Because I don’t follow Arrow spoilers too closely, I missed this little tidbit which may be of interest to Flash fans. Spoilers for next week’s episode behind the jump.
The Flash Rogue Murmur will appear as a villain in Starling City. This is the official synopsis for the episode:
DC COMICS’ VILLAIN MURMUR SWEEPS INTO STARLING CITY — Still weighed down by his last meeting with Ra’s al Ghul (guest star Matt Nable), Oliver (Stephen Amell) returns home to find a new villain and his crew have started terrorizing Starling City – Michael Amar AKA Murmur (guest star Adrian Glynn McMorran), a man whose mouth has been sewn shut. Meanwhile, Laurel (Katie Cassidy) and Nyssa (guest star Katrina Law) bond over their issues with their fathers and Nyssa make Laurel an offer. Thea (Willa Holland) is forced to come to terms with her father after Oliver brings Malcom (John Barrowman) to the loft to recover, and Lance (Paul Blackthorne) shuts out both Laurel and the Arrow. Dermott Downs directed the episode written by Beth Schwartz & Brian Ford Sullivan (#316).
You can see the trailer for the episode here, and Murmur does appear. You can also see a still image of him, which may make it easier to pick him out. The episode will air on March 18th.

Murmur is much better suited to the darkness of Arrow rather than the more light-hearted approach of The Flash series, so I’m glad he’ll be appearing here instead. I don’t think he’s ever been a good fit in the Flashverse. Hopefully this series can use him well and in a manner which isn’t too horrifying.
