Alright so I'm sure most everyone here has already watched the latest episode of Arrow and has seen where the end of the episode was to lead us all to believe that Quinton Lance is the series big bad this season known as Prometheus. First off I'm Going to go over why this could be the case but more then likely is not. Then I am going to give some theories as to who Prometheus could end up being.
Quinton Lance: Sure he could have some resentment for Oliver and in fact at one point in time DID think of Oliver as a Serial Killer. After the death of Laurel which happened last season it is entirely possible that a mental breakdown could have caused him to take on the Prometheus Persona, but aside from these points nothing else really makes sense. For one how did he all of a sudden get great at shooting a bow, ninja stars, and as we seen against Artemis he had good hand to hand combat skills. Lance has never really given us a reason to believe that he could do any of these things.
Now for the theories on who could be Prometheus. And i want to begin this with quoting the producers who said Prometheus is a villain of Oliver's own creating from season one.
#1 Tommy Merlin: HEAR ME OUT, now alot of people are gonna go ahead and attribute this to the fact that we all want to see tommy back, but this theory has some points alot of people wont think about. 1st of all Barry Allen created an alternate timeline and it messed with Arrow, the producers have already confirmed that what Barry did will affect Arrow. I want you to think about some things real fast, Neither Malcolm or Tommy have even been mentioned at all, even in passing. not one bit. So we cant even fully say that Tommy is in fact dead in this timeline, and still doesnt mean that malcolm didnt find some way to bring him back. Now you may ask, well why would Tommy be after Oliver?? well they are alluding to whoever Prometheus is, is somehow blaming Oliver for something and also calling him a serial killer. Before Tommy died he was somewhat disappointed in oliver for the oliver was handling his "list". They never fully reconciled before Tommys death.. Now you might be saying well, yeah but why would he be trying to go after Ollie though other then that, Well we are already being lead to believe that Lance is Prometheus, and Lance maybe blames Oliver for what???? BOOM Laurels Death last season.. Laurel and Tommy were very much in love, Maybe he was brought back before the lazarus pit was destroyed, maybe he went crazy to an extent which is why Malcolm didnt want to bring Thea back that way. He maybe had already experienced it himself. And as for the scheduling conflict between Collin Donell with chicago med and arrow, Prometheus wears a mask and the actor playing him doesnt have to be Collin Donell unti hell the very last episode if they wanted to wait for the reveal, meaning he only has to be available for 1 day of filming.
#2 Walter Steel: Who knew about the list, Who's wife was murdered as a result of what Oliver brought to star city, who has been missing for a long time?? this one is a long shot but since his guest spot on Limitless is now over, could be a shocking revelation.
#3 Diggle: This would me a massive blow but could be possible. They have already explained that Flashpoint affected Diggle, he already proved to be losing his mind a bit with him seeing Deadshot in his jail cell. Now there is some timing issues with him being at war and then being in jail, but with some clever timeline play it could still be possible for them to give us an explanation.
#4: Billy Malone: this would be a ball dropper for sure, He's a new character to us, and really wouldn't give us much shock value even if he does have a sad back story.
what do you guys think?
