Not a huge leap to Bruce in fairness. Imagine that they are watching Gotham's ratings with interest

Yeah. What I'm saying, though, is that Batman hasn't been introduced in this universe. So people saying that it's disappointing that he wasn't alluded to by Ra's Al Ghul doesn't really make much sense to me because why would he be? And, if he was going to be, why now? R.A.G. isn't the first of Batman's rogues to be featured in Arrow (or Flash). The point of Ra's's comment about not being challenged in 67 years was to let the audience know that he's old as fcuk and a total badass; not to throw in hints about a character that may not ever exist in this universe.

This is something they really did miss out on. Making the TV shows and movies exist in the same universe, I mean. Rocky though it was at the start, Agents of SHIELD is now an amazing annex to the MCU. If DC had done similar with Arrow, it coulda been a really layered universe.

Renewed for a fourth Season

JP Liz V1 · 12-01-2015 12:16AM

Another spin off show talks

StaticAge11 · 12-01-2015 12:22AM

There is also an animated show called Vixen that will link to both this and the Flash

GottaGetGatt · 14-01-2015 03:48AM

He's made it:D

EoinMcLovin · 22-01-2015 12:12PM

Great episode back with good action and some very emotional scenes from Felicity and Diggle.

Looks like it definitely wasn't the Lazarus pits that revived oliver

Agent Coulson · 22-01-2015 02:11PM

I really like Brandon Routh and would be happy to see him get his own spin off show.

Again way to many flashbacks again for me I know what they are trying to with them but the need to cut back on them or do a full flashback episode and get them out of the way.

Also Laurel has gone from addiction to Superhero in record time.

Way too convenient with the wig, mask and sonic devices just laid out on a table. What she says at the end was waay too cheesy.

RobbingBandit · 22-01-2015 04:44PM

Bit disappointed they didn't drag it out longer

I was convinced Merlyn had revived him using the pit, wonder if being in the ice is what kept him alive, cryogenic like.

Vinnie Jones was great, to think that was the guy that made such a mess of The Juggernaut in X-Men 3. He does good work sometimes, very like Bullet Tooth Tony Character in Snatch.

CastorTroy · 23-01-2015 12:55AM

Vinnie's not doing too bad for himself, appearing in 2 series at the same time with this and Galavant.

Katie's actually looking a bit healthier these days and the costume seems to fit her well from what we've seen. Wouldn't mind seeing her make some mistakes to show she rushed into it, since was just a few weeks ago she got beat up while trying to fight. Though unless she was going to kill them I don't know what her plan was.

So Ollie fought Ra's just in a neighbouring town? Since Merlyn got there and back within the space of time it took Team Arrow to discuss what they were going to do about the bad guys.

That jumped out for me too. I don't know how big the Arrow version of Earth is but given that Ras looks like he hangs out in the middle east I certainly couldn't see myself hopping over and back in a day let alone a few hours. They should have paced that differently.

23-01-2015 10:54AM

Did they not say that they have sites all over the world (in the earlier episodes)?

Yeah I remember Ra'As or Malcolm mention that they had sacred grounds all over the world.

EoinMcLovin · 29-01-2015 12:01PM

Good episode and Laurel was alright, at least they didn't turn her into a complete badass as soon as she put on the costume.

Next week looks like it's going to be great

Ra's looks like he hang out in burger king to be honest, forget the middle east. They should have gotten somebody buffer for the part.

Anybody disappointed with Olivers revival? Seriously. He gets a sword through his torso and then falls off a cliff. And what are we told? "Oh it was cold....so you are cool. Have some penicillin and you will be hunky dory." No lazarus pit. I mean hell, your woman could have crushed up a super rare "lazarus flower" or something.

Maseo just finds him, and then we see him alive at the cabin. It makes so little sense. I'm hoping we get a flashback to explain things better.

squonk · 30-01-2015 05:26PM

I thought it'd be a lazarus pit job myself. It's a bit stupid to be honest. Another thing that was particularly stupid was Marlin trying to convince Thea to leave with him because Ra's had basically declared a fatwa on the family. Great stuff. Not it looks like Thea will be running her whole life. If that wasn't stupid enough though we get the whole "Oh you know Ra's should be afraid of us". OK, you're right daughtereen, sure we'll stay so says Daddy Merlin. This sort of shít has to be written for 12 years olds surely? Either the league of assassins are serious world class badasses or they're not. That coupled with Oliver's return from the dead strikes me as perhaps the moment when this show jumps the shark.

I think that Tatsuo may yet be revealed as something akin to

Skye's mother

on Agents of SHIELD. Thus maybe it was her own blood that restored Oliver to life?
She might have access to the same thing preserving Ra's al Ghul from ageing or being of some immortal species or the like. I know he ain't a spring chicken, but neither he does he look like he would have been around 68 years ago to kill someone on the mountain the previous time that he mentioned.

Just gonna leave this here...

Don't like the helmet. Doesn't really hide his identity if he becomes a vigilante

03-02-2015 10:03PM

it will probably have blackout function on the glass

Yeah I think its going to be like a working prototype and not the final version that will be used when he becomes a vigilante. One thing you can say though, arrow and Flash really know how to make quality costumes

Kirby · 03-02-2015 11:22PM

I thought the one they gave to the canary was f*cking ridiculous though. Sexy is great but that was just juvenile.

Which canary sara or laurel? Sara's costume was fine but laurel's has way too many buckels

CastorTroy · 04-02-2015 12:33AM

So the comic actually killed off a recurring character from the show which I found a stupid thing to do

Bronze Tiger

was killed in this week's issue of the webcomic
