Comic News of the week

I want to start off by saying how awesome it was of the people at Disney, Lucasfilms and the director himself, J.J. Abrams, for screening the new Star Wars movie to a fan who was diagnosed with an untreatable cancer and was not sure if he would make it to the time the movie comes out. The Star Wars fan's wife decided to make a campaign which lead to many people including the stars of the movie tweeting #ForceForDaniel. It was incredible seeing so many people come together to get the fans final dying wish granted.

Other awesome thing that happened this week was Matt Ryan guest starring in Arrow. Matt Ryan played as John Constantine, who is also known as Hellblazer, on Constantine on NBC. After it's first season, NBC decided to cancel the show and left many Hellblazer fans disappointed. The abrupt cancellation of the show caught some people's eyes from the CW show, Arrow. After fans and even the actors on the show pushed for Constantine to be a guest on the show, it finally happened. This past week, Arrow's episode involved the Hellblazer and it was probably one of the best episodes ever since season four started. He was as witty and sarcastic as ever. I didn't catch this when I saw the episode but there was a part where Constantine asked for a peacock feather which he used to scratch his back and that scene was to say that NBC. who is known for their peacock colors hence the feather Constantine had, was stabbing Matt Ryan in the back by cancelling the show.
After the episode ended, it left many fans, including me, wanting more. I hope somehow Matt Ryan can become a regular on the show because he definitely brought it together.
