After the powerful and moving ending of Season 1, Arrow hits back even harder with Season 2 with the arrival of new vigilantes and villains.
Sara Lance is back from the dead as the kick ass Canary, bringing with her the big reveal of the League of Assassins and the Heir of the Demon.
Who elese is back?.... Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman), who everyone believes to be dead looks very much alive during fight sequences.
The story has several plots: Sara's return, Brother Blood and the Mirakuru and the biggest plot of the series, the revenge of Slade Wilson and his taking up the mantle of Deathstroke.
The characters are all just brillaintly acted, with Canary stealing many of the scenes she is in with a darker tone that even puts Oliver's brooding in the show to shame. But for me the most exciting part of the series was the reveal of the Suicide Squad and it's one shadowy member that we can only hear.... None other than Batman's own Harley Quinn!
Quinn, Canary, a bunch of killer assassins and the return of the Count to his old self as the newly christened Count Vertigo, Arrow is truly making it's name as one of the best adaptaions from comics to tv in this decade.
Series 2 also acts as a gateway to the Flash tv series and brings the fantastic Flash cast to Arrow and vise-versa.
