by Shawn Madden

It appears after the cliffhanger ending of this weeks episode of Arrow, we will see Diggle begin to help train Oliver in his quest to save Starling City. These new promotional photos from the sixth episode of Arrow were just released and feature Oliver Queen training with bodyguard John Diggle. We also get a peak at the Royal Flush Gang’s bank heist in the episode. In the series we will see the gang given a more realistic approach versus their cyborg versions in the comics.

THE ROYAL FLUSH GANG INVADES STARLING CITY — A gang of bank robbers, dubbed The Royal Flush Gang, hits a local bank and seriously wounds an off-duty police officer during a heist. Diggle (David Ramsey) tells Oliver (Stephen Amell) he needs to deviate from his father’s list and start helping the citizens of Starling City. Meanwhile, Tommy (Colin Donnell) asks Thea (Willa Holland) for relationship advice, but things get awkward when she realizes he was asking about Laurel (Katie Cassidy). Moira (Susanna Thompson) confronts Oliver about all of his recent disappearances in the middle of family functions. John Behring directed the episode written by Moira Kirland & Marc Guggenheim (#106).

‘Torchwood’s John Barrowman AKA Captain Jack Harkness Joins CW’s ‘Arrow’!

by Scott Alminiana

Looks like Torchwood and Dr. Who fans just found a reason to tune in and check out Arrow!

EW is reporting that Captain Jack Harkness himself, John Barrowman has signed on to the new CW show for a recurring role during the first season.

Produces are being tight lipped about who Barrowman will play. All they will say is that he will be playing a “well-dressed man” who  “as mysterious as he is wealthy … he is an acquaintance of the Queen family and a prominent figure in Starling City.”

Of course he’ll play a well-dressed and mysterious man, it’s Captain Jack Harkness dammit! As to who is character will be I have no clue. I naturally assume that he will be a character from the Green Arrow continuity but seeing as I’m not a fan of Robin Hoo…I mean Green Arrow, I have no idea who he will be. Guess we’ll have to tune in to find out. Arrow debuts Wednesday, Oct. 10 on The CW.
