8 characters we really wanna see introduced on Arrow
Arrow has introduced some of Ollie's Rogue's Gallery, but we can think of a few more members of his supporting cast who deserve a turn in the spotlight.
When you think of Oliver Queen, there aren't always characters who immediately feel truly classic. But that's part of the beauty of Arrow -- there are lots of characters that can get a fresh coat of paint or just the chance at a new format. Some of these are no-brainers, but some might surprise you. So take a look at these eight characters who we think should appear on the CW's latest superhero soap.

Onomatopoeia
Nerd of the people, Kevin Smith, invented this villain specifically for the comic page, but we actually think this incredibly meta character could straddle the chasm between campy and scary very well on TV.
Great Frog/Drug Addiction
Not a character, technically, but Speedy's drug problem is infamous in the world of comics. Retelling the story of his band, Great Frog, could be a cool set-up and lead-in to how he gets hooked on drugs. Granted, they'll probably replace heroin with something less true to life.
Annie Green
In the comic, therapist Annie Green ended getting more help from Green Arrow than the other way around, but we think Ollie could do with some serious head shrinking every now and again.
Cheshire
We've already got Ollie's one true love on the show, so why not Speedy's? Plus it never hurts to have another bad girl/martial arts bad ass in the mix.
Brick
With so many other major villains featured, we're a little surprised Brick hasn't turned up yet? Maybe it's because he's got reddish, stony skin? Don't be bigoted against stone people, CW! This underworld kingpin is tough as nails and would make a great addition to Arrow's current Rogue's Gallery. A little villain in-fighting never hurt anybody -- except the villains, of course.
Clock King
There's nothing more evil than a guy who's a jerk about being on time. Take that to the extreme and you get Clock King. He might be a bit of a campy one-off villian for the purposes of television, but oh what a fun episode that would be.
Green Error/Funny-Arrow
Both these characters were essentially the same -- a clown pretending to be Green Arrow. We'd love to have a comic relief character who, when tragedy strikes, is forced to take on the responsibility of the hero.
Green Lantern
Well, duh. These two tell a great story -- one of rough and tumble beginnings that leads to them becoming the fast and best of friends. We couldn't imagine a better character to appear on Arrow.
