AND welcome back, Arrowheads! Last season saw a lot of drama happen, as Oliver Queen became the new mayor of Star City. I mean, there was drama regarding budget plans, gun control, how to revitalize the city, and…what else? Oh yeah, a maniac called Prometheus, hiding in Ollie’s own midst as District Attorney Adrian Chase, was waging a physical and psychological vendetta against Ollie and Team Arrow. This lead to a big showdown between Team Arrow and Prometheus on the island of Lian Yu, and Ollie saving his son. Of course, this doesn’t save the Team, his friends, and his baby momma as Prometheus kills himself, setting off hundreds of bombs on the island’s surface! So who survived this mess? Read on…
ARROW Season 5×16, “Checkmate” recap
16 MarWelcome back, Arrowheads! Oliver and company had their fill of bad guy Prometheus, and so far, have no clue who this guy is. What they don’t know is our Big Bad for the season is Star City’s own District Attorney, Adrian Chase! This helpful yet mildly unstable public servant has a beef with Ollie, and may have another connection to Ollie’s past: being trained by the woman who helped him become the Hood, Talia Al Ghul! Meantime, Felicity is getting in deeper with the computer hacking group HELIX, and Ollie’s current girlfriend, Susan, may have just gotten herself in trouble with Adrian. Let’s see how Ollie reacts to discovering his new buddy is his new bad guy… Continue reading
ARROW Season 5×15, “Fighting Fire With Fire” recap
2 MarWelcome back, Arrowheads! So we’ve had this whole Prometheus stuff hanging over this season, and now, it looks like Prometheus just launched another wave of pain against Oliver Queen. Besides leaking that hidden autopsy report on Billy to the police, our baddie also leaked it to the press, which could lead to the end of Ollie’s term as mayor of Star City! Also, Thea’s starting to remind Ollie of Mama Queen (and not in the best way, since Thea pretty much destroyed Susan’s career) and Felicity is really liking all that info she got from the mysterious Helix. And with that crazy Vigilante guy running around, things can only get worse. Continue reading
ARROW Season 5×14, “The Sin-Eater” recap
23 FebWelcome back, Arrowheads! There’s not much to recap from last week’s “let’s talk about gun control” special episode, besides Thea’s back in town. But we still got the Prometheus problem to worry about, and our Team thinks they found his in-hiding mom. Then you got that whole thing with Ollie and Adrian hiding the details of Billy’s murder from the Anti Crime Unit, because its hard to explain why the Green Arrow accidentally killed a cop (but read ahead for that to actually happen). And even with that, there’s trouble brewing with Ollie’s new reporter girlfriend, Susan, finally piecing together he’s the Green Arrow. But before we get to all of that… Continue reading

So lets just get into this issue-centric episode… Continue reading
ARROW Season 5×10, “Who Are You?” recap
26 JanWelcome back from Winter hiatus, Arrowheads! When we left Team Arrow last year, things were not so rosy for them. Quentin went into rehab, Curtis is estranged from his hubby, Evelyn turned on them to side with Prometheus, Diggle got busted by the military, and Prometheus tricked Ollie into killing Felicity’s cop boyfriend! As if things couldn’t get worse, a familiar face appears in the Arrow HQ: Laurel Lance! The DEAD Laurel Lance! What is going on there? Let’s hold on that for a second and focus on another big reveal that happens this episode… Continue reading
