Thank you for the honor.”

When Arrow premiered in 2012, it was the only superhero show on the network at the time. The show became an instant hit and launched the Arrowverse on the network that now includes The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Black Lightning, and Batwoman. Arrow’s impact is immeasurable. Arrow may be ending but the journey is far from over. The spinoff Green Arrow and the Canaries, focusing on Mia, Laurel, and Dinah, got its backdoor pilot as the penultimate episode of Arrow’s final season. The show hasn’t been officially picked up yet, but it’s almost a sure thing.
