I thought he seemed even more brutal in the second episode, but maybe it just seemed that way because he started out killing people right at the very beginning.

Maybe at the end of the end of the season he'll have a climactic battle with an arch-villain, and during the fracas the "ling" will get knocked off of the Starling City sign (which I have no reason to believe exists, but it should just so this can happen), and the city will be so grateful to Arrow for saving its ass…

Well, he's killing those low-level dudes because they're armed and presumably trained to kill, and can kill him.  The business dudes are not only much less of a threat, especially once their henchmen are taken out, but dead they can't do what he wants them to do.  He's also less likely to take serious heat for killing…

My wife said that maybe she was into him because she obviously likes the dangerous type and was picking up on his "serial killer vibe."  So, with that and the "lizard brain" thing, apparently in the Dexter universe there is such a thing as "serial killer-dar."

I actually chuckled when he finally seemed to say, "Oh, fuck this," and snapped the guy's neck. I was wondering how long he could hold out before finally killing the guy. I would imagine that was the most important thing, that the guy couldn't talk, but I guess we'll see if there's ant fallout from it next week.

One of my favorite parts is where he does the exaggerated Jack Palance impression when he's talking to Bob. "Remember, Bob (breathes heavily), hyouuu (breathes heavily) are my number one (breathes heavily) ghuyyyy!"

I'm sure I know way less about them than you do, but it sounds like they just were drawn to the power of the iconography, much like Ron Asheton of The Stooges with his swastika jacket or the jokey Nazi imagery of the Ramones and Dictators both of whom had Jewish members (I think the Dictators were pretty much all or…

I half expected "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" to cue up when Mike was sitting there by the river holding his bleeding gut and quietly waiting to die like Slim Pickens in Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid. It was just as poignant without it, and I actually would've been pissed if they had used it.
