It looks like Arrow has signed up another comicbook villain in the form of Baron Reiter or Baron Blitzkrieg as he’s known, for season four.
Holby city actor Jimmy Akingbola (above) will be a recurring villain in the show’s flashback scenes, report THR, although there’s no word yet if he’ll be the leader of villainous organisation Shadowspire yet, though it seems likely.
In the comics they were dealers in illegal weapons, technology and intelligence – a sort of super-villain SPECTRE if you will.
We cannot wait for Arrow – and The Flash – to return!
Arrow season fourkicks off on October 7th

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
