Arrow: Easter Eggs and Things You Might Have Missed In "Second Chances"
Tonight's episode of Arrow was a lot of build-up, and while there were a couple of big payoffs at [...]
HUB CITY
Hub City, a fictional city in the DC Universe, is best known as the home to The Question, a self-taught urban shaman.
The last time we saw the city on Arrow was when Esrin Fortuna helped Oliver take on Damien Darhk...and of course, when Hub City started to show up in showrunner Marc Guggenheim's tweets this year, there was plenty of speculation that he was teasing The Question. Turns out, he was teasing the Black Canary!
prevnextBIG BELLY BURGER
Big Belly Burger, a fictional fast-food restaurant in the DC Universe, is the fast food of choice for people who are in hiding, in jail, or otherwise cut off from the world on The Flash.
Here, we saw Team Arrow hanging out there in Hub City while Felicity got it delivered to her in the Arrowcave during her side quest.
prevnextFAMILY SECRET
When Talia refers to her agelessness as a "family secret," it's the kind of cutesy clue that Nyssa used to drop in her early appearances, where she didn't directly name-drop Ra's al Ghul or the Lazarus Pit, but made references that were pretty clear to people in the know.
Back then, of course, we always wonderd whether Ra's would ever make an appearance. Now, he's come and gone, and we know that this kind of vague dialogue is mostly to keep continuity tidy so that Oliver doesn't realize exactly who he's dealing with when Ra's and Nyssa come in later.
prevnextTHE FLASH & CAPTAIN SINGH
In what Marc Guggenheim tweeted was the quickest crossover Arrow has ever done with The Flash, we got to see Barry speed (in costume) into his boss's office to vouch for Green Arrow.
What's nice to see is Captain Singh, Barry's boss, who hasn't been seen much this season. It felt a bit like last night, when the long-absent Miss Tessmacher from Supergirl had a quick cameo on The Flash.

Did anybody else notice that the bad guy is the same guy that played the dark archer from Smallville and he got shot in the same place as he did an Smallville
SONUS
The guy who Canary was hunting? A familiar face, too.
Sean Sonus, alias Discord is a sonic villain who fights Green Arrow and Black Canary.
He first appeared in Green Arrow and Black Canary #15, and was co-created by Arrow EP Andrew Kreisberg and artist Mike Norton.
prevnextDINAH DRAKE
We already discussed this one at length, but the name "Dinah Drake" is actually the name of the original/Earth-2 Black Canary, who existed in the comics before Dinah Lance did.
