I love it when Psych changes their intro to fit the episode, it's sooo fun

“Among the many misconceptions humanity holds dear is the fallacy that all beings are created equal. In truth, there are those who are greater, they are called heroes. But even among heroes there are different echelons, the highest belongs to those known as the paragons, they are the only hope of all creation”

WOW 🤯

"She [Felicity] is ever-present in Oliver's mind... We found Oliver can't wear his wedding ring in the premiere for a very specific reason, but he can wear it in the second episode. And it wasn't built into the script, but I spoke to our director, Antonio Negret, and we built a moment of Oliver putting his ring back on and thinking about it. So Emily's gone, off the show, but Felicity and William and Mia are ever-present in Oliver's mind."

#Arrow - Speculations

What if Oliver was sent to a “Purgatory” or “Limbo? ...And in every episode he encounters someone from his past and a new story developes...🤔

This frame above is from the SDCC trailer shows Oliver going down the elevator of the Lair where I think he’ll find Adrian Chase...

In the comics “Limbo” as the panels say below is a place where heroes and others end up to be forgotten.

What if Oliver finds Tommy, Prometheus, Moira, Anatoly and Malcolm “living” there? ...Or maybe he will “re-live” differently moments from his past...and learn a lesson

What if Felicity traveled to Limbo with The Monitor to find Oliver?

Maybe? What do you think?

This suit is very season 1 #Justsaying

“Oliver’s theme of the season is a hero's sacrifice and every character's going to go through that this season. And this is the ultimate hero's sacrifice, to know you're going to die, but you're going to save so many people's lives. And that's always been the juggle of the hero, of being selfless and putting yourself and sort of your family, in Oliver's case, a little bit second so that you can do the greater good.”

#Arrow | Tommy Merlyn in the comics

In the New 52 Comics, Tommy Merlyn was a close friend of Oliver Queen who was attending a party on The Apollo, an oil rig operated by Queen Industries, where Oliver was relegated by his father to do clerical work. The rig was taken over by Iron Eagle and his men who strapped bombs to the rig as well as most of the party guests though Merlyn managed to get himself and Ollie to safety. He tried to convince him to stop his assualt on the pirates, but Ollie refused to listen and caused the incident that blew up the rig. Horribly burned, he managed to cling to some flotsam and blamed Ollie for what had happened before seeming to die. He floated to an island where he was taken in and treated by robed figures who remark that he has ‘potential.’ Given the character’s history pre-Flashpoint, it’s likely that these are the League of Assassins.
