Longtime Arrowverse fans will remember him during the second half of the first crossover between Arrow Yes the flash In late 2014, Stephen Amell’s Oliver Queen and Grant Gustin’s Barry Allen teamed up to fight George “Digger” Darkness aka Captain Boomerang, a former ASIS agent and member of the ARGUS Suicide Squad played by Spartacus Yes star girlby Nick E. Tarabay. Harkness resurfaced at the end of Arrow Season 5, and news arrives that Captain Boomerang will cause trouble the flash Season 9. However, this time around it’s a different individual with the nickname Super Villain.
Richard Harmon, perhaps best known for playing John Murphy in other CW series the 100was chosen to reprise himself as Owen Mercer’s incarnation of Captain Boomerang the flashthe last season of. According to the description given to Terme Harmon’s Owen, “he was recently released from Iron Heights with a splinter on his shoulder. But the glint in his eyes hides a dangerous and violent threat to Central City. Harmon’s other notable credits include the murderer, continued, motel Yes Van Helsing.
Owen Mercer appeared in the pages of 2004 Identity crisis # 3 as a son of Digger Darkness, although I doubt the family bond holds the flash since Richard Harmon and Nick E. Taraby are not that far in age. Owen took his father’s place on the evil team The Rogues as the new Captain Boomerang and, like Digger, was part of the Suicide Squad for a short time. Owen was eventually killed by a Black Lantern version of Digger during the darkest night event, and after the resurrection of the original Captain Boomerang and the reboot of The New 52, Owen hasn’t been seen in the comics since.
Nick E. Tarabay’s Digger Harkness died in Arrow End of season five, so it’s unclear whether in the continuity post “Crisis on Infinite Earths”, Richard Harmon’s Owen Mercer had some sort of relationship with the deceased mercenary or if he simply assumed the identity of Captain Boomerang because he was already unused and fit in well with his deadly skill set with those unique bullets. Either way, Owen Mercer is now the second villain in which it has been confirmed that he will appear the flash In season 9 we will also meet Sendhil Ramamurthy’s Ramsay Red alias Bloodwork who hasn’t appeared since season 6. While the main antagonist of season 9 has yet to be revealed, following the epic battle of Barry Allen and Eobard Thawne in the season 8 finale, a mysterious blue crystal was shown in a laboratory in 2049, possibly making fun of Cobalt Blue to play this role.
