Another day, another fresh look at Rutina Wesley in her role as Liza Warner, a member of the anti-vigilante task force who was known in the comics as "Lady Cop."

That task force will have its work cut out for it, as the season will start with yet another marked increase in vigilante activity in and around Starling.

This time, our best-yet look at Wesley's character comes along with a heap of praise for the actress from director Lexi Alexander (Punisher War Zone), who takes on an episode of the series this season.

In the comics, Warner was the only survivor of the "Killer-in-Boots", who murdered Warner's college roommates. The event made her decide to join the police. She stopped several criminals, always driven by a desire to catch the killer who had changed the course of her life.

Warner was later promoted to Chief of Police in Ivy Town, and frequently assisted onetime Atom Ryan Choi...but since she's not exactly poised to "help" superheroes just yet, it doesn't necessarily stand to reason that she'll be buddy-buddy with Ray Palmer on DC's Legends of Tomorrow anytime soon.

Arrow returns on October 7, airing new episodes Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
