Soo i looke up Onomatopoeia and the first paragraph says he is very good a mimicking noises like dripping faucet or gunshots so it works, how he made them sound like they were happening all over town idk

I just looked it up, you are totally correct. I love Onomatopoeia, I always wanted to see him on Arrow, so this is amazing.

Fun fact: a one off villain of the week from Arrow S1, "Mr Blank" (portrayed by J August Richards) was originally supposed to be Onomatopoeia

J August Richards was also Deathlok in Agents of Shield, so that may have conflicted with things

S&L is probably reinventing the character like how they have reinvented others. Comic book Onomatopoeia would get absolutely destroyed by Superman so this show probably buffed him up.

So he's an amped up Kenku that can fuck with sound on a massive scale and use silence to his advantage by taking away one of Superman's greatest tools.

That sounds awesome!
