Easily my favorite episode! Cheshire and Sportsmaster teaming up to fight the bad guys is good enough, but to see just how hard they go gets me giddy. Also I like how it really is ambiguous whether or not Sportsmaster is only doing it for his rep or not. It would have been easy to go the humanizing route with him and make it clear he cares for his daughters after all like basically every other story out there but no honestly he really just might be a petty asshole who helps his kid because its convenient. Meanwhile Manta continues to be the best father lol
The blue beetle is very good this season. So much depends on him and part of the plot rests only on him. And yes, he can be given an Oscar for such a performance) I really love Jaime as a character and I am glad that this season he is almost the main character. Yes, yes, this is a team, but it is on him that almost half of the season rests. Also, the branch with Miss Martian and Aqualed pleased me. The battle scenes are executed at a decent level, and also all the multi-passageways between the families look very interesting. I hope you will continue to enjoy this project)
Well, he IS a bad father. But you have to admit, by the standards of most of the villains in this show he's surprisingly far up there. Not trying to micromanage his daughters, respecting their decisions, gave them the training to be independent, at least small traces of acknowledgment and respect... Again, it's a pretty low bar. And some of them are hard to call, very dependent on how you look at some stuff (I mean, just how do you weigh Raz's decisions and way of raising Talia?) But compared to most of the self-delusional villanous a*****s we see in this show, he's actually in the upper half. Just look at Lex Luthor and Superboy. And if you're few episodes ahead (spoiler warning for new viewers) you already know the deeply toxic side underlying Black Manta's relationship with his son.

This is a special episode, the Artemis episodes are dramatic ash my 8yo was eating it up

Nightwing is a top tier detective this episode and I love it
Let's say he tried, but in the end he didn't find out anything until it was too late
Thank you for reacting to this show!

Do you realize he killed his own men? He sacrificed them to save his son.

Great reaction. Somehow, episodes 17 and 18 aren't on Patreon.
They are on there now
@jodeci9898 THANKS! I'm REALLY enjoying your reactions and can't wait to see the season finale which will shock you!
Those two episodes didn't load or something.
