Hero Blend #61: The Past And Future Of Arrow, Flash, Gotham And S.H.I.E.L.D.

This was a big year for the comic book genre on television. While Constantine unfortunately sizzled, series like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Arrow further developed their fan-favorite characters, and both Flash and Gotham gave audiences something new and different for audiences to watch each week. Now, however, the respective seasons of each show have come to an end, and it’s time to both look back at what they delivered and what we can expect in the future.

In this week’s episode, we’re not only looking back at the now-completed fall-to-spring run for each show, but also taking a close look at the events of each finale, and figuring out how they will affect the episodes that will start airing later this year. Can Jim and Barbara’s relationship be saved? What exactly happened to Jemma? Is Oliver Queen really done? Will Barry be able to stop the growing singularity? We talk about all these questions and a lot more.

Joining me for this in-depth discussion is my good friend Silas Lesnick from ComingSoon.net/SuperHeroHype/Most Craved. Enjoy the show!
