    Because the heroes always have to be underdogs opposing authority figures?

    Glad to see that Barry was reminded his training was months long. He's all, "Alexa we've had two 1hr training sessions I don't understand why you aren't ready?" The impatience factor is crazy high.
    So...um, I see Frontier noted this...Psych is just "all in" now. B-I-N-G-O all is ok, lets work together and be friends.

    Joe resigning is overkill. Flash loses a good Police Chief on principal but over on Black Lightning their Police Chief is a bigot whose gone off her rocker.

    When will Vibe tell Team Flash he and his lady are flying the coop? Midseason break?

    Evil Nora is such a yawn I can't decide if the Mirror Monarch was more fun and she was dull herself?

    Someone said Fuerza is a comic character? I don't recall her, my wiki search didn't return anything.

    If I recall, I think she showed up more recently after Flash War when Joshua Williamson (same first name as me, by the way) was still writing The Flash comics. She was also empowered by the Strength Force, which came along with the other Forces that escaped when Barry and Wally breached the Source Wall.

    And if this person takes over as Captain, it's the same damn situation. Just substitute 'family killed by meta' to 'team killed by meta'.

    I don't remember him standing still and letting the bad guys hit him in the comics. He usually knocks them out real quick. But then the comics only has 22 pages to tell a story so they can do that.

    This was posted in another thread/forum.

    Fuerza
    Alexa Rivera


    Alexa Rivera, nicknamed Fuerza by Cisco Ramon, is a resident of Keystone City who is currently serving as a host to the mysterious inter-dimensional force of nature known to Team Flash as the Strength Force.

    Note-
    The Fuerza in the comics is Alexa Antigone (Prime Earth) and a different race(a black latino) and that was changed in the arrowverse and the last name as well.

    My point was that all the speedsters have been taken out by people and/or things slower then them numerous times in the comics that never should have occurred in the first place. This is understandable, of course, because when your powers are so formidable, the stories would end very quickly without these road bumps along the way.

    Who else always cringes whenever the Forces are referred to as children?

    I was cringing when they started calling the Speed Force "Nora."

    It sounds a bit cult-ish when you think about it

    This is something that's gotten to me for a while. This show really wants to lean into themes of family and parenthood . . . without using any actual children. Or even adults who can pass as teenagers.

    First there was introducing Kid Flash as a young man who was already off to college. Then Nora aka XS who appeared as an adult from the future. Now they have these "Forces" as their children even though they're inhabiting the bodies of adults who don't know them. And next season we get Impulse . . . who looks about 25.

    I know that working with children is tough and there are education and child labor laws to consider. But sometimes these themes work best when you can see an appreciable age difference between the characters.
