It harkens to Slade or Deadshot. But I'm veering more towards Slade since SA did mention fighting a Wilson this year.

:D Those pesky maroons.

He certainly didn't like him enough not to put him in gen pop when he outed himself as the Arrow, right with the criminals that the Arrow put there. And this is after Lance's own fun time at the circus in the previous season. Are we supposed to know the dead guy from the comic preview?

What's Reign like, good, bad, somewhere in between?

Why are you torturing youself with fics you don't like? Is it hate reading?

It's not necessarily that they fail to plan beyond which actor, it's that they have set out points A and B but not always (hardly ever) an interesting way how to cover that distance.

I laughed as well. His impression is totally I don't want to be here. Other than that, all my observations are on wardrobe. Lyla's coat is bangin' and puts me in mind of spys of yesteryear, that shade of blue really complements Laurel's skin tone, I haven't noticed that Thea's undershirt or whatever is see through (it makes so much sense) and Andy's uniform is very stylized.

Thanks, KirkB. That's a point in The Flash's favor. At least they're not beating on the same drum.

Is there a Diggle-ass-Arrow pop? Roy and Dig also have masks. I honestly think they were great this weekend by all accounts. But that does not equate a real life superhero. Now, if SA dragged someone out of the snow, then we'd be talking. My only issue is the wording of the article which I find eyeroll worthy, not anything done by anyone at the con.

Sort of reminds me of Lance. If he were a professional hitman.

Wow, what a kissass. Don't get me wrong, I think they played the hand that they were dealt the best way possible, but real life superhero is a lame way to praise this.

They misquoted what SA said at the panel. He said sometimes or some, I'm positivie it wasn't 'a lot'. So it could come down to what we've seen in the promo.

I'm not a comic reader so I don't know. That's my gut instinct, yes. At the very least I want something more than Darhk and faceless brainwashed Ghosts. Have the team at least fracture HIVE's leadership so they have to scramble for a while to regroup. I do think they still have time to do it since the season's villain was introduced at this point in the previous seasons. And we've seen some members of the leadership at least. Ok, I'll give them that guy that has been flying under everyone's radar for years now, the one who snarked at DD during Oliver's press conference. He can remain standing to villain another day at the end of the season, but he'd have to deal with the organization being in a frenzy and completely pissed at Darhk. Damien, you pratt. You never could do anything right.

It was, but he also said that "we" left the tip so others were involved in it as well. It goes to everyone's credit that they rewarded the staff for opening the place for them in such bad weather.

Because that fight was actually meaningful for the characters involved. Unlike say her fight against Andy. I want Thea to have nice things, but that meant nothing. It was supposed to be Dig and could even have been Oliver. Dig's biological brother vs the one he chose.

I'm hoping HIVE won't exist past this season. Otherwise I 'll feel cheated. If they just take out Darhk at the end of the day, how much does it accomplish? Somebody else will just take his place given the organisation HIVE is.

I don't put any of the blame for Darhk on Neal. He's truly getting the most out of what he's been given. The problem is that the writing is stalling Darhk. He's there, but he keeps doing the same thing. Even with his attacks getting personal, I don't feel the threat has been upped after the last episode. After 4x09, yes. But not after 4x10. Slade really had much better writing and progression and so far the biggest impact because we were shown all the facets of his and Oliver's relationship over the course of two seasons. That's hard to beat.

If it was, it had to have been in 4x09. Curtis wasn't in 4x10. Even so, I can't say it rings any bells. All he was there for was Felicity's engaged-no engaged babble and then to talk about his wedding, right?

Even knowing that her end is nigh, Moira still takes charge and appoints herself the CEO of their crisis. I just loved that. So how quickly will Slade descend? They had the whole finding out scene in the foyer, the fact that Oliver and Felicity regroup in the office, where Slade might not have been doesn't help much at this point. Unless the idea of time travel is too out there even for him and he's wondering which combination of island herbs they use.

That would be the way I would prefer it to go, but I'm almost dreading him and Lance interacting, because what I think the writers will go for in that case is a snarky comment by Lance, a la Does anybody stay dead. I wasn't crazy about that one either due to Malcom being Sara's killer, but at least Lance is unaware of that. And just why is one among the many questions that will likely never get answered. He says something like that now and I'll be polishing his funeral shoes.

I know he's there for an episode, I'm theorizing on what time period the episode covers, is it 24 hours or more?

Do you think Roy will stay long enough to warrant finding him a place to stay? And if so, will it be at the lair, where Lance - aka the douche who rubbed his 'death' in Thea and Oliver's faces - is presumably staying at now? A sick part of me is already looking forward to Lance and Oliver playing rock paper scissors for the top bunk once Oliver and Felicity break up as is.

A short fan report on HVFF with some photos. They could have picked a better photo for SA's stall. Not gonna lie, he looks a bit douchy in this one.

Also, Stein reminded me of Felicity drugging Oliver. Could be fun if they ran across each other and he was all, Oh, Miss Smoak, how lovely to see you again! With Ray standing right there all, Oh, come on! Tell me you've just been yanking my chain about not remembering me.

So judging by the ending of LoT pilot, supervillains from the Flarrow universe more often than not have the same rhetoric. Tear it down to build it back up. It seems to be Savage's maxim, and it was certainly Malcolm's and now Darhk's. Maybe it was Ra's' as well, but I honestly wouldn't know anymore. The only one who definitely didn't give a shit was Slade. Is it the same on The Flash?
