Between the pit (surely it’s not all gone), and Flash E2 (Where we know she will be guest starring as Black Siren), and other comic book-y handwave-y things, they could bring “her” “back” any time they wanted. Kind of makes any death on these shows have little emotional impact.
Honestly I haven’t really cared for this portrayal of Black Canary and it always felt like they shoehorned her into the vigilante role in a very forced/blah way.
So if the character stays dead, or comes back, I’m OK with it, so long as it has some lasting effect and isn’t cheaply undone.
Or worse, they’ve set up a faked death of some sort. I guess we’ll see.
I’m betting on that one.
Also, given what Ollie knows about the idol (and its requiring death to activate, which makes them using it unlikely), I would have expected a bit more effort to scatter the pieces.
Ditto about the pieces. I also expected some false/fake piece.
I had considered that, but it sure didn’t feel like that is what was happening. Usually there are some tell-tale signs.
