User blog comment:Raggon7/What is Tempest?/@comment-807326-20130129055229

I think Tempest have a massive part in the creation of the List. I think it'd be shocking to find that Robert Queen was a part of it. Perhaps that's where he got his guilt from. And I have a hopeful fanboy feeling that, if the Dark Archer is himself a part of Tempest, what other famous comic characters will we be seeing?! That is, if we assume Tempest is a big, secret society. It reminds me of Veritas in Smallville, who ultimately played a large part in Clark's fate. Tempest look like they'll intertwine with the Hood soon enough.
