Diggle hauling ass out of that 3rd story window when Cyrus Gold came home had me dying. He was like "fukk this shyt!" and got ghost.

Wasn't expecting to actually see Barry have The Accident in this episode. Thought they were going to save it for his own pilot but I guess his pilot will be him dealing with his new powers.
Anyone notice they had Linda Park as the newscaster for the particle accelerator story? It is little comic book insider stuff like this that makes me love this show.

I also did not expect for Slade to be bossing like he is now. I figured we would see him as a mercenary sent to kill Ollie or something but he is actually running shyt. Blood's face when Slade told him that his mask could be worn by anyone was priceless.

And we got the mask! I liked that Ollie explained he used the grease paint because a mask would fukk with his vision and aim (I would think that hood would cause the same problem though) but still marked out when he put the mask on.

I forgot Laurel was even on the show till they showed her. She looks just as terrible as I remembered. they really need to either strap this chick down and IV some Ensure into her skinny ass or just recast the role. She looks like an alien in the face now and it's distracting.

And when that acid stuff hit Cyrus Gold in the dome and his skinned turned colors all I though was...we gonna get Solomon Grundy before this season is up. Hopefully they have him talking like this:


It is :demonic: that we have to wait till January for more episodes though. Damn you to hell, Christmas!

Anybody catch the asian reporter Linda Park, aka Wally West's wifey?

I feel :blessed: just to be able to watch such piff.

oh, somebody caught it.

Is Barry Allen older than Wally West? I remember they used Wally on the animated series instead but they had 4 flashes on Young Justice.

Barry Allen was the Flash from our time the 50's to 1985. Wally was actually his sidekick for a good bit. Barry originally died in Crisis on Infinite Earths (hell of a sendoff, too) and Wally took the role. DC had this thing where they were literally making Legacy characters for a while. The sidekicks were going to grow in experience and age to eventually take over their mentors' roles or they'd be replaced by younger characters and put out to pasture.

Wally and Green lantern Kyle Rayner were the only two to stick, though. Eventually, the editors at DC that were over 45 got tired of it and decided to bring back Barry Allen and Hal Jordan....

Which is kind of fukked up for my generation of hardcore comic nerds.... because we LITERALLY grew up with Wally West (no one even referred to him as The Flash, he was always "Wally West" to us) and dikk Grayson/Robin/NightWing... who they're trying to kill off right now (and have been for the last 8 years or so), but fan pressure won't let them commit to doing it.
