Fans of DC Comics' Batman comic book series and Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins, should be aware that the name Ra's al Ghul translates from Arabic to Demon's Head. During the first season of Arrow, a possible clue to the villain was revealed when Malcolm Merlyn stated that he received his training in Nanda Parbat, which is a fictional city of DC Comics that's been a stronghold of Ra's League of Assassins in the past. The 5th episode will reportedly feature a character named "Awwal who is a Dark Archer, trained by Merlyn and [who] is after Lisa." The 'Lisa' in question is the new season 2 love interest for Oliver, one that was described as being "a mysterious woman with a tragic past. She will wreak havoc on Oliver's heart and is equal to Oliver in every way." If she was trained by the League then she'd definitely be a physical match for Oliver. The role of Lisa has yet to be cast/officially announced.

| "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." |
