ARROW vs Ra's Al Ghul Round 2 Has Devilish Third Participant

Stephen Amell says the Arrow is humbled after his defeat at the hands of Ra's Al Ghul (Matt Nable) so he gets help from an unlikely source to take down the Demon's Head. Can you guess who?

If the Arrow is going to request help to take down Ra's Al Ghul, the natural assumption would be that he calls up Grant Gustin's Flash.  The Fastest Man Alive should be able to take down even a talented warrior like Ra's Al Ghul in no time at all and still have time to stop at Big Belly Burger before anyone in Central City realizes he's missing.  But according to Stephen Amell, the Arrow get some help from someone he would definitely not want to be working with.  Speaking with Variety, Amell stated, "I think [Arrow] comes back [to Starling City] a little more soft-spoken, a little humbled and forced to do things and work with people that he never would have considered working with before. I wouldn’t go so far as to say he has to make a deal with the devil, but pretty close.”

Bearing Amell's comments in mind, the two logical choices would be Manu Bennet's Deathstroke (who's confirmed to return in Season 3) and John Barrowman's Merlyn. Either one would be a worthy ally in a fight with Ra's. Hell, for someone of Ra's capabilities, the Arrow might want to consider bringing in both of these guys to fight Ra's and the League of Assassins.

This Wednesday will see the 12th episode of Arrow season 3 premiere and with the show's production team currently filming episode 3x17 "Suicidal Tendencies" there's just 6 more episodes to shoot before Arrow fulfills its 23 episode requisition. Things can change in those last 6 episodes but it sounds like Arrow has to make a deal with one of the bad guys to take down Ra's.

Arrow airs at 8PM, Wednesdays on The CW.

OMG its Laurel Lance i bet. She has became a top vigilante in all of 2 weeks in the worst push for a superhero ever in cm. WWE writers be writing her storyline.

Love how Arrow is essentially the tv version of Batman. Since we'll never see Bats on the small screen, I suppose I'm cool with it. They do a fair job. Their treatment of Deathstroke was amazing tho..

"I wouldn’t go so far as to say he has to make a deal with the devil, but pretty close.”

So, Oliver works with the main villain from season one who killed thousands of innocent people or he works with the main villain from season two who killed his mother.

Although, it could be a misdirect/trick and the "deal with the devil" he alludes to is actually a deal with Ra's. Oliver sets up Malcolm Merlyn and makes Merlyn believe they're working together, when in fact Oliver made a deal with Ra's to turn over Merlyn if Ra's agrees to leave Thea and Starling City alone.

@LEVITIKUZ @TheGambitFreakIsBatmanOfCBM

I've said it before, I'll say it again. David Boreanaz would be a great choice for the DCtv Bruce Wayne/Batman.

@LEVITIKUZ

As @CarlsinCharge mentioned, the reason I suggest Boreanaz for DCtv Bruce Wayne/Batman is his long history with the WB/CW network as Angel.

Wish the B-man would be the one or even Barry but I'm hoping for Deathstroke. Imagine that fight.

I hope when Oliver comes back he has a sense of humor and a van dyke beard. I would like to see him using the boxing glove arrow. Before people say it can't work hear me out. I could see it being a weighted arrow, that Oliver uses to knock people out.

As for who he would work with, it sounds like Malcom Merlyn, but I could see it being Deathstroke instead. The reason why I say that is because of the hate Ra's al Ghul and Slade Wilson have for each other, in the comics.

If any one wants to read a new Arrow or Flash interview, here's another.
