Justice League: The Nail #2 by Alan Davis, Mark Farmer,Patricia Mulvihill and Patricia Prentice
DC
One of my favorite examples of how powerful the Flash really is. Dude just straight-up aced a robot designed to fight the entire League by himself.
Flash is maybe the most powerful member of the entire league. His powers functionally make him the god of motion.

365 DC Comics Paper Cut-Out SuperHeroes - One Hero, Every Day, All Year…
March 17th - Green Arrow
As the young heir to a wealthy corporate dynasty called Queen Industries, Oliver Queen was a wild socialite. His life changed when he was involved in a shipwreck and became marooned on a tropical island. An accomplished archer, Queen built his own bow and a quiver of arrows and survived on the island for an entire year. The experience changed him and, when he was finally rescued and brought back to civilization, he decided to rededicate himself to using his skills and resources to help others. Along with reallocating a sizable portion of Queen Industries toward charitable causes, Queen took on the guise of Green Arrow, using his near peerless skills as an archer to fight crime as a costumed super hero. As he took on greater and greater threats, Queen developed specialized arrows to aide him (such as smoke bomb arrows, stun arrows, sleeping gas arrows… even an arrow that inflates into an oversized boring glove). After rescuing The Justice League on a mission the hero was asked to join their ranks and he has served as a member of multiple iterations of the team. Green Arrow has frequently partnered with Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) and has also been a member of The Outsiders. He recently married his longtime love, the fellow hero known as Black Canary. The Earth 2 version of Green Arrow served among The All-Squad Squadron and helped to form The Seven Soldiers of Victory. Actor Justin Hartley portrayed the hero in the television series Smallville; whereas Stephen Amell has played the character in the shows Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow and Batwoman. The Green Arrow first appeared in the pages of More Fun Comics #73 (1941)

I AM SO SORRY
Gonna be honest I do like comics Green Arrow. But I hate Arrow’s version.
Arrow needs more boxing glove arrows and less murder
< NODS WISELY
Although he should keep the “five years ago I was stranded on an island” speech, solely because I think it would be funny if that was the speech he gave every time he revealed his secret identity to someone, and all the other superheroes made fun of him for it
Also I love the idea that Ollie is still extremely extra about The Mission and takes what he does seriously but also he’s knocking people about by firing boxing glove arrows and net arrows at them
We get a training montage of Yao Fei teaching him how to launch a boxing glove arrow at someone on the island
How he got boxing gloves to attach to these arrows is never explained
Boxing glove arrows don’t work. I say this with a degree of authority…
In summer camp I really took to archery. And since it was the one activity I got enthusiastic over, the councilors allowed me to tool around with the more advanced equipment… the compound bows, the fishing arrows, et cetera.
And of course I abused the privilege almost immediately with my friends and I attempting to create the various trick arrows that Ollie or Hawkeye would use in the comics.
None of them worked. the boxing glove arrow was meant to be our piece de resistance. We took a kids’ sized boxing glove, filled it with some wool stuffing and dry-wall ceiling calk, and then fixed a fancy fiberglass arrow shaft into the opening so that it was level. Once the calk dried, we figured we had a fully functioning boxing glove arrow and that our fellow campers should be very afraid…
We were wrong.
The regular recurve bows didn’t have enough power to make the boxing glove arrow fly. Yet the compound bow had way too much power. Stupidly, a shot my pal in the rear at maybe fifteen yards. The carbon shaft went right through the calk, the wool and the glove and stabbed the poor kid right in his ass cheek.
He needed a couple of stitches and a tetanus shot. I lost desert privileges for the rest of the summer and wasn’t allowed to go to movie night. And all of us were forbidden from going anywhere near the archery equipment forever.
in short, boxing glove arrows are stupid… …and so are twelve year olds…
Can confirm. I bowhunt, and I learned to Box at a young age. There’s no way to fit a boxing glove inside of a canister that then releases it on impact. There’s no way to shoot an arrow with a boxing glove tip. You’d be better off using something equivalent to a riot load. Like a bean bag gun, but bigger and modded for arrows. And it would still be dumb because the weight would be off and you could achieve the same desired result...
...with a riot gun shooting bean bags.
A non-lethal, ranged ass-whuppin’. Admit it. It’s appealing.
Boxing Glove arrows are idiotic in practical use. As a comics fan, though, they one of my favorite parts of reading Green Arrow. There’s something really satisfying about seeing a mugger getting knock-out punched from 60 yards away.
Also. Doc, I will need to share with you my experiences with a water balloon launcher.

Damnit, I liked it.
It’s 4 hours of straight up Zack Snyder fan service. Literally every scene was filmed and designed with the intent of looking cool. And good god is it ever indulgent.
The movie is ass-achingly long. I watched it in bits and pieces. I sat down and watched it hard for like an hour or two at a time, and then I took a break. It’s four fucking hours. Diana learns to make Tea from Alfred. Seriously.
It’s LONG. It is the most indulgent thing I have ever seen. Every single character was fully explored to the fullest extent and Zack Snyder said everything he could. He also definitely laid groundwork for a sequel. So the Snyder-fans will go nutty for that I’m sure.
And that’s the thing. The fans of his movies are SOOO enthusiastic. The haters are also equally loud (like me!)
But man. He DELIVERED. He paid off all of that fan hope and hype in spades.
His choices and styles are still not my thing. His other movies still suck. But I gotta give him props on this one. It’s great fun. Just really long. Be glad you didn’t have to sit thru it in a theater. Watching at home means you can pause and go pee and stuff. And you WILL feel the urge.
This feels like Zack Snyder poured his heart and soul and his godawful heartache, and his catharsis over his Daughter -Autumn- having taken her own life.
He poured himself into this and it shows. This was a labor of love. This was a movie made by a guy that NEEDED to make exactly this movie, and he succeeded.
Bravo dude. My heart goes out to you and your family. Well done.
