This was an actual plot point for a 40s Alan Scott story. For that matter, Hal is renowned for punching people out rather than finishing them with his power.

We can guess which Green Lantern it was… The recognizable mark bit was an Alan Scott plot point once, and he is the GL who lives in Gotham.

I thought it was Achilles Warkiller too

Every announced character so far has been a member

It's actually a long standing reference.

Basically, we got that retcon to justify that, yeah. :)

Yep… and Bruce's cousin.

Another thing: while the Nordic look for Atlantis is deep in our consciousness thanks to Aquaman, it's rare enough in their culture that they left him to die in a reef because he was blonde. :)

I'll note that the reason that Ace Chemical probably went with Wayne Security to begin with was that it's run by Bruce 's cousin on the other side of the family, the Kanes.

Another thing that amused me: the Olympian 's secret identity very much is an Alex….

THIS is what I was expecting this show to be from day one. I was very amused by almost all of it. Worth mentioning that, since the Olympian 's power comes from his costume, the chair test proved nothing.

Very true. Still made for a cute joke when it turned out to be utter idiocy.

Yeah, it's Ryan again… but sadly, only animated for now.

I assumed Prince Evillo was the Green Lantern foe. The fact that there are apparently two horrifies me.

Apparently it's worse now: her ex-husband in the New52 intentionally left her on the hook for his murder when he faked his own death and went off to work for Amanda Waller. Basically, Ollie is somewhere in the MIDDLE of her bad relationship issues, in that, to date, he hasn't tried to kill her, or frame her for a…

Good point. Oliver on that show has clearly screwed up his relationship with Roy, but he still seems to be a functional human being.

I assumed that they were talking about the revival of Constantine on CW Seed, but who knows?

Yes. Very much so. Honestly, though, considering Dinah's other love interests have been Ras Al Ghul, the Viking Prince, the teenage Ray, and an ex-husband who can best be described as a shady drifter, it isn't a surprise. Doctor Mid-Nite (who, comicswise, is essentially all of Ollie's personality traits, only with…

I wouldn't bet the ranch on Lyla. :) Since this is essentially the only personality trait Ollie kept from the comics, I think we can roll with it.

I'm still trying to figure out why they changed Rene's name for the show…
