After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the Pacific. When he returns home to Starling City, his devoted mother Moira, much-beloved sister Thea, and best friend Tommy welcome him home, but they sense Oliver has been changed by his ordeal on the island. While Oliver hides the truth about the man he's become, he desperately wants to make amends for the actions he took as the boy he was. Most particularly, he seeks reconciliation with his former girlfriend, Laurel Lance. As Oliver reconnects with those closest to him, he secretly creates the persona of Arrow - a vigilante – to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory. By day, Oliver plays the role of a wealthy, carefree and careless philanderer he used to be - flanked by his devoted chauffeur/bodyguard, John Diggle - while carefully concealing the secret identity he turns to under cover of darkness. However, Laurel's father, Detective Quentin Lance, is determined to arrest the vigilante operating in his city. Meanwhile, Oliver's own mother, Moira, knows much more about the deadly shipwreck than she has let on – and is more ruthless than he could ever imagine.


ARROW stars Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen, Colin Donnell as Tommy, Katie Cassidy as Laurel Lance, David Ramsey as John Diggle, Willa Holland as Thea Queen, with Susanna Thompson as Moira Queen and Paul Blackthorne as Detective Quentin Lance. Watch Arrow Wednesday at 8/7c on The CW!

I love this show! Great concept art... I'm still waiting on that Supermax film!!!

If you Green Arrow fans don't know what that is... Google it, bloody great idea for a film!

Dude these are pretty awesome. Really really good.
TankD - 3/14/2013, 3:11 PM
So is this show REALLY any good? i mean I hated smallville i like quality shows like dexter and GoT is this worth checking out?
misner89 - 3/14/2013, 3:12 PM
Deathstroke Looks badass man
thewonderer - 3/14/2013, 3:15 PM
Why does Slade have white hair?
ndwwrestler2 - 3/14/2013, 3:16 PM
@TankD I've only seen a little bit of Smallville, but it doesn't seem like it was half as good as Arrow is now.

They really improved in acting,dialog, and story since the Pilot Episode came out.

@TankD
It's definitely worth a watch. I hated smallville too, but this show is great. My only complaint would be that batman isn't the main character...and ALL the characters:)
thewonderer - 3/14/2013, 3:17 PM
@TankD

Did you enjoy Nolans Batman?

I'd actually compare it to The Dark Knight Rises tenfold. I love TDKR, but I'll admit its flawed.

Arrow compounds that. When its good, oh boy is it good. It has A TON of logic gaps and bs moments though you really have to just accept.

The writing ranges from mediocre to just brilliant.

put a damn mask on deadshot!
TheFox - 3/14/2013, 3:23 PM
Awesome!

I love this series so far, and I do hope that we get to see a spate of new super villains and cameo heroes in the future-- the Question in particular (though he'd have to have the no-face mask, 'cause otherwise, what's the point?). I just hope they bring a little more color to the cotumes of the future characters; Deathstroke is a standout for me because of the yellow mask, but everyone else is just a little too drab (well, maybe other than Huntress, but the purple stands out MUCH better in the concept art than it does on the show).

Seriously, I can't wait to see how this season plays out!

@thewonderer: In the comics, Slade has ALWAYS had white hair. Since they hadn't cast the role when they did the concept art, the artist was probably just going from the books for hair color.

I seen these online last week, they're awesome! I wonder if the markings on the Dark Archer's costume mean anything.

I've never been able to find the Supermax script online, anyone have a link to it?
IgnurRant - 3/14/2013, 3:34 PM
Love everything but I really dislike what they did for The Huntress. Would have preferred something more akin to The Punisher.

And can we get Ollie some green tactical pants and out of those ridiculous leather pants. lol. Bothers me so.
TankD - 3/14/2013, 3:43 PM
Thanks guys Ill def check out the first episode and see for myself. But thanks for the input! Ill let you know what I think. what really got me interested was this concept art deathstroke is bad as and hes played by the guy that plays crixus on Spartacus which is a plus!
SUPERBATSPIDERMAN - 3/14/2013, 3:46 PM
I like that concept art of Slade because of the whine hair. Don't get me wrong Manu Bennett is doing great as the character but I kind of wish they gave him white hair like the comic character. the other concept arts are pretty much what they used in the show.
RetroFit - 3/14/2013, 3:47 PM
I love this show!
Azrael725 - 3/14/2013, 3:52 PM
I know where to get Deadshot's armor. it's an actual product and it's pretty sweet. I would really like to see an updated costume for Ollie sometime in the future. Give him something a little more tactical and possibly sleeveless would be sweet.
Nomis - 3/14/2013, 4:03 PM
LOVE ARROW !!!!!
DarkGrifter - 3/14/2013, 4:10 PM
@TheWonderer Slade has always had White hair. The only things that I found a bit disappointing was the fact he didn't have white hair, he was considerably shorter that Oliver (Deathstroke should be TALL) and that Billy Wintergreen was the one to be blinded in his right eye (c'mon CW, I know Slade wasn't the only operative with the split mask motif, but having someone other than Slade made blind in his right eye is just taking the piss).
thewonderer - 3/14/2013, 4:15 PM
Thanks for the info. guys, thought it was a Manu Bennett design.
GetsugaTensho22 - 3/14/2013, 4:16 PM

@Darkgrifter

Keep in mind the island is in the past. Slade could still be blinded. Billy wasn't blinded, he we killed when Salde drove his sword into the mans brain. Think about how funny it will be when he loses that eye.

I think they wanted Badass more then height. While he may be sorter then Oliver, on the island he looks far more imposing. White hair? Well we see what went down with China White.
aRandomSinisterClone - 3/14/2013, 4:55 PM
Deathstroke looks great. def going as him to philly N ny comic con this year. Young Justice Version though.
SpeedyX10 - 3/14/2013, 4:55 PM
Nice!
ReynMan - 3/14/2013, 7:21 PM
whoa! Slade Wilson is actually better than the concept!
Optimus83 - 3/14/2013, 7:30 PM

SigmaCenturion - 3/15/2013, 3:55 AM
That Deadshot looks better than what they used hope it makes an appearance later on.
RexDartEskimoSpy - 3/15/2013, 9:10 AM
"Let's put Deathstroke in all black, except for high-vis yellow on his mask." ???

Makes about as much sense as Baleman wearing all black except for a shiny gold belt, I guess...
