ARROW NEWS:
- Arrow’s First Season 7 Synopsis Teases a Major New Villain
(Date: 25 June 2018)
- According to Warner Bros. Television’s description for the
Arrow Comic-Con International in San Diego panel, “There has been
no shortage of close calls for Oliver Queen when it comes to
protecting his Super Hero identity, but in the season six finale,
he was finally backed into a corner and forced to reveal himself to
the world as the Green Arrow. Now, Oliver will come face-to-face
with many of the criminals he placed behind bars, as he makes a new
home for himself at Slabside Maximum Security Prison. Oliver will
find himself vulnerable in a way unlike ever before when a
mysterious new enemy begins to unravel his work as Green Arrow,
challenging him to redeem his name or risk losing everything.”
Arrow returns to The CW on Monday, October 15 at 8 pm ET/PT

- Arrow Showrunner Reveals Season 7 Premiere Title (Date: 27
June 2018)
- Dark days are undoubtedly ahead for the character, who is now
stuck in a place filled with prisoners the Green Arrow helped
imprison — and it’s only about to get from bad to worse. The new
showrunner of Arrow revealed that the title of the Season 7
premiere is “Inmate 4587,” hinting that life behind bars will
certainly not be easy for Oliver Queen. Oliver’s inmate number,
4587 is an Easter egg in and of itself, considering that it was the
agent number of Vinnie Terranova, the main character of the classic
television series Wiseguy. But on top of that, this also isn’t the
first time these numbers have appeared in the Arrowverse. Most
notably, it was the number of a warehouse in the Legends of
Tomorrow episode “Star City 2046,” an episode that presented
viewers with a very dark future for Green Arrow’s beloved
city.

GENERAL DC NEWS:
- Legends of Tomorrow’s Season 4 Threat Revealed (Date: 25
June 2018)
- According to Warner Bros. Television’s description for the
Legends of Tomorrow Comic-Con International in San Diego panel,
“After defeating Mallus by cuddling him to death with a giant
stuffed animal named Beebo, the Legends were ready to ease off the
gas. That was until Constantine arrived to inform them that, in
solving one major problem, they have created another, much larger
one. When the Legends let time crumble in order to release and
defeat Mallus, the barrier between worlds softened. History is now
infected with “Fugitives” – magical creatures from myths,
fairytales, and legends. Having been expelled throughout time by
people like Constantine, these Fugitives are now returning to our
world in droves and making a real mess of things. So when all hell
breaks loose, who ya gonna call? That’s right, the Legends!”

- Legends of Tomorrow: Major S3 Character Confirms Her Season 4
Return (Date: 26 June 2018)
- Maisie Richardson-Sellers is returning as Amaya Jiwe/Vixen in
Legends season 4. Executive Producer Marc Guggenheim noted that
Richardson-Sellers would return, “Yes, Maisie will absolutely be
back. We just felt like we owed it to the character to complete
this arc, complete this story loop that we got her in. Once we took
her off of her path in 1942, it was always incumbent upon us to
return her to that path. That was something that hung over us as
writers, and hung over the character… I’m looking forward to a
different storyline for Amaya next year.”
