The Dark Archer is a great name for an objectively terrible villain. Lucky for him, everyone else was equally incompetent. The Dark Archer first appeared in Thrilling Comics #26. -- Get hot fresh buns on the go with the Carbunator! https://carbunator.car/best   The word in the disclaimer is "boner." Apparently in the 1940s people used it in children's comics to mean a clumsy mistake. We mention it between 2:20-2:40 initially, and then again at the end of Dark Archer's section at 6:25.

"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.

Come back to "Starling City" with Oliver Queen. Now in service of the Monitor, he begins his travels on the road to his final destiny by experiencing what life might have been in this alternate reality. Here, Oliver has been missing from the boat tragedy for twelve years. Black Siren and the Hood have been trying to protect the city from the Dark Archer. But the Hood is Adrian Chase and the bad guy is Tommy Merlyn. First, Oliver has to restrain his emotions as he comes to terms with his new reality. His mother Moira is alive and married to Malcolm. Thea has died of a drug overdose because he wasn't there to save her. But the Monitor won't let him worry about minor details like that. He must retrieve a dwarf-star particle to help for the upcoming Crisis. But Tommy has other plans for it. Luckily, Diggle followed Oliver to Earth-2 and helps him out despite all of his friend's objections. With Oliver's final fate looming, our hero experiences pains of the past and alternative possibilities before seeing what may be in store for his universe. Jay and Josh begin the Undertaking of breaking down the final season of Green Justice: An Arrow Podcast!

Fight/stunt 3 Battle in the oculus chamber.  Lots of firing, heat gun, cold gun etc. Time travel: Thoughts on the tropes and mechanics Nice flashback to start, back to the recruiting scene in 2016 Great to see the team back before all the messing with the timeline Jax - “Something called time travel - the team's in trouble”.  Very Bill and Ted showing up in his own past once he's left the room. (Marty! It's your kids!) This timetravel model, there is no free will - only free will at the vanishing point Nothing you can do to change time?   Part 2: The Characters Rip Hunter Rate on a scale of 1 (Capt. of the Titanic - Edward John Smith) to 10 (the best - Picard) Freaking out with “NO ONE CONTROLS ME” which breaks him. “You lot guard the entrance”. I'm sorry, but is “you lot” the official way to address the crew. Well, it's either that or walk the plank Argggg! Shrinks Ray to carry him. Vandal Savage “An appointment I have… with Destiny” kinda sounds like an exotic dancer Execution of Rip's family - still murders Miranda and Jonas Time Masters The Reveal of the oculus and the reveal of the master manipulation of the entire crew Ordered Savage to kill Rip's family to motivate him.  Super dick move. Guy doing the induction process kinda enjoys it. Love the time ships preparing to jump in the hangar, like the rebel fleet about to attack the death star or the Mass Effect Pelicans getting ready for a combat drop or the Space Marines about to assault the Alien Queen with Ripley The Atom - Ray Palmer Still cares for Kendra - freaked out when she was shot by the prison guards. Continues the theme of believing in the face of adversity Interesting bonding with Mick & how he survived not being turned into Chronos “All I wanted to do was make a difference.”  Keeps working even though that's how he dies. White Canary - Sara Lance And she's a badass pilot.  “Punch it Gideon” “Want to steal a kiss from me… you better be one hell of a thief”.  Dammit, I really wanted these two to get together. - then the final kiss just kills me. Hawkgirl - Kendra Saunders Kinda loses it when she realizes Savage is going to kill Rip's family.  That was the whole point of the mission… well, that and saving the earth from Savage's destruction and reign. They arguably failed at all of that and made it worse. No barista reference. Hawkman - Carter Hall In stasis - not in this episode Captain Cold - Leonard Snart I freakin' love Snart in the past Dammit - I want an entire show of just Sara and Snart “There are no strings on me”  Frickin beautiful line.

On the fourth episode of Season 2.5 of The Flash Podcast's summer season, Andy Behbakht is joined by several terrific guests, with Brian Roll (better known as the artist Odyssey Art Torch who we teamed up with for a giveaway a few months ago!) as well as Nerd Repository's Kyle Wilson (who guested on last year's summer season) and Alan Schuler, for the third character review for Season 2.   As we have discussed several of the heroic supporting characters in the past few weeks, this week it's all about the big bad of Season 2 – Hunter Zolomon a.k.a. the terrifying Zoom, played by Teddy Sears. Throughout the discussion, the four nerds discuss Sears as Barry's latest villain who at first posed as Jay Garrick, the Flash of Earth-2 before being revealed as Zoom. How does Hunter compare to the show's first big bad, Eobard Thawne a.k.a. Reverse-Flash? What did they feel about Hunter's backstory and motivations? Who would they want to see as the big bad of Season 3? In addition, they discuss the big news of Arrow's John Barrowman signing on to be a series regular on not just Arrow, but also The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow. How will the Dark Archer fit in on these other DC TV shows? That and more on the summer season of The Flash Podcast! In addition, check out Brian's new art of Hunter Zolomon a.k.a. Zoom below! [NOTE: This episode was recorded on Monday, July 11, which was the day BEFORE the news of Keiynan Lonsdale's Wally West becoming Kid Flash in Season 3 which is why there was no discussion about the news - but don't worry, we will talk about it on air next time!] Find The Flash Podcast on: Social Media: Facebook - @TheFlashPodcast - Instagram  Subscribe: iTunes - Stitcher Radio - YouTube - DC TV Podcasts Contact: theflashpodcast@gmail.com

HEROES ARE FORGED AND SACRIFICES MADE IN THIS EPIC SEASON FINALE — Oliver and Diggle race to stop the Dark Archer from unleashing his vengeance on The Glades. However, they run into a roadblock after Detective Lance picks up Felicity for questioning. Tommy and Oliver’s already tumultuous relationship takes a turn for the worse after Oliver makes a confession about Laurel. After hearing of the danger in The Glades, Thea races to find Roy, inadvertently putting herself directly in the line of fire for Malcolm’s devious plan. On the island, Oliver, Slade and Shado (guest star Celina Jade) are locked in a life-or-death struggle against Fyers (guest star Sebastian Dunn) as his missiles lock on a full Ferris Air jetliner.

Merlyn in the comics is always trying to be the better archer  which leads to most of their confrontation. They touch on this in this weeks episode.
