Andrew Dunbar has been cast in Arrow as DC comics’ Firefly, villain of Batman.

Arrow will be adding Batman villain Firefly in the tenth episode, and Andrew Dunbar will be playing the part.

For those unfamiliar with the Firefly character, or those who are wondering how he will be represented in Arrow, a firefighter named Garfield Lynns was burned three years prior to the current Arrow time. Lynns never recovered mentally or physically and he transformed into a villain. similar to an actual firefly, Firefly uses lighting effects and optical illusions.

Thanks, EW.

TV Guide spoke to Steven Amell about why nobody has made the connection between the return of Oliver and the emergence of Arrow:

It’s like, “Hey, he’s shown up to Starling City right at the same time that the vigilante has. How long do they expect us to suspend disbelief?” I think that we do a good job of presenting questions and that’s an obvious one and it’s not going to take us too long to figure that out.
