I don't know if this has been posted, but here's a pic of Routh in costume with a tinted visor, from the BrandonRouth.com Facebook page.

Neato! I'm getting a serious Robocop vibe..... in a good way.

Hmm...I wonder if that's for a photo-shoot or an actual episode that they're filming.

I don't think they're filming the Season 3 finale yet, so that bodes well that we may actually see Atom in action before the finale.

However, the last time that I checked..Brandon only has 12 episodes under his contract. And so far, he's appeared in 8 episodes...9 if you include tonight and 10 if you include next week.

I don't think his trip to "The Flash" counts on his 12 episode count. So he only has two episodes left after next week on Arrow.

That pic is from the 18th episode of The Flash and Routh said that the first appearance of the costume will be in the February 25th episode of Arrow.

So unless Routh's contract has been extended, I'm guessing that he'll either miss the remaining episodes after episode 18 and not show up until the Finale....OR he could not appear in the Finale and show up in a earlier episode after episode 18.

They could have designed the helmet part much better but maybe the suit will have other attributes that will hide his appearance better that a still picture can't capture. Unless he is also going to be fighting microscopic bad guys who is really going to notice who he really is when he is in a shrunken form? How is he supposed to breathe while in shrunken form without a respirator built into the suit?

 

[CaptainWagner]

that part is not working well for him "show wise" with the silly loop hole of his hq of his & how easy it is to break into it. I'm just happy he'll finally tell thea cause a mac truck had an easy to bust through that silly barrier of a lie he made . cause ollie couldn't be bothered to have a club office room with a secret passage way that lead to the arrow lair. & better security lock then just a touch tone phone one styles one . seriously bio metric's ask Argus via diggles soon to be wife the former security guard should ask that too. it';s too late now I hope she join's another agency

yeah I know

Which is something I would love for Ray to point out when he inevitably learns the Aroow's identity and Ollie starts whining about him going public.

 

[SpideyVille]

Idk, the suit is kind of looking a bit bulky. Like it's hard to move in.

 

[Urich Leeds]

so I guessing The atom is going to need body armor? I guessing the suit will make him stronger

Due to his ability to alter his mass (not just size), super strength is apart of his abilities.

Part of me wishes they'd gone more with the material used for the Flash's costume, but I'll try not to be overly judgmental until I actually see it in action.

Brandon's Ray would have probably had a better chance of gaining further support from Fans and the CW Executives, when it comes to getting his own show, if the writers had introduced some kind of interesting back story/narrative setup from his own universe that people would want to see....that just doesn't involve him gearing up.

We had Barry telling Felicity about how the Reverse Flash killed his mom when he appeared on Arrow and that really set things up for his own show.

Plus, it would have been better if they had used Barry to do more in this show, other than simply be the foil to so many Olicity shippers.lol

Yeah, that's what ultimately makes me fear they have no plans for Ray beyond a few future team ups. Barry's 2 episodes pretty much laid the groundwork for his series. Here,we haven't much to go on. There's been no set up/no future cast members,nada.

I'm really digging the idea of a CW Justice Society:

Green Arrow
The Flash
Arsenal
Black Canary
The Atom
Vixen
The Huntress
Firestorm
Vibe
Wildcat
Katana

I also want "Supergirl" connected to these shows, to give us a "TV Trinity":

Batman = Arrow
Superman = The Flash
Wonder Woman = Supergirl

 

[Snow Queen]

I think the ship has sailed as far as cop killer Huntress being a hero, unfortunately. One of the worst takes on a character this series has done, in my opinion. Though that may be more because Huntress is one of my favourite comic book characters and I see none of her in this incarnation.

 

[Dark Raven]

If Stephen Amell can't sing, he'll be the odd person out if they have an Arrow-Flash-Supergirl karaoke session.

Eh, it's just a couple cops. Should be ok.

MEGA TINT!!!

lol; well it's pretty much 99% accurate to what the hologram showed...

 

[KillerMcQueen]

It's more a matter of Stephen would never in a million years agree to sing on the show than whether he can or cannot sing.

 

[Boy Scout]

Yes, for whatever reason, he's very much against it.

 

[KillerMcQueen]

At the portland con I was at someone asked him if/when Arrow would have a musical episode, his response was:

"When Oliver quits or dies, I leave the show, and the writers run out of ideas"

Well given on how they're now trying to turn Malcolm into an tragic "anti-hero", I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to make Huntress into an hero, regardless of her past.

 

[Mikelus]

They can still make the Huntress a hero, is a shame they went too far with her dark side, but she's not worse than Malcolm. She should become a member of the Squad, better than Cupid-stupid!

I also remember what hippie said about Malcolm killing the wrong person it was very interesting to see the thoughts of that event too. Especially since Malcolm wife murderer was yet to be proven gulty the guy he killed was suspected, but not proven guilty yet Malcolm went off without it being proven & finds out brick was the one years later, after he ruined the city him self for nothing .

what hippie said about it was cool & interesting too. that being said lol snow qeen is right the ship has sailed with this shows version of huntress. The next time we'll see her it'll be as Waller's favorite assassin the one she couldn't turn Oliver fully into . this shows huntress will be fighting against the birds of prey if anything cause she's embraced the psycho in her self especially thanks to this shows Waller.

Anyway people forget that power girl was a BOP too. seeing that super girl is being added to universe yeah she's likely to be used in the place since huntress is a terrorist( most cops know her face cause she took off her mask to world & it's on the most wanted list / assassin of Waller now.

Oh just cause this show's writers are pretending with Malcolm it doesn't mean if Malcolm run's into captain lance the latter won't take him in with his beat cops. it's not like his record was ex-sponged for what he did to the city. it's the same case with huntress & we've seen how this show's Waller is when people ask her for help like with katana's husband. she won't do anything for you help wise unless you have something incriminating on her or it benefits her

Because he isn't a drama club dork.
