After I pick up my pull today I'll be a full 4 weeks behind in my reading, but I really hope that all this won't be as confusing as it sounds! CONVERGENCE SPOILERS! http://www.newsarama.com/24643-major-spoilers-dc-s-convergence-concludes-undoes-crisis.html

I was really backed up on Gotham, because I was actively avoiding watching it, but I finally watched the last 3 episodes. What in the fuck are they doing to Barbara? How the hell are they going to get from THAT to the woman Jim marries & has two kids with?

I think this interview in EW gives some perspective on things. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/05/19/flash-season-1-finale-eddie-death-rick-cosnett-spoilers I liked the finale UNTIL the very end. So many cool Easter Eggs in the Speed Force & I geeked out for the helmet as well.

My wife, who has not read the books, turned to me begging to know if Cersei ever gets her comeuppance. I wouldn't tell her, also, with the way that they keep changing things, I don't want to get her hopes up. Also, as horrifying as we both found the Ramsey rape scene, apparently Sophie Turner didn't mind: http://jezebel.com/sophie-turner-loved-filming-sansas-game-of-thrones-wedd-1705193780

The "next episode" teaser totally ruined any sort of suspense whatsoever as far as what happens next. As has the fact that we know from the Flash teasers that Ollie & crew show up to help out against Reverse Flash. I'm also guessing we get Thea in full on Speedy/Arsenal mode either by the finale or early next season. Seriously, get Diggle some kind of armor or costume already. I thought Katana looked great for what it's worth. Also, my wife's continuing commentary on how ridiculous it is for Laurel to be going toe to toe with the League is hilarious.

Shouldn't Killer Croc be much, much larger?

As much as the show rips from Batman this story really isn't like Bruce & Talia. Bruce has never fully given in to Ra's, Talia is straight, and the two are actually in love with each other. Ollie & Nyssa don't like each other at all. Did you not see wonderful look of disgust and oh hell no on Nyssa's face when Ra's made his announcement. I think I let out an audible holy shit when I saw that i n the preview. Its weird too considering I'm not really fond of that outfit at all.

Well, he does have a kid with that girl Moira paid off, right? Well, that didn't bother me as so much as that was sort of like Connor Hawke. And does anyone have any doubts Thea goes full on Speedy now?

Batman 40 was absolutely fantastic...I really cannot wait to see where things go from here. I'm going to a Scott Snyder signing at Midtown after work, bringing this badboy for him to sign: https://instagram.com/p/2FCUd9BQn0/?taken-by=huntingforjoy

I wish they would just concentrate on writing new & interesting Arrow stories instead of rehashing old Batman ones. Anyone who's read Batman comics knows that Arrow's writers are just subbing Ollie for Bruce & Nyssa for Talia. Should we expect Damien Queen to show up next season?

I have no idea where the hell to post this, but Anthony Bourdain called out Bill O'Reilly challenging him to a BJJ match & told him to come see him at Renzo Gracie BJJ anytime he's in NYC. Fantastic.

I know, I for one, would definitely feel cheated if he didn't finish the books. I do enjoy the show & find some of the changes intriguing, however, I still like his version the best.

I hate excuses, but if any were to be made, it would be that the Isles lost Hamonic the second to last game of the season, then lost Visnovsky, followed by de Haan. That's 3 of their regular D-Men down. How do you compensate for that? And yeah, the refs totally swallowed their whistles in Game 7 and pretty much let Ovie do whatever the hell he wanted all series long.

Sad way to end the season, Isles didn't show up in game 7 until the third period & the power play was awful the entire series.

Why can't I get an adaptation of The Long Halloween over two movies or three movies? Seriously, enough with Year One & Knightfall. The Long Halloween would be epic.

Yes. It was obvious they targeted Viz because of his concussion history. Caps got away with murder last night because the officials decided to make it a no DQ match. It's fitting that their all time hero is a scumbag like Dale Hunter. I was at the game when Hunter pulled the Pearl Harbor job on Turgeon. The whole arena went from ecstasy to agony in less than a minute. Totally ruined what was an amazing moment.

Anybody else think Wilson's hit on Visnovsky was dirty as shit?

Sorry, wrong thread

Totally lost my shit watching this!

As long as it's not long term (I believe Snyder has said that the whole thing wraps up in 10 issues, which is a bit long in my opinion), and the why makes sense I'm OK with it, but not thrilled. I guess we find out the big why in 2 weeks in the EndGame finale issue.

I went total homer....drive for 5, one more for Fort NeverLose....YES YES YES...I will most likely be horribly disappointed.
