We have only just met Echo Kellum's Curtis Holt, but he's already on the way to becoming a rather popular character. A bit like a female Felicity, he's smart, funny, and very awkward. Given he's just been introduced, would the show really kill him off a few months later, and would Ollie be so upset about it? Maybe and maybe. The show killed off Tommy Merlyn back in Season 1, which remains one of the most shocking moments of the show even now, and he was an extremely popular character. So it'd be a shock, but they do have previous. And while he and Ollie may not know each other now, who's to say in six months time they won't have become rather close. Another thing to consider with this possibility is that Holt is set to become the superpowered Mr Terrific at some point. That means he'll be fighting crime, potentially bringing him into conflict with the person responsible for this. He's not the obvious choice at this stage, but that may change in the coming months.
NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far.
A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
