Did they reveal how much time past between s1 and s2? It seemed like a few months...

It's been 5 months.

Last season of Arrow was very good. I hope this season could be much better.

I was finally able to catch up with the rest of season 1 this weekend (thanks to Netflix!) and watched the premiere today. Overall, I'm really really digging this show. I love how this show doesn't pussyfoot around things **coughcoughsmallvillecough** and is just a straight up crime fighting superhero show. FINALLY. This premiere shows that we have a lot to look forward to: the rise of Roy Harper as a crime fighter, Ollie becoming a noble hero and refusing to kill, Black Canary and.....THE FLASH!!

This is gonna be a great season for DC fans.

I'd just like to state that I DO NOT believe that just because a hero kills, that he/she is automatically "not noble." It all depends on the context or situation.

 

[p4poetic]

A hero should only kill if its the only solution IMO.

Why, because they both have light colored hair and wore black? I honestly didn't feel that they looked too similar at all. Especially when you got a good look at Canary. She looked just like she is supposed to. Awesome rack and all.

I think if there was some fishnets it'd be an easier distinction.

 

[Loki882]

To be fair, it was a really quick shot, it was a night, and she was constantly moving around. I think that when she slows down a little, or there's better lighting, that the distinctions will become more apparent.

Am I the only one glad that she was dressed properly?

 

[DrRocket]

Yep. Don't think fish nets would go down so well....

Nope.

I've never really liked the fishnets. At best, certain artists are good enough to make me tolerate them. I actually much prefer the gray stocking things that she wears in the various DC animate projects (JLU, YJ, the Green Arrow short film, etc).

Just watched BC in JLU, yeah the stockings would be better than the fish nets.

 

[Nathan]

I definitely prefer Black Canary with the stockings/tights.

 

[Hunter Rider]

^^^^^ What is that from?

 

[Nathan]

It's from Young Justice.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Thanks.

 

[DrRocket]

^ yes, that one would do nicely.

 

[dreammaster]

man what an awesome episode bring episode 2

 

[Loki882]

Black Canary from JLU.



Black Canary from DC Showcase Green Arrow (sorry if it's a little blurry).

Yes, the stockings work much better than fishnets, both practically and aesthetically.

 

[DrRocket]

^ that one would be awesome. I just watched that dc showcase yesterday.

Unless you are Superman then you never kill...NEVERt:t:t:

 

[greenlantern248]

I thought that was a great episode, it's so good to have Arrow back on.
Like everyone else love the nod to The Flash, and love seeing Black Canary at the end.
I do think Felicity is now Ollie's personal assistant that would explain why she was in the meetings and why her and dig was at the club after "the hoods" took Thea.
Can't wait for episode two.

 

[Justin]

Thought it was great, really glad this show is back. Starting at a nice high tempo too compared to last season which took a while to get going.

Loving the businesswoman, theres obviously going to be a lot more to her. Black Canary was interesting, had always assumed Laurel would do that.

Laurel seems... better than she did previously. As does Thea. Nice that Roy is main cast now. Liked the new cave. 9/10. Good premiere.
