I love that Laurel has ditched the wigs for her natural hair as Black Canary. It takes away the comic feel and makes her look very gritty and ready for action. In the three months they've been on the streets, she's come into her own, and we will likely enjoy her character progression.
Speedy is perched up and ready for action in this pic. She'll be dealing with issues that Oliver passed over because his journey was a little different to becoming a superhero.
Really have no idea what is going on here, but Speedy, Black Canary, John Diggle and Oliver Queen (not suited up) appear to be on a stakeout in a very cool location.
This is the Team Arrow that was protecting Star City (so renamed in honor of Ray Palmer's vision of the city after his death) while the Arrow was gone. Things were going very well until they felt they could use a hand with the darhkness come their way by Damien Darhk.
I like the look of the nekkid mannequin in the background of this photo now that Oliver has donned the Green Arrow costume. It leaves it somewhat vulnerable, don't you think?
John Diggle and Oliver Queen come face to face. From the look on Diggle's, it's going to be slow going for these old friends to get back the trust and camaraderie they once shared, but it will certainly be worth it in the end.
Now that they're out in the open, they can old hands not only for encouragement when the going gets tough, but to show their affection for one another without worry. Awww. Isn't that sweet?
Felicity appears to be offering her boyfriend and soon to be Green Arrow some encouragement. Will it be easy for the two of them to pick up where they left off, as a part of Team Arrow, together as a couple and fitting into the old dynamic?
Felicity is back at the helm of the Team Arrow control board. While Black Canary, Speedy and Diggle were leading the charge in her and Oliver's absence, who do you think manned the board? How on earth did they manage without a point person? We'll find out!
A couple of Team Arrow members are seeking advice from the man himself. Is Oliver having a hard time deciding to put on the suit? Will his sister, looking absolutely amazing as Speedy, push him over the edge and into his new green look?
A lighter Oliver will return to crime fighting. It's probably a big decision for him to put the suit back on, but now he has his lady love with him, so hopefully it won't weigh him down as much as it has in the past.
Oliver: Felicity, wanna play a game? Felicity: What game are we playing? Oliver: We're playing the "reason you know so much about these ghosts is beause you've been helping the team behind my back" game.
Laurel: We need the Arrow. Oliver: The Arrow's dead. Laurel: We're hoping that's not the case. We're hoping that you can't change who you are in your bones.
