Basically to kill more white characters and introduce more black ones. It can even still be disproportionate (I don't like feeling like the PC police), but a little less egregiously so would be nice.

Maybe with the way he's acting around Jessie's husband, he's realizing that he's no longer a "good person" in civilization, even though he's about as decent a person as you'll ever run into in the outside world. In this world, he's willing to do things nobody else is willing to do. This episode in particular really

Yeah, Blue Beetle makes more sense. That's kind of an awkward fix, but I can live with it.

So they're dealing with the Atom's shrinking powers . . . by not giving him shrinking powers? Why is he the Atom, then? He's just TV Iron Man, except creepier. Bah.
Whatever, this was a good episode overall. Oliver picking a flaming arrow up off the ground and sniping a guy with it was particularly awesome.

I mean, Green Arrow was a Batman knockoff from the start, so they're really just being true to the character.

I've always thought the comic is about people, the show is about symbols in the form of people. So yeah, I think everyone is more complex in the comic by default.

Yeah, I'm not sure how I felt about this episode. It kinda felt like killing a character off for the sake of killing a character off. But the more I think about it, the more I feel like it made sense and the way it was executed was brilliant. The juxtaposition of Tyreese succumbing and his friends going to such insane

I don't think that's the point. I mean, it's the mid-season, we all know how this works. They convince you and the characters that compassion and decency have no value by killing all the most innocent characters and other whosiewhatsis. Then in the second half they find reasons to hold onto it because, well, they

I mean, I feel like everyone is significantly more reasonable in the comic. Or at least more reasonable than anyone was in the first season. But yeah, to be honest I'm less moved because TV Tyreese has just never been able to hold a candle to comic Tyreese.

Somehow it feels like a bit of poetic justice that Glenn gets to kill zombies with a bat.

It made sense in Dark Knight Rises, because one side had handguns and the other side had assault rifles, so clearly it made sense for the cops to get close. Bane's guys were shooting at them, but eventually they just got backed into a bottleneck and had to fight hand to hand.
But yeah, here they were just running at

Really? Her outfit is way more conservative. Leathery, yes, but so was Sara's.

That works, but it's never really implied on the show. But I get that it's not really relevant to the story at this point, so they're letting it sit.

By the way, props to Waller for once again demanding the most unnecessarily high body count possible. At least you're consistent in your hilarious disregard for human life, ma'am.
I'm convinced she won't eat a hamburger if she hasn't hit it with an airstrike first.

As long as she stops being a complete ass about everything, I can tolerate her. There were quite a few scenes of hers in the first season that had me shouting at my laptop. I always feel sorry for actresses who have to play utterly insufferable characters like that.
Fuck, Thea. You drove while you were high as fuck and

I gotta say, if she was as bored acting out that material for two years as I was watching it, she has a special kind of endurance I can only dream of.

Oh, right. I always forget she's Asian because her hair makes me think she's Lady Gaga. Well, that's one.

I mean, she's got pretty stiff competition in Capt. Lance being able to look the Arrow straight in the face and not figure out who it is.

You'd think after 2 seasons of her flipping her shit about literally everything, they would adopt a strict "no more bullshitting to Thea for the sake of mankind" rule. But since she still doesn't know who Ollie is, she's pretty set for the nervous breakdown of villainy.

I mean, the thing about domino masks is how abundantly obvious it is that they don't hide enough of somebody's face to make it at all plausible that nobody could figure out their identity. It's just one of the many, many conceits of comic books, I suppose.
Not unlike how insanely easy it is to come back from the dead.
