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. Oliver returned home to Starling City to his devoted mother Moira, much-beloved sister Thea, his ex-girlfriend and first love Laurel, and best friend Tommy, but they sense Oliver has been changed by his ordeal on the island. Oliver secretly creates the persona of the Arrow – a vigilante – to right the wrongs of his family, fight the ills of society, and restore Starling City to its former glory. After a year of trying to atone for his father's sins by taking justice into his own hands. Oliver is changed by the death of his best friend, Tommy Merlyn, who dies during the attack on the Glades by Malcolm Merlyn. He vows to honor his friends memory and save Starling City in a different way - refusing to be the "killer" he once was. With his team at his side, John Diggle his personal driver (ex soldier) and Felicity Smoak, his executive assistant (computer expert) Oliver, the Arrow is cleaning up the city in the wake of the destruction of the Glades.

Tftnt Vabs! I just brought this over ...

Something else to spaz about ...

Quote:
The CW's Arrow and its spinoff The Flash won't premiere until October, but DC Entertainment is giving fans some comic relief while they wait. The Arrow digital comic series, which has been on hiatus since last year, is set to return with an all-new chapter in the life of Oliver Queen, while The Flash: Season Zero will bring us up to speed on the life of Barry Allen, a.k.a. the Fastest Man Alive. Both books are being written by the series' showrunners, guaranteeing the stories are in sync with what we see on TV.

Arrow executive producer Marc Guggenheim is thrilled to be expand the show's universe with Arrow: Season 2.5. Unlike the original comic's self-contained chapters, this version will "tell one continuous story that I've separated into two-different arcs," says Guggenheim, who is penning the series with Keto Shimizu, an Arrow staff writer. "It will take us from the end of Season 2 right up to the beginning of Season 3."

Season 2.5 is being designed to fit seamlessly into the TV series' storyline. "We've tried to put in all the elements that people like about the show, so there will be Oliver and Felicity banter," Guggenheim promises. "We're going to see what's happened to Detective Lance after he collapsed in the season finale. A good chunk of the burning questions left over will get answered in the tie-in comic."

The comic, which features art by Joe Bennett with inks by Jack Jadson, will also set the stage for new elements to be seen on TV. "Particularly towards the latter half of the series, we're going to start introducing characters who you'll see in Season 3," Guggenheim teases. "If everything goes according to plan you'll start to see characters in the comics before they show up on TV."

Guggenheim's fellow Arrow exec producer Andrew Kresiberg, who is now also showrunner on The Flash, is excited to give readers more of Barry Allen's backstory as he settles into his new identity as the Scarlet Speedster. "Flash: Season Zero takes place between the pilot and episode 2," Kreisberg says. "Barry will [already] be the Flash, he will have his team, everyone will be in that world, and we'll introducing a new set of villains that we won't be seeing on the TV show. It'll feel like the same heart, humor and spectacle that you get watching Flash."

Season Zero, which is being co-written by Brooke Eikmeier and Katherine Walczak and features art by Phil Hester and Eric Gapstur, will showcase the entire TV cast, plus these new rogues, a group of circus performers who gained super powers as a result of the S.T.A.R. Labs particle accelerator explosion that also transformed Barry (as seen in the Arrow episode "Three Ghosts," as well as The Flash's pilot). This "freakshow gallery," as Kreisberg calls them, are lead by Mr. Bliss, a character who first appeared in DC's Starman comic series: "He has the ability to manipulate peoples' emotions. He and his cadre of circus folk have decided that they've been pushed around long enough and are going to take it to society."

Though The Flash (like Arrow) will be have a real world feel, the comic companion will embrace the franchise's colorful roots. "The villains are a little bit more costume-y and a little bit more outlandish," Kreisberg says. "They don't necessarily have to be as grounded as on the TV show."

The first chapter of Arrow: Season 2.5 is scheduled for a digital release on Monday, Sept. 1, followed by the first chapter of The Flash: Zero Year on Monday, Sept. 8. The series will alternate releases every Monday at readdcentertainment.com and via the DC Comics app, the iBookstore, Nook Store and Kindle Store.

The first printed collection of The Flash goes on sale Wednesday, Oct. 1, while the initial Arrow book reaches comic book stores on Wednesday, Oct. 8.

@Fly, two things I got from your post. They have totally scrapped the original Felicity Smoak background; which wasn't much, it went from crap to mulch and are using it for fertilizer. Luckily, I am actually accepting of retconning. They are now revamping the entire Felicity Smoak storyline into something far more interesting, for me at least. No Edward Raymond/Felicity Smoak in our history. Felicity Smoak is her own entity, as we FS fans have said since the beginning. She is not based on the characters, they just took her name. FS wasn't even implied to be good at computers she was just a business woman with a computer company...think Meg Whitman for computer people and/or politics people. I was into both so I know her. Anyway our Felicity is the total anti-thesis of her name sake. Good job Arrow.

Second point I've taken from this...These guys know how to sell a comic book. They are making sure over and over and over again to stress the fact Felicity is in the comic, Felicity will be bantering with Oliver, ie Olicity will be in play in the comics. They know how to make it work. As a former collector, I always buy two. Those guys will be getting $10 per release. Start bringing out action figures...ie Felicity/Sara and more New York cons and they will be robbing me blind. These guys know who their cash cow is and they are milking that like I have never seen. For those who say Olicity is not a large part of the fanbase, the actions made by the Execs on this says otherwise. As an economists, it makes me smile. As a consumer, comic fan, and Arrow fan I feel used and abused. I need to work these feelings out. I should never have gotten my Masters in Economics.

Thanks for the new thread! I like that Felicity is a completely new and original character that the writers only took the name of comic Felicity Smoak

“ARROW”

Wednesdays (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) on The CW

After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the Pacific. He returned home to Starling City, welcomed by his devoted mother Moira (Susanna Thompson), beloved sister Thea (Willa Holland) and former flame Laurel Lance.

With the aid of his trusted chauffeur/bodyguard John Diggle (David Ramsey), the computer-hacking skills of Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards) and the occasional, reluctant assistance of former police detective, now police captain, Quentin Lance (Paul Blackthorne), Oliver has been waging a one-man war on crime.

After suffering a massive defeat at the end of Season One, Oliver started Season Two determined to fight his battles without causing bloodshed. But this new credo was challenged when his sworn enemy, Slade Wilson (Manu Bennett), returned to Starling City bent on destroying Oliver’s life. Though Slade succeeded in hurting Oliver, killing his mother and driving his sister Thea to her biological father, Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman), Oliver ultimately defeated Slade and saved Starling City from Slade’s brutal army.

In the aftermath of this victory, Season Three opens with Arrow now a hero to the citizens of Starling. Crime is down, people feel safer, and Captain Lance even calls off the Anti-Vigilante Task Force. Basking in his success, Oliver believes he can finally have a private life and asks Felicity out on a date. But the second Oliver takes his eye off the ball, a deadly villain reappears in Starling, forcing Oliver to realize that he can never be Oliver Queen – not as long as the city needs The Arrow.

Based on characters appearing in comic books and graphic novels published by DC Comics, ARROW is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (“Green Lantern,” “Brothers & Sisters”), Marc Guggenheim (“Eli Stone,” “Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters”), Andrew Kreisberg (“Warehouse 13,” “The Vampire Diaries”) and Sarah Schechter (“Flash,” “Mysteries of Laura,” “Pan”).

Woah woah woah!! Is that a joke or a legit episode description?!?! I think they are trying to kill us by giving Olicity fans so much to crazy over until October.

ETA: I mean there's the hitch right? SA has said numerous times that we'll find out very early on whether Oliver truly meant the ILY. He's going to be on the verge of admitting his feelings and bam! Some villain swoops in and he has to re-prioritize. He'll rethink the idea that he can have a normal relationship. Emily tweeted the first episode has "heartbreak". I could see Oliver having to "be cruel to be kind" and being a jerk to her so that she can move on… to Ray Palmer.

This season is going to do things to me, guys. Emotionally compromised doesn't cover it.

Looooooooool so much for Oliver never showing signs of romantic feelings and olicity being a tease this makes so much sense with all the things SA has been saying tho, like I would bet so much money Oliver gives another ' the life that I lead' speech which is why SA keeps bringing up 2x06 in interviews. Ahhhhh this is exactly what I wanted!
