A few days ago, "Arrow" has allowed fans to have a peek of the much anticipated The Atom costume of Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh) who was introduced in the third season premiere.
Ray Palmer has appeared several times in the season, however, what fans want is to see him in action wearing his costume. Well, you will see The Atom two weeks from now and according to "Arrow" season 3 episode guides released, he will share the spotlight with Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) and Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman).

The synopsis for the 15th episode titled "Nanda Parbat" has been released and it will feature more of Routh's character. Read the official "Arrow" season 3 episode guide below:
"Malcolm (John Barrowman) is captured by Ra's al Ghul (guest star Matt Nable) and taken to Nanda Parbat. Because of his love for Thea (Willa Holland), Oliver (Stephen Amell) considers saving Merlyn. Ray (Brandon Routh) is obsessed with finishing his Atom suit so he can save the city but Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) fears he is heading down the same path as Oliver (Stephen Amell) and tries to pull him out of the lab."

Aside from "Arrow" season 3 episode 15, Ray Palmer in full costume will also be seen in the show's spin-off series "The Flash." Along with Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), the billionaire bachelor will travel to Central City to ask help from Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) regarding his The Atom costume. This crossover will happen on the 18th episode of "The Flash" titled "All-Star Team Up."
"Ray needs a little help with his [A.T.O.M.] suit, and who better than Felicity's high-tech guys at STAR Labs? It happens to come at a particularly bad moment for Barry. That's partially why we did it. The first episode with Felicity [Episode 4, "Going Rogue"], she really came along at a time when her experience in being part of a crime-fighting team definitely helped Barry overcome what he was facing that week. Similarly, when she comes, he's having a crisis of conscience that in some ways, only somebody like she can help him through."
