ARROW: New Details On 'Black Canary', Return Of H.I.V.E., Suicide Squad, And More

So are captain boomerang and deathstroke in the squad now??

Arrow's SS?

@Jordanstine

If Michael Wilkinson is doing the costume designs, then it won't look anything like that.

The DCCU's Suicide Squad is going to put this one to shame.

Moreover, when did H.I.V.E. make an appearance on Arrow?

Whenever someone associated with arrow says "among the best we've ever done" I ignore it. Stephen Amell actually said the climb was one of the best episodes they'd done, and that wasn't very good IMO.

I do like Arrow, or I did before the meandering, annoying, Felicity fangirl-ized S3

Flash is where it's at.

And the suicide squad movie will put this SS to shame.

I actually like arrow's deadshot. I don't have any faith in will smith doing the role justice

Don't get me wrong, arrow's interpretation of the suicide squad is just terrible, but they did get deadshot right.

almost forget that sin was on the show, i cant be the only one...

See pictures like this make me happy that the DCCU isn't connected to the CWverse

@aknightinarkham

Ah I remember now. Thanks.

@XF14

Fact is, it's way better then Arrow at the moment. The acting is better )though not flawless but certainly better than Arrow), the dialogue is better (it fits Flash to a tee), and the story arc so far makes more sense, and it keeps you guessing.

@tronvin enlighten me who exactly Deadshot is

The Arrow version of Deadshot has absolutely nothing in common with the comicbook version. The first episode this Deadshot appeared in Arrow he SPRAYED BULLETS. WTF Deadshot NEVER misses.

Not to mention losing his eye (Deathstroke) tatooing victims names on his body (Victor Zsaz sp?) just seems they blended characters when making this particular "Deadshot"

Annnnnd it's garbage.

@sinsear912

For one, Deadshot doesn't tattoo the names of his victims onto himself. That goes against him being a professional. That makes it like he finds his victims as prizes instead of just a part of the job.

In his psychological profile, Marnie Herrs says that Floyd Lawton has strong self-destructive urges. Herrs believes that he is looking for a way to die, and he hopes the Suicide Squad will provide one. Despite this, she says there is another side of him that wants to be well and doesn't know how. Captain Boomerang asks why he chooses to live in a prison cell, and Deadshot replies that "a bed's a bed."

He has described himself as similar to Rick Flag, and states that they are both "lone wolves" who "don't fit in the pack." Herrs asks him about his sexual relationships, and he says that he exclusively visits prostitutes. He prefers sex to be simple like a business transaction, and hates figuring out what women want in relationships.

Floyd Lawton has told Marnie Herrs that life means nothing to him. In his own words, he is "killing time, waiting to die." He tells Marnie that evil is real, and the only way to cure some people is with a bullet to the head. When his son was killed and he murdered the people responsible, he described this as a necessary action to protect his reputation. This was accompanied by an emotional outburst. Marnie Herrs accused him of being unable to admit his feelings, because he could not deal with his own anger and grief. He often expresses disappointment at surviving his missions, such as immediately lamenting "damn" when awakening in a hospital. In Identity Crisis, Deadshot shot himself in the neck to make Kyle Rayner drop his guard.

His brother was the only person he ever cared about. He claims to have felt nothing, no guilt or remorse, when he killed his brother. He says the only life anybody really cares about is their own, and he does not even care about that. And due to the relationship with his brother he has a strong bond with Rick Flag. John Ostrander implied that this relationship also colored Deadshot's rivalry with Batman, whom Deadshot had always been unable - or subconsciously unwilling - to kill.

Deadshot also has a dry sense of humor.

Arrow fans don't know jack diddly squat about Deadshot. Sad how badly WB/CW raped this character.

In Smallville he looked like a gay cowboy.

And of course no mask either.

After the Will Smith casting/Deadshot race bending I just about gave up on WB ever getting him right

Isn't the Arrow SS dead?

@TronVin
Dude, bravo!You can make a small article of Deadshot.Seriously.

*thinks if he copy/pasted it*

Oh no dexter/netman is back as @LP4. Just when I was starting to find everyone growing up. What a shame.

@TronVin- WB don't want Deadshot in a mask. I learned it from Smallville and Arrow.

WB struggle with Deadshot. I don't understand why.
