Thanks to the guys over at Latino-Review, we now know that Grant Gustin is one of the top three actors that the CW are considering for the role of Barry Allen/The Flash in Arrow. It's apparently now down to him and (as we heard earlier today) Parkland's Matt Barr and little-known James Mackay. Gustin is 23 years old and is best known for starring in 90210 and Glee, although Barr is arguably the most suitable choice for the character so far mentioned. He also has the right sort of physique that the network so prominently feature on their promos...what do you guys think?

The Hollywood Reporter confirms that it will be Grant Gustin who brings Barry Allen to life in the second season of Arrow and a potential spin-off of his own. "I?m unbelievably excited," the Glee actor told the site. "I?ve been a lifelong fan of DC Comics, so I can?t be more honored and can?t wait to get started." The plan for the character to appear in three episode of Arrow remains the same, with his final appearance planned as a back door pilot of his own series. However, how exactly will the grounded CW series deal with the introduction of the super speedster? "Part of the fun for the audience is to see how we view our Arrow take on the Flash legacy," Andrew Kreisberg said. "Some of it will feel very familiar to DC Comics, some of it hopefully will feel different, fresh and exciting. The same way we approached Arrow is the same way we're approaching Barry. There will be extraordinary events in the world and the characters will react in the same way" Barry Allen is described as being a Central City assistant police forensic investigator who comes to Starling City to look into a series of unexplained robberies which he believes may be connected to his tragic past. As a comic book fanboy, Allen is apparently obsessed with Arrow and ends up working with Oliver and Felicity before crossing paths with the vigilante.

Arrow co-creator Andrew Kreisberg has revealed what fans can expect from the show's version of the Black Canary.

The DC Comics heroine will feature in the TV drama's second season, portrayed by Mad Men actress Caity Lotz.

"She's a new player in town," Kreisberg told Entertainment Weekly. "A vigilante who avenges wronged women.

"[she] seems to have a fixation on the Arrow (Stephen Amell) and our team is trying to figure out why."

The original version of Black Canary - created by Robert Kanigher and Carmine Infantino - made her comics debut in August 1947 in Flash Comics #86.

Arrow will also introduce costumed superhero The Flash in its new season, with Glee star Grant Gustin playing the Scarlet Speedster.

The series returns to The CW on October 9, with Sky1 airing season two in the UK at a later date.

Copycat superheroes? Say it ain't so!

http://www.croatiantimes.com/news/Around_the_World/2013-05-08/33319/Cops_Hunt_Explosive_Arrow_Firing_Superhero_Copycat

German police are hunting a bowman who has been impersonating Marvel action hero Hawkeye by creating explosive arrows that in at least one case caused a massive fire that needed more than a dozen firemen to extinguish.

A police spokesman said: "Arrows are not toys, and especially arrows that have been rigged up to explode are something that we treat very seriously."

Dylan Neal To Play 'Amazo' Creator 'Dr. Anthony Ivo' In Season Two Of ARROW

Screen Crush have revealed that the latest DC comic book character to be brought to life on the small screen in Arrow will be 'Dr. Anthony Ivo'. Dylan Neal (whose credits include Cedar Cove, Human Target and Smallville) has been chosen to play him. However, in his first appearance - the fifth episode which is entitled "League of Assassins" - he will appear in Oliver's island flashbacks rather than Starling City. As this is set to be a four episode arc though, it's certainly likely that we'll see him return to make Ollie's life difficult further down the line as the site mentions that the door is open for recurring appearances. They describe Arrow's take on the villain as, " a brutal but ruthless scientist who will stop at nothing to unearth a breakthrough that dates back to the latter days of World War II." Ivo is also the creator of the android 'Amazo'.

As speculated at this summer?s San Diego Comic-Con ? given the talent RSVP list for the sophomore superhero drama?s panel discussion ? John Barrowman is set to reprise his role as Malcolm Merlyn aka The Dark Archer sometime during Season 2, TVLine can confirm.

 

A spokesperson for The CW would not say in what form Malcolm, who in the finale was last seen having an arrow thrust through his chest by The Hood, will resurface ? in a dream (OK, nightmare) sequence, flashback, as a ?ghost? or in the big, bad flesh ? but TVLine hears the character will appear in at least two episodes.

      No, size is not the only selling point. I did not even remotely say that. Your claim was that "building your own will be faster and cheaper". This is false. You cannot build something close to that form factor with off-the-shelf parts. You can build a Mini-ITX PC and pay more, or something larger and pay less. But these are different market segments. It's apples and oranges.

      There is a default resolution setting in Settings > Display that can be changed with a click. You can also change the settings on a per-game basis. No CLI needed. Also, Steam has countless games that are not "[perpetual] alpha/beta games", so no need for the straw man. Plus you can use other stores as well. And console games (e.g. PS5) cost a fortune, which itself more than negates the price subsidy on the system, unless you plan on exclusively playing 1 or 2 games. It's true that you shouldn't buy a system that doesn't support the game(s) you want to play, but I think that's kinda obvious, and applies to every console as well as PC. I don't game in the living room and have no need of a Steam Machine, but there is a clear market segment that would find it useful.

RSS Guard 5.2.0 changelog: Added: Feed auto-fetch can now also be delayed while Feral GameMode is active on Linux and startup auto-fetch is skipped when GameMode is already active. (#2265) WebEngine builds can now use RSS Guard generated proxy auto-config (PAC) rules so article/web browsing follows per-account and per-feed proxy settings more closely. (#2273) Generated PAC rules now also cover related subdomains and use Public Suffix List data, so feeds such as feeds.bbc.co.uk can also proxy resources from images.bbc.co.uk. (#2273) Standard feeds can now define extra proxy domains, useful when article images, stylesheets or other page resources are loaded from a CDN or another domain that should use the same feed proxy. (#2273) RSS Guard now asks for proxy credentials when a WebEngine page needs proxy authentication and can fill credentials from the current feed proxy when available. (#2273) Network settings again include an option to ignore all cookies, which clears stored cookies and prevents new cookies from being accepted. Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now individually ignore cookies while downloading feed data. Stored cookies can now be deleted from the Tools menu. Custom skin colors can now override the feed list article count color separately from feed titles, including a separate highlighted color. (#2275) Settings dialog can now search across available settings and highlight matching controls. (#1754) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now optionally be reported as broken when they are valid but contain no articles. (#2039) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now override the application-wide feed connection timeout per feed. (#1023) Tray icon can now use a custom background color and unread-count text color, with an option to reuse the generated icon as the application icon. (#1973) Support for more benevolent parsing of Gemlog entries (#2295). Article list can now show when an article was received by RSS Guard. (#947) Feed deep discovery now actually scrapes all links found in the website and checks if they are feeds or not. This greatly enhances usability of the deep discovery mode and discovers many more feeds than before. (#2306) Search boxes now show a small dot when the feed or article list is hiding some items because of active filtering. (#873) Articles now have a shortcut-assignable action to open the homepage of the feed they belong to. (#2060) Fixed: Parallel feed updates no longer crash when multiple update results are processed at the same time. (64cf521) Links in WebEngine articles opened from feeds such as Kill the Newsletter now open correctly instead of being swallowed by the embedded page. (#2272) Relative article URLs resolution was kinda broken. (#2282) Clicking article URL did not work when the URL had "fragment" set. (#2293) The default proxy setting now uses Qt/system default proxy behavior instead of forcing no proxy. (e0263ad) WebEngine article loading now keeps the current feed context, so feed-specific proxy credentials remain available while the article page loads.
