Will there be a new Black Canary?
Come Wednesday, Team Arrow will have some brand new faces.
502 is very much about reconciling the difference.

To a certain extent, [legacy is] an element of every episode, Guggenheim says.
Sometimes thats really overt and in your face, and other times its very subtle.
In many ways, its a question of: Can Oliver grow past his past?
Oliver thinks every time hes developed or moved forward, he just hasnt been able to.
So, will there be a new Black Canary?
Totally possible, Guggenheim hedges.
I can definitely say not in the short term, and not Felicity [Emily Bett Rickards].
Various people have asked me, Would you make Felicity Black Canary?
My answer is that I wouldnt make Felicity a masked superhero of any stripe.
I will say that Prometheus is basically all about taking down the Green Arrow, Guggenheim says.
In fact, youll see in 502 a pretty strong statement to that affect.
Hes not out for world domination or even to control the city, his target is the Green Arrow.
Hell make that pretty clear by the end of 502.
Tobias is basically going to be our antagonist for the first chapter of season 5, Guggenheim says.
We can do a recurring jot down of villain.
I would say Tobias is very much in that mold.
Hes got a plan that youll find out a little bit more about each week.
Itll build to a climax that ends the first chapter of season 5.
Arrowairs Wednesdays at 8 p.m.
