5 Open Questions In The CW / DC Universe
One of my focuses here at BC is the CW / DC Universe of shows and I realized that there are some questions that have yet to be answered. So while we are building to the 4-series crossover, I thought I'd list out a few of those questions that I am still pondering.
1 – Reincarnation + Time Travel seem like a bad mix. In the first season of Legends of Tomorrow, Hawkman went back in time with the team and died in 1975. If he reincarnates after that, won't that put two Hawkman in the same time stream? Or can there be only one at a time? This seems like a bit of a space-time-mystic conundrum.
2 – This one is a little more straight forward. In the comics, when Lar Gand came to Earth with no memories, he was given the name Mon-El because Superman thought they were related and he landed on a Monday. In the Supergirl series there is no amnesia and he says his name is Mon-El… why does he have the name of the House of El?
3 – Over in Arrow, the team came across Ted Grant, a boxer by day and vigilante Wildcat by night. He was around for a chunk of a season, taught Laurel Lance how to fight and then he got hurt in a big brawl with Brick. He didn't die, but he did go to the hospital. So where is he now and why didn't Oliver go to him when he was recruiting a new team?
4 – At the end of season one, Eddie Thawne sacrificed himself to stop Eobard Thawne. The man melted away in front of everyone. If that erased Eobard, then how is there a Flash? No ancestor, then no Speedster to go back in time to kill Barry Allen's mother and take over as Harrison Wells speeding up the particle accelerator and causing the birth of all the Metas. How did Flashpoint even happen if Eobard is wiped from existence? Who is Barry going back to stop?
5 – And this one has bugged me the most. When Team Flash used to use the particle accelerator as a prison… how would the Metas get food and go to the bathroom? There did appear to be any food slots and there wasn't even a chair in those glass cells, let alone a toilet. No privacy, no change of clothes, and no exercise. That's pretty inhuman treatment is all I'm saying.
