PREDICTION: The Dark Archer is Deathstroke initiating his revenge against Oliver for what happened on the island.
He's being re-introduced in the same episode as the Dark Archer appears, and it's pretty established that Deathstroke can match Arrow in hand-to-hand fighting. Besides, despite it being obvious that the Dark Archer is wearing a ninja mask, we still can't properly see his eyes.
'Arrow' seeking Shado: Will she be an ally for Oliver?
"Arrow" is wasting no time introducing a multitude of villains and allies from the DC Comics universe -- and soon, we'll meet yet another. Zap2it has learned that producers are currently seeking the perfect actress to play Shado.
She's a vengeful archer and martial artist who first appeared in the comics in 1987. In the comics, Shado's purpose was to kill Americans who had disgraced her father and caused shame to fall on her family.
Of course, "Arrow" will give the character a new, unexpected twist. For our purposes, Shado is the beautiful young daughter of Yao Fei, the expert archer and mentor who saved Oliver's life on the island of Lian Yu. Shado will make her first appearance in episode 114, titled "The Odyssey."
As we've already seen thanks to the interrogators, Yao Fei was once in the army. Shado's introduction will give us a better understanding of his history and how he came to Lian Yu. And yes -- she will have that familiar dragon tattoo.
The question remains as to whether Shado will be a friend or an adversary for Oliver. In the comics, they were at odds, until Shado helped Oliver take down a villain who had captured Laurel. They ended up working together to take down several more formidable villains.

I'm glad you really like the show Craigbfan. I think it's great too, and to me it seems to get better as they're getting into their groove of things.Just started watching this show today. Wow, it's freaking great.
Part of me is ecstatic that we're getting such a great show and another part of me is sad that Amell who is doing a great job at playing Queen didn't get a chance to star as him in the now defunct Supermax film.
Either way I'm really liking this series. On episode 3 right now.
Spartacus is a great show, and I think he's a good fit for the role.Never watched Spartacus. Never heard of Manu Bennett. But I'm looking forward to see him as Deathstroke.

I agree, it's a great show. Manu Bennett is awesome as Crixus. I think at first he'll appear in flashbacks as they've announced, but after that they'll most likely have him in a recurring villain role. I don't think they'll waste having Manu on their cast.AAAAAHHHH CRIXUS IS GONNA BE DEATHSTROKE AAAAH
Coming from a huge Spartacus fan, Crixus fan, and Manu fan, this is incredible news. Even more incredible is they say Deathstroke will have a major role on the show and he is already signed to multiple shows. Will this turn into the most epic superhero show ever created? Holy crap, great casting, or greatest?
If you haven't seen Spartacus Blood and Sand, what in hell is wrong with you? Watch it right goddamn now.

Man there are going to be a lot of arrows flying in this show. If I lived in that city I would definitely open up a bow & arrow shop instead of a gun shop and make millions lol.
Italian...Indian.. and now it looks like Oliver is dining Asian next.
Thats why they need to move Nikita to wednesdays
It's really an unfair comparison. Smallville started before the re-invention of the comicbook movie.
I'd love to add to that list, and it would be a very long list.
The only thing Smallville has over Arrow are Michael Rosenbaum and John Glover.
