Really curious to see how Arrow exits the final series. The tv series that first aired on October 10, 2012, is currently in the middle of its 7th season. Though it is sad to see the green arrow putting away his arrows, fans can still look forward to the next DC crossover, “Crisis on Infinite Earths,” which will go down sometime during the 8th season, and I bet it will be epic!
