Ruminations on TV Shows, Comics, And Music
The CW DC Superhero Universe is like our universe, finite, but constantly expanding. Last season we added Gotham to the mix of shows, and we saw an alternate universe Barry Allen (aka the 1990s TV show) enter the canon. This season brings us the show Constantine, and brings us yet another speedster from yet another universe, Jay Garrick. There are time jumps in every show between last season and this one. Sometimes, this is my editorial decision cutting out some of the less interesting parts of continuity but, in the case of The Flash, it's just what happened in the series. The focus of this season is the adventures of John Constantine. After this season, he'll disappear for a long time, as his solo show only had a one season run. But the series was a solid adaptation of the comic series, and he will eventually play a role in the larger DC universe. This season also puts together the B-Team cast from Arrow and Flash and elevates them to easily the most fun part of this continuity, a team of time traveling heroes called The Legends of Tomorrow.
