Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

DC is going through another not-a-reboot right now. He's probably mixed in there somewhere, but who knows for how long.

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

That left me with 0.5% hope I'll buy DC again.

I just like Batman SO much.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

That article made my head hurt. I'll stick with Lumberjanes and Sex Criminals (an admittedly odd combination).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

What about Saga, Steph? Are you not reading Saga ? WHY ARE YOU NOT READING SAGA.

Also, WTF Convergence.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I took the metaphor to mean the network was slowing down (i.e., only airing the initial 13 and not filming a full season) but not yet canceling it.

Fair enough. I was reading the show as being pretty much stopped by the cut order, which I can see that you're right, they could extend the season.

Elongated man was treated as a joke of a character in the 70's, if I recall. I seem to remember a red outfit and sunglasses.

ETA: or was that plastic man? hmm. Off to Google!

Yep. Plastic man. Whew. No wonder I was surprised when I saw EMan later and he was drawn more seriously.

I was conflating the two.

Hey, at least I wasn't thinking of Mr Fantastic. I stayed within the right universe.

I'm sad yet reassured that almost nothing DC has put out since 2006 makes me regret my boycott.

Batman still exists and gets new canon I know nothing about. That's made me kinda sad for years.

Is no one watching Gotham, or is it not interesting enough to discuss? Or did I ask the wrong questions?
