If you are excited to see the Flash Arrow crossover episodes, there’s nothing you can do but wait. If you don’t want to miss anything, or miss the episodes themselves, check this list of the things you need to know about the much anticipated event.
First things first. The Flash Arrow Crossover Episode will take place on the eighth episode of both shows. For Arrow, it will be titled “Brave and the Bold” while the other show has it called “Flash vs Arrow.” Both series are now in their second episode so excluding any road blocks, the crossover will happen six weeks from now.
Another thing you need to know about the Flash Arrow crossover episodes is that it might feature villains that the Scarlett Speedsters and archer in green battled in the comics. One of which is Spartacus alum Nick Tarabay’s Captain Boomerang who was introduced on TV as Arrow villain but was originally a the Flash opponent. Another possible villain to possibly tangle with the two superheroes is Robert Knepper’s Clock King who appeared in one episode of Arrow but is slated to appear for more episodes in the Flash.
Two words: JUSTICE LEAGUE. At the Fan Expo 2014 in Canada, Stephen Amell teased that the Flash Arrow Crossover Episodes could be something that will start Justice League on TV.
“We are creating a Justice League on TV for us. I don't think there is a logistical reality to us participating in the feature side. That being said, I never wanted to have to feel like the show was justified, just because we participated in the movie. I don't think my character would participate on the cinematic side. What's that saying? Is it six seasons and a movie? Our show right now has me, Arsenal, Flash. There's going to be Firestorm and Atom. The Justice League elements of it are very present on our shows ['Arrow' and 'The Flash'] already."
