This comment is hilarious. You've perfectly summed up io9 in one comment. Bricken will star this.

I don't know if I trust this in the hands of Snyder if he gives Bruce Wayne a vest. It's just so out of character for Bruce Wayne to wear a vest and I no longer find his character believable.

i don't think i'm really a big enough fanboi to be allowed to post to this site anymore. after all, i really enjoyed man of steel and didn't get at all upset that two super aliens fighting in a city ended up causing some collateral damage. i also found the anguish that supes felt when he killed zod to be totally…

Bats has never beaten Supes in a canon story. Whenever he does beat the big blue boyscout, A LOT of crap has to happen to Superman first to get him weak enough to the point where Batman can even consider taking the fight close-quarters.

Lots of us enjoyed Roswell. It was a thing that happened.

This might be before Hal learned of the whole Corp and the space stuff (i.e. he's new to the ring, and Batman was only a Gotham legend to that point). Seems to be how I recall the New 52 JL launch.

The thing that bugged me the most was how Batman produced enough force to knock the Parademon (who is probably around…

No, it argues they're best positioned to do so. That doesn't mean they'll choose the right thing, just that they're better equipped to do so than some stranger does.

Rafirmrative!

I really don't expect Batman to appear at all, maybe season 4 if it lasts that long. I always imagined the Green Arrow to be at least 10 years older than Batman, who's like in his mid 30s in most depictions. So not that early. However, watching through season one, I think Merlyn's time in Nanda Parbat has somehow…

I think Arrow is the best "genre" show on television. Hell, it may be the best show on TV, regardless of genre.

I know I'm days late and probably a dollar short with this based on some of the comments I have already read, but I just don't understand how io9 chooses it's writers to review television shows. If I am reading an article about Arrow then I probably really like the show and I don't want to read all about why that…

My understanding is that the contemporary use does stem from Bugs Bunny. He ironically, jeeringly called Elmer Fudd a "little Nimrod" because he was a hunter, in the same sense that you might call a daft student "Einstein" ironically. The meaning/use kind of metasticized as to just be a general purpose insult, as…

The first time I ever encountered the word "dweeb" was on the animated series Galaxy High,back in the 1980s.

It sucks cause I loved her recaps for the first season where the show was ridiculous in finding its legs and then worthy of snark. But now it's executing plots and building character so well that it's worthy of actual analysis and contemplation, but Esther isn't giving it any dignity. The show has earned some respect…

And I'm strictly down to fuque.

I don’t think Arrow really makes a choice between the two women. When the Mad Scientist tells him times up and points the gun at Sarah he yells “no” and jumps in front of the weapon. I think he would have done the exact same thing if the Mad Scientist pointed the weapon at Shado. I just think it was a desperate plea…

Add me to this list. Ollie just threw himself in front of the gun. He didn't choose.

I thought Ollie was throwing himself in front of Ivo to offer his own life instead of Shado or Sarah as well.

This article seems SUPER bias. Those complaints are borderline idiotic. They don't go to a Doctor or hospital because Roy ACTUALLY SAYS an arrow is like a bullet, it'll attract cops and attention. They let Ollie (who is apparently drunk, where was that?) pull the arrow out because, oh i don't know THE FIVE YEARS HE…
