Just watched The Ray

In honor of National Superhero Day, I decided to check out Freedom Fighters: The Ray. It was quite enjoyable and it helped me get a better idea of some of the lesser known heroes like The Ray, Black Condor, and Phantom Lady. I hope DC uses them again at some point.

Before I watch

I am interested in watching Freedom Fighters: The Ray but before I do, is it connected to any of the other Arrowverse shows before Crisis on Earth-X?

Where can I watch Part 2?

The title says it all, I don't have access to CW Seed since I'm from Portugal, and I can't find Part 2 anywhere online so if someone could help me I would be very grateful.

Thoughts on Part Two: "Earth-X"

  • This show absolutely does not fit into the greater established Arrowverse canon, I've taken to just treating it like any other alternate version created through comic book adaptations
  • I really like the animation, I felt the action was better than previous seasons of other shows
  • I absolutely love Melissa Benoist as Overgirl, she doesn't look anything like Supergirl, but still has a great performance
  • Hearing the voice of Jotaro as Dark Black Arrow is odd
  • When Ray was telling the Freedom Fighters about his much better world, I was expecting someone from the crowd to say "Well, let's just go there!"
  • Unnecessary amount of fade-to-blacks
  • Mari is still Vixen, I guess, but having her hair-due from her appearance on Arrow is neat
  • Nazi Barry is just as stupid as Earth-1 Barry in terms of using his powers effectively
  • Why does Earth-1(?) Barry in this show seem so much slower than he would on TV? It's less like "The Flash" and more like The Whizzer from Jessica Jones Season 2
  • In Crisis, Earth-X Oliver was introduced to us by him brutally beating and then killing Earth-X Guardian, in The Ray, all he does is shoot arrows at knockoff Falcon and miss every single time
  • I like that CW Seed didn't bother making different episodes since it's all one unit anyway
  • The premise of the show on Wikipedia is completely wrong, and the people who monitor the page will not allow it to be changed

So if this is set before Crisis on Earth X how are Green Arrow and The Flash in it?

Are there going to be more episodes?

Was that it for episodes? They only gave us 6 with a cliffhanger and no announcement for more?

Why are there two subtitles? I can’t turn the smaller one off even if I activate and deactivate closed captioning. Why?

It's Friday, no new episodes??

Well it's been a week since we got our first six and I was really looking forward to more today. Was what we got all that we're getting? If so, I'm kind of disapppinted. They did a great job weaving in Vixen and her mini series, but this one was noticeably lacking continuity. Not to mention the voice actors weren't Grant and Amell. So, does anyone know if we are getting any more?

So, Reverse Flash

Do you reckon the latter half of season one or season two will tell us why Reverse Flash is on Earth-X, and how he replaced that universe's Barry Allen?

Also, what about Citizen Cold?

Freedom Fighters: the Ray - S01E01 Discussion

Synopsis: All his life, Ray Terrill (Russell Tovey) has fought injustice, dreaming of making a real difference like his older brother, a Marine who was killed in Afghanistan. One day, he stumbles upon a dying superhero from another Earth and is stunned to find that this superhero looks just like him.


Edit: This post was made assuming CW Seed would release the episodes once per week, so use this for the 6 episodes released.
