"Corto Maltese"

OLIVER SEARCHES FOR THEA IN CORTO MALTESE WHILE DIGGLE TRACKS A.R.G.U.S. AGENT MARK SHAW - Oliver (Stephen Amell) decides it's time for Thea (Willa Holland) to come back to Starling City, so he packs for Corto Maltese, where Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) has traced Thea's whereabouts. Lyla (guest star Audrey Marie Anderson) asks Diggle (David Ramsey) to go with Oliver because one of her field operatives, Mark Shaw (guest star David Cubitt), has gone dark in Corto Maltese and she'd like him to look into it. Feeling responsible for Thea's departure, Roy (Colton Haynes) joins Oliver and Diggle on their journey. Shaw double-crosses Diggle, putting numerous A.R.G.U.S. agents, including Lyla, at risk. Meanwhile, Laurel (Katie Cassidy) meets Ted Grant (J.R. Ramirez), and Felicity adjusts to her new job.

Stephen Surjik directed the episode written by Erik Oleson & Beth Schwartz (#303).

Here are the promo pics for ep 3x03:

Great episode, I loved seeing the Thea flashback/training, also I liked Laurel beginning her training and Felicity setting up her trip to Flash next week.

yeah I think they are doing a good job with laurel, showing her start on path to be a crime fighter, better than thea, who in 2
eps is now a ninja! I know more time passed but still seems like it was too quick.

And the guy who took over queen seems like he may be a bad guy?

NO, he is a good guy, he eventually becomes The Atom, although I don't think he will become him on Arrow.

Really? Well I saw him looking at the weapons diagrams and he seemed like he was being devious.

So if they intro Atom, this could become the "DC" network LOL
Afte flash ratings and Arrow, I can see where they might want to do some more DC comic characters.
