What Justice Requires. Arrow Season 2.5  produced its finest issue yet as the 'Blood' story arc reached its conclusion. The finale featured two chapters; 'Choice' detailed the epic showdown between the Arrow, Arsenal, the Huntress and the Renegades, whilst 'Flames' saw Brother Blood make his last stand.
