I think it was inevitable that he would start using a mask eventually. Now if we could get him to grow out that goatee some more, lol.
Makes more sense for him to use a eye mask thing then that green makeup he smears around his eyes now. Now it is believable that he can switch from Green Arrow to Ollie in a few minutes. I think there was a time on the show he did it but I couldn't buy it since he would have had to wash all the green eye makeup off in addition to his outfit. Not in the short amount of time it showed.
Glad to hear he is getting a mask too. I'm surprised by how close some get to him and don't realize who he is. I'd like to see Roy get tired of being the Arrows call boy and start to go rogue,so Ollie is forced to bring him in and train him. Then again maybe Ollie is testing him. That's what I like about this show,not knowing any history on Green arrow.Everything is a surprise to me.
Maybe because now his mind is preoccupied with the fact that Sara, his presumed-dead younger daughter, is alive and evading the League of Assassins.
He just found that out. Season 1 I coulda seen him not knowing.But he knows felicity and Roy are working with him now. He just needs to put it together and see the common factor. They both have something to do with Oillie and never mind the fact he damn near shadows laurel should give him a basic idea. Then again,i don't read the comics.So I don't know how hard he tries to keep his secret ID from people.
Actually for a long time in the Mike Grell comics, he had no secret ID, he was just the neighborhood weirdo.(course by then he wasn't rich either) Cops would just show up and ask him for help. He was even wanted for a while. And in the Kevin Smith run someone figured out his secret Id based on his goatee alone.
Either the mask or the make up it's pretty obvious who he is. Unless it's a spider-man mask they really don't conceal your identity too well.
Nyssa Al Ghul, Not Talia, Headed For Arrow, To Be Played By Spartacus Actress Katrina Law - Bleeding Cool Comic Book, Movies and TV News and Rumors
Seems like the ARROW folks certainly like actors from Spartacus... Slade, Waller, and now Al Ghul chicky....well, they know how to fight for sure.
I was expecting Talia, but I do like the idea of them going with a lesser known character. Should be interesting to see another one of his children in action. That said, I'm vastly more interested to see who they cast as the big RAG himself.
Well she was the reason Talia later went crazy[Kept killing her and resurrecting her in a Lazurus pit.] she was never the same after, plus she tried to shoot Superman with kryptonite bullets. Her origin is as bad or Worse than Magnieto when it comes to time with Nazi's. This all happened in the mini Batman Death and the maidens. EDIT: Went back and read issues[Been awhile] This could be a big spoiler so read at your own risk Spoiler She killed Ra's and became the new Demon's head(till he came back later) But depending on how they set this up she could be called the new Ras' Al Ghul. Might be a way not to confuse average viewers of the Noland films
I've thought about it. I definitely want Ollie, but I'm not sure I want the "Deathstroke" figure unless we see Slade in that gettup. Till then it's just Wintergreen...
True, but we haven't seen him in the entire outfit, and I'm not convinced that, when he makes the inevitable transition from allie to villain, that the outfit he wears won't be altered. Might sound stupid/paranoid, but I don't want to be stuck with a "Deathstroke" figure that is just going to make me think of Wintergreen...
The mask is a big improvement, but I was actually hoping he'd be using the goggles from series 1. Probably because I prefer the look of N52 Ollie. I was never a fan of the Errol Flynn goatee either.
