However, as made clear in the recent promo of “Arrow” Season 5, it is also possible that the Earth-2 Laurel Lance has escaped from the STAR Labs’ underground prison.
But the question is, will she remain bad in the Arrow universe? Or will she take this opportunity to redeem herself and become a hero similar to Captain Cold on “The Flash” and “Legends of Tomorrow,” who sacrificed himself to save his friends?
Other sources say killing off the Earth-1 Laurel Lance is a good move to introduce an edgier and stronger version of the character.
The story seems to steer the character similar to what was indicated in the comic books where Laurel Lance is a meta-human who uses her power and not gadgets.
Speaking of the comic book version, sources also say that Oliver Queen and Earth-2 Laurel Lance could possibly start off a romance as aligned to their original history ever since the Green Arrow has been brought to the small screen.
For many people, the relationship between Felicity Smoak and Oliver Queen is not really quite established despite most fans believing that they are meant to be together.
At this point, it may be a good idea for viewers to believe that the Black Siren can eventually become the Black Canary in “Arrow.”
