I noticed the eye wiping too, but it felt like a realistic mistake for someone who's that rattled to make when getting distracted

John Candy?

Babs was the original Batgirl, and she did it because she was inspired by Batman.

X-men does that a lot

To be fair though, Laurel will theoretically be highly trained by the time that happens, and already putting herself in danger.

Arm wrestling? Hard to say. Sparring? Most definitely.

One hour - with the body of the person you were mimicking.

They have the right to put their logo up, but that doesn't make it any less monumentally stupid to advertise too much

According to Wikipedia, Grant Morrison has said that Cassandra Cain will appear in the new 52 "somewhere"

I don't disagree with you, but a lot of the teen/soap BS is kind of canon, so I can't really blame them for doing it

Searching your captive for something that small is difficult, especially while your enemy - who is a highly proficient archer - is standing 5 feet away from you.

It's fairly normal for siblings to be at odds with each other, but there are generally reasons. And there REALLY better be reasons for him to be saying things like that "professional courtesy" line.

@avclub-ba11e5f269e8f132321d3ac144289c97:disqus - pretty sure Cybertek's "incentives" are a kidnapped family member (remember, they showed the scene of the head guy reuniting with what was presumably his wife).

I'm not going to re-watch the show, but I think the curtains were only like 3 feet from where he was standing. Which is fine if they only want the cigarette to be capable of cutting rope to help you escape with less chance of harming yourself or something, but then how the heck did it cut through the reinforced door?…

In the 2nd to last episode, it definitely seemed to me that they may have been steering things towards some sort of redemption. And with this last episode, it was just confusing to me. It seemed to be set up with the idea of making him more sympathetic - he was misunderstood by his family, he had to shoot Buddy, he…

I seem to have had the opposite reaction to this show compared to most people.

I'm pretty sure that Mycroft has been acting dumb all this time. The reason is so Sherlock won't suspect that he works for a British intelligence agency

Not necessarily. The writers just have to keep him on another continent for most episodes (and they can also do the "national defense" bit)

Sure. I just used it as a jumping-off point for my more serious reply.
