who debuted Green Arrow (Vol. 5) #31 from July 2014 in the storyline "The Outsiders War, Book 6: Spoils of War". The volume was part of DC's New 52 era. Created by Jeff Lemire, the Longbow Hunters was assembled by Richard Dragon -- that would be Ricardo Diaz's comic book counterpart -- and was comprised of Count Vertigo, Brick, Red Dart, and Killer Moth. Black Siren sends him into the river Alive Anatoly Gets caught being Oliver's ally Surrenders; tells Oliver about Diaz meeting Longbow Hunters What we got right - Quentin dying by saving Black Siren Oliver lost (Diaz didn't win, which is what Michelle thought would happen) Oliver out as GA, prison (Chris) Team Arrow kisses and makes up to fight Diaz Didn't like? Episode and/or whole season Michelle: Sara in episode for less than 3 minutes; what was the point? How come the FBI didn't help Star City until now? Is the US government awful in the Arrowverse? Lame “Captain America: Civil War” ripoff storyline. How did Diaz do all of this? SP - “Hoss” I mean really. I hate that term and how much it's used. Also. All if forgiven between Rene and Oliver? Longbow hunters. Really? Out of nowhere? And we didn't get to see them much I don't see how this could have been a series finale Little to no Flashbacks. We knew this going in but it really hurt the series No funeral for Quentin...and it's not really even possible. Memorial, yes. Funeral. No. So who is the Star City Mayor? Agent Watson? Seems self-serving No shirtless scenes So Oliver spends the entire season in prison or even part of it and gets out….then what? He is outed as The Green Arrow. “You have failed this city” missing a bit What happened with the startup? Fractured Team Dinah Ruined Wedding in the Cross-over (reception in cross-over) Chris - Black Siren arc was dumb all season long. Redemption arc i never bought into. Wasted guest appearance by Sara. How does she miss getting to see her Dad, she has a timeship? Nobody cares about secret identities anymore. Forgetting that Ollie is a competent fighter. He doesn't need a team. no mention of Talia all season no deaths of consequence when Lian Yu blew up. Rene got ruined in dumb civil war Did like? Episode and/or whole season Michelle - The last two episodes had a lot of action; Anatoly's alive; Thea had a good exit; Diggle and Lyla SP E2 Laurel Lantz/Black Siren - Katie Cassidy Ricardo Diaz/Dragon - Kirk Acevedo James Caden - Michael Emerson Sister Wives/Nyssa al Ghul - Katrina Law Cross Over (because of LoT and Supergirl) Tommy Merlyn/Christopher Chance - Colin Donnell/Wil Traval Chris - Crossover was fantastic Slade and Nyssa return Setup for Supermax story. It could be great. S7 predictions? Michelle - Roy comes back, first words are “Thea sent me.” Diaz gets captured quickly; otherwise, Felicity will be gone too long, and the show can't be without Felicity and Oliver most of the season. Diggle head of ARGUS, Roy, and NTA not enough to carry show; has to be resolved by crossover or the crossover deals with this mess. There has to be a better villain or maybe not one big bad all season. SP - Oliver gets roughed up in Prison Oliver gets out of prison and puts on the hood again Oliver beats up bad guys and defeats Diaz / Unknown enemy CW cancels Arrow….and maybe some other shows. Chris - Diggle is Green Arrow and Roy comes back to support him when he hears Ollie is in jail. Ollie is out of jail in 2-3 episodes. If they have balls it will be at least ⅓ the season even ½. presidential pardon for the crossover NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: (Date: 31 Oct 2017) https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/legends_of_tomorrow/legends-of-tomorrow-its-vampire-hunting-season-in-new-promo-for-season-3-episode-5-return-of-the-mack-a154935 Episode: “Return of the Mack” [Season 3 Episode 5] Air Date: Tuesday, November 7. 2017 Summary: The Legends run into Rip in 1897 London where they attempt to hunt down a time-traveling vampire.

Diggle late Parade of Perjurers: Dr. Elisa Schwartz: I didn't see who GA was when BC injured Diggle: 2012-16 I was his bodyguard, kept him safe. List of strange injuries. Dinah: Drug dealer she killed in Hub City; she pleads the 5th Felicity: Oliver tries to stop her from testifying; she does anyway; Van Owen brings up that he dad's the Calculator, and if she wasn't aware that her father had a secret, then she maybe she doesn't know about Oliver; lies about not committing cyber crime Oliver: Roy Harper not a vigilante; I know who GA is, but won't reveal identity, even if he has to go to jail; has to tell the truth about not being on Lian Yu for the whole 5 years; if lied to public about those 5 years, then lying now “Tommy Merlyn” bursts in during Oliver's testimony (cool and dramatic, but falling glass could have hurt people) “Tommy Merlyn” - I am Green Arrow; I don't want someone else to ruin their life to protect me.

This brief programming change is largely due to what's airing before Arrow, with Supernatural being replaced by a one-hour special titled "Tough Mudder: Tougher Together". This means that "The Thanatos Guild", the sixteenth episode of this season, will presumably be airing a week later, on March 22nd. While details on this episode are scarce, we know that it will be part of Roy's short multi-episode arc, which is expected to have a major effect on one Arrow mainstay. And if that wasn't enough, the episode will also feature the return appearance of Nyssa al Ghul (Katrina Law), who was last seen in the season five finale. http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/02/23/arrow-season-6-episode-16-roy-harper-air-date/ GENERAL DC NEWS: Jonah Hex Confirmed for 'Legends of Tomorrow' Season 3 Finale (Date: 20 Feb 2018) Jonah Hex (Johnathon Schaech) will return to DC's Legends of Tomorrow for its season 3 finale, ComicBook.com has confirmed. Warner Bros. Television confirmed the speculation, but had no comment as to what role Hex might play in the episode. http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/02/20/jonah-hex-confirmed-for-legends-of-tomorrow-season-3-finale/ Chris The Flash's Violett Beane to appear on Legends of Tomorrow (Date: 21 Feb 2018) The Flash‘s Violett Beane, a.k.a. Jesse Quick, will make an appearance in the 15th episode of Legends of Tomorrow, EW has learned. Details on what brings her to the Waverider are being kept under wraps, but the episode in question is titled “Necromancing the Stone.” Her arrival comes on the heels of Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) joining the Legends — he briefly appeared at the close of Monday's episode as Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) set out to recruit him. Beane will also return to The Flash in the Tuesday, March 6 episode, teaming up with the Scarlet Speedster and Jay Garrick (John Wesley Shipp) to stop a nuclear bomb from destroying Central City. http://ew.com/tv/2018/02/21/flash-violett-beane-legends-of-tomorrow/ Legends of Tomorrow: John Noble will actually appear — but there's a twist! (Date: 19 Feb 2018) EW has learned exclusively that the actor, who has been voicing this season's big bad Mallus, will appear as himself in an upcoming episode of Legends. Yes, as himself. Seriously. As EW previously revealed, the time demon Mallus will be an entirely CG creation, hence Noble appearing in a different capacity. http://ew.com/tv/2018/02/19/legends-of-tomorrow-john-noble-spoilers/ NEXT EPISODE Part 2: Promo for Next Week's Episode Link to Promo: (Date: 8 Feb 2018) http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/02/09/arrow-season-6-episode-14-collision-course-promo Episode: “Collision Course” [Season 6 Episode 14] Air Date: Thursday, March 1, 2018 Summary: Oliver, Diggle and Felicity disagree with Dinah, Curtis and Rene on how to handle Black Siren. The two teams face off and a fight ensues.

Following the departure of Franz Drameh and Victor Garber, Keiynan Lonsdale has joined the cast of DC's Legends of Tomorrow as a series regular, EW has learned. Executive producer Phil Klemmer said in a statement, “We loved working with Keiynan in our series premiere — the episode in which we learned that in between seasons 2 and 3 he had been fighting crime in Central City with Nick Zano's Nate Heywood. So when his character stepped away from Flash to go on walkabout, after being dumped and feeling somewhat estranged from his family and team, we knew that Wally West would fit in perfectly on Legends. After all, our show is about a collection of unlikely heroes who all began their journeys questioning who they are and where they belong — only to find those answers while traveling through time and having wacky adventures. So now, Wally West is not only back in the company of old friends from the Arrowverse, he's fighting alongside a former enemy and career arsonist Mick Rory/Dom Purcell. By the end of this season, Wally will learn that the Legends have a different definition of what it means to be a hero.” http://ew.com/tv/2018/01/19/legends-of-tomorrow-adds-keiynan-lonsdale-as-series-regular/ NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: (Date: 01 Feb 2018) http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/02/02/arrow-season-6-episode-13-the-devils-greatest-trick/ Episode: “The Devil's Greatest Trick” [Season 6 Episode 13] Air Date: Thursday, February 8, 2018 Summary: Cayden James launches a full out attack when he uncovers a secret about the Green Arrow that puts him over the edge.

In the promo, Dinah Drake, Curtis Holt and Rene Ramirez go on to form their own super team. However, this quickly leads to strife with Oliver's original team, who stands by his side. In addition to fighting James' team, Oliver will ultimately come to blows with his former recruits. The teaser also contains a few other surprising reveals, such as Oliver's daring rescue of his son William and William's trip to the bunker. https://www.cbr.com/arrow-season-6-midseason-trailer/ CW boss 'optimistic' that Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, and Legends will return (Date: 07 Jan 2018) Network president Mark Pedowitz is “optimistic” that Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, and DC's Legends of Tomorrow will return next season, he told EW at the Television Critics Association's winter press tour Sunday. “At the moment, it's a little too soon. We're noted for announcing at winter TCA that we're picking up shows, we just weren't ready to do that yet. A couple more weeks [and] we'll probably get around to it. I'm pretty confident we'll see them all back.” http://ew.com/tv/2018/01/07/arrow-flash-supergirl-legends-tomorrow-renewals/ Could The Huntress Return?(Date: 19 Jan 2018) When Oliver asked why Jerry couldn't just ask his cousin, Helena Bertinelli/Huntress (Jessica De Gouw) for help, Jerry remarked that she'd "gone underground." "I want to say, 'Absolutely,'" executive producer Marc Guggenheim said about Huntress' potential return. "Jessica De Gouw has expressed an absolute willingness to come back. Jessica's a favorite actor of mine, and the Huntress is a favorite character of mine. I want to make it happen in Season 6. We've got some plans for the later half of the year that I think she will fit into really well, so we'll see." http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/01/19/arrow-season-6-episode-10-the-huntress-helena-bertinelli/ GENERAL DC NEWS: Legends of Tomorrow adds Keiynan Lonsdale as series regular (Date: 19 Jan 2018) Welcome to the Waverider, Kid Flash!

The jacket has a gauge on the left shoulder, not unlike the one worn by Firestorm. He also wears a pair of goggles, with black eye makeup underneath to obscure his face so that he won't be easily recognizable. The costume is likely of Cisco's design, since it will have to stretch and conform to Dibney's metahuman abilities. https://www.cbr.com/the-flash-elongated-man-costume-2/ Arrow Cast and Crew Interviews: Arrow's Echo Kellum Reveals Why the Stakes Are Higher Than Ever Before (Date: 18 Jan 2018) Speaking to CBR, Mr. Terrific himself Echo Kellum offered some insight into how Team Arrow's big split will affect his character moving forward. Fortunately for fans, the divide won't impact Curtis' happy-go-lucky attitude, though it will bring a lot of conflict into his relationship with his business partner Felicity Smoak. Kellum also teased his favorite scene from the midseason premiere, shared his hopes for Curtis' love life and explained why Cayden James' supervillain team will raise the stakes like never before. https://www.cbr.com/arrow-echo-kellum-divided-interview/ Arrow's Echo Kellum Talks The Importance of Black Superheroes (Date: 18 Jan 2018) "I think for myself and for Curtis, it is something we're both very proud of," Kellum told ComicBook.com. "I'm so proud and I feel so fortunate to get to portray a hero like this, an inclusive hero, you know, part of the LGBT community, a person of color who's a person of, you know, endless optimism and positivity. And it's a role that I love to play and as far as Curtis, I know he takes a lot of pride in that, too, you know? "I personally, I feel like, you know, what a time to be alive where, you know, I get to see so many people, I can be on TV, I get to portray that," he said. "I get to help people of color, people of the LGBTQIA community so like they can do it too. And for me, that was so important growing up” http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/01/19/arrow-black-lightning-echo-kellum-black-superheroes/ NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: (Date: 18 Jan 2018) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNXBYnNQjLU Episode: “We Fall” [Season 6 Episode 11] Air Date: Thursday, January 25, 2018 Summary: William gets caught in the cross hairs as Oliver attempts to stop Cayden James with just the original Team Arrow.

ARROW NEWS: Here's How Much The 'Arrow' Costume Costs ToMake (Date: 10 Dec 2017) During a recent panel at ACE Comic Con Long Island, Arrowshowrunner Marc Guggenheim was asked just how much it costs to produce Oliver Queen/Green Arrow's (Stephen Amell) costume. As he revealed, each new version of the suit costs around $5,000. The topic of Arrowverse costumes - and their price tag - have come up quite a bit in recent years. Most notably, Ray Palmer/The Atom's mech suit seems to be the most expensive, with a 2015 report saying that it costs $189,000. Legends executive producer Phil Klemmer said, "The only challenge is how expensive his costume costs, and the danger that we actually injure him doing stunts, because his costume actually costs not just more than a car — more than, like, your average American home. "So the scariest thing about Atom is I'm thinking, like, 'When do you use a digital double, and when do you use Brandon?'" http://comicbook.com/dc/2017/12/10/arrow-tv-show-costume-cost-marc-guggenheim-the-cw/ 'Arrow' Showrunner Says Both Booster Gold and Blue Beetle Have Been Talked About (Date: 09 Dec 2017) During the DCTV panel at ACE Comic Con in Long Island this weekend, a fan asked if Blue Bettle and Booster Gold had ever been considered, especially since Kord Industries has been mentioned multiple times and it turns out, they have. "I will say, both those characters [Booster Gold and Blue Beetle] are characters we've talked about," Guggenheim said. "Originally Ray Palmer, who was introduced on Arrow, he was supposed to be Ted Kord and we went another way. So, you know, Booster and Blue Beetle, all the 'B' characters really, we're always talking about but nothing I can announce or speak to at the moment." Of course, Blue Bettle and Booster Gold aren't the only characters Guggenheim has considered bringing into the Arrowverse. Guggenheim said earlier in his panel that he would really like to see The Question appear on Arrow. http://comicbook.com/dc/2017/12/09/arrow-marc-guggenheim-blue-beetle-booster-gold/ GENERAL DC NEWS: Legends of Tomorrow loses another team member (Date: 05 Dec 2017) It should come as no surprise that just one episode after the death of Stein, Jax has decided to leave the Waverider — and EW can confirm that Franz Drameh has exited DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Though Jax will no longer be a regular face on the Waverider as a Legend, the door is open for the character to pop up again in the future. http://ew.com/tv/2017/12/05/legends-of-tomorrow-franz-drameh-exit/ Supergirl to Turn Monday Time Slot Over to Legends for 9 Weeks (Date: 08 Dec 2017) The CW has announced that DC's Legends of Tomorrow will thus resume Season 3 on Monday, Feb. 12 at 8 pm, where it will finish up its season with nine straight episodes (landing its finale on April 9). Supergirl will then swoop back into its Monday home starting April 16, and air new episodes straight through to its own Season 3 finale, which will now air outside of May sweeps (on June 18). All told, that adds up to 23 straight weeks of original Supergirl/Legends/Supergirl episodes airing in The CW's Mondays-at-8 time slot. http://tvline.com/2017/12/08/legends-of-tomorrow-season-3-return-date-supergirl-time-slot-mondays/ Exclusive: Current 'Arrowverse' Character to Replace Firestorm on 'Legends of Tomorrow' (Date: 08 Dec 2017) According to executive producer Marc Guggenheim, "a previously established character from the Arrowverse" will be stepping in to replace Firestorm on Legends. "We do have a plan for how to replace Firestorm on the bridge, and it's a really cool one. It's one we're really excited about." Guggenheim continued, "There's really like two empty chairs on the Waverider. So we do have a game plan. We've always had a game plan. I just can't talk about the game plan. The CW publicity will determine when we get to unleash that bit of news." One strong possibility fans are hoping for is Matt Ryan's Constantine. Another popular option amongst fans would be Kid Flash himself, Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale). http://comicbook.com/dc/2017/12/08/legends-of-tomorrow-firestorm-replacement-character/ NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: (Date: 10 Oct 2017) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1Rr_aVcojI Episode: “Aruba-Con” [Season 3 Episode 1] Air Date: Tuesday, October 10, 2017 Summary: When the Time Bureau relieves the Legends of duty, they must steal back the Waverider when Julius Caesar is spotted in Aruba.

Starling Tribune – ONE SHOT – Justice League 2017 (A CW Network Arrow Television Show Fan Podcast) ST177 The Official Arrow and Green Arrow Podcast of the Gonna Geek Network Covering DC Comics and CW Based DC Comic TV Shows JUSTICE LEAGUE Release date: November 17, 2017 (United States) Reported budget: $300 million Running time: 120 minutes Produced by: Charles Roven, Deborah Snyder, Jon Berg, and Geoff Johns Director: Zack Snyder (with help from Joss Whedon) Writing Credits: Screenplay by: Chris Terrio and Joss Whedon Story by: Chris Terrio & Zack Snyder Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster Justice League of America created by Gardner Fox Batman created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger Wonder Woman created by William Moulton Marston Fourth World created by Jack Kirby - Jack Kirby's Fourth World is a turn of phrase commonly attributed to a family of titles created in the 1970s by writer/illustrator Jack Kirby. When Jack Kirby returned to working for DC Comics in the 1970s, he introduced what would become known as the Fourth World concept. He created a science-fiction based mythology revolving around ancient space deities known as the New Gods. Similar to the gods of Earth lore, the New Gods were larger than life, possessing fantastic powers, which they used in a never-ending struggle between good and evil. Fourth World characters include Steppenwolf and Darkseid. (http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Jack_Kirby%27s_Fourth_World) MAIN CAST Ben Affleck - Batman / Bruce Wayne, Henry Cavill - Superman / Clark Kent Amy Adams - Lois Lane Gal Gadot - Wonder Woman / Diana Prince Ezra Miller - The Flash / Barry Allen Jason Momoa - Aquaman / Arthur Curry Ray Fisher - Cyborg / Victor Stone Jeremy Irons - Alfred Diane Lane - Martha Kent Connie Nielsen - Queen Hippolyta J.K.

Getting the band together (Unlike Marvel, they don't call themselves the Justice League) Basic plot Steppenwolf has been able to come back to Earth and wants to find the three mother boxes; once the boxes are united, the world can be conquered and The past Steppenwolf tried to conquer Earth before, but the united armies of Amazons (with help from the Gods), Atlanteans, humans, and Green Lanterns beat him (LotRstyle). They spilt the Mother Boxes, hiding and protecting them. One is in Atlantis, one is on Themyscira, and the humans buried the third. Bruce Wayne / Batman Been Batman for 20 years – getting tired Feels guilty about Superman's death Uses guy's fear to lure a creature (find out later it's a Parademon) Need to recruitothers to fight invasion Comes up with plan to resurrect Superman; the world needs hope and the team needs more firepower What's his super power?

It can feel we're not keeping the integrity of Wild Dog the same, especially by changing his look.” On a practical level, Gonzalez says working with the new outfit has its challenges: “Oh, it's definitely harder.

Unfortunately for them, most of those characters have tried to kill them, but they'll (hopefully) find a new ally in the form of Matt Ryan's John Constantine. While we're still awaiting the first hi-res image of Ryan's chain-smoking anti-hero, series creator Marc Guggenheim has sharedan early look of the Hellblazer hanging out in the Waverider with Ray Palmer. https://www.cbr.com/constantine-legends-of-tomorrow-photo/ Legends OfTomorrow: Is This The Last We'll See Of Captain Cold? (Date: 05 Nov 2017) When season three of Legends was announced, we learned that Miller would return again in yet a different variation on Snart. That's the joy of doing a time travel show. But in a recent Instagram post, Miller put up a thank you letter that makes it sound like this will be his last time in the goggles and parka. The note reads, "Currently shooting some of my final episodes as “Captain Cold/Leonard Snart” on the CW's LEGENDS OF TOMORROW and THE FLASH…Grateful – now and in advance – to a pair of talented casts and hardworking crews… Thank you…I've had a tremendous time playing this character… It's been an opportunity, an education, and a f-ckingblast…With love and respect. -W.M. https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/11/05/legends-of-tomorrow-is-this-the-last-well-see-of-captain-cold/ Supergirl: Reign's Costume Revealed in New Photo (Date: 30Oct 2017) Reign has arrived on Supergirl. The CW has just revealed a first look at the Season 3 big bad in her costume, which serves as a dark mirror to the Girl of Steel's own. Befitting of any villain, Reign's costume is completely black, though it seems to be made of the same material as Supergirl's She also has a shield on her chest, but it contains a skull instead of the House of El's“S” symbol. However, that's where the similarities end; Reign's costume is far more armored, with bladed gauntlets, shoulder protection and a pointed metal hair piece. https://www.cbr.com/supergirl-reign-costume-reveal/ Arrow Cast And Crew Interviews Arrow's David Ramsey: Diggle's Secret Will Have 'Ripple Effects' for All — Plus, Scoop on [Spoiler]'s Introduction (Date: 01 Nov 2017) Just as John Diggle gets better acclimated to his new role as Green Arrow, multiple threats — including a familiar-ishone — will surface over the coming weeks.

We'll also see Dark Arrow, Dark Flash, and Overgirl. Alas, there are no plans for Josh Segarra to return as Prometheus, which raises the question: Who is under that mask? http://ew.com/tv/2017/09/29/arrow-prometheus-crossover/ ArrowverseCrossover Set Photo Appears to Show A Double Wedding (Date: 11 Oct 2017) We knew Barry Allen and Iris West would tie the knot in this year's huge Arrowversecrossover, but a set photo suggests pair of Arrow character may get hitched at the same time. The set photo has Grant Gustin and Candice Patton dressed to the nines on their big day, but the surprisingly part is that Stephen Amell and Emily Bett Rickards are right alongside them, with Amell's Oliver Queen apparently placing a ring on the finger of Felicity's finger. http://www.cbr.com/arrowverse-crossover-photo-oliver-felicity-married/ Arrow Introduces DC Comics' Onyx in Season 6 (Date: 06 month year) The third episode of Arrow‘s sixth season is set to bring in another character from DC Comics: Onyx. A member of the League of Assassins, Onyx decides to give up taking lives to become a vigilante — she's typically an ally of Batman in the comics. The official synopsis of the episode reveals that Onyx will be played by Chastity Dotson (Pitch, Veronica Mars). Her character will lead a rogue black-ops team to break into Kord Industries. It's likely that she'll run into Oliver Queen and Team Arrow during her mission to retrieving a deadly item. http://www.cbr.com/arrow-season-6-onyx/ Arrow's Season 6 Sizzle Reel Teases Deathstroke'sEye Injury (Date: 10 Oct 2017) A new sizzle reel for the sixth season of the CW's Arrow teases a major moment for the Wilson family. The video introduces Arrow fans to Liam Hall, who will play Joe Wilson, the son of Slade Wilson, otherwise known as the international assassin Deathstroke. It looks like Joe will be on the hunt for revenge, specifically against the man who took his father's eye – Oliver Queen, the Green Arrow himself. http://www.cbr.com/arrow-season-6-sizzle-reel-deathstroke-eye/ Arrow's EP On Prometheus' Victim, Arsenal's Return & Vigilante's True Identity (Date: 12 Oct 2017) CBR spoke with showrunner Wendy Mericle about what she and the rest of her crew have in store for Team Arrow in Season 6. While she wouldn't offer so much as a clue regarding which character met their final fate, Mericle was more than happy to discuss the possibility of seeing Black Siren achieve some level of redemption this season, and hoe excited she is for Roy Harper to return n to Star City. And, she promises, fans can expect a definite answer to a question that's been haunting Oliver and company when the show reveals Vigilante's secret identity once and for all. http://www.cbr.com/arrow-interview-wendy-mericle-vigilante-arsenal-deathstroke/ GENERAL DC TV NEWS Victor Garber to Leave DC's Legends of Tomorrow (Date: 11 Oct 2017) Garber – who plays Martin Stein, one half of Firestorm – will be exiting DC's Legends of Tomorrow during the current season. His departure has been rumored for some months now, and seemed imminent once it was revealed in September that he'd be returning to Broadway in Hello, Dolly! The report states that Garber's exit has been planned meticulously to give Stein a fitting send-off. It's also said he'll remain a series regular throughout the third season, which premiered last night, though he's not likely to return for episodes beyond those he's already filmed. This means Jaxwill need to find another half to remain as the hero Firestorm. http://www.cbr.com/victor-garber-leaves-dcs-legends-of-tomorrow/ Matt Ryan to Reprise 'Constantine' Role for 2-Part 'Legends of Tomorrow' Arc (Date: 09 Oct 2017) Matt Ryan will reprise his role of demon hunter John Constantine for a two-episode arc on Legends of Tomorrow this season. He will appear in episodes nine and 10 of Legends of Tomorrow season three, which will take place chronologically after his appearance on Arrow and involve a confrontation with the Big Bad. According to executive producer Phil Klemmer, "We knew that an alienated, chain-smoking, bisexual, world-weary demonologist would feel right at home among our Legends." http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/matt-ryan-constantine-legends-tomorrow-2-part-arc-1047123 Constantine Lights Up With First Look At Animated Series(Date: 08 Oct 2017) John Constantine smokes a cigarette or two, and uses some mild profanity, in the action-filled first look at his upcoming animated series from CW Seed. Debuted at New York Comic Con, the preview shows Matt Ryan, star of NBC's live-action Constantine, return to his role as DC Comics' fan-favorite magician and con man. Constantine certainly appears to be in classic form, as in the sneak peek he's invited several demons to an unconsecrated church, under false pretenses, naturally, where they're to be feasted upon by something else. http://www.cbr.com/constantine-animated-series-preview/ Legends of Tomorrow: The Dominators Return – With A Twist (Date: 13 Oct 2017) This Halloween, The CW's ragtag band of time-traveling outcasts will encounter a familiar extraterrestrial race when The Dominators return. According to the synopsis for episode four, aptly titled “Phone Home,” the Legends are still dealing with the ramifications of damaging the timeline last season. Now, with Ray's fate hanging in the balance, the team is forced to travel back in time where they discover that a young Dr. Palmer has an even younger Dominator in his possession, which naturally piques the interest of not only the U.S. Government, but the baby alien's protective mother. http://www.cbr.com/legends-of-tomorrow-dominators-return-atom/ Legends of Tomorrow Sizzle Reel Unleashes Grodd(and Vampires) (Date: 09 Oct 2017) A new sizzle reel for the upcoming third season of DC's Legends of Tomorrow has been released. The video kicks off right where the second season of Legends left off, with the team having returned to the present day only to find that the world has been overrun with dinosaurs. From there, the reel gets to teasing all the big moments set to debut in season three. The sizzle reel also teases some upcoming episode plots, like a trip to the circus and… Vietnam, where Gorilla Groddmakes an appearance. Then there's the vampires, which look to play a rather large role in the show's third season. The video's end teases the return of Damian Darhk (Neal McDonough). http://www.cbr.com/dc-legends-of-tomorrow-sizzle-reel/ The Flash: Barry & Iris Undergo Therapy in Upbeat Season 4 Trailer (Date: 11 Oct 2017) The footage shows that working together on Team Flash will require Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Iris West (Candice Patton) to attend couples therapy, though the scene is definitely more humorous than one might first expect. The trailer also shows Danny Trejo as Breacherand Neil Sandilands as The Thinker/Clifford DeVoe. http://www.cbr.com/the-flash-barry-iris-couples-counceling/ The Flash Showrunner Teases Barry Allen's Season 4 Rebirth (Date: 10 Oct 2017) Showrunner Todd Helbing spoke with CBR about what, exactly, Barry's rebirth will entail. We also dug into Caitlin Snow's continuing identity crisis, the series' take on classic DC comics hero the Elongated Man, and the unique threat the Thinker brings to Central City. http://www.cbr.com/the-flash-showrunner-season-4-rebirth-barry-allen/ The Flash boss teases lighter season 4 (Date: 03 Oct 2017) EW's interview with executive producer Andrew Kreisberg. Discusses Barry and Iris's relationship, Barry's rebirth, The Thinker's motivations, Caitlin Snow's journey, plans for Wells, and Cisco and Gypsy. http://ew.com/tv/2017/10/03/flash-season-4-premiere-spoilers/ FEEDBACK The Starling Tribune @StarlingTribune Oct 12 - The whole hour could've been @JulianaHarkavy & @MzKatieCassidy fighting & I would be happy.

Emmy-Winner Michael Emerson Boards Arrow for S6 (Date: 22 July 2017) a.

Arrow Showrunner Addresses Olicity In Season 6 (Date: 24 July 2017) a. Executive producer Marc Guggenheim said during an interview at Comic Con International with Comicbook, “I'm going to give a very unsatisfying answer to the Olicity fans,which is that we sort of set Oliver and Felicity on a certain trajectory starting with 520, and you saw a little bit of it in 523. We're continuing it. I will say that the events of the finale did throw a little bit of a wrench into their slow rekindling of their relationship.” b. http://comicbook.com/2017/07/24/arrow-olicity-season-6/ 3. Spoiler Room: Scoop on Game of Thrones, Arrow, Westworld, and more (Date: 20 July 2017) a. Do you have any scoop on the new villain (or villains) on Arrow next season? — Here's a little teaser: “As usual, every season we want to try to up the stakes and do something different,” EP Wendy Mericle tells me. “This will be something we've never seen before. The villain will be hopefully as dynamic and as interesting as the ones we've had in the past. These people, or this person, won't just be somebody that's a thorn in Oliver's side, but it'll effect the whole team personally and very directly.” Could Cayden James and Helix be the culprits she speaks of? “You never know,” Mericle says. “They are still in the wind. We don't like to leave those threads dangling.” b. http://ew.com/tv/2017/07/20/spoiler-room-game-thrones-arrow-westworld/ 4. One Fan-Favorite Arrow Character Will Receive Flashbacks In Season 6 (Date: 26 July 2017) a. Marc Guggenheim has revealed that a fan-favorite character will receive flashbacks for the very first time in Season 6. In an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con, Guggenheim had this to say about Season 6, “You're gonna still see flashbacks. It won't be every episode and it won't be serialized. They'll be character specific and I'll give you one example... as you saw in the trailer Manu Bennett is back for the season premiere and he's also coming back for a special two-part episode in the first half of the season where we're really going to be focusing hard on his character, post everything he's experienced on the show and we intend to do a Slade Wilson flashback story.” b. http://www.cinemablend.com/television/1685200/one-fan-favorite-arrow-character-will-receive-flashbacks-in-season-6 5. ARROW Season 6 SDCC '17 Trailer Finds Oliver Queen In A Brand New Role (Date: 22 July 2017) a. The Arrow season 6 trailer reveals that Slade made it off Lian Yu before Prometheus' trap could blast him to smithereens. But what about Diggle, Felicity and the rest of Team Arrow? There's was no sign of any of the regulars Arrow fans have come to know and love over the course of five seasons. b. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/arrow/arrow-season-6-sdcc-17-trailer-finds-oliver-queen-in-a-brand-new-role-a152758 6. Arrow Showrunner Says Richard Dragon Will Be Grounded Crime Lord (Date: 25 July 2017) a. Richard Dragon, one of the last major Green Arrow villains yet to appear on Arrow, is coming in season six -- and he will be different from the series' other big bads, according to series executive producer Marc Guggenheim. "You know, what I really like about our interpretation of Richard is, he's very grounded," Guggenheim said. "He's not a flamboyant big bad, he doesn't wear a costume, he really is a crimelord sort of in the Tobias Church model. For Tobias we only really saw him for about five episodes, so we were excited about th prospect of doing a cool, gritty crime lord, but for a longer period of time. We've never really done that on the show before, so it's different." b. http://comicbook.com/2017/07/25/arrow-showrunner-says-richard-dragon-will-be-grounded-crime-lord/ GENERAL DC TV NEWS 1. Legends of Tomorrow: Sara's Season 3 Love Interest is a New Character (Date: 25 July 2017) a. Love is in the air for Waverider captain Sara Lance. When the character returns in Legends of Tomorrow Season 3, she will find herself embroiled in a new romance. On Twitter, executive producer Marc Guggenheim revealed that this romance will be with a new character. Guggenheim and fellow executive producer Phil Klemmer revealed that Sara will get a new love interest at Comic-Con International's Legends of Tomorrow panel. “It's definitely time for Sara to settle down, or at least have a relationship that's more than a roll in the hay. It's hard when you're travelling through time,” Klemmer announced. “It's definitely been a priority of ours to re-establish Sara's bisexuality in Season 3,” Guggenheim added. “It's a big, important thing for us this year.” b. http://www.cbr.com/legends-of-tomorrow-sara-love-interest-new-character/ 2. The Flash: Tom Felton not returning as series regular (Date 25 July 2017) a. At the close of season 3, Julian was still a member of Team Flash, but with Barry now trapped in the Speed Force, and the show jumping ahead at least six months, it appears that Julian has left the team. The character was missing from the new season 4 footage in the recently released trailer, which was shown at Comic-Con, an event the Harry Potter alum also didn't attend. As of yet, Felton has not booked a return to the show, but as with all actors in the Berlanti-verse, there's a chance we could see Felton again if it makes sense for the story and his scheduling permits it. b. http://ew.com/tv/2017/07/25/flash-tom-felton-not-returning-season-4/?utm_campaign=entertainmentweekly&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&xid=entertainment-weekly_socialflow_twitter 3. THE FLASH Season 4 Casts The Thinker; Danny Trejo And More Join As Key DC Comics Characters (Date 23 July 2017) a. Neil Sandilands (The 100) is set to take on the role of Clifford Devoe/The Thinker, a metahuman with a mega mind who embarks on a season-long battle with The Flash that pits the "fastest man alive" against the "fastest mind alive." Danny Trejo (Machete) is Breacher, a feared bounty hunter from Earth-19 and the imposing father of inter-dimensional bounty hunter Gypsy. His mission is to prevent any inter-dimensional traveller from threatening life on his planet — especially his daughter's. Kim Engelbrecht (Dominion) is The Mechanic, a highly intelligent engineer who designs devices for Devoe. As Devoe's right hand, she's the truest of true believers who'll stop at nothing to help him implement his plan to fix humanity. b. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/the_flash/the-flash-season-4-casts-the-thinker-danny-trejo-and-more-join-as-key-dc-comics-characters-a152752 4. The Flash Gets a New Suit in Season 4 Set Photo (Date 29 July 2017) a. Set photos captured by YVRShoots.com show Gustin on set during July 28th, wearing what appears to be a new Flash suit. This comes after Gustin shared a photo of part of the suit on Instagram, and spoke about his desire for a new costume during an interview with ComicBook.com at San Diego Comic-Con. Interestingly, the suit is appears to be almost identical to the suit worn by the 2024 version of Barry Allen, which was briefly seen in last season's 'The Once and Future Flash'. b. http://comicbook.com/2017/07/29/the-flash-season-4-new-suit-barry-allen-grant-gustin/ 5. SUPERGIRL Season 3 Trailer Released; Calista Flockhart Set To Recur & Four New Cast Additions Announced (Date 22 July 2017) a. The CW has confirmed that Calista Flockhart will return for Supergirl season three and it sounds like she'll be popping in a lot more frequently this time around as she's secured recurring status. She'll first appear in the season premiere on October 9. Additionally, Adrian Pasdar, Carl Lumbly, Yael Grobglas, and Emma Tremblay have all joined the cast. Pasdar will play Morgan Edge, a ruthless real estate developer who will find himself at odds with Lena Luthor. Lumbly will play J'onn's father M'yrnn J'onzz, a pacifist religious leader on Mars. Grobglas will play Psi, a psychic villain who uses people's minds against them. Tremblay will play Ruby, a smart kid who's fascination with Supergirl lands her in serious trouble. The official season three trailer gives us our first look at Odette Annable as Reign and Erica Durance as Alura Zor-El. b. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/supergirl/supergirl-season-3-trailer-released-calista-flockhart-set-to-recur-four-new-cast-additions-announced-a152739 6. LEGENDS OF TOMORROW Season 3 Trailer Released; Both Captain Cold & Damien Darhk Will Return (Date 22 July 2017) a. The CW announced today that both Wentworth Miller and Neal McDonough will reprise their roles as Captain Cold and Damien Darhk, respectively, on the upcoming third season of DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Miller will actually return in a recurring capacity, but he won't exactly be the Leonard Snart we came to know and love in seasons one and two. He'll instead be playing a brand new version of fan-favorite character, which should lead to some interesting interactions between him and Mick. During the panel, executive producer Phil Klemmer teased, “Mick Rory needs his pal, but unfortunately he's not going to get the version of his pal that he remembers.” Meanwhile, McDonough will be upped to a series regular and will also come with his own, more dangerous, changes. "We'll be meeting a new version of Damien Darhk, a little less silly, a little more formidable." Arthur Darvill will also be back as Rip Hunter, but in a recurring role, and it sounds like he'll be coming into conflict with his former teammates. “Last season, the Legends were the only game in town,” Klemmer said. “Now they're competing with the best and brightest. Rip Hunter has reconstituted what the Time Masters were, so the existential question for the Legends is where do we fit into this universe?” As for new additions, a new villain will arise in the form of Kuasa, Vixen's granddaughter. Tala Ashe will also join the Waverider crew as Zari Adrianna Tomaz, a Muslim-American woman from 2030. b. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/legends_of_tomorrow/legends-of-tomorrow-season-3-trailer-released-both-captain-cold-damien-darhk-will-return-a152743 7. Spoiler Room: Scoop on Supergirl, Once Upon a Time, Defenders, and more (Date 27 July 2017) a. Is there any chance Alura is actually still alive on Supergirl? — With Erica Durance joining the show in a recast of Alura, EW pressed new showrunners Jessica Queller and Robert Rovner for answers at Comic-Con. “Shrouded in mystery, those questions,” Queller said coyly. Rovner added: “We wanted to keep Alura's presence on the show because it really connects Kara to Krypton and her roots and what it meant to see her family and her planet destroyed. It's an emotional grounding that's always important.” However, there's a good chance Mon-El ended up in the Phantom Zone — you know, the same Kryptonian prison that Alura had a hand in sending criminals to, so what if she escaped the destruction of Krypton and ended up there herself? Another dodge from the EPs: “Where Mon-El is and how he comes back is the central mystery of our season,” Queller said. “But the theme of this season is what does it mean to be human? Kara is going to be especially grappling with that, and all of the characters are. The loss of her family and Krypton impacts that a lot. The mother-daughter relationship is something we still want to explore in whatever fashion.” b. http://ew.com/tv/2017/07/27/spoiler-room-supergirl-once-upon-time-defenders/ 8. THE FLASH Star Grant Gustin Says It's The Show's Goal To Adapt CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS (Date 25 July 2017) a. Speaking to ComicBook at San Diego Comic-Con this weekend, Grant Gustin confirmed that while it's still a long time from happening, it's been the goal to eventually adapt Crisis on Infinite Earths on the show . "We don't really talk about it on a yearly basis but it was mentioned early on and that's a goal. Obviously we'd have to go I think ten years to reach that, so there's a possibility for sure. It'll be fun to get there." The massive multiverse event saw the collapse of multiple parallel universes, along with the "death" of The Flash himself. The story has been hinted at since the pilot episode of the show, where the Reverse Flash views a newspaper headline from the future stating that The Flash has "vanished in a crisis". Showrunner Todd Helbing also spoke to CB about the upcoming season 4, which he promised will be "fun" again after the "doom and gloom" of season 3. "Last year, once we showed Iris die in the future, to keep up that doom and gloom, it becomes a burden, and not just on us writing-wise, on the show and it just sort of had this pall over the season that I think we didn't expect to be so heavy;” there is “a conscious effort of ours to really go back to everybody enjoyed being on this team and with each other, and make The Flash have fun again.” b. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/the_flash/the-flash-star-grant-gustin-says-its-the-shows-goal-to-adapt-crisis-on-infinite-earths-a152832 9. THE FLASH Is Reborn In The Official Comic-Con Trailer For The Upcoming Fourth Season (Date 22 July 2017) a. For the first time since the series' inception, a new character is taking on the voiceover and she doesn't sound quite like her usual hopeful self as the months without Barry have taken a serious toll on her. The new trailer also teases new villains, including a very interesting looking Samurai and a few returning faces. b. https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/the_flash/the-flash-is-reborn-in-the-official-comic-con-trailer-for-the-upcoming-fourth-season-a152748 10. The Flash's Grant Gustin Says Speed Force Will Change Barry (Date 25 July 2017) a. “We're not necessarily going to see Barry's experience in the Speed Force. We'll see kind of the effects that the Speed Force has had on Barry, and he's been in there six months real-time,” Gustin started. “I suspect the Speed Force is kind of nonlinear with time, so Barry has experienced his entire life from star to end infinity times over since he's been in there. It's almost like a fresh start for me as an actor.” b. http://comicbook.com/2017/07/25/the-flash-speed-force-grant-gustin/ 11. Legends of Tomorrow Announces Tracy Ifeachor as S3 Villain (Date 26 July 2017) a. DC's Legends of Tomorrow will get mighty personal for Vixen in Season 3. During the show's panel at Comic-Con International in San Diego, Kuasa — the sister of Mari McCabe's Vixen — was announced as a villain for the upcoming season. Now, we can put a face to the name. Quantico star Tracy Ifeachor will play the character. Since Kuasa is Mari's sister, that also makes her the granddaughter of Amaya, who is slated to be a main character in Legends Season 3. At SDCC, executive producer Marc Guggenheim confirmed that the two will cross paths at some point this season, saying, “We're looking forward to the inevitable confrontation between Maisie [Richardson-Sellers]'s character and her granddaughter.” b. http://www.cbr.com/legends-of-tomorrow-kuasa-tracy-ifeachor/ 12. The Flash Season 4 Set Photos Show New Female Villain (Date 29 July 2017) a. YVRShoots.com recently shared pictures of The Flash's newest foe, who will reportedly appear the third episode of the season, entitled 'Luck Me a Lady.' In one set of photos, an actress is robbing a bank in a red dress, while other photos show the same actress running after a bus in a rather noteworthy casino outfit. Fans were quick to recognize the casino dealer outfit as that belonging to the DC Comics villain Becky Sharpe, a.k.a. Hazard. Hazard has appeared throughout the DC Comics mythos as a member of the Injustice Society, and was the granddaughter of the original Gambler. The antagonist is bestowed with psionic powers, which allow her to cause good or bad "accidents" to her foes. b. http://comicbook.com/2017/07/29/the-flash-set-photos-show-new-female-villain/ ARROW CAST AND CREW INTERVIEWS 1.

During a Comic Con Interview with Arrow's leading lady Emily Bett Rickards, we were joined by series regular Echo Kellum, who brought out Rickards's playful side. Rather than trying to finish our interview with Rickards and pull one or both of them back on track, we went with the more entertaining option of egging them on, asking among other things: "Can you tell me more about 'sexy threats?'" b. http://comicbook.com/2017/07/28/arrows-emily-bett-rickards-and-echo-kellum-explain-sexy-threats/ NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: (Date: 08 March 2017) https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/legends_of_tomorrow/legends-of-tomorrow-new-extended-promo-for-season-2-episode-14-moonshot-a149472 Episode: “Moonshot” [Season 2 Episode 14] Air Date: Tuesday, March 14, 2017 Summary: The Legends learn where the last fragment of the Spear of Destiny is hidden when they track Commander Steel to NASA Headquarters in 1970.

We know at least one member of the Emerald Archer's team made it out relatively unscathed, since Dinah Drake (Juliana Harkavy) will officially suit up as Black Canary in season 6 — and EW has the exclusive first look. EW turned to executive producer Wendy Mericle to get the scoop. Mericle said about Dinah suiting up, “We have an intervening five months between the finale and where we pick up in the premiere and I think we will take the opportunity to tell the full story of it. But I think yes, the island and everything that happened in the finale has driven her to this point. But at the same time, it's really the team and this sense of her being a part of something. She was adrift before, but now she's part of a family and part of this bigger force in the world.” http://ew.com/tv/2017/07/13/arrow-season-6-spoilers-black-canary/ Anna Hopkins (Samantha Clayton) was awesome in Dark Matter “Ambrosia” Ask Ausiello: Spoilers on Arrow, Goldbergs, Superstore, Roseanne, Originals — Plus, Blind Item Hint! (Date: 12 July 2017) What can we expect for Black Siren? — Ausiello: You can expect much of the aforementioned villainy, sprinkled with the occasional wish for a turn-around, at least by those who knew her Earth-One doppelgänger. “I don't know if there's any question about whether or not the [idea] of redemption will come up; it has to,” co-showrunner Wendy Mericle told TVLine. “Her father is there. Oliver is there. Everyone is going to be asking whether or not it's possible to find a little piece of Laurel, the Laurel Lance they knew and loved, in there somewhere.” That said, “I think she's interesting as a [villain],” Mericle asserted. “Black Siren is a badass.” BONUS SCOOP: Even with Adrian Chase dead, Oliver's battle to conceal his secret identity is far from over. Rumor has it he will be dogged by a curious FBI agent this season. http://tvline.com/2017/07/12/roseanne-revival-glenn-quinn-death-mark-abc/ Manu Bennett's Slade Wilson Will Stick Around This Time (Date: 9 July 2017) Speaking at Heroes & Villains FanFest in Nashville this weekend (via TVLine), Amell teased that Bennett is “back to being a part of the show” and that he might pop up “multiple times this year.” Amell didn't offer much more information than that, so it's possible that Wilson really is dead and Bennett will appear in some kind of convoluted flashback sequences, but it sounds like we're getting more Deathstroke either way. http://www.avclub.com/article/manu-bennetts-slade-wilson-will-stick-around-arrow-257854 Do you need a moment Chris?

They had a season finale similar where you had a group of characters, all of whom were series regulars, in a dire situation at the end of their season. Just because they were series regulars did not mean that everyone came out of that cliffhanger alive.” http://ew.com/tv/2017/06/23/spoiler-room-pretty-little-liars-arrow-chicago-fire/ Arrow: Black Canary Memorial Revealed in Season 6 Concept Art (Date: 23 June 2017) The Black Canary memorial seen in the piece above mirrors a similar scene from the opening of Season 5. Around this time last year, Guggenheim unveiled artwork of a bronze statue of Laurel in costume. This appeared in the first half of Season 5, until Black Siren destroyed it with her sonic scream.

GENERAL DC TV NEWS Spoiler Room: Scoop on Pretty Little Liars, Arrow, Chicago Fire, and more (Date: 23 June 2017) What do you have on Legends of Tomorrow season 3? — The Legends of Tomorrow will find themselves facing off against Rip Hunter (and his new Time Bureau) once again next season, but it will be very different from what we saw last year. “In season 2, he was turned evil,” EP Marc Guggenheim says. “This is not Evil Rip. We're not making Rip a bad guy or that kind of villain, rather this is Rip as… the Ronny Cox in Beverly Hills Cop to our Eddie Murphy. He's the guy who's trying to do things the proper way, follow the rules, get things done with a certain level of efficiency, and here come our Legends of Tomorrow, who go about things a bit more unorthodox.” http://ew.com/tv/2017/06/23/spoiler-room-pretty-little-liars-arrow-chicago-fire/ Supergirl Adds Two New Showrunners; Ali Adler Departs (Date 16 June 2017) Supergirl just underwent a behind-the-scenes change-up. Deadline reports that co-creator Ali Adler has stepped down from her role as showrunner, per her overall deal at CBS TV studios. In her place, both Jessica Queller and Robert Rovner will be promoted to executive producer. Queller and Rovner have been part of Supergirl since the show's first season. Queller joined mid-way through Season 1 as co-executive producer; Rovner, on the other hand, boarded as consulting producer and was later promoted to executive producer for Season 2. Both will act as showrunners for Season 3. They join fellow executive producers Andrew Kreisberg, Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter.

Earlier in the episode, as Oliver, Slade, and Talia were exploring Lian Yu, the camera panned across the forest floor to reveal a set of skeletal remains wearing a black leather jacket. The body was that of Konstantin Kovar, who wouldn't die at Oliver's hand for about another 20 minutes in the episode.

In it, Law talks to Nick E. Tarabay (Digger Harkness/Captain Boomerang) about her love of donuts, seemingly unaware that John Barrowman (Malcolm Merlyn) is behind her. Barrowman taps Law on the shoulder, sneaks up behind her, and licks her donut. And in traditional Arrow fashion, the video is accompanied by dramatic music and camera movements.

I love playing Malcolm Merlyn, and you know - that's it really. As sad as it may be, I understand how shows must change and also characters must change and develop. But that doesn't mean I'm not very sad and upset about it. I appreciate your support and love you all,” the actor told fans.

Like the very successful four-night crossover last December, which delivered the CW's most watched week in six years, the stunt will include the DC series on the fall schedule, Supergirl, The Flash, Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow.

The set contains all 22 episodes of Supergirl's second season, an exclusive commentary with Andrew Kreisberg and Kevin Smith, the show's 2016 Comic-Con panel, featurettes, and more extras. Link:http://comicbook.com/2017/05/24/supergirl-season-2-blu-ray/ Supergirl: Cat Grant Won't Be Series Regular in Season 3 (Date: 25 May 2017) While Flockhart was listed as a series regular by The CW in press release for Season Three, the actress won't be a full-time cast member. Instead, she's expected to appear as a guest star in a handful of episodes, “if the scheduling can be worked out.” Given the revelation that Cat has known Kara's biggest secret for some time, fans will undoubtedly hope schedules do work out, as Kara could surely use some sage advice from her mentor as she faces more challenges.

Welcome to the DC TV Report for the week ending Saturday May 27th, 2017. As submitted by Edward O'Hare, nickname To Be Determined. There were 6 new episodes this week, including 3 finales and one penultimate episode. Gotham - Penguin and Riddler worked together to escape the Court of Owls prison and agreed not to kill each other for 6 hours. The Shaman finally trained Bruce to hide his mom's pearls in a safe and become the perfect weapon. Selena attacked Evil Bruce, revealing the truth to Alfred. Evil Bruce whipped them both and ran. Selina refused to help Alfred find real Bruce. After a dangerous run-in with an ax-handed, bomb-dropping Barnes, Jim and Harvey finally brought in Kathryn, let Alfred beat her up, and watched her get decapitated by Barnes, after he turned the precinct into Fury Road. Barnes was finally taken down until he escaped. Lucius pieced together a crystal owl and discovered it was a map of the Court's plan. Last Minute Reveal: In the middle of all this everyone failed to notice Lee being consumed with sorrow for Mario's death and hatred for Jim (probably because all the boys kept her out of the loop). Before they could realize it, Lee stole the Tetch virus and injected herself with it! Lucifer Penultimate Episode - Charlotte gave money to a guy claiming to have the missing piece of the Flaming Sword of Eden. The guy took the money into a backroom and was murdered. Lucifer maneuvered Chloe to take the case. It was pretty obvious that the killer was Chet, the wannabe rockstar son of a Drug Queen. Lucifer and Charlotte were able to recover what they paid for: the key to a safe-deposit box that contained a Sumerian text. Chet tried killing Charlotte, but a cut caused light to shoot out of Charlotte and roast Chet's face off. Maz tried to get Luci to help stop Dr. Linda from getting suspended for last episode's antics. Luci only made it worse when he slipped that he slept with Linda. Last Minute Reveal: After reading the text Amenadiel and Lucifer learned the third piece of the sword was a key given to God's favorite son. Amenadiel jealously thought it referred to Lucifer until his necklace began to be drawn to the sword! Supergirl Season 2 Finale - Kara had to knock out Superman to snap him out of a silver Kryptonite trance. J'onn woke up from his coma. Kara challenged Rhea to a one-on-one fight for all the marbles. James defended Cat Grant, who immediately recognized him as the Guardian. Clark and J'onn defended the city with help from M'Gann who swung over from Mars. Kara was forced to activate a weapon that Lena converted to make Earth's atmosphere toxic to all Daxamites. The fallout disintegrated Rhea and the Daxamites bounced but Mon-El was also forced to leave Earth. During the celebration, Alex proposed to Maggie. Kara felt down, got some encouragement from Cat, and we saw her fly straight into the air at full speed as Mon-El's ship entered a wormhole. Last Minute Reveal: 35 years ago, on the day Krypton died, another baby was placed in a small spacecraft by a woman who touched the child with a drop of blood and declared that when the baby reached Earth, it would reign! The Flash Season 3 Finale - Iris was alive! HR used his transmogrifier to take her place. Savitar kidnapped Cisco, forcing him to modify the bazooka into a quantum splicer that would help Savitar avoid being erased from time. Barry tried offering Savitar an olive branch, but it didn't work out. Instead of saving Savitar, Cisco's splicer freed Jay Garrick from the speed force. In the final showdown, Barry vibrated Savitar out of his suit, leaving him to be swallowed by the Paradox. Julian offered Caitlin a cure but she decided instead to walk the Earth. Just when it seemed like Iris and Barry could start planning their wedding, the Speed Force reigned a storm that threatened to destroy Central City unless Barry served penance for his transgressions from this season. Last Minute Reveal: Barry said his goodbyes to the team, kissed Iris, and joined the vision of his Mom in the breach. After he disappeared the storm faded away! iZombie - Harley Johns posted his zombie attack video and received mixed reactions. A Fillmore Graves helicopter exploded and Vivian Stoll was killed. Liv pan-fried the brain of a daredevil who burned to death after riding a bike through a ring of fire wearing a hay costume. Turns out one of his producers sabotaged the suit's flame retardant after the prankster knocked up his girlfriend. Liv shared the brain with Justin and they had their first kiss, but Justin got in trouble for stealing Super Max from work. Angus came up with a brilliant business strategy to take advantage of the Zombie outbreak. Blaine ruined that by leaving Angus to rot at the bottom of a well with cement shoes, and taking over his businesses. Last Minute Reveal: Liv put on some spray tan and hair dye and tried sneaking into a zombie haters meeting with Ravi, but she had to leave when she saw Harley Johns taking people's blood pressure at the door! Arrow Season 5 Finale – 5 years ago, Oliver fought and killed Kovar, was rescued by fisherman, and called his mom. In the present, Oliver enlisted help from Merlyn, Nyssa al-Ghul, and Deathstroke to infiltrate Lian Yu. Felicity, Curtis, Thea, and Samantha were freed. Malcolm sacrificed himself to save Thea from a land mine. Oliver and Deathstroke rescued Diggle, Quentin, Rene, and Dinah. Final matchups included Nyssa vs. Talia and Quentin vs. Black Siren. Felicity and Curtis discovered that the getaway plane had been disabled and the whole island was rigged with C-4 set to blow once Adrian Chase died. Ollie tracked Chase to a fishing boat and once off the coast, Chase revealed William, making Oliver choose between saving his son or all his friends. Ollie shot Chase in the leg and saved William. Last Minute Reveal: Just when it looked as though Chase had finally been defeated, the bastard pulled out a revolver and shot himself, causing the whole island to explode. Is all of Team Arrow dead?!
Welcome to the DC TV Report for the week ending Saturday May 20th, 2017. IAs submitted by Edward O'Hare, nickname To Be Determined. Six new episodes, three of them were penultimate. So many bombshells. So much excitement: Gotham: The Court of Owls broke Captain Barnes out of Arkham Asylum and Dr. Hugo Strange used his blood to make Tetch virus airborne. Kathryn tested Jim by having him watch the gas be released on a small group of innocents. With some help from Oswald and Firefly, Jim took down a Talon and saved the day. The Court later captured Oswald and caged him in a cell next to Ed. Lee continued pursuing her vendetta against Jim, and ended up resigning from GCPD. The Shaman taught Bruce to channel his pain and let go of his rage. Ivy found Selina in a coma and turned her hospital room into a greenhouse. The plants woke Selina up, and she was off to Wayne Manor. Last Minute Reveal: Kathryn wanted Jim killed and Barnes broke through his bonds ready to perform an execution! Lucifer: Chloe and Lucifer investigated the murder of an orderly at a psych ward. One of the patients claimed to be God and Lucifer learned he might not have been lying. Chloe took a Doctor on a weird double date with Maze and Amenadiel and embarrassed herself asking for help with the case. Lucifer checked himself into the psych ward, broke out Dad, and tried pulling a parent trap with him and Charlotte. Chloe broke up the fun. Turns out the killer was a nurse. After losing his belt buckle, God remembered he wasn't God. Luci and Amenadiel figured out the buckle was a missing piece of the Flaming Sword of Eden that offered divine enlightenment. Charlotte drowned her sorrows in Dave. Last Minute Reveal: Lucifer showed the guy who wasn't his Dad to a taxi and became determined to return to heaven and punish his real father! Supergirl: Penultimate Episode - Rhea planned to enslave the Earth, proclaim it New Daxam, and force Mon-El and Lena to get hitched. After an Air Force One attack, President Marsden revealed herself to be an alien refugee and ordered Alex to break into the DEO and destroy Rhea's ship with a positron cannon. Cat Grant returned, reminded us why she is the most dynamic character on the show, inspired Kara to go after Rhea, and with help from Winn, inspired all of National City to fight back against the Daxamites. Lillian Luthor and Cyborg Superman helped Kara rescue Lena and Mon-El but pulled a double-cross. When Alex learned Kara was still aboard Rhea's ship, she hesitated and the positron cannon was destroyed. Last Minute Reveal: Rhea stepped aside and let Kara get punched out… by Superman! The Flash: Penultimate Episode - Barry traveled into the past and brought back Captain Cold to help him break into ARGUS, neutralize King Shark, and take the Dominators' Crystal. The mission was a success (sort of), and Captain Cold returned to the past, advising Barry not to play by Savitar's rules. Tracey continued her romance with HR. Joe and Wally tried hiding with Iris on Earth 2, but Savitar tricked HR into revealing their location. Savitar crippled Wally and snatched Iris. Cisco got vibes of Killer Frost and finally met her in the forest for a final showdown. Barry confronted Savitar on Infantino Street and tried using the Speed Force bazooka but it did not work, and Savitar drew his blade to kill Iris. Last Minute Reveal: As Barry ran, we saw a video message from Iris to Barry reciting her wedding vows. Barry failed to save Iris and held her body in his arms! iZOMBIE: Liv went “Red” and nearly choked out Blaine but believed he didn't steal the cure. Liv rolled up preschool teacher brains with PB&J and became extremely friendly and encouraging. Turns out the teacher was banging three of his students' moms and was killed by one of their hubbies. Blaine was feeling down until Don stole his brain business and left him, shot in the gut. One of Peyton's cases was blown up by attorney Harry Thorne and the next day the defendant hung himself. Peyton asked Ravi to blue-soak the brain for answers. Major and Justin discovered the Scratching Post. Justin went on a sort-of-date with Liv. Major and Justin tracked down Harley Johns and confronted him on a dark road at night. Last Minute Reveal: Harley ran over Justin, who went “Red”, chased down Harley and jumped on the hood of his car, before getting thrown. Harley took a video of Justin's attack and now has proof Zombies exist! ARROW: Penultimate Episode – 5 years ago, Kovar injected Oliver with a serum that caused him to feel extreme pain and hallucinate his past failures. A vision of Laurel convinced him not to kill himself. In the present, the team threw Ollie a surprise birthday party. Then one-by-one Adrian Chase had each teammate kidnapped by Talia al-Ghul's army, including Evelyn and Black Siren. Turns out Wild Dog didn't abandon his daughter after all. Quentin met Black Siren and it took time for him to realize she wasn't Laurel. Malcolm Merlyn showed up to help. Oliver learned that his son, William, had also been snatched, tried stopping Chase, but ultimately had to let him escape. Nyssa al-Ghul joined Oliver's cause. Oliver tracked Chase to his old island and set out to rescue his friends. Last Minute Reveal: Oliver entered the ARGUS submarine prison and asked Deathstroke for help!

After recent events, Oliver decides to recruit a group of unlikely allies – Slade (guest star Manu Bennett), Nyssa (guest star Katrina Law), Merlyn (John Barrowman) and Digger Harkness (guest star Nick. E. Tarabay) – to defeat Chase. However, Chase has his own army – Black Siren (guest star Katie Cassidy), Evelyn Sharp (guest star Madison McLaughlin) and Talia al Ghul (guest star Lexa Doig) – and the forces collide in an explosive season finale. “Supergirl” Season 2 finale: Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) challenges Rhea (guest star Teri Hatcher) to battle to save National City. Meanwhile, Superman (guest star Tyler Hoechlin) returns and Cat Grant (guest star Calista Flockhart) offers Supergirl some sage advice. “The Flash” Season 3 finale: With nothing left to lose, Barry (Grant Gustin) takes on Savitar (also Grant Gustin) in an epic conclusion to season three. Link:http://www.cbr.com/the-cw-reveals-season-finale-synopses-for-flash-arrow-supergirl/ Arrow EP Explains Why Prometheus Keeps Getting So Personal (Date: 10 May 2017) During an interview last week, Arrow showrunner Wendy Mericle explained why they felt it was time for a villain who challenged Oliver on a personal, human level for the first time since Deathstroke in season 2. “It's very personal this year, and we wanted to do that for a number of reasons,” Mericle said. “WE've done a different villain this year. It's not that it's easy, but using violence — which Chase and Oliver still do throughout the season — is sort of the go-to. What's been interesting to see this year is to see that but the underpinnings of it being so psychological and so manipulative and so built on the underpinnings of what Chase knows about Oliver and who he is. This was the perfect storm — a great way to change up the villain and to get inside of Oliver's head in a season that we needed to. We needed him to be reflective and talking and looking back at his past, and Chase was the perfect spark to light that fire.” Link:http://comicbook.com/2017/05/11/arrow-prometheus-robert-queen/ Arrow Season 6 To Explore the Conflicts Between Being Mayor and Being Green Arrow (Date: 10 May 2017) During a recent interview, showrunner Wendy Mericle told ComicBook.com that the man in the hood will still be spending his days at City Hall come 2016. Mericle said, “What's going to be a central question for season 6 is how can he do both? We've played with that in the past in different ways before, but I think that the success of what he's done in the mayor's office and his ability to have impact is going to raise those stakes to a different level and hopefully create some great stories.” Link:http://comicbook.com/2017/05/11/arrow-season-6-oliver-mayor/ Matt's Inside Line: Scoop on Arrow, Once, Chicago Fire, Elementary, Blindspot, The Flash, NCIS and More! (Date: 09 May 2017) Black Siren is a badass villain. What can we expect? —You can expect… badass villainy. “She comes back as part of Chase's plan,” says co-showrunner Wendy Mericle. ” Chase knows exactly what he's doing, and he understands how unsettling seeing somebody that looks like Laurel Lance is going to be for the rest of the team,” her “dad” Quentin included. “And from a writing perspective, it's just fun storytelling. Katie Cassidy does an amazing job as Black Siren, and seeing her take on Dinah, or her take on Lance, is going to be fun.” This will be the first Arrow season finale that does not take place in Starling City. Can we expect the same kind of intense fights, or will this be more of an emotional showdown? —“Both,” answers Wendy Mericle. “One of the fun parts of having Prometheus and Oliver going toe-to-toe this season has been they're both really great fighters, but by the same token, Prometheus is a tremendous psychological villain and he's going to hit Oliver right where it hurts. That's going to be a double whammy for him in the finale.” Link:http://tvline.com/2017/05/09/arrow-season-5-spoilers-black-siren-returns/ GENERAL DC TV NEWS Supergirl EP Teases General Zod's Arrival, Comic-Inspired Appearance (Date: 06 May 2017) The “how” and “when” of General Zod's arrival on Supergirl remains a mystery, but thanks to executive producer Andrew Kreisberg, at least we know what the legendary DC Comics villain will be wearing. He says that Supergirl‘s Zod (played by Smallville actor Mark Gibbon) will be sporting “a little bit of that Nazi uniform look you'd see in the comics in the '60s. Visually, he has a different look from the mechanical armor that Man of Steel did, or the real spacey clothes Richard Donner's version had. Link:http://tvline.com/2017/05/06/supergirl-general-zod-spoilers-new-season-2-interview/ The Flash boss on how everyone will react to that Savitar reveal (Date: 08 May 2017) As revealed during last week's episode of The Flash, Savitar is actually a future version of the Scarlet Speedster, a heavily scarred Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) hellbent on killing Iris (Candice Patton) for as-yet-unknown reasons. Suffice it to say, Team Flash will certainly be shocked by this turn of events during Tuesday's episode. “What's interesting about people's reactions — we certainly wrote it, but just the way the cast performs it — is it's one thing to have seen that giant metal suit and hear that there is a version of Barry inside of it,” executive producer Andrew Kreisberg tells EW. “It's quite another thing when you actually come face-to-face with what's inside.” Plus, watch a trailer for the final episodes of season 3.

(Date: 09 May 2017) Will we ever see Supergirl‘s Mon-El in a super suit? — T'would be nice to see the boy do his thing not in street clothes, and ideally by the Season 2 finale. When we delivered your Q to showrunner Andrew Kreisberg, he answered, “I can't say right now, but I wouldn't be surprised if one day you got to see that.” Link:http://tvline.com/2017/05/09/arrow-season-5-spoilers-black-siren-returns/ NEXT EPISODE Promo for Next Week's: Episode - “Missing” (Date: 11 May 2017) Article:http://www.cbr.com/arrow-missing-trailer/ Episode: “Missing” [Season 5 Episode 22] Air Date: Wednesday, May 17, 2017 Summary: Black Siren returns to give Chase help; Felicity plans a birthday party for Oliver; Lance is angry with Rene for missing the custody hearing about his daughter.

(Date: 24 April 2017) PRE-FINALE: While Team Arrow, A.R.G.U.S. and the SCPD launch a manhunt for Adrian Chase, Helix offers Felicity a solution to that problem — in trade for something big and illegal. On the heels of that, things get intense when Oliver and Felicity are trapped in the bunker together, while Lyla and Diggle deal with marital issues. Oliver also will deal with the forced release of violent criminals prosecuted by Chase as well as the delivery of a mysterious corpse encased in concrete. SEASON FINALE (MAY 24): Chase keeps 10 steps ahead of Team Arrow, forcing Oliver to face his violent past and answer the question once and for all: Is he a killer, or a hero? To answer that, Oliver will be forced to let go of the fate his father burdened him with and aim for a new legacy. And as Oliver's five years' worth of flashbacks come to an end, you will see how he planned his escape from Lian Yu — while in the present, Oliver bids said island a final farewell.

"Chase has been trying to prove to the world and to Oliver that he's not a hero, he's a killer, and he's going to pull out one final, big whamo at the end that's going to leave Oliver reeling," EP Wendy Mericle says of the action-packed hour, which she promises will be very explosive. "We might lose some people." Link:http://ew.com/tv/season-finales-2017-spoilers/arrow/ Spoiler Room: Scoop on Scandal, Arrow, S.H.I.E.L.D., and more (Date: xx month year) Anything Arrow? — The finale is going to bring the show full circle to what we saw in the pilot — and more! Here's what EP Wendy Mericle tells me: “We've managed to hopefully stick the landing on it in a cool way that allows us to see both some of the moments right before we first met Oliver in the pilot, where he launched that flaming arrow and it lit up that signal fire, and also maybe a little bit after as well, some of the more emotional moments that we never got to see in the pilot.” Link:http://ew.com/tv/2017/04/21/spoiler-room-scandal-arrow-agents-shield/ Is Arrow Planning A The Walking Dead-Style Season Finale Cliffhanger? It Sounds Like It (Date: 24 April 2017) During an interview with ComicBook.com earlier today, Arrow executive producer Wendy Mericle referred to the upcoming season finale as a cliffhanger, and indicated that fans might not know who lives and who dies until season six. "We're going to have a big bang of an ending, and we're not going to know really the outcome until the end of season 6," Mericle told ComicBook.com. "We don't often do cliffhangers in the way that we're doing this season, and we're excited about this ending." Mericle said of the flashbacks that have served as a kind of backup story in the show's first five seasons, “Moving forward into season 6, we're not calling it a reboot, because really the show is called Arrow and it's still about Oliver and his team, and that's not changing, but we don't have the flashbacks. What that's going to allow us to do is keep that device when we want it, but we don't have to keep pushing the five year storyline down the road. It gives us a lot more real estate to play around with, a lot more space to hopefully bring in some cool villains and to tell new character stories, and we have a lot of new characters on the show whose backstories we haven't really had the chance to experience."

Upon returning to the present, Barry & Co. meet a scientist (House‘s Anne Dudek) who may be the key to stopping Savitar, but they must — literally, and with great difficulty — fight to keep Killer Frost from getting to her first. Afterward, Caitlin's icy alter ego makes an interesting proposal. SEASON FINALE (MAY 23): After discovering Savitar's true identity, Team Flash prepares for a final, epic battle with the God of Speed… while struggling with a major setback. Expect a season-ending cliffhanger that will leave viewers — and the heroes — questioning how they will move forward in Season 4. Link:https://tvline.com/gallery/may-sweeps-spoilers-2017-finale-episodes-photos/#!11/undefined/ May Sweeps Preview and Finale Spoilers (Date: 24 April 2017) PRE-FINALE: The final episodes of Season 2 will test Kara's friendship with Lena, first by introducing Ms. Luthor's ex-beau — the dangerous and shady Jack Spheer (iZombie‘s Rahul Kohli) — and then by setting up a potential alliance between Lena and Queen Rhea, whose mysterious plan quickly escalates. Meanwhile, Kara and Maggie will grow closer as they team up to rescue Alex from a life-threatening situation, and James will find a new purpose as Guardian becomes National City's only hope against a string of deadly attacks. SEASON FINALE (MAY 22): In addition to meeting the infamous General Zod, viewers should keep an eye out for some returning favorites as the season comes to a climax. “With the return of Superman and Cat Grant (Calista Flockhart first resurfaces on May 15), we are poised for our biggest most exciting episode of the season,” executive producer Andrew Kreisberg says. “Big fights, big guest stars, big emotion — it's going to be amazing.” Link:https://tvline.com/gallery/may-sweeps-spoilers-2017-finale-episodes-photos/#!23/distant-sun-4/ Supergirl Casts Man of Steel and Smallville Alum Mark Gibbon as General Zod (Date: 21 April 2017) Mark Gibbon, a Canadian character actor who played one of the oil rig workers rescued by Superman in Man of Steel, will next take on the role of General Zod in Supergirl. Gibbon will be a recognizable face to fans of geek entertainment, with roles on TV and in film including Smallville, Arrow, and The X-Files. He also has a voice-acting resume that includes playing the Incredible Hulk, The Thing, and Nick Fury in various Marvel animated projects.

With a nod to that mess, “Barry looks pretty similar — he is in shambles,” Gustin said. “He does not look good.” Devastated by losing the love of his life, this Barry is “totally alone” until his past self arrives, setting the stage for double the Gustin. “It's a lot of scenes with Barry and Barry, and they're pretty emotional scenes from both sides,” says the actor. All told, “They were some of the more challenging scenes I've done — if not just this year, in the whole series, because I'm my own scene partner.” Link:http://tvline.com/2017/04/20/the-flash-season-3-episode-19-preview-future-barry/ The Flash's Danielle Panabaker Breaks Down Killer Frost's Chilling New Look (Date: 26 April 2017) In her previous, Earth-Two incarnation, Killer Frost was clad in leather pants and a jacket, “so this is pretty different with the skirts and stuff,” Danielle Panabaker shared during our visit to the CW hit's set, where the warm actress was almost (almost) jarring to lay eyes on, wearing her full costume (including a tiny extra flourish not spied in either of these exclusive photos).

Behold, even set video of him being a jerk and heat visioning some people! Also spotted on set was Tyler Hoechlin, returning to action as the Man of Steel.

With Adrian Chase (Josh Segarra) still on the loose, mysterious hacker organization Helix offers Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) a way to track him down in exchange for her services involving something illegal. Needless to say, Oliver (Stephen Amell) & Co. won't be happy. But Ollie and Felicity will be forced to face their divide head on next week when the duo gets trapped in the bunker together. Will this actually bring them closer together? EW turned to executive producer Wendy Mericle to get the scoop. Link:http://ew.com/tv/2017/04/25/arrow-season-5-finale-spoilers/ Michelle ARROW EP TEASES DEATHSTROKE'S RETURN, AL GHUL SIBLING RIVALRY & MORE (Date: 26 April 2017) As “Arrow” hurtles towards its Season 5 finale, Oliver Queen and his team are in more trouble than ever. They may have dealt Prometheus a major blow, but he's still at large. Meanwhile, Felicity is knee-deep with the mysterious hacker group Helix, which has some dubious intentions. Even as Team Arrow deals with these threats on two fronts, the return of Katie Cassidy's Black Siren looms in the distance, threatening to kick off with an emotional gut punch. Nevertheless, executive producer Wendy Mericle is looking forward to “Arrow's” future with a lot of hope. Speaking with CBR, Mericle addressed all of the threats facing Team Arrow. She also explained how Season 1 characters like Deathstroke and Yao Fei will return, delved into Felicity's relationship with Oliver, teased Malcolm Merlyn and Artemis' important roles in the Season 5 finale, discussed how the show will fill the gap left by the flashbacks in Season 6 and more.

Bertinelli mention - 4 times Kord mentioned a lot lately ARROW NEWS: Spoiler Room: Scoop on Supergirl, Grey's Anatomy, Blindspot, and more (Date: 24 March 2017) Arrow finale scoop! — As the season heads toward the ultimate showdown between Oliver and Chase, we're going to be seeing a very different season finale this year. “We're not going to destroy the city,” EP Marc Guggenheim teases. “We're not even going to threaten the city. In fact, I can also tell you the finale doesn't even take place in the city. Finally, the citizens of Star City can breathe easily in May.” Wherever the finale takes place, Guggenheim adds, “You can expect a good number of returning characters, characters you haven't seen in a while, back in the episode.” Link:http://ew.com/tv/2017/03/24/spoiler-room-supergirl-greys-anatomy-blindspot/ ARROW: CAPTAIN BOOMERANG ACTOR TEASES RETURN (Date: 25 March 2017) The classic DC Comics rogue, better known as Captain Boomerang, was introduced on the third season of “Arrow,” in the two-part crossover with “The Flash,” but hasn't been shown since. However, actor Nick Tarabay suggests that could change soon. “Who really misses this guy?” the actor wrote in a tweet containing a photo of Boomerang. “Cause as you know….What goes around ALWAYS comes back around.” When Boomerang was last seen, he was incarcerated in the secret A.R.G.U.S. supermax prison on Lian Yu. How or when Boomerang might escape will have to remain mystery as of now. Link:http://www.cbr.com/arrow-captain-boomerang-return/ Marc Guggenheim says ‘Arrow's' Vigilante is someone we already know (Date: 26 March 2017) Vigilante has made a bad habit of getting in Oliver's (Stephen Amell) way — and the Green Arrow's way for that matter — all year, but no matter how often he shows up, we're no closer to unmasking him. According to executive producer Marc Guggenheim, that's a mystery for Season 6. We know who it is, but we were kind of intrigued by the idea of having a mystery that led into the next season,” Guggenheim told us at Paleyfest 2017. “We were excited at the prospect of just letting this play out for a little while longer, and it gives us something cool to do in Season 6. “As a general rule, I'm not a fan of mystery characters who when you take off the mask the audience goes, ‘What a minute, I've never seen that person before in my life,'” Guggenheim jokes. “I'm probably not spoiling anything by saying whoever's underneath the Vigilante mask, you've seen that person before.” Link:http://screenertv.com/television/arrow-marc-guggenheim-vigilantes-identity-someone-we-know/ ARROW: KATIE CASSIDY WILL RETURN AS SERIES REGULAR FOR SEASON 6 (Date: 27 March 2017) Laurel Lance is back! Sort of. Though her character died in Season 4, longtime “Arrow” star Katie Cassidy will return, but with a twist: she will play Black Siren, Earth-2's evil version of Laurel, as a series regular in Season 6. Additionally, Black Siren will feature in the last two episodes of Season 5. “One of the things that most excites us about ‘Arrow' is that we go where the story takes us. Last year, the story took us to the tragic death of Laurel Lance. This year, our midseason finale reintroduced us to Laurel's doppelgänger, Black Siren,” explained executive producer Marc Guggenheim in a statement. “We were so taken by Katie's fearless interpretation of this character that we knew her story was not yet finished. We couldn't be more thrilled to welcome Katie back to ‘Arrow' as Black Siren, though as her appearances on ‘Arrow' and ‘DC's Legends of Tomorrow' this season show, she never really left the family.” Link:http://www.cbr.com/arrow-katie-cassidy-series-regular-season-6-black-siren/ Arrow: What's really going on with Helix? (Date: 28 March 2017) “We are going to see somebody [else],” Mericle teases. “What's interesting about it is he's not actually at Helix right now, so there's going to be a big episode where we find out who this person is, and Felicity is involved in helping him. It's really messed up.” But Felicity's dealings with Helix will also help her to better understand what Team Arrow — Oliver (Stephen Amell) in particular — have been facing over the last five seasons. “Felicity's use of Pandora is very similar to Oliver and Diggle's [David Ramsey] use of violence,” EP Marc Guggenheim says. “It's the hacker equivalent. You're using violence for a good means, but violence is not necessarily a good thing. So what's the cost to Felicity in doing that? We don't want to turn Felicity into a killer, but we wanted to explore how Felicity has been spending basically five years with Team Arrow now, and she's been spending five years with people who solve problems by not just resorting to violence, but by resorting to means that are morally questionable. Felicity is going to start discovering what happens when you fight fire with fire — do you get burned?” Link:http://ew.com/tv/2017/03/28/arrow-felicity-helix-spoilers/ Legends of Tomorrow boss, cast on that shocking Felicity twist (Date: 28 March 2017) Marc Guggenheim told EW, “It's always nice when you can pull in a character from one of the other shows. We talked about a lot of different ideas, and I said, ‘Since this is an alternate reality and we'll probably never have the opportunity to do so again, I think it would be fun if we did Felicity as a superhero,' because I've said it before, I'll say it again: I have zero intention of ever putting Felicity in a mask and costume on Arrow. There's two lines in the sand that I've drawn for Arrow for myself,” Guggenheim says. “I can't speak for Greg [Berlanti] or for Wendy [Mericle], but for as long as I'm involved with the show, the two things I never want to do is kill off Thea [Willa Holland] and put Felicity in a mask and a costume. Those, to me, are two lines that I just think are a bridge too far. Thea, because we've taken so many family members away from Oliver, and Felicity because when you put a character like that in a costume, I think it diminishes who that character is and it makes the idea of superheroics seem silly.” Link:http://ew.com/tv/2017/03/28/legends-tomorrow-felicity-superhero-death/ Matt's Inside Line: Scoop on Once, Lucifer, Scorpion, Arrow, Grimm, Suits, Mr. Robot, Chicago Med and More (Date: 30 March 2017) Any hint as to when Arrow's Thea will return? — Willa Holland will be on hand for the final three of this season's five remaining episodes. “Thea is the daughter of sociopaths, which is one of the biggest challenges any human being can really face,” notes co-showrunner Wendy Mericle, “so she's going to grappling with that and trying to understand: What is this in her that makes her so kind of Moira-esque, and how is she going to manage it? Ultimately, she and Oliver are going to come to the same conclusion about how to do that, by the finale.” Link:http://tvline.com/2017/03/30/once-upon-a-time-season-6-spoilers-snow-charming-sleeping-curse/ GENERAL DC TV NEWS Lynda Carter Confirms That She Is Playing A Durlan on Supergirl (Date: 28 March 2017) The episode of Supergirl, titled "Distant Sun," provided the audience with a much clearer look at the "true form" of President Olivia Marsdin, who had been revealed early this season as a shape-shifting alien. In the privacy of her own office Marsdin was able to transform completely into a quasi-reptilian alien form. Link:http://comicbook.com/2017/03/28/lynda-carter-confirms-that-she-is-playing-a-durlan-on-supergirl/ Will The Thinker Be The Flash's Season 4 Big Bad? (Date: 28 March 2017) When Abra Kadabra was talking to The Flash about his most dangerous foes, he rattled off a number of familiar names, including Zoom and Eobard Thawne...and one less-familiar one (at least to the TV audience): "DeVoe." Longtime comic book readers would recognize that name: Clifford DeVoe is a longtime Flash and Titans villain better known as The Thinker. Created in 1943, The Thinker is one of The Flash's earliest villains. Originally a foe to Jay Garrick, DeVoe battled three generations of Flashes before his death in The Flash #134 in 1998. After his death, though, his brain patterns were used to create an AI that went on to become an antihero.

You just want to play to your strengths, and keep having fun.” Link:http://www.cbr.com/legends-of-tomorrow-expect-new-characters-in-season-3/ LEGENDS OF TOMORROW PLAN TO RESTORE REALITY IN SEASON FINALE PROMO (Date: 29 March 2017) The finale, “Aruba,” will not air at its regular time, but will debut Tuesday, April 4th at 8:00 EST.

Queen has frequently used his Bratva connections to acquire information otherwise unavailable. There's a good chance this episode, titled “Bratva,” will delve into those very mafia connections.“Bratva” will also address Quentin Lance's (Paul Blackthorne) drug addiction and subsequent stint in rehab. Having just returned from rehab, Lance must come to terms with his past when reporter Susan Williams (Carly Pope) requests an interview regarding his drug habit. Rene Ramirez (Rick Gonzalez) must step in to make sure things stay on track.

Having Ra's al Ghul as your dad, it's likely to forge a very specific kind of person. They're close enough and different enough that I would love, at some point, to do a story with Nyssa and Talia. We'll also be dealing very directly with the fairly obvious question, which is: Wait a second, when Oliver met Ra's al Ghul, why didn't he say, ‘Hey, wait a minute, I think I met your daughter back in Russia!'” he added.Talia will arrive in “Second Chances,” the “Arrow” episode airing February 1, though it seems as though she'll only appear in the flashbacks in this particular episode. Link:http://www.cbr.com/arrows-talia-al-ghul-wont-be-a-nyssa-knockoff/ (I miss Katrina Law ~SP) Arrow: First Look at Julia Harkavy as Possible [SPOILER] (Date: 25 Jan 2017) Tina Boland, played by The Walking Dead's Julia Harkavy, was revealed to have a sonic scream, which she used to take down misogynistic bikers at a Hub City bar. And in the promo for next week's episode, titled 'Second Chances', it seems that the team tries to recruit Tina to become the new Black Canary. Whether or not Tina is convinced to become a vigilante - particularly Black Canary - is yet to be seen. While executive producer Marc Guggenheim teased that the events at the end of 'Who Are You?' "[lay] a very specific seed, with a very specific game plan on our part that we hope to see come to fruition." Link:http://comicbook.com/2017/01/26/arrow-first-look-julia-harkavy/ Neil Arrow EP Marc Guggenheim On Making Curtis More Terrific, Turning Artemis Evil (Date: 25 Jan 2017) Marc Guggenheim told Comicbook.com "If you've been watching the first nine episodes, he [Curtis] does have a tendency to get his ass kicked, as we kind of promised. As far as I'm concerned, turning Curtis Holt into a superhero is probably the biggest turn we've ever done on the show. Even more so than turning Laurel into the Black Canary. To my way of thinking, the only way you really earn that is if you show how difficult it is, and that means that Curtis ends up getting his ass kicked quite a bit. I think in episode 10, the mid-season premiere, he kind of hits bottom as far as his self-esteem is concerned, especially in light of the ultimatum that Paul gave him. Starting with episode 10 is his turn, I think, really more towards the Mr. Terrific we know from the comics."

The synopsis does include an important piece of information: the Waverider has been grounded. According to the synopsis, the Waverider is “incapacitated,” which likely means the Legends are stuck in whichever time they've landed in.

Fans of the “The Flash” comic book series will know stakes are high when Clive Yorkin is around. In the comics, Yorkin is a career criminal responsible for everything from robbery to murder. While imprisoned in solitary confinement, Yorkin is experimented on, causing the pleasure and pain receptors in his brain to be effectively reversed, and allowing him to drain the life essence from a person through touch.

According to a new synopsis for “The Martian Chronicles,” the “Supergirl” episode that airs on February 6, the White Martians will track her down in order to try her as a traitor to Mars. However, they'll have to get through Supergirl and Martian Manhunter first. Unlike her peers, M'gann showed remorse over the actions her people had taken against the Green Martians. As such, she escaped to Earth and hid out in Central City, acting as a bartender at Maggie Sawyer's favorite dive bar. This way, she remained undiscovered — that is, until now. Link:http://www.cbr.com/supergirl-white-martians-attack-in-new-episode-synopsis/ Chris FIRST DETAILS OF FLASH/SUPERGIRL MUSICAL EPISODE REVEALED (Date: 20 Jan 2017) The musical episode is titled “Duet,” and will take place on the March 21 edition of “The Flash,” with a lead-in on the March 20 episode of “Supergirl,” similar to how last fall's four-show crossover between The CW's DC Comics-based shows kicked off with a short lead-in scene on “Supergirl.” This falls roughly a year after the first TV meeting between “The Flash” and “Supergirl,” which happened on the “Worlds Finest” episode of “Supergirl” in March 2016. “Duet” will be directed by Arrowverse veteran Dermott Downs, who has helmed multiple episodes of “The Flash,” “Supergirl,” “Arrow” and “Legends of Tomorrow.” The episode will include musical numbers from “The Flash” stars Grant Gustin, Jesse L. Martin and Carlos Valdes; “Supergirl” stars Melissa Benoist and Jeremy Jordan; and “Legends of Tomorrow” co-star Victor Garber and “Arrow” regular John Barrowman, showing that the episode will also include Arrowverse vets known for their singing chops, even if they aren't part of the “Supergirl” and “Flash” casts.

The message of course refers refers to the widely publicized and condemned audio recording from Trump's 2005 appearance on “Access Hollywood,” in which the former reality-TV star boasted about kissing women and grabbing their genitals.

Executive producer Aaron Helbing said, “Gypsy is a very formidable adversary. He never realized the extent of his powers, and because of seeing Gypsy, he's going to become more and more in tune with his powers and what he can do, whether it's crossing dimensions or opening breaches much faster and quicker. He's going to be building confidence, and that'll definitely play into the rest of the season of helping Barry and the team stop Savitar from killing Iris.” Link:http://www.cbr.com/the-flash-cisco-ramon-vibe-gypsy-metahuman-superpowers/ Neil Supergirl plans Maggie/Alex-centric Valentine's Day episode (Date: 24 Jan 2017) Here's what we know: Alex (Chyler Leigh) is super excited for her first Valentine's Day with a girlfriend, but Maggie (Floriana Lima) is not keen on the Hallmark holiday, which leads to their first real fight.

It certainly seems like it. Hell, even director Kevin Smith, who helmed tonight's episode of The CW's hit sophomore series, thinks so. Got Smith has got good reason to believe it: During the course of the episode, at one point a frustrated Mon-El calls out "grife!" That's basically "Damn it!" In Legion-speak. The 31st Century team naturally have some slang that's particular to them...although it could turn out that's just a common exclamation in Interlac within the TV universe of Supergirl. That impression was rooted, in part, in the fact that fans have already seen evidence that the Legion not only exists in the world of Supergirl, but has a relationship with Superman. In the season 1 episode "Fortress," Supergirl headed to Superman's Fortress of Solitude for the first time and one of the first things the audience saw was a Legion of Super-Heroes flight ring mounted on a crystal dais inside. Lest you think that the "grife" was a clear indicator that Mon-El's long-teased secret is just that he knows of the Legion, that's probably not the case. When a Maaldorian was shooting at him, a Dominator stopped the shot, saying that Mon-El was to be spared. He then gave Mon-El a deep bow.

The Justice Society of America was conceived by editor Sheldon Mayer and writer Gardner Fox. The JSA first appeared in All Star Comics #3 (Winter 1940–1941). VIXEN - Probably the most recognizable member of the JSA's cast this time around was Vixen -- at least for fans of the CWverse. In addition to having her own animated series, Vixen -- an African-American woman who derives the power of animals from the Tantu Totem she wears around her neck -- had a memorable guest appearance on Arrow last season. Of course, that's all Mari. This woman? Mari's grandmother, Amaya Jiwe, who passed the totem down through their family. HOURMAN - Rex Tyler, also known as Hourman, is a Golden Age superhero and the first of a number of characters to use the Hourman name. Tyler has a number of superhuman abilities, like enhanced strength, reflexes, and healing -- but only for an hour at a time. His abilities are given to him by Miraclo, a drug he designed himself. There is an Hourman legacy including Rex's son Rick and an android from the 853rd Century programmed to act as a member of the Tyler family. The android, at a point in the past, presented Rex with an hourglass infused with tachyons -- time in its most basic form -- and that hourglass would become part of both his and Rick's costumes. Said hourglass has been seen on board the Waverider on previous episodes of DC's Legends of Tomorrow.. STARGIRL - Stargirl is Courtney Whitmore. In the TV series, she exists in 1942 -- but in the original comics, she was created (and existed) in 1999, and was part of a "next generation" of Justice Society members who came up in the late '90s and early 2000s. Courtney Whitmore was created by Geoff Johns and Lee Moder, and has a famous backstory: Johns named her after (and based her personality on) his sister Courtney, who died in the explosion of TWA Flight 800 in 1996. COMMANDER STEEL - Commander Steel is Hank Heywood, Sr., the first in a line of DC heroes to use variations on the Steel moniker. A legend in the World War II era and a member of the All-Star Squadron and later the Justice Society of America, Heywood's body had surgically-implanted mechanized steel devices that allowed his body to work on a superhuman level. Originally just "Steel," he was promoted to Commander Steel by President Roosevelt in 1940 -- so while this is his first appearance in live action, it's timeline-accurate to call him Commander Steel by this point in his career since the story takes place in 1942. DOCTOR MID-NITE - Doctor Mid-Nite is a name shared by a number of blind super-heroes and physicians with the ability to see in the darkness, using blackout bombs and martial arts to gain an advantage over criminals. Doctor Mid-Nite was created by Charles Reizenstein and Stan Aschmeier, first appearing in All-American Comics #25. OBSIDIAN - Obsidian is the son of Golden Age Green Lantern Alan Scott, a founding member of the JSA in the comics. He and his sister Jade would go on to play an important role in the Justice Society's sinoff groups the Young All-Stars and Infinity, Inc., as well as eventually joining the Justice Society itself. He was also briefly affiliated with the Justice League. LEAVENWORTH - The United States Penitentiary, Leavenworth is a medium-security United States federal prison for male inmates in northeast Kansas. On Arrow, it was revealed that Leavenworth is where John Diggle is being held while awaiting his court martial. KRIEGER - There are basically two figures who could have inspired Baron Krieger, even though there is no specific Baron Krieger in DC Comics. The first is Baron Blitzkrieg: Originally a World War II German army officer, the man who would be Baron Blitzkrieg was blinded when a concentration camp prisoner threw acid into his face. German scientists experimented on him, giving him injections of experimental drugs which would give him incredible powers for brief periods of time. The other possibility is Albrecht Krieger, who was basically Captain America, but for Nazis. A genetically-modified super-soldier, Krieger also had a mad scientist brother and a psychic sister we might have to worry about if it's him -- and while the backstory feels a lot more like Blitzkrieg's, Krieger has not only the name but the general look of this week's threat. MAX LORENZ - Max Lorenz was a famous singer, who lived in Germany around the time of World War II and is widely known as "Hitler's favorite tenor." Of course, it's a handy thing that Legends of Tomorrow star Victor Garber has the pipes to make that scene convincing. UBERMENSCH - It's worth noting that there are several references to "Übermensch" in here, which is derived from Nietzsche in Thus Spake Zarathustra, one of the influences for Superman, which is more or less what the word translates to directly. The term can literally translate to "Overman," which in the DC Comics universe is an alternate-universe version of Superman who lives on an Earth where the Nazis won World War II.REVERSE-FLASH - Eobard Thawne, the Reverse-Flash, may have something up his sleeve. At the end of The Flash's Season 3 premiere earlier this month, he said that while his future was as it should be, Barry's might not be. Barry then went home to discover a number of small anomalies that made his life and those of his friends worse. Now, we learn that "somebody" is outfitting the villains of history with future tech in order to push the world to a slightly worse place. Could Eobard Thawne have stepped right out of "Flashpoint" and into "Out of Time?" Either way, seeing him and Darhk together is enough to make seasoned Arrowverse fans quake in their boots even before they know the other members of Thawne's little Legion of Doom. ARROW NEWS THE CW RENEWS ARROW, FLASH, SUPERGIRL AND LEGENDS OF TOMORROW (Date: 08 Jan 2017) Renewal will bring “Arrow” to Season Six, “The Flash” to Season Four, and “Supergirl” and “Legends of Tomorrow” each to Season Three. It will mark “Supergirl's” second season on The CW, following its freshman outing on CBS.

However, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards), still reeling from Detective Malone's murder, is bent on revenge – she wants to stop Prometheus at any cost. While in prison, Diggle (David Ramsey) fights for his life. Gregory Smith directed the episode written by Ben Sokolowski & Brian Ford Sullivan. Link:https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/arrow/laurel-lances-return-is-further-teased-in-synopsis-for-arrow-season-5-a147940 ARROW: THE CALCULATOR IS NOT RETURNING – YET (Date: 09 Jan 2017) According to executive producer Marc Guggenheim, Donna and the Calculator won't be back because the show is moving in a new direction. Guggenheim also teased that Felicity will a meet a few people in the back half of the season that are connected to her past. Additionally, he explained that Felicity's new, darker direction can't be blamed solely on Billy Malone's death. Rather, her experiences over the course of the show will culminate in her new attitude. “Billy was the final straw,” he said. “It's also the sum of the fact that Felicity has been living in this darker world for the last four-plus years now…. How has that affected her way of thinking about things?” He added that this will be directly addressed in Season 5 Episode 11. Link:http://www.cbr.com/arrow-the-calculator-is-not-returning-yet/ ARROW: Greg Berlanti Teases More Appearances From Laurel Lance Across The CW (Date: 10 Jan 2017) While it hasn't been confirmed 100%, it's a pretty safe bet that this Laurel is the evil Black Siren from Earth 2, who was originally introduced in The Flash last year. While her motivations remain unknown, Arrow producer Greg Berlanti has teased the character's involvement in more than just the events of Arrow's fifth season. “We made a deal at the end of [season 4] to bring her back for a bunch of episodes. Katie is a part of the fabric of the show. Because the show, like a comic book, can move in different ways, and characters go and come, everybody that's ever been a part of the key and core ensemble has always had a place at the table for our show. There's the capacity for her to be [in all four shows]. At this moment, she's in three of them.” Link:https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/arrow/arrow-greg-berlanti-teases-more-appearances-from-laurel-lance-across-a148060 ARROW EPS ADMIT IT'S HARD TO DO THE SHOW WITHOUT A BLACK CANARY (Date: 11 Jan 2017) Co-showrunner Wendy Mericle said, “Look, it's hard to do a show about Green Arrow without having a Black Canary. I don't know if it will happen this season or when, but… we are going to be true to origins in the DC universe, and she's always going to be there.” So far on the show, three characters have carried the Canary name: Sara Lance, Laurel Lance and Evelyn Sharp. Link:http://www.cbr.com/arrow-eps-admit-its-hard-to-do-the-show-without-a-black-canary/ GENERAL DC TV NEWS The Mystery Surrounding Rip Hunter Is Revealed In New LEGENDS OF TOMORROW Synopsis (Date: 05 Jan 2017) LOST MEMORIES — When Damien Darhk (guest star Neal McDonough) and Malcolm Merlyn (guest star John Barrowman) try to capture Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) in 1967, they create an Aberration big enough to draw the attention of the Legends. However, when the team arrives they discover that Rip has no memories of his past due to “time drift” and is just a graduate film student. After trying to convince Rip of who he was, they discover that he possesses an incredibly powerful artifact known as the Spear of Destiny, which the Legion of Doom is after. Ray (Bradon Routh) and Nate (Nick Zano) realize that the Aberration has also affected them personally making it difficult to help the team. Meanwhile, Rory (Dominic Purcell) asks Stein (Victor Garber) for help and makes him promise to keep it a secret from the team. Caity Lotz, Franz Drameh and Maisie Richardson-Sellers also star. Dermott Downs directed the episode written by Keto Shimizu & Chris Fedak. Link: https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/legends_of_tomorrow/the-mystery-surrounding-rip-hunter-is-revealed-in-new-a147939 NEW LEGENDS OF TOMORROW EPS WILL STAR A WHOLE DIFFERENT RIP HUNTER (Date: 10 Jan 2017) The back half of season two kicks off on Tuesday, January 24 after the show's winter hiatus. That batch of episodes starts with an episode titled “Raiders of the Lost Art,” which guest stars a young George Lucas (or rather an actor named Matt Angel playing a young Lucas) and features the return of Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill). But Rip won't return the same as we previously knew him. Marc Guggenheim talked about the upcoming episodes and how the Spear of Destiny will impact the show. “The second half of the season is really paying off the Legion of Doom and what we now know is the MacGuffin of Season 2, the Spear of Destiny,” said Guggenheim. “Changing time is like painting with the biggest paintbrush possible; using the Spear of Destiny is like using a very, very fine-point technical pen.” Link: http://www.cbr.com/new-legends-of-tomorrow-eps-will-star-a-whole-different-rip-hunter/ The Girl Of Steel Visits Another World In Synopsis For Kevin Smith's Episode Of SUPERGIRL (Date: 05 Jan 2017) KEVIN SMITH DIRECTS; ROULETTE RETURNS — Kara (Melissa Benoist) is moved by the story of a missing woman named Izzy (guest star Harley Quinn Smith) and decides to investigate despite Snapper Carr's (guest star Ian Gomez) order to leave it alone. Kara takes Mon-El (Chris Wood) with her to the last place Izzy was seen and the duo find themselves thrust through a portal to another planet, Slaver's Moon, where the downtrodden are sold as slaves. The leader of the trafficking ring is none other than Roulette (guest star Dichen Lachman). To make matters worse, Slaver's Moon has a red sun, which means Kara and Mon-El are stripped of their powers and stuck on the planet with no way home. Meanwhile, back on Earth, Alex (Chyler Leigh) blames herself for Kara's disappearance, fearing she's become too focused on her new relationship with Maggie (guest star Floriana Lima) and too complacent in watching out for her sister. Kevin Smith directed the episode with story by Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Eric Carrasco & Jess Kardos.

When a criminal named Plunder (guest star Stephen Huszar) shows up in Central City, Barry recalls the villain's presence in his vision of the future and fears that if he catches Plunder, it will cement Iris' fate. Confused about Barry's hesitation to stop Plunder, Wally (Keiynan Lonsdale) decides to step in as Kid Flash. Caitlin (Danielle Panabaker) offers Julian (Tom Felton) a job. Millicent Shelton directed the episode written by Grainne Godfree & David Kob. Link: https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/the_flash/wally-west-steps-up-as-kid-flash-in-synopsis-for-the-flash-season-a147935 SUPERGIRL / FLASH MUSICAL WILL HAVE ‘GREAT IMPACT' ON BOTH SHOWS (Date: 09 Jan 2017) The upcoming musical crossover between “Supergirl” and “The Flash” isn't just going to be a fun gimmick. According to executive producer Andrew Kreisberg, the two-part story will have lasting ramifications on both shows. According to Kreisberg. “When we get to the musical episodes, both Barry and Kara will find themselves at pivotal crossroads on their respective series, and the experience of going through the musical will have a great impact on both series moving forward.” Executive producer Greg Berlanti confirmed the villain will indeed be the Music Meister, who can control people through song. What's more, the musical crossover will feature original songs and could include characters from any Earth or timeline in the “Arrow”-verse. No date has been announced for “The Flash”/”Supergirl” crossover. Link: http://www.cbr.com/supergirl-flash-musical-will-have-great-impact-on-both-shows/ DC COMICS' SOLOVAR ARRIVES IN FLASH'S TWO-PART GORILLA CITY STORY (Date: 09 Jan 2017) “The Flash” is taking a trip to Gorilla City in episodes 13 and 14 of season three. The series will also introduce a new telepathic gorilla straight from the comics, Solovar. Keith David will provide the voice of Solovar in the Gorilla Grodd-centric two-parter. David is a film and television veteran with a career spanning decades. Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg announced the return of Grodd and Gorilla City during a presentation at the TCAs. Kreisberg also revealed that the two-parter will span multiple Earths. “One of the episodes will take place in Gorilla City [on Earth-2], and one of them will take place on Earth-1.” In the comics, Solovar — a psychic gorilla like Grodd — is the leader of Gorilla City. Under his rule, Gorilla City became a technological wonder. Solovar's involvement in “The Flash's” Grodd/Gorilla City two-parter makes sense considering that Solovar is Grodd's main rival (other than the Scarlet Speedster) in the comics. Link: http://www.cbr.com/dc-comics-solovar-arrives-in-flashs-two-part-gorilla-city-story/ BLACK FLASH TO RETURN ON ‘MULTIPLE' ARROWVERSE SERIES (Date: 08 Jan 2017) As expected, “The Flash” viewers haven't seen the last of Hunter “Zoom” Zolomon. However, when the character returns, it may not only be on that CW drama — and he may not be portrayed by Teddy Sears. Transformed by time wraiths into Black Flash and then pulled into the Speed Force in “The Flash's” Season Two finale, the villain will indeed race back into the Arrowverse.“I will say that you might be seeing him on multiple shows,” executive producer Andrew Kreisberg revealed at the Television Critics Association's winter press tour. He didn't say which shows those are, or when fans can expect Black Flash's return. “[Black Flash] is a classic character. We have storylines on multiple shows that fit having him around,” he said. “There's something so scary about him, something even scarier than when he was just the man, because now it's now he is the Grim Reaper, he is the devil. How do you stop the devil? So it presents an interesting challenge for the heroes of the respective shows in which he appears.” Link: http://www.cbr.com/black-flash-to-return-on-multiple-arrowverse-series/ ‘Constantine' Back As Animated Series For CW Seed With Greg Berlanti Producing (Date: 08 Jan 2017) Constantine, which had a one-season run on NBC, will be back as an animated series for CW Seed. Five to six 10-minute episodes have been ordered. Matt Ryan, who starred in the live-action DC series, will voice the title character. Link: http://deadline.com/2017/01/constantine-back-animated-series-cw-seed-greg-berlanti-producing-matt-ryan-1201880788/ SUPERGIRL CASTS PETER GADIOT AS MISTER MXYZPTLK (Date: 07 Jan 2017) A new photo from the set of the CW drama reveals that actor Peter Gadiot, who played Cyrus on ABC's short-lived “Once Upon a Time in Wonderland,” has been cast as the classic Superman foe. However, we can see that the impish villain won't look anything like he does in the DC Comics source material, where he's traditionally depicted as an older, diminutive character. Created by writer Jerry Siegel and artist Ira Yarborough for 1944's “Superman” #30, Mister Mxyzptlk is a mischievous imp from the fifth dimension who delights in tormenting the Man of Steel. Link: http://www.cbr.com/supergirl-casts-peter-gadiot-as-mister-mxyzptlk/ THE CW HAS ‘NO PLANS' FOR A SUPERMAN SERIES (Date: 08 Jan 2017) “Tyler did a great job,” The CW President Mark Pedowitz said. “There's no plan to do a series. There are no plans at the moment for him to return [to ‘Supergirl']. If they wish to have him return, we'd love to have him.” Link: http://www.cbr.com/the-cw-has-no-plans-for-a-superman-series/ THE FLASH Will Weave Kid Flash, Killer Frost And Gypsy Story Arcs Into Remaining Season 3 Episodes (Date: 07 Jan 2017) Armed with that knowledge Barry and his allies will be frantically searching for ways to prepare for an inevitable second round with the God of Speed. As for the rest of Team Flash, the co-showrunner adds that Gypsy (played by the recently cast Jessica Camacho of Sleepy Hollow) will be playing an important adversarial role in Cisco's budding superhero career, Caitlin will continue to wrestle with her Killer Frost alter ego and Wally West will continue to fly off the handle and cause trouble as Kid Flash.

Ninjas plus musketeers plus Legends Fight on the Dock Sarah v. Damien Darhk Team was totally not coordinated Time Travel: Share your thoughts 1637 - Have to save the future of France by making sure King and Queen conceive Sara seduced by Queen Mick, Stein, and Rip - Three Musketeers End up using powers because others had laser guns 1942 - New York - source of the Time Quake Told by Rex not to go there Go there to save NYC Einstein, Nazis, great costumes, U-boat, Atomic bomb Even the Legends are guilty of assuming only a man could have the knowledge to make the bomb Time Scatter - 70 mya - Ray in South Dakota w/Dino 821 Tintangel, England - Stein and Jax wizards of a court 1693 Salem - Sara accused of being a witch, happily corrupting women Sara Lance / White Canary They don't pull any punches right off the bat with Sarah's sexuality, or with her physicality “Shut your mouth, Jax, or I'll cut your eyes out and feed 'em to you.” They make her desire for revenge on Damien Darhk a big part of the character right out of the gate as well. Leads to the confrontation on the Waverider when Ray calls her out for trailing the Nazis. Ray Palmer / The Atom Still the boy scout Follows Sara when she says she's going to see Grandpa in FBI Is he just a guy in a suit? Mick Rory / Heat Wave Found by Ollie and Heywood in statis Injured during fight, why Rip put him in stasis; gets to pilot the Waverider to find team Follows orders in France by not bringing gun, but breaks them by stealing Einstein thinks he is the brains of the operation Martin Stein / Firestorm Giddy to meet Einstein, but disappointed (Never meet your heroes) Jefferson Jackson / Firestorm I really dig his knowledge of the ship Foreshadows finding the hidden section of the ship later on. Nate Heywood / Steel Goes to Ollie because he realizes Legends are in trouble Time detective Amaya Jiwe / Vixen Rip Hunter Seems like he spends a lot of the episode frustrated I get what he was doing with Jax (reminded me of the Karate Kid a bit with wax on wax off), but was it necessary Couldn't he have told the crew about the time scatter earlier? Rehearsed an emergency drill or something? Gideon Without saying much except for “I'm here Captain” before the time scatter, Gideon seems really human. Damn Justice Society of America (JSA) Obsedian Commander Steel Dr. Mid-Nite Stargirl Legion of Doom Damien Darhk Is the one who supplied the Nazis with uranium Recognizes Sara's fighting style Germans want him to get another bomb, reveals his partner wants to move on Eobard Thawne / Reverse-Flash Revealed at end to be Darhk's partner Malcolm Merlyn CURRENT EPISODE DC EASTER EGGS & POP CULTURE REFERENCES Season 02 Episode 01 “Out of Time” (Date: 13 Oct 2016) Article:http://comicbook.com/dc/2016/10/13/dcs-legends-of-tomorrow-things-you-might-have-missed-in-out-of-t/ Out of Time - As has been the case a lot in the first couple of weeks of The CW's TV season, the episode's title -- "Out of Time" -- is a bit of a reference in and of itself. It's likely been the name of a number of time travel-related stories -- but most recently, it was the name of a story that ran through The Flash #30-35 (from the 2011 series) and featured, among other villains, The Reverse-Flash. The fact that the final moments of the episode incorporate the "surprise" appearance of Eobard Thawne, then, suggests this could have been a more-than-incidental use of the name. OLIVER QUEEN - Oliver Queen, seen wearing a suit and not in his Green Arrow costume for the purposes of this season finale, is played by Stephen Amell. The star of Arrow, Oliver is generally considered the genesis point for The CW's DC Universe (even though they obviously had Smallville and Birds of Prey long before Arrow came along). Amell's Green Arrow appeared in the series premieres of both The Flash and DC's Legends of Tomorrow, so this episode more or less continues a tradition. NATE HEYWOOD - Nick Zano joins the cast as Nate Heywood -- "Citizen Steel" -- who in the comics inherits the powers and costume of his grandfather. He's a troubled individual, suffering from both physical and emotional damage, in the comics -- but as Zano told ComicBook.com at Comic Con International: San Diego, that's not the direction they're going with Heywood on TV. THE THREE MUSKETEERS - Cardinal Richelieu, depicted as one of the villains of Alexandre Dumas' The Three Musketeers, being included in this episode more or less cements the idea that they look like that on purpose -- and explains why certain characters who were strategically important in the fight -- like Jax, for instance -- had to stay out of sight. REX TYLER - Rex Tyler, the Golden Age Hourman and a veteran member of the Justice Society of America, is one of a number of DC heroes who would pass on his name and legacy numerous times over the decades to come in the comics. On TV, he made a single, brief appearance at the end of the season 1 finale of DC's Legends of Tomorrow, and will show up again -- with the rest of the Justice Society this time -- in next week's episode as well. DAMIEN DARHK - Damien Darhk was the season four big bad on Arrow. Like Ra's al Ghul, he's a very old man who has been kept relatively young by the Lazarus Pit because of his position of power and authority first within the League of Assassins and later in H.I.V.E. Originally created as a villain in The Titans, Darhk's control of H.I.V.E. made him an ideal choice when The CW decided to introduce a magical villain last year. He was nearly unbeatable until Oliver figured out how to manipulate Darhk's energy to his own ends, and now he's dead -- except that as somebody who's been not only alive, but rich and powerful for decades, he's surprisingly easy for a time-traveling troublemaker to find and recruit. ALBERT EINSTEIN - First of all, he's appeared in DC Comics before. In an oversized issue Superman vs. Wonder Woman, Nazis went after Einstein in 1942. Ultimately, Wonder Woman rescues him but ends up finding out about the Manhattan Project. After becoming a person of interest for a while and throwing down with Superman a bit, she ends up teaming up with the Last Son of Krypton to track down and defeat Baron Blitzkrieg. Secondly, the thing with his wife is actually based in historical controversy. Mileva Marić was a Serbian physicist and has long been rumored to have coauthored Einstein's 1905 paper on relativity. INSULTING RAY - Calling him a "boy scout" feels like a nod to Brandon Routh's time as Superman, but the whole "what are you without that suit?" reeks of Marvel's The Avengers. That's a comic book movie reference twofer! REVERSE-FLASH - Eobard Thawne, the Reverse-Flash, may have something up his sleeve. At the end of The Flash's Season 3 premiere earlier this month, he said that while his future was as it should be, Barry's might not be. Barry then went home to discover a number of small anomalies that made his life and those of his friends worse. Now, we learn that "somebody" is outfitting the villains of history with future tech in order to push the world to a slightly worse place. Could Eobard Thawne have stepped right out of "Flashpoint" and into "Out of Time?" Either way, seeing him and Darhk together is enough to make seasoned Arrowverse fans quake in their boots even before they know the other members of Thawne's little Legion of Doom. ARROW NEWS New Arrow trailer reveals Laurel Lance twist (Date: 03 Jan 2017) Laurel is the Black Siren. Promo is from EW.com. Arrow returns Wednesday, Jan. 25 at 8 p.m. ET on The CW. Link:http://ew.com/tv/2017/01/03/arrow-laurel-lance-black-siren-video/ Diggle is Making a new friend! (Date: 04 Jan 2017) Wendy Mericle told TVLine: “Diggle emerges from jail with a much bigger drive, and not the same fatalism that he had earlier in the season. He's going to come up against Colonel Walker and grow closer to Adrian Chase.” Guess having a good lawyer on his side in the form of the DA, as well as Vigilante, will help! Link:https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/01/04/john-diggle-makes-new-friend-arrow-returns/ Talia to play a crucial role in the Prometheus arc! (Date: 04 Jan 2017) * Speaking with TV Line, Mericle called the Prometheus mystery "a gift that keeps on giving for the rest of the season," adding that it will be Ra's al Ghul's daughter, Talia al Ghul, who plays a "crucial part" in helping Oliver solve the Prometheus mystery. * Stargate SG-1 actress Lexa Doig was recently cast to play the DC TV version of Talia on Arrow Link:http://comicbook.com/2017/01/04/arrow-talia-al-ghul-prometheus-connection/ com's Five predictions for the second half of S.05 (Date: 05 Jan 2017) Guys, do we agree or disagree: 1. Laurel will drive a lot of the story in the second half of the season 2. The Prometheus story will heat up 3. Talia will appear in the present (she's only been in flashbacks so far) 4. The Arrow v. Vigilante fight will boil over into city hall (in politics) 5. Reforming and coming back to the Original Team Arrow is the endgame (Oliver, Felicity, Diggle) Link:http://comicbook.com/2017/01/05/arrow-five-predictions-for-remainder-of-season-5/ GENERAL DC TV NEWS FIRST CLIP FROM KEVIN SMITH'S SUPERGIRL EP SHOWS CASUAL, QUIPPY TONE (Date: 27 Dec 2016) After directing an episode of season two of “The Flash,” Kevin Smith is returning to the CW to direct an episode of “Supergirl”. There's one big development that's revealed in the clip: Mon-El finally got a job! He's working as a bartender, which makes a lot of sense given his party-boy Daxamite background. True to form though, he's not great at fetching club soda for Kara, preferring to serve her something brown and boozy. Link:http://www.cbr.com/first-clip-from-kevin-smiths-supergirl-ep-shows-casual-quippy-tone/ Tense Flash clip finds Barry and Wally at odds (Date: 27 Dec 2016) Wally, reveling in his newly rediscovered Kid Flash powers, appears to have gotten a little over eager during what was supposed to be a training session with Barry. Despite the fact that he saves the Flash's life, Barry is none too happy with his protégé, and brings him to task for doing instead of observing and learning like he was supposed to.The clip also teases the introduction of another villain from the comics, with Wally bragging about how he put Plunder into Iron Heights. Plunder was previously shown in a season three episode in a news report, wearing an eye patch. Link:http://www.cbr.com/tense-flash-clip-finds-barry-and-wally-at-odds/ New Legends Of Tomorrow trailer Features Legion Of Doom (Date: xx month year) * The CW Television Network has just dropped a brand new trailer for the second-half of the second season of DC's Legends of Tomorrow. * It begins with Nate and Ray mentioning for the first time that Eobard Thawne (Matt Letscher), Damien Darhk (Neal McDonough) and Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman) are member of the Legion of Doom — though White Canary doesn't want to call them that. * We also learn, from a Sara-Jax exchange, that the Legion have Rip Hunter. * Lots of great action! Link:http://comicbook.com/2016/12/24/new-legends-of-tomorrow-trailer-features-legion-of-doom/ Jeremy Jordan Talks Winn's Evolution on Supergirl (Date: 02 Jan 2017) Jeremy Jordan discusses with Comicbook.com how Winn is developing from last season now that he is with the DEO instead of CatCo. "I think that Winn has become a foil for the audience in terms of how he's giving us the fanboy reaction play by play, and that's a really fun, exciting aspect of Winn to play," Jordan said. "That's 'old Winn.' That who Winn has always been at his core. At the same time, Winn is growing up and learning to guard himself and learning to protect his friends and he kind of becomes a little bit of the sage advice-giver this season, whether he's giving advice to Alex or cautioning James to take it easy. I think he's learned a lot from Cat and he's learned a lot from his experience in the past year or so and it's forced him to grow up a lot."

It seems pretty clear that Johns' return to writing a DC comic will involve the Watchmen characters that were behind the Rebirth event. But will that be a new series exclusively focusing on those characters or are we looking at another crossover event? There's still a lot of mystery surrounding Ozymandias and Doctor Manhattan's role in Rebirth so the safe bet would be another event series continuing on from where Rebirth left off. As far as a new DCTV series is concerned, will it be airing on The CW, Fox, Syfy or some other network? And with the large number of DC characters already appearing on the various shows, will it be another spinoff series?

Kara still has to figure out how she feels about him." * The fact that we now know Mon-El is hiding a possibly nefarious secret will also have to be addressed, with Adler acknowledging, "A lot of secrets have been brewing this season," and that as season 2 gets into its latter half, "We'll get definitive answers."

The Starling Tribune: An Unofficial Arrow TV Show Fan Podcast
Starling Tribune - Season 5 Special Edition – Arrow Season 5 Predictions (A CW Network Arrow Television Show Fan Podcast) #122 The Official Arrow Podcast of the Gonna Geek Network Next Week: Arrow - Season 5 Episode 1 - “Legacy” NEW BEGINNINGS — After Laurel's (Katie Cassidy) death and the departures of both Diggle (David Ramsey) and Thea (Willa Holland) from Team Arrow, Oliver (Stephen Amell) takes to the streets solo to protect Star City's citizens as the Green Arrow. With Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) guiding him from the bunker, Oliver is forced to deal with a city that has become overrun with both criminals and a slew of new (and painfully inexperienced) vigilantes. Watching Oliver try to balance his jobs as both the mayor and also the protector of Star City, Felicity suggests he form a new team, but Oliver resists. However, when a deadly new criminal, Tobias Church (guest star Chad L. Coleman), enters the picture, Oliver realizes the best thing for the city might be a new team of superheroes. Meanwhile, the flashbacks take us to Russia where Oliver faces off against the Bratva. James Bamford directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti and teleplay by Marc Guggenheim & Wendy Mericle (#501).

With Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) guiding him from the bunker, Oliver is forced to deal with a city that has become overrun with both criminals and a slew of new (and painfully inexperienced) vigilantes. Watching Oliver try to balance his jobs as both the mayor and also the protector of Star City, Felicity suggests he form a new team, but Oliver resists. However, when a deadly new criminal, Tobias Church (guest star Chad L. Coleman), enters the picture, Oliver realizes the best thing for the city might be a new team of superheroes. Meanwhile, the flashbacks take us to Russia where Oliver faces off against the Bratva.

Zoom's metahuman army wreaks havoc across the city. Barry puts out several fires and takes out some of the metahumans to help the police. Back at S.T.A.R. Labs, Barry displays a level of confidence in stopping Zoom that concerns the team, and each of them attempts to convince him to be more cautious. Caitlin returns to the team, but not without emotional trauma from being kidnapped. A metahuman begins attacking various buildings around Central City using a sonic blast. Barry confronts the metahuman, who turns out to be Laurel Lance's doppelganger, "Black Siren". She initially gets the upper hand, but Barry is rescued by Wally, who is trying to help out in order to repay the Flash. The team creates a sonic amplifier tuned to the frequency of Earth-2 natives. They discharge it and render all Earth-2 metahumans unconscious, allowing Barry to apprehend them all at once, although Zoom escapes. Later, Zoom returns and kidnaps Henry in front of the team. Barry races after them, revealing his identity to Wally, and is forced to watch Zoom kill his father.
After Zoom unleashes an army of Earth-2 meta-humans on Central City, Barry is shaken when he sees their leader is the Black Canary’s Earth-2 doppelganger, the Black Siren. Meanwhile, Wally takes to the streets to help The Flash stop the meta-humans, which worries Joe. Iris and Henry are concerned about Barry taking on Zoom. Host Lisa Schmeiser with Tony Sindelar and Philip Mozolak.

The writers have written so well for me and I've had such an incredible arc. It made sense to me creatively. Laurel's story has come to an end in the Arrowverse. I love everyone on set and our crew. Being there for four and a half years, they've become family, so it's hard to not go into work every day and get to work with such amazing people. That part is certainly sad, but I was okay with it. We all came to an understanding that this was what was going to happen and it made sense to me. I think the shock value is good. It's such a jolt and a turn in the story that it gives the writers so much more to do and places to go with it. Otherwise, I feel like shows can get stale.

It's change, but change rooted in keeping the status quo of what currently works for the company, while cutting the more experimental, diverse series that hadn't been selling—while tossing in die-hard, fan-friendly bonuses like the return of the classic Superman.
