Between them, The CW’s pair of ARROW and THE FLASH are amassing quite the impressive collection of familiar DC faces. Now comes word from EW that George ‘Digger’ Harkness, aka Captain Boomerang, is to be added to the mix, to be played by SPARTACUS’ Nick Tarabay.

The character of Captain Boomerang, generally seen as a C-list villain who mainly tackles The Flash, first appeared back in 1960’s THE FLASH #117, created by John Broome and Carmine Infantino. With no superpowers to speak of, Captain Boomerang’s main weapon of choice is, if you hadn’t guessed already, simply a boomerang. Whilst he will be first going up against the Emerald Archer in Episode 7 of ARROW’s upcoming Season 3, the villain will also be returning for Episode 8… which we know is to be a two-hour crossover event between both ARROW and THE FLASH.

ARROW returns to The CW on October 8th, with a UK return set to follow shortly after.
