but to my understanding speedy doesnt have the super powers in the comics? want to see how they play it out, might be hard for arrow to mentor speedy when he can slap oliver across the room.
While he'll be stronger it's not like Roy has the training of slade. I mean grundy did beat Oliver up a lot Oliver still found a way to beat him. The 3rd fight lol. But even in the comics Roy gets sorta fed up being the sidekick so it'll play out like normal
True. And I think Roy getting the serum is just a plot device at this point and really might just lead to the "junkie" storyline. And I guess when the time comes, he won't be Speedy. I'm assuming he'd go by Red Arrow or Arsenal.
What got me curious about this episode though is the pace that the island flashbacks are going. I've read an interview before where the producers said the island flashbacks would stretch for 5 seasons. And now that Slade has been revealed to be alive in the present day, and Shado being dead, I'm wondering what other stuff they would eventually encounter in the island.
