DC's Legends Of Tomorrow Season 1: 6 Ups And 6 Downs From 'The Magnificent Eight

9. Murder Is Fine

DC's Legends of Tomorrow Jonah Hex
The CW

For anybody who’s ever seen an old Western, we all know that the Old West times were often kill or be killed, and that’s something that was certainly noticeable here in The Magnificent Eight.

It may have made for some in-theory cool lines of dialogue as the bad guys were blasted away without a care in the world, but it also didn’t refect particularly well on our team of Legends.

Whilst Leonard Snart and Mick Rory can get away with offing people at a whim – after all, these are two characters who are career criminals – it doesn’t sit particularly well to see Ray Palmer or even Rip Hunter being totally fine with the prospect of just killing off some no-good cowboys from the far past.

Between his main dayjob, his role as the lead panel host of Wales Comic Con, and his gig as a pre-match host for Wrexham AFC games, Andrew has also carried out a hugely varied amount of interviews, from the likes of Robert Englund, Kane Hodder, Adrienne Barbeau, Rob Zombie, Katharine Isabelle, Leigh Whannell, Bruce Campbell, and Tony Todd, to Kevin Smith, Ron Perlman, Elijah Wood, Giancarlo Esposito, Simon Pegg, Charlie Cox, the Russo Brothers, and Brian Blessed, to Kevin Conroy, Paul Dini, Tara Strong, Will Friedle, Burt Ward, Andrea Romano, Frank Miller, and Rob Liefeld, to Bret Hart, Sting, Mick Foley, Ricky Starks, Jamie Hayer, Britt Baker, Eric Bischoff, and William Regal, to Mickey Thomas, Joey Jones, Phil Parkinson, Brian Flynn, Denis Smith, Gary Bennett, Karl Connolly, and Bryan Robson - and that's just the tip of an ever-expanding iceberg.
