As much as I love their Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.


And their Impulse/Bart Allen
And their Arthur Curry/Aquaman

Their Black Canary/Dinah Lance sucks. So did their Victor Stone/Cyborg

I actually like Smallville's take on Black Canary. It's better than Arrow's atrocious take. The only thing i can recall being cringe inducing here is that horrible flip when she's introduced lol, other than that she's fine. The canary cry was 1000x better as well on SV.

Cyborg's bland here but i think he would have benefitted with another episode. His actor actually committed suicide a few years back.

Impulse on SV is overrated imo. Never really cared for him or Kyle Gallner as ths character.

Aquaman was fine, if underused. again i wish he had gotten another episode throughout the run. Have you seen Blue Mountain State? Alan Ritchson is one of the leads and is the complete opposite of AC. Absolutely hilarious if you're into crude humor.

Love Justin Hartley's take as Oliver Queen. He's still the best to me.

I actually like all these SV characters, including Cyborg and Black Canary. I'd say SV's Oliver and Arrow's Oliver are pretty equal to me.

I wish Victor Stone had been on the show more often. Lee Thompson Young was one of my favorite actors (rest in peace) and i think it would have been great for his career to be a mainstay on there longer.

Impulse was great. Great actor.

Aquaman looked the part. Not so great actor.

Yeah, they missed the boat on Black Canary.
