The Flash Zoom-In: Running to Stand Still (2×09)
“To think this city worships you… but when I kill The Flash, they’ll realize… I’m the man who saved Central City,” says Jesse James (AKA The Trickster); a nice callback line to the season two premiere episode titled, The Man Who Saved Central City. The Flash midseason finale is a rogue filled episode, with great… Continue reading The Flash Zoom-In: Running to Stand Still (2×09)
Arrow Zoom-In: Legends of Yesterday (4×08)
Following last night’s The Flash crossover episode, we continue on with 2015’s major Arrow/TheFlash crossover special, titled “Legends of Yesterday”. Both these crossover titles are obviously playing on the name of the next CW DC Universe show Legends of Tomorrow, which will premiere during the midseason break the week before Arrow and The Flash are… Continue reading Arrow Zoom-In: Legends of Yesterday (4×08)
The Flash Re-Nocked: Legends of Today (2×08)
This week we got the Arrow/The Flash crossover, titled “Legends of Today”, that I’m sure many of us have been pining for since the last hero team-up, and let me just say that I don’t feel let down after all the waiting. Unlike the last crossover episode, both Barry and Oliver have changed and grown… Continue reading The Flash Re-Nocked: Legends of Today (2×08)

The Flash Zoom-In: Gorilla Warfare (2×07)
“You’re not father. Father don’t ask. Father Take,” yells Gorilla Grodd (voice, David Sobolov). The Flash, episode seven, Gorilla Warfare, should have been titled, Of Monsters & Fathers, just a thought. After ending the previous episode with the epic Zoom showdown, the writers smartly used Gorilla Grodd as the follow-up villain; a formidable foe, but… Continue reading The Flash Zoom-In: Gorilla Warfare (2×07)
The Flash Zoom-In: Enter Zoom (2×06)
With a lazily thought up title like Enter Zoom, I wasn’t expecting much out of this episode. I was expecting Zoom to finally reveal himself to Barry and we’d see five minutes of yellow and blue lines flying all over the screen. Well, that is pretty much what happened… but it was way cooler than… Continue reading The Flash Zoom-In: Enter Zoom (2×06)
