Nor did it feel as though time itself hung in the balance. The idea of the Legends facing down an army comprised of Roman centurions, pirates and Viking warriors is pretty nifty, but never did it feel like our heroes were outmatched or in any real danger of failure. The entire conflict this week suffered as a result. It almost makes you pine for the days of Vandal Savage. Between his comically bland appearance and his utter lack of motivation beyond the predictable “I’m an all-powerful bad guy who wants to destroy the universe because reasons,” shtick, Mallus really fell flat this season. Blame the show’s limited budget or a general lack of imagination, but Mallus basically looks like a mid-game boss in a God of War game. Any remaining hope that Mallus would evolve into more than a generic CG villain with a cool voice was dashed last week with the reveal of his true, fleshy form.
