Arrow. Green Arrow tv show.

I just started watching Person of Interest today. It. . . really makes Ollie look bad, in terms of "good guy vigilantes who use deadly force."

Person Of Interest sounds like an interesting series. I'll be sure to ive it a look.

I've seen bits and pieces of Person Of Interest and yeah it's pretty good.

Also..

Ladies and Gentleman I give you the first pic of Huntress:

It's looks ok so far.

Looks like Catwoman with a crossbow.

This Helena uses "Bertinelli" as an assumed name, and her actual name is Helena Wayne. Arrow is playing on a version of Earth-2

Sarah Lance is not dead and she will be the Black Canary when she returns.

That'd be REALLY convoluted. She'd have to wash up on the same island as Ollie, without a life boat, without any food or water, and without Ollie finding her. Or noticing her presence at all over the 5 years he spent on the island, after training extensively in hunting and knowing it's layout.

Maybe she went to a different island. Or she did reunite with Ollie and just hasn't appeared in any of his flash backs yet. They could maybe pull it off in a half-realistic way, but I'm inclined to think she's at the bottom of the sea.

Does anyone else think that Oliver should do the smarmy smartass thing he does whenever talking to the detective more often? You know as a legitimate behavior pattern instead of just as a facade? He's funnier that way and it means he would have an emotion other than grim determination. Also it would help separate him from Batman.

It would separate him from Batman, but it would also essentially make him Spider-Man with a bow.

And a killing streak.

My sister completely forgives him for that, though. When I asked why, she said: "Dem PECS, bro, them pecs."

One pair of leather pants for a Mr Queen?

Well, his costume is leather, right?

Leather and some other cloth material.

Hilarious as that is, its not really appropriate, as Ollie is *supposed* to be the hero of the piece. I don't think a Designated Hero can be a Draco in Leather Pants.

Maybe you could if you Ron the Death Eater him first.

I'd assumed we already did that.

Its not Ron the Death Eater if everything you say is true.

I'm currently watching the show with Det. Lance as the Hero....;)

If there's a straight hero in that story, it's him. The Zenigata.

& I have a friend who does the same thing. It will be a sad day for him when Detective Lance eventually somehow ends up coming to side with Ollie.

So, the latest ep...

So, Deathstroke didn't get to do much here, no lines even. But I guess that's what you get when you hire a stunt actor to play a character. Anyway, I guess we'll be seeing him again soon, since somebody has to put an arrow through his eye socket. And, I hope they do cast a real actor for him soon, because Slade's one of the more intelligent and charismatic villains of the DCU, and it'd be a shame if he just runs around in silence the whole time.

Anyway, the rest of the episode was very enjoyable. Well-paced and interesting, and Amell's acting continues to improve ever so slightly with each episode. This show isn't really having a problem finding it's footing.

Next week Royal Flush Gang :)

How small is Green Arrow's rouges gallery if they have to bring in Batman, Teen Titans, and JLA villains for him to fight? I would have thought he would have a fairly healthy staple of villains as most long running street level heroes do.

Well they are bringing in Green Arrow villain Count Vertigo for the finale.

Of other interesting news Ben Browder is appearing in Ep 11 as an associate of Diggle's.

Oddly enough, not really. He's got Merlyn, Constantin Drakon, Shado, Count Vertigo, and China White, and some of those people were one-shots, IIRC. Also, I don't think Count Vertigo has actually acted as a Green Arrow villain in a long time.

Basically, "iconic" as he might be, Green Arrow is something of a second rate hero, with a second rate rogues gallery. Given that DC is pretty bad about their villain selection outside of, say, three heroes. . .

Although only one of those three has more than one memorable enemy.
