Chin Han as Mr Lau in The Dark Knight

For a minute, I forgot I was watching Arrow and thought I was watching The Dark Knight because of the similarities in visuals as well. It has been said that Green Arrow is The Batman for this CW Arrowverse. While that may be true, it would be definitely a treat to see both Green Arrow and Batman interact as Oliver Queen, Bruce Wayne and their alter egos. Now the powers that be may say STILL no Batman at this time. However, it all boils down to what is best for business. If the fans are crying out for Batman in this universe, this usually equates to a longer running show(s). This also equates to profits left on the table. The pushback of NOT having a Batman in the Arrowverse may become too much even for the CW and DC decision makers to withstand. Voice your opinions below.
