Eclipsed (2)

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

An ancient lunar crystal called the Black Heart is discovered. Little do the members of the Justice League know, it harbors an evil snake spirit with the ability to possess its bearer. The crystal’s power contaminates almost all of the League, except for the Flash, who manages to prove his mettle and save his friends from the solar eclipse that will destroy both the Sun and the Earth.

Our Take

A decent Flash spotlight that finally lets the team’s resident jokester carry an episode, and the possession premise gives everyone an excuse to act creepy for twenty minutes. The pacing sags in the middle with too much crystal-hunting filler, but the finale lands well. Nothing groundbreaking, though it’s a fun watch for Flash fans who want him taken seriously.
