Everyone loves Beebo  Sara gets heavily featured and proven that as Captain she’s already a leader of people. Makes sense she would lead the group.

I literally cheered when i saw him in suit on screen again. o Michelle  OMG they combined all the current CW DC shows (Stargirl on her own Earth)  Sara in charge; given great moments: leading fight w/Beebo, heart-to-heart w/Barry; coordinating fight w/Anti-Monitor and shadow demons; speech to Anti-Monitor - For Oliver!  Surprise Flash cameo  Black Lightning part of Justice League.

He should be here and be a potential voice of reason for not using a Lazarus PitIts a sendoff for Smallville but no Welling in suitBlue K theory? (doesn’t really matter now)I'm conflicted here it's a good sendoff to Clark. Part of his narrative in the show was that he wanted to me normal at times. I think I built it up too much in my mind. But tbh I'm a bit salty we still never got Welling in the suitCG on the Super fight was a bit rough but TV budget so okayWhat’s up with Lyla? Is this going to be explained in the comic tie-in?Sidequest the episode. Big stakes from part 1 aren’t really in play hereMichelle Tom Welling not in Superman suitLazarus Pit, really? The multiverse is ending; Barry spends a lot of time on side missionHarbinger’s going to Anti-Monitor really not explainedRosesSP - “Yea.

This is the series they should be pursuing. He is from Superman Returns via reference to his son JasonKara eyes up Routh Supes gets told he’s her cousin by Superman prime was funRay and Supes trading quips on teh Waverider was funHaving not watched Cryer in Supergirl I don’t know what he was like previously but he nails it as LexKevin Conroy is batman even if its evil batman.they took my batman and put him in live action. Normally I complain about guggenheim and his need to defy expectations of fans. I actually liked it here. To many people Kevin Conroy is the definitive version of batman. One who never kills. To take this version and have him be a broken version similar to Dark Knight Returns Batman was not what I expected. And seeing Conroy pull off broken Batman both physically and mentally was quite the show.Teased me with Batman Beyond when referencing a Gotham from the futureSmallvilleDidn’t expect to get it.Like the nod to Lex as presidentWish there had been moreAlternate earth Mick is still delightful as is his babysittingMichelle Tom Welling!!!! Everyone noticing how buff he isLike the Kara/Constantine/Mia teamupKate and Kara develop relationshipCryer gets to be more Lex Luthor-y than on SupergirlKate has character development w/interaction w/BruceBrandon Routh gets to show the world why he’s a great Superman and deserves to take over from CavillEpisode made me like Superman again For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Two (10 Dec 2019) https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/12/10/crisis-infinite-earths-part-2-easter-eggs/ ARROW NEWS: CW Reveals When Arrow, Flash, Batwoman and More Return From Winter Hiatus (Date: 18 Dec 2019) Both Arrow and DC's Legends of Tomorrow will air on Jan. 14 to close out the Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths".Official premiere dates: Batwoman: Jan. 19, 8 p.m.Supergirl: Jan. 19, 9 p.mBlack Lightning: Jan. 20, 9 p.m.Arrow: Jan. 21, 8 p.m.DC's Legends of Tomorrow: Jan. 21, 9 p.m. The Flash: Feb. 4, 8 p.m. https://www.cbr.com/cw-arrowverse-riverdale-black-lightning-midseason-premiere-dates/ FEEBACK: DISCORD: yakk0dotorg 12/12/2019 Here’s a pretty interesting interview with Brandon Routh on the crossover and his time as Ray and Superman. https://youtu.be/owOvkaOgab0FACEBOOK: ‎‎Anthony McDowell‎ I am sad that the Starling Tribune is about to shut down. Y'alls coverage of the show plus the One-shots and other stuff yuns do is fantastic. Just listened to Purgatory and thought that I would mention that on VUDU you can buy the bundles of Invansion and Crisis On Earth-X. They haven't got Elseworlds bundled yet but hopefully they do, and obviously I hope eventually they get Crisis On Infinite Earths bundled too. Thanks, I appreciate y'all, it's been fun listening to y'alls coverage, and looking forward to these last little bit of episodes. Thanks!REDDIT (via Chris): https://www.reddit.com/r/arrow/comments/e9vu1r/crisis_spoilers_star_city/Posted byu/rleach10017 days ago[Crisis Spoilers] Star CityspoilerStar City 2046 can't be the same Earth featured in Legends of Tomorrow. I know Sara said the Waverider jumped dimensions, but she has to be wrong. In Legends of Tomorrow S1E6, Sara meets future Oliver and he says:"30 years ago, you and Ray hopped on a spaceship, and you never came back."In Crisis Part One, they meet alternate Oliver, and he says:"You're dead. You... you went down with the Gambit."So, Earth-16 is an alternate Earth that's very similar to Star City 2046, but Sara actually died on the Gambit. She never got on the Amazo, joined the League, or came back to Star City. Star City 2046 was a potential future for Earth-1 that was avoided.

The Starling Tribune Reporters SP and Chris review the Arrow finale season seventh episode “Purgatory” with the help of Michelle’s notes. The reporters discuss the final Arrow pre-Crisis episode including the return of Yoa Fei, Billy Wintergreen and Edward Fryers; the effective CGI use in the episode; why SP’s knives are better than Stephen Amell’s knives, speculate on who is going to teach Mia how to slap water, Lyla’s transformation into Harbinger, how a path for Diggle to become the Green Lantern was missed, speculation on how Roy’s arm will be replaced, if we thought we wasted our time with the Flash Forwards, and Oliver’s great final moments with Mia and Williams. The duo also prepare themselves for Crisis by discussing the seven year build up to Crisis, the confusing nature of the pre-crisis cut scene, Chris expands a popular Monitor fan theory, discussing some of Marc Guggenheim last minute pre-crisis news, and what would be change for the better for fans post crisis.

The Starling Tribune Reporters SP, Chris and Michelle review the Arrow finale season fifth episode “Prochnost.” The reporters discuss the strength it takes to show the weaknesses and mistakes you have made to others, the fact that Oliver DID NOT answer all the question his kids had for him, Mia’s tennis ball (and perhaps slapping water) training, the return of Anatoly to the show, the moment of Laurel’s decision, the awesome Mountainous Mustache cage fighter, Diggle’s attempt to help redeem Roy and what is Lyla betraying Team Arrow for?

"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.

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.

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.

At this point, there aren’t any details on how his DC Comics gunslinger will fit into the epic five-hour event, which includes Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman. https://ew.com/tv/2019/09/06/jonah-hex-arrowverses-crisis-on-infinite-earths-crossover/Crisis on Infinite Earths Recruits The Flash's John Wesley Shipp (Date: 10 September 2019)Shipp has a role to play in this year's five-show Arrowverse crossover. However, there's no word yet on which role he will reprise for the event. Throughout his Arrowverse tenure, Shipp has played three separate characters: Henry Allen, Jay Garrick and the Barry Allen of Earth-90. Henry died in Season 2, so it likely won't be this character. In Season 4, Jay announced his plan to train a new Flash for Earth-3, after which he would retire from the superhero life. As such, it's possible for Jay to return with his new trainee in tow.https://www.cbr.com/crisis-on-infinite-earths-john-wesley-shipp/Arrow Favorite Willa Holland to Return and Recur During Final Season (Date: 18 September 2019)The character that Arrow fans most hoped would put in an appearance during the final season — Oliver’s sister, played by former series regular Willa Holland — will indeed be seen again, TVLine has learned. But wait, there’s more: Holland is confirmed to not just guest-star but recur during the CW series’ 10-episode farewell run. https://tvline.com/2019/09/18/arrow-willa-holland-returns-final-season-thea/?fbclid=IwAR2QJpp7uXz2vRsOUdHF_N5taCD1RgObN1ruQNVfYV92BPKnP-ZzIbPunr8Tom Welling To Reprise ‘Smallville’ Clark Kent Role In Arrowverse Crossover On the CW (Date: 19 Sept 2019)And then there were three.

I’m 38 years old, and I got this job when I was 30. I’d never had a job for more than a year.

Plus, as first reported by TVLine, the role of Diggle and Lyla’s grown-up biological son, John Jr., is being cast for the flash-forward storyline, in which he thus far has only been referenced or encountered off-screen.Arrow kicks off its 10-episode final season on Tuesday, Oct. 15 at 9;8c, with the premiere titled “Starling City.” https://tvline.com/2019/07/11/arrow-final-season-8-katherine-mcnamara-series-regular-mia/ GENERAL DC News Legends of Tomorrow: Constantine to Return for Season 5 (Date: 10 July 2019)Ryan is returning as a series regular for the show's fifth season which will debut at midseason. This will surely be good news for Constantine fans as well as will be very helpful for the Legends themselves considering how the Season 4 finale teased at a major new threat coming for not just the team, but the world. https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/07/10/legends-of-tomorrow-matt-ryan-constantine-series-regular-season-/DC's Legends of Tomorrow ups Astra actress to series regular for season 5 (Date: 11 July 2019)Astra Logue will continue to cause trouble for DC’s Legends of Tomorrow in season 5. EW can exclusively reveal that Olivia Swann, who portrays Astra, a.k.a. Constantine’s Achilles heel, has been promoted to series regular for season 5. It’s fair to say this doesn’t mean anything good for the Legends seeing as how last season ended with Astra releasing the souls of Genghis Khan, Charles Manson, and many other historical bad guys back into the world of the living.“A lot of what Constantine is going to be dealing with this is season is his very complicated relationship with her and a desire to save her despite all the pain and trouble she’s putting us through,” producer Keto Shimizu says. https://ew.com/tv/2019/07/11/legends-of-tomorrow-olivia-swann-astra-season-5-big-bad/?fbclid=IwAR1zBlzTX-AvAV542Dkwru8L3t2QDASfBo9kTGVrs34cJIExf2QHrxNTTZs NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: https://comicbook.com/dc/2019/04/08/legends-of-tomorrow-spoilers-season-4-seance-and-sensibility-tra/(Date: 8 April 2019) Episode: “Séance and Sensibility” [Season 4 Episode 11] Air Date: Monday, April 15, 2019 Summary:When Mona discovers that her favorite author, Jane Austen, might be at the epicenter of a magical alert, Mona, Sara, Charlie and Zari find themselves in 1809.

In "Gone Rogue," the latest episode, Nora West-Allen stole blueprints from a company named after her. In the very opening of the episode, Nora headed straight for G. Simone & Associates: Architecture, Planning, Interiors. There, she took the blueprints for McCulloch Technologies off the server, then fried it with her Speed Force lightning.Simone, of course, can be credited with bringing Rag Doll into the spotlight. In her cult classic run on The Secret Six with Dale Eaglesham, Rag Doll was an integral member of the team; the character quickly became a DC fan favorite after her run. Since Rag Doll was featured heavily in "Gone Rogue," it makes sense for Simone to get such a major shout-out.In addition to her work on The Secret Six, Simone is a prolific comic book writer. Her major credits include Birds of Prey, Batgirl, Wonder Woman, Red Sonja, Deadpool, Leaving Megalopolis and Clean Room. She recently wrote Domino for Marvel Comics and now serves as chief architect for Lion Forge's superhero line, which makes her Flash namedrop all the more fitting.https://www.cbr.com/flash-gail-simone-reference/ NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/arrow/arrow-everythings-about-to-explode-in-the-new-promo-for-season-7-episode-21-living-proof-a168064(Date: 29 April 2019) Episode: “Living Proof” [Season 7 Episode 21] Air Date: Monday, May 6, 2019 Summary:Oliver finds himself in a precarious position.
