DC's Legends Of Tomorrow Season 1: 8 Ups And 5 Downs From 'Progeny'

5. Sara Lance, Assassin

Sure, we’ve seen Sara Lance regularly putting her League of Assassins training to good use in hand-to-hand combat, but we’ve rarely been given a glimpse at the more assassin side of this character.

After all, whether it’s as (Black) Canary or White Canary, it’s still considered that Sara is one of deadliest assassins of The CW’s DC world. The problem is, we rarely get to see her use her full skillset in either Arrow or Legends of Tomorrow.

In Progeny, we at least got to see Sara’s marksman skills showcased as she took a shot (and hit) one of Per Degaton’s guards. Going forward, can we see more weapons put into Sara’s arsenal than just her trusty bo-staff, please? Thanks.
