I would enjoy Katrina more as a character if she were part of the Ichabod & Abbie crime-fighting unit. In the Horseman/Henry household she feels too much like a plot device.
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And a womb.
She asked Abby if there was more reality TV she could watch.
But that's evidence of humour on our parts, not on theirs. She's just so simperingly passive. She was better in the...that house she's in is in the present, right? I admit to skimming K-heavy bits...real world, but I also feel like there's no place for her there, because they're already one heavy.

Here's how you get past the gorgon: A BLOODY MIRROR. Or, your phone with the front camera on, facing her.
Come on....
Oh, hey! The phone is out....
Still, hmmph.

I did figure from the start that a gorgon wasn't going to be a great deal of trouble for the Headless Horseman, what with the whole not having eyes thing he's got going on.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
The Flash: how many Justice Leaguers did Dr. Wells list? I heard Ronnie Raymond (Firestorm), but he kind of doesn't count because we already knew about him, and then Ralph Dibny (HELL yes Elongated Man) and Bea da Costa (Fire). I didn't recognize the rest of the list, but I'm hoping the internet does.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I just caught the names Ralph Dibny and Ronnie. I hope that doesn't mean the Elongated Man is dead in this universe.

I'm holding out hope that since Ronnie will be back (not a spoiler, just clearly obvious since he's Ronnie Raymond, played by Robbie Amell, come on), that might mean the other people listed aren't dead. It would explain Ralph Dibny's stretchiness (within the show's universe, as opposed to the comics).

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
There is a Mr. Stretchy in The Flash's rogue gallery?! Ah well! Why wouldn't there be a stretchy guy? This show man.
I enjoyed that episode hell of a lot. Wells is doing such a terrific job walking that line between "sketchy for the sake of the good" vs. Dr. Evil Pants. And I thought he was here to *change* the future so that The Flash wouldn't vanish? But he's here to conserve that timeline, it sounds like. Huh. The fact that he let out Girder to serve as a distraction was nicely cold-blooded of him. And the Braille Room of Doom gets more interesting by the episode. Did he call it "Gideon" before? (Of course I assume this is of a major significance from comics canon). Hmmm.
And! The Clock King! I thought Felicity incapacitated his ass back in mid season 2 of Arrow. I guess they were just moving him from one prison to another? Curious as to why they'd bring him here and now, unless it was to set up for a bigger future appearance... (Robert Knepper is too big a name to serve as a secondary villain otherwise.) I really dug that it was Iris who eventually took him down, btw. And Eddie hopped on painkiller = adorable.
