‘Arrow’ 5.01 “Legacy” Easter Eggs

5. Prometheus

Prometheus. The big bad teased for the season. It looked like we might have had to wait until next week for to see him in action, but at the tail end of the episode we got our first look as he shot a man through the heart. OK, we’re paying attention. Prometheus was a villain who was first published for a Blue Beetle book in 1986. but didn’t gain any real notoriety until Grant Morrison’s reinvention of the character in 1998’s New Year’s Evil: Prometheus. This version of the character featured combat abilities of the highest level along with a near genius-level intellect. No word on how smart Arrow‘s version is, but he seems to have archery down pretty good.
