Yesterday gave us some spiffy new 'Arrow' season 3 casting in the form of 'Spartacus' vet Nick Tarabay's Captain Boomerang, but why stop there? The CW DC drama has released its full set of premiere photos from October 8 debut "The Calm," introducing our new Ray Palmer, Vertigo, and Roy's Arsenal costume before the storm of season 3 finally hits!

Adding to the ranks of the original four 'Arrow' season 3 photos, our newest look at "The Calm" shows off a few better shots of Colton Haynes new "Arsenal" costume, as Roy Harper takes a more central role in Oliver's superheroism outfit. Elsewhere, Peter Stormare puts in his first appearance as the new Count Vertigo, and Brandon Routh fills out a suit (as Brandon Routh is wont to do) as DC's Ray Palmer / The Atom.

Meanwhile, here's how The CW describes 'Arrow' season 3:

In the aftermath of victory, Season Three opens with Arrow now a hero to the citizens of Starling. Crime is down, people feel safer, and Captain Lance even calls off the Anti-Vigilante Task Force. Basking in his success, Oliver believes he can finally have a private life and asks Felicity out on a date. But the second Oliver takes his eye off the ball, a deadly villain reappears in Starling, forcing Oliver to realize that he can never be Oliver Queen – not as long as the city needs The Arrow.

October 8 seems criminally far away, but in the meantime check out the latest 'Arrow' season 3 photos below, and tell us what you want to see when "The Calm" precedes the storm next month!
