Four Good things about the Invasion! crossover
- Supergirl in Arrowverse brings a lot of joy to everything: Also. Mick’s reactions to Supergirl were pretty funny.
- Three fantastic action sequences: The fight under mind control, Arrow team vs all the past Arrow Villains, All Heroes Versus all Dai Dominators were all fantastic.
- Arrow 100th Episode: This episode and the end of the crossover, gave a fantastic tribute to all that the show has done.
- Everytime Diggle gets awkward brings joy to our hearts. It’s not a crossover unless John Diggle gets awkward.
Four Not so Good things about the crossover
- How quickly Cisco was up to time traveling when he has been mad at Barry for that very reason. We know he’s a geek, but come on.
- Forced conflicts with Supergirl: Mad Dog made more sense, but Oliver’s seemed out of character
- Slade’s absence from the Arrow episode feels like there’s a gap when he’s missing from the lineup: He could have at least given a voice over.
- Citizen Steel’s outfit: It’s just not very good outside of the CGI effect. It could have been better, but it could have been worse.
