Elongated Man? Slow pacing 1-3 4-5 almost different shows Ollie died Nash Wells- redeemable? o Chris Pacing was off it seemed we crawled for 1-3 then 4-5 flew. Wish we could have had more characters in the final fight No reverse flash? Since season 1 of flash it's been implied reverse flash plays a role and he doesn’t appear Not sure what this merging means for history. All of the folks we know have their memories restored but to a common person on Earth Prime do they remember the hood basically murdering people (kinda tarnishes Ollie) o Michelle Did J’onn visit Lyla? Does she remember being Harbinger? WHERE IS WALLY????????????????? Where is Cisco and the others? Article cited at bottom states, “Maybe one day we will tell that story,” Guggenheim hedges, “but again, all of those actors need to be paid, and they need to be paid a crossover rate that is above and beyond their episodic rate. That forces us to make hard financial choices that unfortunately occasionally drive the creative choices.” • Roses o SP - Never been done before over this many shows and this many episodes o Chris Combining earths opens some cool opportunities. Justice League formation is awesome. BEEBO! Everyone loves Beebo Sara gets heavily featured and proven that as Captain she’s already a leader of people. Makes sense she would lead the group. Also continuous with a trend in DC where normal humans play a fundamental role in a team Routh as Supes one more time. I literally cheered when i saw him in suit on screen again. o Michelle OMG they combined all the current CW DC shows (Stargirl on her own Earth) Sara in charge; given great moments: leading fight w/Beebo, heart-to-heart w/Barry; coordinating fight w/Anti-Monitor and shadow demons; speech to Anti-Monitor - For Oliver! Surprise Flash cameo Black Lightning part of Justice League. Also - Justice League! Hall of Heroes! Kara happy Kate on same Earth during fight w/Beebo Baby Sara! Justice for Brandon Routh - amazing shot as Superman • Point of discussion - will you watch the other shows? • For reference: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Easter Eggs and References in Part Three (14 Jan 2020) https://comicbook.com/dc/2020/01/14/crisis-on-infinite-earths-spoilers-part-4-5-easter-eggs/#21 • 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' Burning Qs Answered!

Part 1: The Plot, Themes and Characters
What was the overall theme? What was the link to the episode’s name?
Part 3 of crossover
Crisis across the multiverse
Fight scenes and stunts
N/A
Time Travel / Crisis / Cameos
Earth-203 New Gotham - Huntress (Birds of Prey TV show)
Plan to rescue as many from other Earths and bring them to Earth 1
Oliver Queen / Green Arrow - Earth 1
Trip to Purgatory; Constantine needs help to get into Purgatory, goes to Earth-666 and gets Lucifer to help (repayment for Maze); picture fades, trapped in Purgatory
Constating, Diggle, and Mia go to Purgatory - Lian Yu for Oliver
Oliver attacks; Diggle gets him back
Jim Corrigan - Constatine knows him too; Corrigan - your destiny is to save everyone, you must become the Spectre
Team Arrow
Diggle pissed about not being told about Oliver
Supergirl - Earth 38
Determined to use book to bring back her Earth
Team Supergirl
J’onn J’onzz - Hero Paragon
Superman - 38 (Hoechlin)
N/A
Superman - 96 (Routh)
Couldn’t save people; black - even in the darkest time, hope brings us out
Batwoman - Earth 1
Gets Lex to talk about the book, giving Lex the opportunity to rip out a page
Confronts Kara about using the book; we’re doomed if something happens to you
Gives Kara Bruce’s kryptonite thing; Kara tells her to keep it
Barry Allen / Flash - Earth 1
Go to source of anti-matter wave - in Central City - with Killer Frost and Vibe
Nash is Pariah - witness tragedy
Earth-90 Flash on treadmill
Convinces Black Lightning to help
Flashtime conversation w/Flash 90 - time for Flash to vanish in Crisis
Go reverse on treadmill
Parting moments w/Cisco and Caitlin
Earth 90 Barry takes Barry’s speed force; keep riding the lightning, son
Bonding moment w/Black Lightning; lessons from fathers
Team Flash
Cisco helps Ray w/detector
Killer Frost and Elongated Man
Paragon of Love
Cisco - Vibe again “thanks” to Monitor; gets Flash
Iris - Barry’s tells her that her heart will convince Ryan to be a hero; parting moment with Barry
Sara Lance / White Canary
Ray / Atom
Ryan Choi
Paragon of humanity
Recognizes Ray Palmer; working in miniaturization
I’m no hero; if the world’s ending, then I need to be home
Iris talks him into helping them
Team Legends
Monitor
Anti-Monitor wants to replace this universe with his own
Can only attempt to save what remains
Sent Earth-90 Flash away, allowing Anti-Monitor to find him
His world and family died; distracted by work
Only Earth left
You’ll know what to do when the moment arrives, Pariah
Harbinger
Arrives on Waverider; memory fuzzy
Flash and Superman figure out she’s the enemy; is the Anti-Monitor; destroys Earth-1
Anti-Monitor
Flash 90 on treadmill; failsafe - cannon destroy all Earths at once.
Takes over Harbinger
Mobius
Takes Novu’s power; destroys Earth-1
Lex Luthor
Of course he’s going to take a page from the book and make himself a hero
Pariah
Controlled by Anti-Monitor; bears witness
Cisco vibes his memories
Brings Black Lightning, who doesn’t know about multiple Earths and whose Earth is gone
Teleports Flash, Sara, Batwoman, Supergirl, Superman, J’onn J’onzz, and Ryan to the Vanishing Point - outside of time and space; Lex comes out of Superman to rewrite destiny
Black Lightning
Contains energy from canon
Not from Earth-1
Rage against the dying of the light
Thorns:
SP
All three episodes sort of feel like a waste now because everything is gone
Loved the cameos, but some are obscure for Arrowverse fans
Choi
Lucifer
Spectre
Stargate Pioneer
Jon Cryer - what a great Lex - plus the Christopher Reeve connection in Superman IV. Yes, I know we’ve discussed it before but I felt it needed to be mentioned again.
The way the Flash cast just miraculously portals in
Punctuates the separate episodes and not true continuous miniseries event
Black Lightning just a bit more than a cameo
It would have been nice to see Oracle on Earth 203
World’s Finest confrontation ...a bit old with Batman v Superman
Why does Vibe live again when Cisco went through the whole arc of becoming non meta again? - I know,because plot and he was the only one to get through the treadmill force field. But….really?
Chris
Why isn’t Dig the Green Lantern yet?
Spectre reveal kinda came out of nowhere
Michelle
Still upset that we didn’t see Nash become Pariah or Lyla become Harbinger and why she ended up w/Anti-Monitor and as the Anti-Monitor
If Anti-Monitor could destroy all Earths at once, why not do so? (I know, because plot, but still)
Oliver didn’t need to become the Spectre; Corrigan would’ve been great to see
Roses
SP -
All the cameos.
John Wesley Shipp’s 90’s flash gets an ending
Diggle’s issue about not being with Oliver - true to the characters
Routh’s Superman … again.
Chris
John Wesley Shipp is OG flash again! and we get an actual 90s flash flashback
Brandon Routh is still great. Can we give him a Superman show?
Diggle and Oliver’s friendship is shown to be a big deal when he’s the one that pulls him out.
Lex tricks everyone (keep in mind he sees himself as a hero normally). BUt bummed it's Routh Supes that is gone :(
Kara and Kate conversation ends when Kara tells her to keep the kryptonite
Michelle
Lucifer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Tom Ellis and the show. Maze is Mazikeen, loyal servant/friend of Lucifer’s; Constantine helped bring her out of Hell to Earth; there are rules preventing Lucifer from just bringing whoever he wants out of Hell; even Lucifer has to go back to Hell; visit is pre-TV show
Treadmill from comics; a Flash has to die; flashback to Flash TV show (knew this was going to happen, still teared up anyway)
The CW Renews 13 Series Including ‘Batwoman’, ‘Nancy Drew’, ‘The Flash’, ‘Riverdale’ & ‘All American’ (Date: 7 Jan 2020)

We’re going to use a Lazarus Pit to bring Oliver back
Team Flash
Sara Lance / White Canary
Promised crew to no more crossovers
Mia - Nyssa told me everything about you and Lazarus Pits
Ray / Atom
Paragon detector
Team Legends
Earth-74: Snart is this Waverider’s AI - any preference to how you want to die, Harbinger
Rory’s ship; trying to be a writer; Harbinger, we need you - Rory “You had me at beer”
Rory - Good with the baby; reads his self-published novel
Monitor
Need Ray’s lab
Need the 7 paragons - beings of the purest will
Kara - hope
Kate - courage (bat of the future)
Sara - destiny
Superman 96 - truth
Got Book of Destiny by going back in time; knew Luthor was going to steal the book
Book of the Guardians - given to Felicity
Harbinger
Keeping Diggle in the dark
Book making heard headaches
Goes to the Anti-Monitor
Lex Luthor
Has a part to play; destiny unfulfilled
Steals book; mission - kill all Superman
Pariah
Thorns:
SP
Oliver’s death is devastating, but whole planets have been destroyed
Felicity (Chris good point)
Is Lyla Lyla or Harbinger. Diggle at home with JJ?
Yea I liked Leonard on the Earth-74 Waverider, but why not use the ACTUAL Waverider?
The book of destiny - who can use it and who cannot? - Not exactly the same book as last crossover
Epic Superman v Superman fight destruction - they definitely need a glass repair service on Earth-96
If the Monitor knew who the paragons were - why waste time sending them on their journey to Earth-99?
Chris
Where Diggle? He should be here and be a potential voice of reason for not using a Lazarus Pit
Its a sendoff for Smallville but no Welling in suit
Blue K theory? (doesn’t really matter now)
I'm conflicted here it's a good sendoff to Clark. Part of his narrative in the show was that he wanted to me normal at times. I think I built it up too much in my mind. But tbh I'm a bit salty we still never got Welling in the suit
CG on the Super fight was a bit rough but TV budget so okay
What’s up with Lyla? Is this going to be explained in the comic tie-in?
Sidequest the episode. Big stakes from part 1 aren’t really in play here
Michelle
Tom Welling not in Superman suit
Lazarus Pit, really? The multiverse is ending; Barry spends a lot of time on side mission
Harbinger’s going to Anti-Monitor really not explained
Roses
SP -
“Yea. I kind of promised my crew we’d never have to do another crossover”
Jonathan crying and being passed off from person to person until Mick stops him
World’s Finest Teamup to Earth-99. “Bat Of The Future”
Lois has a thing for ALLSupermen
Lex Luther’s “Superfriends” comment to Earth-167 Superman
It was fitting to have Batman in the Batwoman episode
Superman v Superman fight was made better by two actors: Brandon Routh and Tyler Hoechlin
For all the Legends Of Tomorrow side characters to be in Crisis, it was good to see Jonah Hex
End credit symbols are pretty cool
Chris
Leo replaces Gideon
Routh is still a perfect Superman. This is the series they should be pursuing.
He is from Superman Returns via reference to his son Jason
Kara eyes up Routh Supes gets told he’s her cousin by Superman prime was fun
Ray and Supes trading quips on teh Waverider was fun
Having not watched Cryer in Supergirl I don’t know what he was like previously but he nails it as Lex
Kevin Conroy is batman even if its evil batman.
they took my batman and put him in live action. Normally I complain about guggenheim and his need to defy expectations of fans. I actually liked it here. To many people Kevin Conroy is the definitive version of batman. One who never kills. To take this version and have him be a broken version similar to Dark Knight Returns Batman was not what I expected. And seeing Conroy pull off broken Batman both physically and mentally was quite the show.
Teased me with Batman Beyond when referencing a Gotham from the future
Smallville
Didn’t expect to get it.
Like the nod to Lex as president
Wish there had been more
Alternate earth Mick is still delightful as is his babysitting
Michelle
Tom Welling!!!! Everyone noticing how buff he is
Like the Kara/Constantine/Mia teamup
Kate and Kara develop relationship
Cryer gets to be more Lex Luthor-y than on Supergirl
Kate has character development w/interaction w/Bruce
Brandon Routh gets to show the world why he’s a great Superman and deserves to take over from Cavill
Here’s a pretty interesting interview with Brandon Routh on the crossover and his time as Ray and Superman. https://youtu.be/owOvkaOgab0
FACEBOOK: Anthony McDowell
I am sad that the Starling Tribune is about to shut down. Y'alls coverage of the show plus the One-shots and other stuff yuns do is fantastic. Just listened to Purgatory and thought that I would mention that on VUDU you can buy the bundles of Invansion and Crisis On Earth-X. They haven't got Elseworlds bundled yet but hopefully they do, and obviously I hope eventually they get Crisis On Infinite Earths bundled too. Thanks, I appreciate y'all, it's been fun listening to y'alls coverage, and looking forward to these last little bit of episodes. Thanks!
Star City 2046 can't be the same Earth featured in Legends of Tomorrow. I know Sara said the Waverider jumped dimensions, but she has to be wrong. In Legends of Tomorrow S1E6, Sara meets future Oliver and he says:
"30 years ago, you and Ray hopped on a spaceship, and you never came back."
In Crisis Part One, they meet alternate Oliver, and he says:
"You're dead. You... you went down with the Gambit."
So, Earth-16 is an alternate Earth that's very similar to Star City 2046, but Sara actually died on the Gambit. She never got on the Amazo, joined the League, or came back to Star City. Star City 2046 was a potential future for Earth-1 that was avoided.
Episode: “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 3” [Flash: Season 6 Episode 9]
Air Date: Tuesday, December 10, 2019
Summary:Pariah enlists Black Lightning to help stop the Anti-Monitor after Flash-90 Shares what he learned from his battle in 'Elseworlds'. With the help of Black Lightning, Barry, Cisco and Killer Frost come up with a plan that could save them all. Meanwhile, Iris has a heart-to-heart with Ryan Choi while Oliver and Diggle return to an old familiar stomping ground.

Part 1: The Plot, Themes and Characters
What was the overall theme? What was the link to the episode’s name?
Part 1 of crossover
Crisis across the multiverse
Fight scenes and stunts
Supergirl saves Wil Wheaton from Spike
Batwoman takes down members of Alice’s gang
Tower
Atom, Batwoman, Mia, Oliver vs. Shadow Demons
Supers helping w/earthquake stuff
Batwoman allows Ray to upgrade batarang
Supers come back w/Flash
Rooftop fight
Monitor - must retreat
Oliver - I have to fight; shocks Monitor; runs out of arrows; puts up his fists; “dies”
Time Travel / Crisis / Cameos
Monitor VO: Big bang - life; multiverse multiplying like mitosis; Age of Heroes finally born; heroes in time to save multiverse
Earth-89: Gotham - Keaton’s Batman world - Alexander Knox (Robert Whul) reads paper
Earth 9 - San Francisco - DC Universe Titans destroyed
Earth X - The Ray
Earth 66 - Burt Ward walking dog - “Holy crimson skies of death!”
Earth 38 - Supergirl’s world - Wil Wheaton - doomsday sign (Michelle: I did not see this cameo coming)
Earth 16 - 2046
Legends landed in an alternate Earth’s future
Lois, Sara, and Brainiac go
Bunker - Oliver has baby; Oliver and Sara fight; Sara and Old Man Oliver talk
Oliver Queen / Green Arrow - Earth 1
Gives Mia her own Green Arrow suit and bow; there should always be at least one Green Arrow
Upset when Barry says he’s going to die; demands to see the Monitor; Oliver - Kara and Barry are supposed to live; Monitor spared lives to save them last year; this is a new crossover (LOL), a new problem
Saved 1 billion
Barry and Kara - save us
Mia - find your mother and William
Team Arrow
Supergirl - Earth 38
Warns Argo, but too late
Convinces Batwoman others are ok
Has hope; Krypton is a spirit; fight for what’s right
3 billion to Earth 1
Team Supergirl
J’onn - tells team about Monitor and Crisis; has Legion’s ship
Coordinate evacuation to Earth 1
Lana - build portal; awkward convo w/Alex Danvers; I would help even w/o apology; I’m not evil
Superman - 38 (Hoechlin)
Son - Jonathan: Lois, Alura, and Clark puts him in pod to Earth (Brando’s dialogue)
Monitor saves Clark and Lois at the last minute
Superman - (Routh)
Batwoman - Earth 1
Michelle - BW asks about Alice, which is the current storyline; the timeline is off; last year she met Supergirl & co, but her show started at the beginning of her superhero career
Barry Allen / Flash - Earth 1
Team Flash
Sara Lance / White Canary
Never thought I would see parent Oliver
Ray / Atom
Last year at Woodstock - Janis Joplin noticed him and gave her a new song
Team Legends
Monitor
This is not the ending I saw for Oliver
Harbinger
Collects hero; brings them to Earth 38
Explains what’s going on to team; Earth 38 - tipping point
Raises the Quantum Tower - Monitor placed them on key Earths
Have to protect tower from Anti-Monitor
Lex Luthor
Pariah
Don’t see Nash become Pariah (Michelle: Where’s Psycho Pirate?)
Witness to Anti-Monitor’s actions
Everything is doomed
Thorns:
SP
Disconnected episode by episode production
Focused on the show episode’s cast (In this case Supergirl)
Plot progressing too fast (Better on second viewing)
Vast destruction and death not easily comprehensible
Too much, too quick
Jonathan’s single escape wasn’t necessary - why Earth-16?
William not in Crossover and doesn;’t get to experience Oliver dying
Batwoman’s timeline
Where did Mia’s Arrow suit come from?
Supergirl subplots - especially Lena Luther was not necessary
How many billions died because Lena argues about helping?
Ray was vulnerable while giving Batwoman upgrade
Arrow’s death scene - full quiver to no quiver instantly
Where are his knives/blades?
Scene cut short
Arrow dies on Supergirl - not on Arrow.Pretty big deal.
Pariah just appears like Harbinger. No origin story
Chris
Lena sucks
pacing seemed off.
Ollie death to ‘subvert our expectations’ bs
Ollie’s magic quiver
shadow demons looks like dementors
Michelle - don’t see Lyla become Harbinger or her relationship w/Monitor; don’t see Nash become Pariah; wanted tower to become part of plot like in comics; wish crossover treated like 5 hour movie, not upset Oliver died in Part 1, but just because it’s called Supergirl doesn’t mean all the stupid subplots from the show have to be in the crossover (I think we’ve had this complant every crossover)
Roses
SP -
“Age Of Heroes” Multiverse Intro
Worldbuilding - All the Earths, all of DC’s screen coming together
4th Wall broken early and often - didn’t take itself too seriously
Homages to 78 Superman with Jonathan was cool
Chyron’s really helped map out where people were
Supergirl and Superman comforting each other in the face of tremendous loss - DEO Balcony
Avenger’s Age Of Ultron battle around the machine / Harry Potter
Tons of female leads. Lyla/Harbinger, Supergirl, Sara, Alex Danvers, Lena Luther, Batwoman
Chris
Legends team trivia with time goof. hell yeah
Ollie and Sarah friendship is solid and referenced a lot
Happily ever after for Clark/Lois
Ray is a delight (batwoman upgrades and nerding out)
Getting to see Amell play another Ollie is fun
Symmetry for Kal-El and Jonathon
Other Earths (Batman 89 awesome)
Michelle - fixed Legends 2046 plot hole / great Old Man Ollie-Sara moment; Batwoman: interactions w/Ray, trusting Kara, and kicking butt; Amell’s acting is on point; Mia gets suit from Dad
Episode: “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 2” [Batwoman: Season 1 Episode 9]
