Can I chain D.D. Crow to Spear Cretin's effect when it is flipped by battle?!
Spear Cretin is flipped by battle in the Damage Step and its effect would resolve.
No. D.D. Crow cannot be activated in the Damage Step, and Spear Cretin selects at resolution.
If Spear Cretin is sent to the Graveyard outside the Damage Step, can I chain D.D. Crow to banish the opponent's target?!
Spear Cretin activates and targets monsters in both Graveyards.
Yes. In Edison, Spear Cretin targets at activation, so you can chain D.D. Crow to remove the opponent's target. Your own target still resolves.
