So I've had some time to take everything in. I thought they did a good job wrapping up most of the storylines while leaving just enough to tease Season 4.

More specific thoughts on the final three episodes:


 * I suspect Cyborg didn't really think much about what his powers could do until he got stabilized by the Mobius Chair and mended fences with his father. When he intercepted Violet's text to Brion, it seemed more like a nuisance to him and he was likely trying to ignore his powers. Once Victor accepted who he was, he worked to understand his powers and what he could do.

Now, of course, we have a loose end going into Season 4 about what role Cyborg and Halo will play.


 * I was surprised by Brion's turn, but it was established early on that there was a part of him who believed he should be king, not Gregor. Also, a part of him that never forgave his uncle for what he did. Tara's reveal of being a mole was enough to set him off, then you have the hint that Zviad did just enough to push Brion over the edge.

And now Markovia is under the Light's influence -- thus another plot point set up for Season 4.


 * I'm surprised nobody has brought up the character arc for Connor Kent. I thought that was handled very well. Nice to see them bring back the genomorphs and remind Connor about who he was, thus convince him to accept being in the public eye. I really liked the journey Connor took this season.


 * I didn't mind how they handled Artemis' arc -- she needed closure and much of that came from how she handled it. And they gave the proper resolution to her relationship with Will Harper (who had his own issues with not having Jade around any longer).


 * And now they're teasing the Legion. That ought to be fun.
