New Promo For ‘Arrow’ Invites You To “Meet Deadshot”

The CW’s Arrow is bringing one of DC Comics’s deadliest assassins front and center in next week’s episode. While Deadshot may not look exactly like he does in the comics, you can tell they took influence from his Arkham City look for this and it looks one hundred times better than that steampunk cowboy we saw on Smallville. Oh, and they made sure and threw in the wrist gun? Awesome. I have a feeling that this episode is going to be even better than the last two as this show continually seems to improve over time. Check out the latest promo for next week’s episode that invites you to “Meet Deadshot”.

Episode 1×03 “Lone Gunmen”—Oliver (Stephen Amell) is surprised when someone shoots and kills one of his targets. As his plan is to bring people to justice vs. outright killing them, Oliver doesn’t appreciate the help and searches for the gunman. He soon learns that the man, Deadshot (guest star Michael Rowe), is taking out businessmen who are scheduled to bid at an auction on an energy company and Walter (Colin Salmon) is one of the bidders. Realizing he can’t protect his family and stop Deadshot at the same time, Oliver enlists Detective Lance’s (Paul Blackthorne) help, but his plan has dire consequences. Meanwhile, Laurel (Katie Cassidy) and Tommy (Colin Donnell) get caught in an awkward situation with Oliver. Willa Holland, David Ramsey and Susanna Thompson also star. Guy Bee directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti & Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Marc Guggenheim & Andrew Kreisberg.
