"One bullet left! Shoot me and take your revenge! Or you can shoot yourself. It's your choice!"
—The Count

"The Count" is the dealer of a drug called Vertigo. He received his nickname because his first customers, or "victims", were left with a mark by the drug on their neck, shaped like a vampire's bite.

He eventually fights with the Hood, however in the end he gave the Count a taste of his own medicine and injected him with considerable amounts of his own drug, an amount doctors have never seen anyone live through before. He is strapped to a gurney and wheeled off into a hospital, declared insane.

Behind the scenes

"The Count" is based off of Count Vertigo in the DC Comics. In the original comics, Count Vertigo had the ability to disorient his victims using a chip planted in his skull, which is manifested in Arrow as the drug called Vertigo. He is described as being very nightmarish.
