Behind the scenes

 * In the DC comics, Damien Darhk has a connection with H.I.V.E. and a major target for the CIA and FBI.
 * In the DC comics, a character named Doctor Darrk was the first person other than Ra's al Ghul to lead the League of Assassins.
 * Ironically, Doctor Darrk had a falling out with Ra's al Ghul, similar to the show's version of Damien Darhk, making it possible that the character is actually an amalgamation of the DC comic versions of Damien Darhk and Doctor Darrk.
