All that considered, I have to say I enjoyed the pacing of this episode, though I didn't quite experience an "Oh no they didn't moment." Go to Full Review Alasdair Wilkins AV Club 07/20/2018
B-
As a capstone for what has generally been a very promising run of television, "Year's End" is a missed opportunity. Go to Full Review Sam Woolf We Got This Covered 07/27/2018
The mechanics of the plot still aren't airtight, and many of the characters are still too loosely written...but when they're a part of a ride this brainlessly enjoyable, it's hard to take too much offense. Go to Full Review Leigh Raines TV Fanatic 07/26/2018
4/5
There was somebody out there who was not happy with The Hood and set out to make his holiday a little less merry. Go to Full Review Nick Setchfield SFX Magazine 07/26/2018
3/5
The way that the action reignites with a sudden hostage crisis feels clumsy, though a strikingly vicious duel between the two archers arrives to redeem the climax. Go to Full Review Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant 07/25/2018
While 'Year's End' didn't seem to pack the kind of punch its various surprises and reveals wanted, it did set the stage for some serious comic book villainy, come next year. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
