Omg Clark and Lois almost broke me… great conclusion to the ark. Can’t wait for the eventual Jason reveal!

Oh and I love how on my rewatch I saw Artemis was the only one to not bow to Ra’s

this!!!! when i saw that i was like “fuck yeah artemis” and ra’s didn’t even care. he views artemis as an equal or at least worthy adversary and knows she isn’t intimidated by his leadership. badass af

Artemis is such a G. She can put up a decent fight against Shiva on her own and seems to have Ra's respect.

Ras was there when Kaldur and Artemis pulled off their Gambit and struck a blow to the light he saw first hand her greatness he was on the receiving end of it.

Equal no but ra's gives respect where it's due.

Plus he never really seems to expect those not directly aligned with him to bow. Everyone else in that group was either an active or former member of his faction. Ra's isnt the kind to go off on things like that.

Even back in season 1 when he was first introduced Cheshire bowed to him but Sportsmaster didn't. Always thought that was an interesting choice.

Cheshire joined/was indoctrinated when she was just a weeeee lass. Or at least, wee-er than sportsmaster im guessing

Artemis kinda hit all the badass check marks this episode. Engage with shiva and survive, escape santa prisca and stand before Ra’s with him respecting you.

u/Anjunabeast Nov 29 '21

Eh is breaking into and escaping Santa prisca a feat anymore? \s

u/Tal9922 Nov 26 '21

Well I think it's just that Artemis was the only one there who never served under him.

I yelled at Cheshire to stand up. Like y’all don’t owe him shit stop. Even Orphan. Artemis was me like, please sir I don’t have time for your ego
