We’ve long known Mr. Terrific, Wild Dog, Ragman and Artemis were Green Arrow’s new recruits, but we’ve yet to see them all in one place. This latest Arrow Season 5 teaser takes care of that. Unfortunately it’s nothing substantial, but it sure is better than continuously pausing a trailer in search of a mystery face. With Diggle overseas and Thea working a day job, it’s time to officially meet Oliver’s new team:
Meet Team Arrow 2.0 before the season premiere of #Arrow Wednesday, October 5 on The CW. https://t.co/EdWiDnwtBN

Artemis is really following in the footsteps of the Black Canary. Her supersonic Canary Cry is no joke. Artemis goes full-force in the middle of a restaurant, causing glass to shatter everywhere. There’s no new footage of Wild Dog. To my dismay, it’s the same shot we got in the trailer last week of him running down the street. However, this is our first look at Ragman unmasked. Joe Dinicol pulls down the hood right around the five-second mark. We don’t see Mr. Terrific suited up, just the same shot of him falling down the salmon ladder.
Star City’s new District Attorney, Adrian Chase, is still a complete mystery. Whether his alter ego, Vigilante, will be a friend or foe of Team Arrow 2.0 remains to be seen. Neither did the teaser show any sign of the season’s big bad, Prometheus. This may be because Oliver will have his hands full with Chad L Coleman’s villain, Tobias Church, who plans to bring all of Star City’s worst criminals together to take down the Green Arrow at the beginning of Season 5. We’ll meet both villains in the premiere episode, ‘Legacy,’ on Oct. 5.
