In `` Crisis on Earth - X '', Barry Allen and Iris West 's friends come to Central City for their wedding, only to be interrupted when villains from Earth - X disrupt the proceedings. Development for a crossover of the four series began in December 2016 after the release of the previous crossover, `` Invasion ! ''. The premise and title of the crossover was revealed in September 2017 as production on the episodes began ; elements from the animated web series Freedom Fighters : The Ray would be part of the crossover, including the live - action appearance of The Ray ( Ray Terrill ).

Dark Arrow seizes a temporal gateway from the Freedom Fighters, a device that allows interdimensional travel to other universes. On Earth - 1, Barry Allen and Iris West 's friends, including Kara Danvers and her adoptive sister Alex from Earth - 38, come to Central City for their wedding. Harry Wells, Cisco Ramon, and Caitlin Snow develop a serum to separate the Firestorm matrix from Martin Stein and Jefferson Jackson ; however, Jefferson is reluctant to give up being the superhero Firestorm. Oliver Queen re-proposes to Felicity Smoak, but she is not ready to marry him. The wedding ceremony is interrupted by Earth - X invaders led by Dark Arrow, his Kryptonian wife Overgirl, and Prometheus of their world. After Kara injures Overgirl and Alex and Sara Lance capture Prometheus during the fight, the Nazis retreat. Dark Arrow, who is Oliver 's doppelgänger, and Overgirl, who is Kara 's doppelgänger, unmask themselves as they discuss their next step with the yellow speedster, Eobard Thawne ( Reverse - Flash ), Barry 's nemesis, who was previously presumed dead. In S.T.A.R. Labs, Prometheus of Earth - X, Tommy Merlyn 's doppelgänger, commits suicide by cyanide pill out of loyalty to the Nazi regime after taunting Oliver. Harry reveals that through his exploration of the multiverse, he discovered Earth - X is a dystopian world where World War II was not won by the Allied Forces. Dark Arrow, Overgirl, and Thawne steal an experimental sub-light generator, the Prism, from a research company. Oliver 's team, along with Harry, Caitlin, Cisco, and Mick Rory, are in captivity at S.T.A.R. Labs after the Nazi forces occupy it. Oliver, Barry, Sara, Martin, Jefferson, and Alex are transported to a concentration camp on Earth - X, while Kara is moved to S.T.A.R. Labs. Overgirl is dying from too much solar radiation in her heart, and Dark Arrow plans to use the Prism, powered by S.T.A.R. Labs ' particle accelerator, to create artificial red sunlight that can weaken both Karas ' invulnerability, allowing a heart transplant from Kara to Overgirl. In the concentration camp, the heroes are rescued from execution at the hands of Quentin Lance 's Earth - X counterpart by Ray Terrill and Leo Snart ( Leonard Snart 's Earth - X doppelgänger ). Thawne prepares to operate on both Overgirl and Kara, and Iris and Felicity work to rescue their friends at S.T.A.R. Labs, leading the latter to confront Dark Arrow. General Winn Schott ( Winn Schott 's Earth - X doppelgänger ), the leader of the Freedom Fighters, is determined to strand Dark Arrow and Overgirl on Earth - 1 by destroying their temporal gateway. While posing as Dark Arrow, Oliver discovers that the Nazi 's doomsday device against parallel Earths is a timeship called Wellenreiter, a militarized equivalent of the Legends ' Waverider. Oliver allows the timeship to enter Earth - 1 to avoid jeopardizing his cover, but he is ultimately exposed when he refuses to kill Felicity 's Earth - X doppelgänger, a concentration camp prisoner. The heroes struggle with both the Freedom Fighters ' Red Tornado, deployed by Schott as a failsafe, and the Nazi forces, and the gateway 's portal is opened at the cost of Martin being mortally wounded. The heroes make it back to Earth - 1, and Iris, Felicity, Kara, and the others are rescued by the returned heroes and the Legends crew. Jax is also affected by Martin 's injury, so Martin uses the serum to separate the Firestorm matrix and dies from his wounds. His death spurs Oliver to declare war on Earth - X 's Nazi forces. Jefferson tells Martin 's family of his fate ; they, along with the Legends and Barry 's team, are all devastated by Martin 's death. The Nazis attack Central City, and the heroes counter the assault. Harry, who pilots the Waverider, destroys the Wellenreiter before it can annihilate the world, after the heroes disable its shield. Barry spares Thawne, resuming their feud. During the fight with Kara, Overgirl 's solar radiation goes nuclear and Kara carries her into space, where she explodes. Afterward, Oliver kills Dark Arrow, when he is in shock over his wife 's death. After Martin 's funeral, Kara and Alex return to Earth - 38, Ray returns to Earth - X, and Leo decides to remain on Earth - 1 for a while. John Diggle, an ordained minister, officiate Barry and Oliver 's weddings with Iris and Felicity, respectively.

Production Development Yearly crossover events in the Arrowverse have occurred on The CW since the 2013 -- 14 television season, when Barry Allen was introduced in the eighth episode of Arrow 's second season ahead of the debut of The Flash. The next year, the eighth episodes of the third season of Arrow and the first season of The Flash formed a two - part event known as `` Flash vs. Arrow ''. In January 2015, The CW president Mark Pedowitz stated the intention to have an Arrowverse crossover every season. In the 2015 -- 16 television season, a two - part event between the eighth episodes of the fourth season of Arrow and the second season of The Flash was used to set up the new team - up series Legends of Tomorrow. For the 2016 -- 17 television season, the `` Invasion ! '' crossover included The Flash, Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow, with the event beginning at the end of Supergirl. Planning for the crossover began in December 2016, with Arrow showrunner Wendy Mericle saying, `` We actually sort of do, believe it or not, have a concept for what we want to do for next year 's crossover. It 's crazy. '' By February 2017, planning began to create a true four - way crossover between the series. Because each series was renewed for an additional season a month prior, it allowed the producers to start building the production schedules to accomplish this. Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg said, `` One of the big things we learned from ( '' Heroes Join Forces `` ), which made ( '' Invasion ! `` ) slightly easier, was building in shut - down days, where shows just went dark. The single hardest factor in doing the crossovers is actors ' availability because the shows keep going on. You 're basically juggling four shows ' worth of schedules. '' That May, Pedowitz confirmed there were no plans to incorporate Black Lightning in the crossover, as it was not part of the Arrowverse at that time and was scheduled to debut in the midseason of the 2017 -- 18 television season. In September 2017, it was revealed that the title of the crossover would be `` Crisis on Earth - X '' and that Ray Terrill ( The Ray ) would make his live - action debut in the Arrowverse, ahead of appearing in the animated web series, Freedom Fighters : The Ray, along with other characters and concepts from that series. Russell Tovey also voices the character in Freedom Fighters. Writing In June 2017, executive producer Marc Guggenheim noted it would be hard to top the threat of aliens in `` Invasion ! '', so this crossover aimed to `` increase the emotional stakes and the emotional payoffs ''. The following month, Mericle added that the crossover would be `` very much rooted in the DCU. '' At the Television Critics Association press tour in August 2017, Pedowitz said that the crossover would involve romance, with Berlanti adding, `` our way of making the show bigger this year was to go even more personal, so it 's a big life event for a few different people on the show. There are many life events that happen. '' In September 2017, in a statement revealing the crossover 's title, Guggenheim and Kreisberg said the crossover was conceived `` to be evocative of the annual Justice League / Justice Society crossovers we grew up with and looked forward to as kids. '' The story of the crossover was conceived by Kreisberg and Guggenheim. The teleplay for Supergirl 's episode was written by showrunners Robert Rovner and Jessica Queller, Arrow 's by Mericle and Ben Sokolowski, The Flash 's by showrunner Todd Helbing, and Legends of Tomorrow 's by showrunner Phil Klemmer and Keto Shimizu. Filming Filming of the four episodes began on September 22, 2017. Supergirl 's episode was directed by Larry Teng, Arrow 's by James Bamford, The Flash 's by Dermott Downs, and Legend of Tomorrow 's by Gregory Smith. Music Blake Neely, primary composer of all four series, composed the two - and - a-half - hour score for the crossover in eight days at The Bridge Recording Studio in Glendale, California. On December 10, 2017, Neely revealed that a soundtrack for the crossover was close to being released. Release Broadcast Promotional teaser poster. Art by Phil Jimenez The crossover began with Supergirl and Arrow on November 27, 2017, and concluded on The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow on November 28, all on The CW. Arrow, which normally aired on Thursdays at 9 pm, moved to Monday night at 9 pm for the crossover and did not air an additional episode on November 30. Pedowitz stated that they decided to have the crossover occur over two nights, as opposed to the four nights of `` Invasion ! '', because The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow were already paired together on The CW 's schedule, and `` it would be better and tighter in terms of storytelling to make it like a two - night, four - hour miniseries. We thought this was a tight, concise way of doing it. '' Guggenheim added, `` We 're really approaching this big four - part event as two back - to - back two - hour movies, and I think when you look at it through that lens, it becomes less important for the Supergirl episode to feel like a Supergirl episode and the Arrow episode to feel like an Arrow episode, which was always our approach in the past. '' Marketing Comic artist Phil Jimenez created a custom cover for the event, which invokes the cover design of the Justice League comic issue # 207, the 20th Annual Justice League of America / Justice Society of America crossover. Promotional trailers for the event were released throughout November, before the full trailer was released on November 20.

''. Scott Mendelson for Forbes said `` Crisis on Earth - X '' was `` a better Justice League movie than the actual Justice League movie and in many ways was better or at least equal to the best MCU crossover events. '' Rob Leane of Den of Greek thought the crossover was the `` best crossover yet '', saying, `` It offers fresh ideas alongside heaps of fan service, and the special effects wizards behind the scenes make the limited TV budget feel like that of a massive movie. '' Supergirl Schedeen gave the Supergirl episode an 8.1 out of 10. While he felt the Supergirl episode `` clearly is n't in much of a hurry to get where it 's going '', Schedeen thought it did `` prove to be a very entertaining start to the crossover. '' Ultimately, the episode `` did, however, make the most of this massive pairing of heroes, delivering an endless stream of banter and character drama before transitioning into an epic battle royale. There are certainly worse ways to kick off a crossover. '' Caroline Siede at The A.V. Club awarded the episode a `` B + '' rating. She thought the episode `` is n't a particularly great episode of Supergirl, but then again it is n't really trying to be. And as the first hour of an ambitious four - part Arrowverse movie, it 's hard to ask for anything more. '' Kayti Burt of Collider gave the episode 4 stars out of 5, stating, `` I was wildly impressed with the storytelling ambitious `` Crisis on Earth - X '' has shown so far. There were some narrative missteps, but this is like nothing we have ever seen on - screen before : a true comic book - style crossover event that ties hours of superhero serials together in one epic story. '' Arrow Schedeen gave Arrow episode a 7 out of 10, feeling the episode `` struggled to find that balance between character drama and plot progression, as well as in establishing stakes big enough to support such a massive crossover in the first place. But for all its flaws, at least this episode still included some entertaining moments and a generally strong portrayal of its twisted villains. '' The A.V. Club 's Allison Shoemaker gave the episode a `` B '' rating. She thought it was `` difficult to judge how successful this episode of Arrow is because it 's neither an episode of Arrow nor a complete story, '' but concluded, `` it 's a lot of fun, kind of dumb, and just not as exciting as what came before. Someone has to check those boxes and set up what comes next, and it seems that this time, Arrow drew the `` event '' short straw. '' The Flash Schedeen awarded The Flash 's episode a 9.2 out of 10, noting while part 1 had `` a slow start '' and part 2 gave `` a fairly underwhelming follow - up... the crossover finally seemed to click '' in part 3. Scott Von Doviak at The A.V. Club gave the episode a `` B + '' rating, stating `` Even a lesser installment like this one features the spectacle of the Flash and The Ray battling the Red Tornado, as well as the appealing non-superpowered Nazi - fighting team of Iris and Felicity. For the most part, I 've felt like a kid coming home with a fresh stack of comics, and I can think of no higher praise than that. '' Mike Cecchini of Den of Geek gave it 4 out of 5 stars. He wrote that while `` ' mirror universe Nazis ' do n't make for the most nuanced of villains, and when you 're using concentration camp imagery, well, you 'd better make sure you 're not being exploitative, '' The Flash episode `` completely embraces its lunacy in ways that I do n't even think those first two chapters dreamed of. '' Legends of Tomorrow Schedeen gave the final episode an 8.5 out of 10 rating. The episode `` did n't have quite the urgency it needed during the final showdown between good and evil, '' but `` did make the most of Professor Stein 's heroic sacrifice and its emotional fallout. '' Oliver Sava of The A.V. Club gave the episode an `` A '' rating, stating `` No piece of live - action superhero media has captured the feeling of a comic - book crossover event like Crisis On Earth - X. With a huge cast of characters, a major death, and a final scene taking big heroes in bold new directions, Crisis delivers the thrills, the twists, and the inspiration that should come from a superhero story with this massive scope. '' Jim Dandy from Den of Geek rated the episode 5 out of 5 stars. He wrote, `` This year was an objectively wonderful hour of DC television, but it also moved the season 's story along with Legends in a meaningful way, and provided significant character development for Jax and Sara. It gave Franz Drameh and Victor Garber a chance to stretch their acting wings, and it closed out a timely, wall - to - wall entertaining four hours of television. '' Collider 's Carla Day gave the Legends episode 5 stars out of 5, saying the crossover was `` leaps and bounds better than any of the previous crossovers. '' She went on to say that `` It set the standard high for all future crossovers in the story, character interactions, and fight scenes.
