‘Supergirl’ episode 18 reaction: Could another crossover with ‘Arrow,’ ‘The Flash’ happen?
We’re starting to get a sense of what the precise reaction is to the big appearance of Barry Allen on “Supergirl,” and there is one word to describe it: Glee, and not that one show that Grant Gustin and Melissa Benoist were on. Everyone seems for the most part to be very much pleased with how things turned out here.
So could we have something more soon in the crossover department? While executive producer Greg Berlanti made it clear (per TVLine) that it’s not happening again right away, this is something that he’d be thrilled to include in the future:
“From the day we cast Melissa [Benoist], the notion of her in scenes with Grant [Gustin] – or someday maybe in the best of all worlds with [Arrow star] Stephen [Amell], as well – it’s exciting to think of them on screen together.”
Of course, we know that there are massive logistical issues that make things difficult; heck, they were difficult this time. You’re dealing with two separate networks, as many as four shows if you include “Arrow” and “Legends of Tomorrow,” and “Supergirl” films in a different city than the rest of them. This makes it rather difficult sometimes to sort everything out. Also, the show has a huge challenge given the fact that the world in which National City has Supergirl is a different world than the one where Barry Allen is running around saving people as The Flash. It’s not so easy for someone like Oliver Queen to just run up to her and wave “hello.” There are more challenges getting him to cross paths with her.
Ultimately, we will be excited to see what the writers come up with for the future.

It could be like The Justice League episode The once ant the future thing. Also if it is Gotham we could see the villain go to Gotham for help and Oliver have a flash back why he never went to Gotham because of how dangerous it was. But now a hero he will go to Gotham Help Gordon and become their Green Knight.

If you want Arrow to crossover have a time villain try to steal from arrow. The alarm will go off and the green arrow shoots an arrow at his time travel machine which causes it to explode. It will not explode and arrow tries to save the villain from the blast. Arrow tells his friends to get away when they walk in and the blast causes both of them to travel to another universe. maybe to Gotham or to National city. We can see Barry at the end rescue arrow
