Welcome back, Arrowheads, for the last time! This short season has been one long goodbye for Oliver Queen, as he’s said goodbye to friends and family, all while preparing for the Crisis that would threaten the entire multiverse. Well, the Crisis has come and passed, and Ollie is dead, having created a new universe for all his loved ones that is slightly different than the one his extended family remembers. And while we have seen how this new universe has affected other heroes, we only know about the future of Star City, being at peace for decades after Ollie’s passing. But what about our present? What has been changed, and what is next for everyone who knows Oliver Queen now? Continue reading
ARROW Season 5×09, “What We Leave Behind” recap
8 DecWelcome back, Arrowheads! Team Arrow 2.0 is about to start the holidays with a big ass lump of coal in their Christmas stocking, being they got a traitor in their ranks. That traitor is Evelyn/Artemis, who either is still upset her parents died incidentally because of Team Arrow last season or that she’s learned Ollie murked a lot of guys over the years, but who can say. Millennials, am I right? She’s helping Prometheus get all kinds of dirt on her teammates, which can’t be good news for anyone. But who is Prometheus? And what does he have planned to give our heroes for this Winter break? Continue reading
ARROW Season 5×07, “Vigilante” recap
17 NovWelcome back, Arrowheads! Team Arrow 2.0 has had its share of growing pains this season, but as bad as that has been, new villain Prometheus has really been keeping them off guard. Ollie has been getting a bit more personal with reporter Susan Williams (who is totally investigating Ollie’s “stranded” years), Diggle is still a wanted man, and Quentin is blackout drinking and waking up with some of Prometheus’ throwing stars. So what could make things worse in Star City and for Team Arrow 2.0? Continue reading

ARROW Season 5×04, “Penance” recap
27 OctWelcome back, Arrowheads! Last we left John Diggle, his return to the military hit a sizable end when he was framed for a crime he did not commit. And add to that, he’s still feeling guilt over killing his corrupt baby brother, so he’s not gonna really put up much of a fight to prove his innocence. But Lyla would not like their daughter /son to grow up without a father, so she goes to Ollie to get help breaking Dig out. Will he help her? Obviously the answer is “probably”, but what about his new team and all that trouble with Tobias Church? And hey, what’s up with the Patrick Batman-esque D.A.? Some of those answers are coming up… Continue reading
ARROW Season 5×01, “Legacy” recap
6 OctWelcome back from summer break, Arrowheads! When we last left Team Arrow, it wasn’t really Team Arrow anymore. With Laurel dead and Damien Darhk killed, Diggle rejoined the military, Thea went off for some downtime, and Ollie…became mayor of Star City? Well considering the last mayor was a villainess who almost caused global Armageddon, the Star City council didn’t have many options. But what does this mean for the Green Arrow? What about the rest of the Team? Are we still going to have more flashbacks? How about we get this started by answering that last question first… Continue reading
