Miller's Snart is my favorite character on all the DC shows. I wasn't sure if he could sing too, but he's so awesome, I'm not surprised at all to learn he can.

I've never read Countdown because I heard it was a big mess, but I heard about that moment and bought the issue for a friend who is obsessed with Queen. Total badass scene, and a great exit for an underappreciated character.
Also John Barrowman, who will have a similar deal to Miller, in that he will appear on all the shows this season as Merlyn (as part of the Legion of Doom).
Just starting to watch it now, and I think she looks like a teenage Emmy Rossum, while Will's brother looks like a teenage Bill Hader.
Wow, what can't he do?
We live here, and I took my wife to see this live performance, after we both read the graphic novel years ago. It was a packed house, and everyone was extremely emotional — audience and cast alike. My wife bawled like a baby at the end. The songs didn't grab me as much as I had hoped they would, but it was still…
But hopefully "her own Lucy" would be better than Lucy, a truly terrible movie I really would have loved to love.
I don't hate Gambit, but I think it's silly for a thief from humid, hot New Orleans to go around in a bulky pink, blue, and black costume, complete with a "headsock" and an even bulkier trench coat. He'd have a hard time sneaking around, blending in, or staying cool in that thing. But that's Jim Lee for ya.
I must like that character archetype. Back in the early '90s, James Robinson wrote a Grendel Tales miniseries called Four Devils, One Hell, and one of the future Grendels was this Southern gentleman gambler called Calhoun, a charming and genteel chap with a code of honor, but also deadly.
Yes, and Angela Bassett played her in the Green Lantern movie (and Cynthia Addai-Robinson played her on Arrow).
And John Economos, the kindly warden of Belle Reve, who was an Ostrander self-insert character (but handled very well).
In 2014 and 2015, I collected the complete Ostrander SS run, including all the crossovers ("Janus Directive," etc.), one-shots, and related miniseries (including both Deadshot minis), averaging $1 per issue. I've been putting off sending them off to the Herring & Robinson bindery to get bound into four custom…
If the new SS movie is half as much fun as Batman: Assault on Arkham (the animated direct-to-DVD SS movie), I'll be content. It was clear the writers were as big Deadshot fans as I am.
The stand-alone Task Force X episode before that was awesome too, with the Squad infiltrating the Justice League's satellite headquarters. It was written by the late, great Darwyn Cooke and featured Michael Rosenbaum doing his best sardonic Kevin Spacey impression as Deadshot.
What about Kristen Schaal? I've been watching her on 30 Rock recently, and she looks more like the current version of Squirrel Girl than any of them, and she's funny and weird and strangely sexy.
I'd be there.
Yeah, it was the TMNT issue from 1989, where a very young "Jeffrey" Scott Campbell displayed his video game concept art for Lockarm. Five years later, he was drawing Gen13 for Jim Lee's Wildstorm imprint (then housed at Image Comics), and he became one of the biggest artists in the comic industry by the late '90s.
Well, I realize I wrote this post six months ago, and the Arrow writers completely shit the bed regarding Felicity's very temporary paralysis, one of many ways they completely shit the bed on Arrow Season 4.
Agreed. And I remember reading when The Oprah was rumored to play Waller, before they announced Viola Davis.
How about Kether Donohue as the plucky, sexy lounge singer?
