There are many different versions of the Royal Flush Gang in DCU. This episode showed that the writers were not afraid of changing the background of the known DCU characters to work better in the “realistic” world they had created for Arrow. The writers have done a great job of changing some other characters to suit the needs of the story. Felicity is a big example not even found in the main DCU in the comics and no where near the original Green Arrow yet her character is now full time and looks like she is going to stick around. The writers also create unique characters for the show, best example would have to be the other third of the dynamic trio John Diggle. Diggle is a completely for the show created character and yet the fans can’t see Oliver surviving his first year back to Starling City with out him. *SPOILERS* I am wondering how close to comic Summer Glau’s character Isabel Rochev is going to be? Is she the mysterious women in season 1, Fryer’s boss, or could she be the one Moira knew Robert was seeing behind her back? The introduction of her character creates more questions then answers but that is of course the purpose of sizzle reels right?
