If you want a look at a ranking for all of the crossovers, check out Paul’s article HERE. I’ll be reviewing the crossover as a whole, but in two parts since there is so much material.

SPOILER REVIEW: Arrow 5.12 “Bratva”
Episode 104: 5 x 12 Air Date: February 8 2017 Bratva In last week’s episode, we traveled to Russia, the focus of Arrow’s famed flashbacks this entire season. In the beginning, we found Oliver and Talia taking down some low-level drug dealers/target practice in a flashback. We see Oliver’s skills come to light. We switch to the present where we find Oliver and Susan in his office, when low and behold Quentin Lance comes back. (YAY) Quentin says he has no intention of hiding his problems and agrees to do an interview with Susan to talk about the alcohol issues. Oliver then runs off to a press conference to thank…

SPOILER REVIEW: Arrow: 5.11 “Second Chances”
Here we go. Please bear with me. I’m new here, I’m a huge fan of Arrow, with a need for a slight romantic vibe, so needless to say, I want Oliver to be with Felicity, but we can get to that some other time. I’ve watched this show from day one, so I’ve been with it through all of its good days and bad days. In my opinion, there’s more good than bad, so I will disagree with many critics of this show. But down to business. This week’s episode covered the introduction of the (potential) new black canary. I’m extremely partial to Katie Cassidy’s portrayal of her, so I…

FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 2×18- “Versus Zoom”
The Flash (2×18) – “Versus Zoom” Written by: Joe Peracchio & David Kob Directed by: Stefan Pleszczynski After a quick retelling of the night Nora was murdered and a scene from the night Joe brought Barry into his home for contrast we slide on over to Earth-2 and see the night Hunter Zolomon’s mother was murdered. Unlike Barry, Hunter’s mom was actually killed by her father right in front of and instead of being taken into a loving home by a family friend, lil’ Hunter is dropped off at the Central City evil orphanage where he will no doubt receive the same loving care that made Tom Riddle into the…

FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 2×17 – “Flash Back”
The Flash (2×17) – “Flash Back” Written by: Aaron and Todd Helbing Directed by: Alice Troughton So, here we go. Again. The team has discovered that their friend was an enemy in disguise and Barry is taking it hard because “Fool Team Flash once, shame on Thawne… Fool Team Flash twice, shame on Team Flash.” He’s in the midst of a research montage as we open trying to crack the science behind his powers. (And after he figures out that science maybe he can finally tell us why repolarizing the main deflector dish on the Enterprise seems to solve every problem.) Meanwhile “Jay’s” helmet is giving off so many vibes…

FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 2×16 – “Trajectory”
The Flash (2×16) – “Trajectory” Written by: Lilah Vanderburgh & Lauren Certo Directed by: Glen Winter Okay! So between working thirteen days in a row, a little indie film I went and saw about the Dawn (Go ahead, ask me if I loved Batman v Superman!) and winter’s parting gift of a chest cold I’m not exactly timely with my Flash review but enough with the procrastination and on with the review. When we last left Barry and Team Flash he’d vowed to get fast enough to return to Earth-2, defeat Zoom and avenge Jay’s death. What better way to do that than recreate Evel Knievel at the Snake River…

The Hype is Real: SUPERGIRL/FLASH Teaser Video Released
So before we dig in, allow me to eat crow for a second. Ask anyone here at WOBAM Entertainment and they will tell you I said last fall that the DC/CW-Verse would never crossover with Supergirl. My reasons were that CBS wouldn’t really gain much from the crossover since the CW’s reach is much smaller than theirs and the logical choice for CBS would be an attempt to crossover with the Film Universe. I was wrong, but we all win. In two weeks, Barry Allen makes his way to National City and meets Kara Danvers. We’ve already had this cool teaser poster: Then yesterday, Paul gave you a taste of…
