Except that is who Slade and Anatoly are in the comics, they are villians. Sorry for late reply. Been busy with summer school. It wasn't matter. They can add a new layer to classic characters by making villains into anti-heros. They've already made Slade into a anti-hero when he joined the Suicide Squad in the comics. Same with Deadshot and a few others, the "grey" characters are always interesting and that is why Slade worked so well. Anatoly shouldn't be a straight substitute for Slade, they've both got different personalities, i only hope they don't ruin the character as they did Malcolm Merlyn. Slade never becomes an anti hero on The Arrow. In Legends of Tomorrow "Star City 2046", Oliver says that he lost his arm fighting Slade. Slade son takes his father's position in "Star City 2046".
