The Flash

Batwoman (and Kate Kane) in the Elseworlds Crossover

Ok folks, now that all episodes of the Elseworlds Crossover event were shown, this weeks post will be done today instead of posting it on the usual sunday.

Because nobody should be kept waiting to see this material 😉

I do have two videos and one big picture gallery for you. For the first video I combined all Batwoman scenes in one video and I did the same with the Kate Kane scenes in the second video.

My opinions on all of this can be found on the last part of the post.

I recommend that you watch the video with Kate Kane first, for a better understanding…

My opinion on the Crossover:

—> In general:

It was a lot of FUN! Many funny scenes, sooo many Easter Eggs (Batman villains, Smallville, Legends of Tomorrow and more) and a pretty good story with some really good action scenes as well. I think it was a good idea to make this years Crossover a little “smaller” with just 3 episodes from 3 shows. I like it when you don’t have too many characters in it. With the Legends of Tomorrow it was a little too much for my taste.

The idea with the alternative realities is pretty cool. It was very interesting to see some of the cast in other roles. The scene with Kate and Kara was very important to introduce Kate to the Arrowverse and give her some depths before presenting Batwoman. And that brings me to my biggest interest in this years crossover….

—> Batwoman:

It is no big surprise to most of you that I have a “thing” for masked women. 😉

So, the idea of bringing Batwoman into the Crossover this year, fueled my anticipation BIG time. Since months I really was looking forward to see her on the screen. Instead of most heroines and villainesses I saw in the past on TV, comics and the internet, Batwoman has a “real” mask. A mask that actually really covers her secret identity (and a wig for even more cover). She is one of my favorites among Batgirl, Catwoman and Black Scorpion. And the idea to introduce Batwoman in the Crossover and (and hopefully!!!) giving her her own TV show next year…..seems fucking fantastic to me!

As I heard that Ruby Rose would play her, I didn’t really know what to think of it. I had seen only very little of her and decided to watch/re-watch more of her the last months (Triple X 3, Wick 2, Resident Evil: Final Chapter, Meg). And now I am very happy about the fact that she got the role. Of course her part wasn’t very big (around 8 Minutes as Batwoman AND Kate Kane), BUT I really think she will/would do a great job in her own TV-series.

The mask/cowl looks fantastic and her costume is pretty good. The Batwoman symbol looks really good on her. Ok, I would tried something with leather and rubber on the suit (like the Batgirl suit from Batman and Robin or Birds of Prey…but perhaps that would have been too much for some folks 😉 )
And that possible TV-series….would be a DREAM coming true for me. Always wanted a big TV show with a masked heroine in the main role. The only other two I know are “Queen of Swords” and “Black Scorpion” and both had only one season each, which lay back quite some time now.

—> Unmasking action:

Well, for less than 4 minutes of Batwoman, I think we got quite a lot!

Kate walks over to her costume and cowl. Really cool to see her standing before it.

And actually Batwoman got UNMASKED by Supergirl. Ok, the mask didn’t come off physically, BUT the very curious Supergirl uses the X-ray vision to see behind the cowl of Batwoman, finding Kate Kane under it.

But nice as Supergirl is, she easily gives up her own secret identity to Batwoman as well. And both already have a strong bond to each other, so they both know they can trust each other with their secrets.

And the possibilities for more unmasking action with Batwoman in that possible TV-show are…..ENDLESS. 🙂

Ok, enough from me for now.

Batwoman got her well deserved spot!

Batwoman in the Arrowverse – #7 – [“Elseworlds” is only hours away…]

[2nd post for today]

The big day is finally here!!

Well, just a short and last post only some hours before the first part of the Elseworlds crossover in which Batwoman will appear for the first time on TV.

I will make posts with all the scenes with Batwoman next week (after I have seen all 3 parts), but until then a final video with great footage with her:

Batwoman in the Arrowverse – #6

Time for an update on the Elseworlds crossover!

We got this promo picture:

Pretty cool poster! My two favorites are on the right half 😉

—–

I am looking forward to find out how much screen time Batwoman and Kate Kane actually get.

The whole crossover with the 3 parts is around 2 hours long. We know that the heroes will go to Gotham City in the second episode where they meet “both”.

Hard to tell how much Kate and Batwoman will be involved in the third episode. But of course I hope Batwoman will still help them in that last chapter!

–

And….we got a real trailer that shows about one minute of material…that is a step forward 😉

–

With the first seconds of Kate Kane on-screen!

Right now my main question is how Kate Kane and Batwoman are behave towards all those heroes that arrive in Gotham.

Why do they travel to Gotham? How is Kate and Batwoman involved in all of this?? Will they figure out that Kate IS Batwoman???

But these questions will be answered pretty soon!

Only 4 days left (for the ones in the US / 5 days for me)!

Batwoman in the Arrowverse – #3

A quick update on the biggest TV event of the year!

Only 24 days until the first episode of the big Crossover event which will introduce Batwoman!

On the last days we got the first two little teaser-trailers. Very short and without…. Batwoman.

But this is only the start! Soon we will see her in a real trailer…you can count on that! 🙂

Here are these two teaser trailers:

A damaged cowl and masktalk [The Flash and Supergirl]

For today I got 2 rather short scenes, but interesting stuff.

In the first scene Flashs cowl gets damaged. The rubber of his mask gets ripped in some places. I love it when masks gets damaged….and now imagine a woman behind that cowl…. 🙂

Here is the video:

And I have another short scene for you.

James Olsen talks with Supergirl about his plans of unmasking himself (as he is masked vigilante Guardian) and why Supergirl needs to keep her secret identity (that brilliant ….”glasses + different hairstyle”- disguise…. 😉 )

Here is the video:

–

Yeah, how much I wish Supergirl would wear a mask… I like her disguise as Kara. And the fact that she really cares about not being exposed as being Supergirl.

It’s always a little thrill to me that she might be exposed and outed as Supergirl.

Especially that Lena Luthor might find out….she really likes Kara, but has pretty big problems lately with Supergirl…

Let’s see how long Supergirl can protect her secret from Lena. 😉

Black Siren (from Earth X) UNMASKED!

This one is very new from this weeks episode of the Flash! We got an Earth X version from Black Siren 🙂

And like the others from Earth X she does wear a mask too! And one which really hides her identity.

And here is the video:

–

Well…the mask itself is pretty cool (very much like the Overgirl version).

But I really hate the fact that these masks just “dissolve” when you touches it. Iron Man and Spider-Man did have such suits/masks (in Avengers: Infinity War) that do that too…a really alarming trend! Please use “real” mask, you can’t have a great unmasking scene with these “tech-masks”…. 🙁

But it’s great to see Kate’s face appearing behind the mask nonetheless.

Sadly she decides to run around without her mask for the rest of the episode. So no secret identity….

Here is the episode where you can find this scene:

Masked heroines! – [Fan art by BluLive]

The VIP club will be updated on April 2nd, when I’m back. This post was scheduled…

–

And now it’s time to present some really well done masked heroines! You may have noticed in the past that I really like real cowls on a woman.

A sexy rubber cowl that really hides the secret identity….

And this guy has made a lot of great art with such masked heroines! Here are my favorites:

Especially I love the Batgirl with the cowl from Superman VS Batman. The expression on her face as Poison Ivys plants have ripped off her cowl (not just pulled off)… 🙂

A new masked, female speedster [The Flash – 2 scenes]

In the new episode of the Flash we have a new masked, female speedster. And of course, I want to show her to you folks! There are two scenes with her.

In the first, she doesn’t have a costume ready for action, so she just put on a mask and speeds away to save lives.

In the 2nd, she does have a complete costume. 🙂

Preview, Scene 1:

And here comes scene 2 where she already has a complete costume:

Good to see her in action! And she looks pretty good with that mask on.

But of course, I’m not happy that the Flash has a real mask, a cowl that covers his identity pretty well and Iris, just as any other woman on the running CW shows (ok, 99% of the women), only gets a crappy eye mask.

And while the Canary (@ Arrow) for example had an eye mask with face paint around her eyes and a wig …as a solid disguise, Iris only gets an eye mask. I hate this moronic producers-idea: “Let’s give her a mask but don’t hide her face… ”

Yeah, a mask that hides 10% of her face and could be blown off by a tiny breeze….. 🙄  🙁

–

But ok, after all I’m happy for every masked women so… I do like her guest role as The Flash.

But please, dear producers:

How about a real mask for the women on your shows? And some villain that actually wants to know who is behind the mask 😉
