 * In the DC Comics multiverse, Amanda Waller is the leader of A.R.G.U.S.; it is unknown if she is the leader of the organization on Arrow. However, as she refers to Lyla Michaels as one of her "assets", it is likely that she is, and by the end of season 2 she has not been shown reporting directly to anyone.

 * The name derives from the Greek mythological figure of Argus Panoptes, a giant with 100 eyes, whose task was to guard the transformed nymph Io (now a heifer) from Zeus. Argus was slain by Hermes, and in her sorrow at his loss, Hera, who had employed him, had his eyes set in the tail of the peacock, which became her bird and symbol.
