Welcome back!
Did everyone have a good weekend?
Hope so! Okay, enough of
the pleasantries, let’s get to it!
Like I said last week, today I’m going to talk about the
mid-season finales of the Flash and Arrow. Let’s start with the first of the two that aired…the
Flash! And in case you weren’t
warned at the end of last week’s episode, there will be spoilers, so be warned!
At the end of the mid-season finale of the Flash, there were
a couple of questions answered, but more questions were raised. First of all, a lot of people have been
trying to figure out who exactly Dr. Harrison Wells is, and at the end of the
episode, we learned that apparently Dr. Wells is the Reverse Flash. This still doesn’t answer the question
as to who Dr. Wells is! Okay, so
Dr. Wells is the Reverse Flash, but does he actually have the natural ability
to super speed like Barry Allen has, or does he need the tachyons in order to
power the suit? If he does, then
how was he able to change his voice like Barry does? Is this through some futuristic gizmo? And why was Eddie Thawne left
alive? In the DC universe, Eddie
is ‘Professor Zoom,’ or better known as the ‘Reverse Flash.’ Does this mean that Dr. Wells is a
future version of Eddie that has traveled back in time to change things? If he’s not Eddie, then why didn’t he
kill Iris like he threatened to?
If Dr. Wells isn’t Eddie, then who is he? Like I said, a lot of questions were answered, but more have
been raised…
Next, let’s tackled Arrow! Oliver Queen is dead!
Yeah, okay, I don’t buy this one, either, but as far as we know, he died
at the hands of Ra’s ah Ghul. The
first thing I had a problem with was during the fight, Oliver didn’t fight like
the ‘Arrow,’ he fought like a clumsy oaf.
He looked nothing like the Starling City protector that we’ve been
watching the last two and a half seasons.
That said, how are they going to bring back Oliver? Because, let’s be honest, he’s coming
back! I think that they are going
to be turning to the Lazarus Pit!
My guess is that Maseo Yamashiro is going to find his body, and drag him
to the pit to be healed. Why do I
think that they are going to introduce the Pit in the series? In the episode, Ra’s said that he
hasn’t been challenged in 67 years…67 years? The gut doesn’t look old enough to be out of his 50’s! He also says that he’s killed thousands
since his first kill at the age of eleven. This one is harder to date, but dude…really? Thousands? Need a lifetime or two to do that!
Like I said, I think Maseo Yamashiro finds Oliver’s body,
takes him to the pit and heals him/brings him back to life, because they were
once friends. Oliver is a little
bit crazy when he comes too, and Ra’s takes him into the League of Assassins. Why would he do this when he just
killed him, you ask? Nyssa didn’t
believe Oliver when he told her he killed Sara, so why would Ra’s? Ra’s takes advantage of Oliver in his
messed-up state, and brings him into the league. This probably means that Maseo will die, but what are you
going to do, right? I have know
idea how this will play out afterwards.
Maybe a fight between him and Atom? Maybe Deathstroke?
We know Slade is coming back this season, so maybe we’ll get to see a
rematch?
These are all just guesses, so don’t take anything I say too
seriously, but if you have any thoughts on the matter, you should let me know
so I can share them. Either way,
we only have several more weeks to go until we start to find out. I don’t know if I can contain myself
until then…can you?
