So! The Good the Bad and the Casey Jones.
I've been excited for this since the season began!
You know how the 2003 show basically adapted the comics straight for a lot of it's episodes. Well, this show has it's own very distinct style and thus, it can't actually do that. But it still tried with the first half of this episode. It just felt a little bland and flavorless to me, but then again, the average audience hasn't already seen or read five different origins for Casey Jones multiple times.
The second half of the episode was fantastic though. Loved the subway set-piece and the competition-fight.
This Casey just got rounded out to full Casey Jones including hero delusions and anger issues, however forced the anger issues seemed because they came from an entirely different kind of story. Plus he has my favorite Casey Jones backstory: No tragedy at all, just a guy who saw too many movies. I like this Casey.
