When Arrow returns at the beginning of next year there are of course going to have to be a few changes. Oliver Queen is presumed dead after a showdown with Ra's al Ghul and even if he is rescued and saved it may take some time for him to return to his role as the Arrow.

There is then the question of how will the show move on without it's title character. Showrunner Marc Guggenheim has stated that while Oliver is recovering that his partner Roy Harper (Colton Haynes) will step up in a very big way.
"One of the things I was very straight with Colton [Haynes] about is I don’t think we serviced his character quite as much as we would have liked in the first half of the season,” executive producer Marc Guggenheim says. “I’ll say the stuff that he’s got in episodes 10, 11, and 12, it’s pretty dang gangbusters.There’s one scene in episode 11 between him and John Barrowman that I think is some of his finest work on the show."

How do you feel about Arsenal stepping up into a more predominant role for a few episodes? Do you think it is time that Arsenal gets a few episodes in the spotlight?
