The CW‘s Arrowverse will expand with its next spinoff series next year. Superman & Lois shifts the focus to Clark Kent and his wife, as they balance the challenges of superheroics and raising two sons. The show is already confirmed to feature several new characters, such as Lana Lang and The Stranger (rumored to be an alternate version of Lex Luthor). The Arrowverse shows are known for focusing on characters from the comics. Some are making their live action debuts, while others are being re-adapted or even crossing over from other shows. That is expected to be the same with Superman & Lois. And considering the Man of Steel’s gallery…

Ranking Every Season of ARROW
The CW’s Arrow recently ended its eight-season run, in the aftermath of the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover. While not the longest-running superhero show, its legacy is still unparalleled. Not only did it increase the cultural impact of Green Arrow and his supporting cast, but it spawned a shared universe that consists of several ongoing shows. This culminated in Crisis on Infinite Earths, which used the Multiverse to connect countless DC shows and movies spanning decades. Now, with Oliver Queen‘s story finished, we wanted to look back at Arrow, season-by-season. Of course, not every season is on the same level of quality; some are good, some are great, some are…

5 Characters Who Can Replace Kate Kane as The CW’s Batwoman
A couple weeks ago, it was announced that Ruby Rose had exited from the lead role on The CW‘s Batwoman. The news was shocking, as the Arrowverse has never lost a series lead like this before. Multiple reasons were given as to why Rose left, but at the time, it was said that the role of Kate Kane will be recast. Despite that, recent reports have suggested that a new character will assume the mantle next season, rather than recasting Kane. While unconfirmed, it would make some sense. It would free the show of the risk of bringing in a new face for Kane for fans to get used to,…

The Legacy of ARROW – Eight Seasons and a Universe
Arrow started as a show about a guy wanting to atone for his father’s sins. Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was nothing more than a rich douchebag who only cared about himself.

Recap: Arrow Season 8
Ollie’s back, and he’s teaching us how to say goodbye, one last time. This final season of Arrow is much shorter (making my job easier), which means we cut out all of the filler. We see Oliver travel with the Monitor preparing for the upcoming Crisis. The stories are tight and act as a fitting conclusion to the series. Each episode is a love letter to the series. We see Oliver, Diggle, and Laurel travel to different Earths and familiar locations throughout the season. We go to Lian Yu, Russia, Earth-2, Hong Kong, and of course, Star City. We have Oliver getting closure with characters like Katana and Anatoly, while…
