Among the interesting bits of Arrow news to come out of the San Diego Comic-Con was the release of the first official photo of Stephen Amell in the new suit. Arrow fans will see Amell don the suit in the first episode of the fourth season of the series set for Wednesday, October 7, 2015 at 8pm ET/PT on The CW.

And in addition to revealing the photo, the network also released details on its design:

“Created by Arrow’s resident costume designer Maya Mani, who has also designed many of the show’s singular super suits — including those of Arsenal (Colton Haynes), Black Canary (Katie Cassidy), Speedy (Willa Holland) and Ray Palmer’s A.T.O.M. (Brandon Routh) — Oliver Queen’s latest Arrow incarnation is a dramatic renewal of his trademark leather, hooded vigilante gear.”

Returning cast members for the fourth season include Amell, Katie Cassidy, David Ramsey, Willa Holland, Emily Bett Rickards, John Barrowman and Paul Blackthorne. Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, Andrew Kreisberg, Wendy Mericle and Sarah Schechter executive produce the series.
