SPOILERS/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #330 - Supergirl 2x14 - Homecoming | Recap & Review\
The DEO gets a tip on a CADMUS weapon transport/super bomb and Supergirl and J’onn head out to intervene. They stop the caravan and find that the cargo is Jeremiah Danvers, who is grateful to be rescued and returned to his home and the DEO. The family is really pumped about this but Mon El questions the timing of their fortune, and alienates most of the crew. He recruits Winn and, after a lot of very offensive investigations and confrontations, eventually convinces everyone that Jeremiah is still working for CADMUS after Jeremiah tries to sabotage the DEO and beats the crap out of J’onn. Alex and Supergirl try to track Lilian, Super-Hank and Cyber-Jeremiah, but Supergirl is forced to save a train full of people, and Alex just can’t bring herself to shoot her pops so the last of the trio escapes. Later, at CADMUS HQ we see Super-Hank finishing a Super-flare-fueled bomb that might have something to do with the National Alien Registry Jeremiah managed to steal. Heartbroken, Alex has a few drinks and talks to Maggie. Also heartbroken, Kara has a quick cuddle with Mon El, which is touching, because she’s been mad at him about not listening but he’s going to now.

SPOILERS/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #326 - Legends of Tomorrow - Camelot/3000 | Recap & Review
Rip makes a quick run to the future to confront and murder Dr Midnite, giving him the 2nd of 4 pieces of the Spear of Destiny. The Legends, who arrive too late to intervene, find the aftermath and a neat piece of mind control tech. Their next stop is Camelot, which it turns out is real. Stargirl has carefully influenced this time period so that it becomes the Camelot of Legend, where she is hiding herself as Merlin and the 3rd spear piece as the sword in the stone. The Legends arrive and quickly befriend the Round Table in general but Rip and Damien show up with a mind-controlled King Arthur and threaten to kill the king if the spear piece isn’t delivered to them. After much debate, Stargirl does eventually hand the piece over to Vixen, seemingly avoiding the need for the Legends to participate in a doomed defense of Camelot. But Ray is just too inspired to help himself and refuses to leave the kingdom behind. Eventually, the rest of the team decides they have to help Ray and Camelot as well. After Jax discovers the way to use the mind control tech they found earlier, Rory focuses his years of personal torment into the device, which destroys the tech keeping Rip’s army subservient to him. Arthur seemingly slays Rip on the battlefield and Damien leaves him for dead. Sara, however, saves him, which may be a bad idea because Gideon still responds to Captain Rip, even if he’s evil.

Harry has been captured by Grodd on Earth 2 so Barry, Cisco, Caitlin and Julian set off to rescue him. Barry demands Jesse Quick stay behind to help Wally protect Earth 1. There’s initially some tension there between her and Wally, but in the end they work it out and Jesse realizes, with HR’s help, that she’s prepared to stay on Earth 1 with Wally. On Earth 2, the gang immediately gets kidnapped, and it appears Grodd needed Barry to defeat Solovar for him in a gladiator-style battle. Barry does, but refuses to kill Solovar, because humans are peaceful. Grodd, who had promised the gang refuge, betrays them and promises instead to kill them to make a point. With few options left, Caitlin freezes Barry just enough to make him appear dead so that Grodd will lose track of his dampening and pull him out of the cage. Barry promptly warms up and saves everyone, including Harry. They make a run for it, and vibe back to Earth 1. But lo, the forward-thinking Grodd had a back-up plan, as it appears Gypsy is under his thumb and ready to open the doorway for a Gorilla invasion of Central City, fulfilling yet another prophecy.

SPOILERS/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #324 - Supergirl 2x13 - Mr. & Mrs. Mxyzptlk | Recap & Review
Mr Mxyzptlk is out to get him a Supergirl. He comes bearing promises of showing her the world, but she’s not into it. Mon El, who has seen 5th dimensional beings before, is feeling a little more hostile about this intrusion. Supergirl swears that she can take care of the little imp, but Mon El steals some 5th dimensional tech to challenge Mxy on his own. He fails, and Kara swears that she and Mon El are fundamentally wrong for each other. She also agrees to marry Mxy, but only if it’s done at the Fortress of Solitude. When Mxy arrives she explains that she will never marry him, and has set off a bomb that will destroy them both. He pleads that the world needs Supergirl, and she reluctantly agrees to let him disarm the bomb, which is a ploy to get him to spell his name backwards which banishes him back to the 5th dimension. Elsewhere, Winn has found a feisty woman from Starhaven to take a chance with, and Maggie overcomes her Valentine’s trauma to make a special moment for Alex. Finally, a humble Mon El admits he was wrong, and Kara admits she was lying about whether they could be together. Then they appear to get very together.

SPOILERS/NSFW - DC on SCREEN #321 - Arrow 5x13 - Spectre of the Gun | Recap & Review
This week we take a look at Rene to see what created the Wild Dog we’ve come to know. There’s also a lot of talk about gun laws. But here’s what actually happened. In the present, Oliver is faced with a gun rights dilemma as a madman infiltrates city hall, killing several people and injuring many others. It comes to bear that his rage is over a gun registry bill that didn’t get passed, and the fact that his family was needlessly gunned down shortly after the bill died. In the wake of the city hall incident, Mayor Queen has to spend his time tracking down this domestic terrorist while also talking with opposition City Council members about how to draft a bill that will satisfy both sides of this debate. Team Arrow does track down the terrorist, but it’s Mayor Queen who talks him down and submits him to custody. With the help of Rene, who has been appointed Assistant Deputy Mayor to Lance, Oliver works up a bill that apparently protects everyone’s rights & opinions. In the flashbacks we learn that Rene once had a wife and a young daughter, but the wife was a recovering addict who got in a little deep. After returning with his daughter from a hockey game, Rene finds his wife held at gunpoint over a few hundred dollars of IOU drug money. Rene tries to get to the box with his gun in it, and does, but the dying drug dealer kills his wife with an incidental blow. Having been dishonorably discharged, Rene isn’t allowed a firearm and in the aftermath of the event his child is taken from him. He pleads with Child Protective Services, but to no avail. In the present, having learned of the situation, Curtis swears to help him get his daughter back. Meanwhile, Felicity is still using her illegally acquired database and Diggle talks Dinah into getting a real apartment and putting some roots down.
