When Tobias Church (guest star Chad L. Coleman) captures and tortures one of Oliver’s new recruits, Oliver must turn to an old friend, Christopher Chance (guest star Wil Traval) AKA the Human Target, for help.
That said, it’s unclear whether Chance will be more than a one-off episode addition to this season of Arrow.
However, the Human Target character was originally inspired by a DC Comics creation of the same name whose origins were credited to Len Wein and Carmine Infantino.
In the meantime, Arrow season 5 has its own story to tell and a mission statement of getting back to the vigilante action roots that defined the series’ early success.
