UPDATE: If after seeing these photos, you were afraid Arrow's Season 7 premiere forgot to include the show's hero, have we got an update for you! Along with the photos focusing on Felicity, The CW also released a new batch focusing on Oliver's life behind bars. Looks rough. Maybe Barry can give him a few "life on the inside" pointers? Check out the new photos in the gallery below!

ORIGINAL POST: If you think summer’s been long for you, imagine how it’s been for Oliver Queen, who’s been behind bars since we left him in Arrow’s dramatic season 6 finale. Still, there are brighter days ahead. First, we only have a month more before Arrow returns to The CW. And then there’s Felicity Smoak’s awesome new look, which is on full display in these recently released photos from Arrow’s season 7 premiere. When did she start sporting the pink hair and piercings? What do you think of them? And are you counting down the days until Arrow’s back prison-style on your bedroom wall? Just us? Oh, okay…

Arrow returns to The CW on October 15, 2018.
