20 DC Characters Who Could Yet Appear In Arrow And The Flash

11. Cheshire

Of all of the names on this list, Cheshire is one who would feel the most at home by slotting right into Arrow.

This is a character who is a popular villain of both Black Canary and Arsenal. Granted, Arsenal has now seemingly left Arrow for the time being - Colton Haynes will not be returning for Season 4 of Arrow - but Laurel Lance’s Black Canary is still around and ready for action.

Cheshire is an assassin-cum-terrorist who is an expert in hand-to-hand combat and even laces lots of her weapons in various types of poison.

Given how this is a character who has no superpowers and no otherworldly abilities, plus with the ties to Black Canary, you’d have to think that she would be a perfect fit for an appearance in Season 4 of Arrow.
