Last night saw the first part in the three-night Arrowverse crossover, titled “Elseworlds,” debut, and it brought the Green Arrow, the Flash and Supergirl (plus, Superman, Lois Lane and Batwoman) together for another exciting multiversal adventure.
The Flash kicked things off with a hilarious body-swap episode in which Barry Allen and Oliver Queen had to come to terms with the fact that they’d swapped identities over night. Fans loved everything about Barry and Oliver – but which is which? – dealing with their Freaky Friday/Quantum Leap situation, and took to Twitter to express their thoughts on the first part of the crossover.
I am LIVING for these Barry-Oliver-Iris scenes

To get some help in working out what had happened to them, the dynamic duo then jump over to Earth-38 – specifically, the Kent farm in Smallville. This turned out to be a real treat for Smallville fans as the location used was the same one from the Superman prequel show, and they even played the iconic theme tune over the top of the scene.
I GOT SO HYPED WHEN THEY PLAYED THE SMALLVILLE THEME SONG ON #theflash

People also instantly loved Elizabeth Tulloch’s Lois Lane, as well as Barry finally getting his revenge on Oliver for when he shot him with an arrow in the first ever Arrow/Flash crossover.
“If you don’t I will Smallville.” I’m hopelessly in love with Lois Lane #TheFlash #Elseworlds

Oliver to Barry: I don't think you can go more than nine hours without some sappy motivational speech.

The highlight of the episode though had to be when the Arrowverse trinity teamed up with Superman to take down the android Amazo that was causing havoc in Central City. It was awesome to see all the heroes combine their powers to defeat the evil robot and felt like a scene pulled straight from a classic comic book or cartoon.
This team up tho!!! #TheFlash #Elseworlds pic.twitter.com/JmOXZKcU53

This has been the closest crossover to an episode of Justice League they have made. Tag teaming versus the enemy was great. #Elseworlds

On the whole, one fan summed up the appeal of the first part of “Elseworlds” best, saying:
This Elseworlds crossover is pure, unadulterated joy so far.

The end of the episode teased that the heroes are headed next to Gotham city, marking the first time the legendary DC location has featured in the Arrowverse. What’s more, Batwoman will be there to greet them, so you’d best make sure to tune in when “Elseworlds” continues with Arrow later tonight on The CW.
