Mask Up!

This week The CW released a series of posters depicting the stars of their various Arrowverse shows wearing masks (even though many of them are already wearing masks of another kind), to promote proper pandemic safety.

Good for them! I'm all for anything that'll encourage the rabble to take the disease seriously. I don't mind wearing a mask in public, but I'd rather not have to do it the rest of my life, thanks.

Note the ominous caption at the bottom of each poster that reads, "Coming 2021." That means we'll get no new episodes of any Arrowverse shows the rest of this year! Jesus Christ! Thanks, Covid-19!

Nice to see Barry Allen masking up, though one would think his "speed healing" powers would eliminate his need for one.

And what about Supergirl and Superman? Can Kryptonians catch the coronavirus? If anything, we should be wary of catching some alien bug from them! Go ahead and wear those masks, guys!

Could Black Lightning use his electrical-based powers to fry the virus out of his body? You know, like shining a light up your ass or injecting bleach, much like a certain orange politician once suggested?

Wow, looks like the pandemic's a thing over on Earth-2 as well! Stargirl is from a completely different Earth in another universe!

Oh god, imagine the damage the Legends could do if they didn't wear masks! They have a timeship, and regularly travel to the past! They could spread Covid all throughout history!

Good to see that our Lord and Master Beebo is wise enough to mask up as well!

Not that it matters, but it appears this wasn't a specially commissioned photo shoot. As you can see above, it looks like they took pre-existing promotional images and Photoshopped masks onto them. They did an excellent job though, matching the lighting and angles and such. It's impossible to tell the masks aren't real. Well done!
