Just comparing plot points between Batman and the Arrow show:

Really rich playboy type
Feels the need to save his city from its evil elements
Triggered by the death of Arrow's father/Batman's parents
Gets a sidekick to help him (well, now Arrow has 2 kind of; Batman has several)
Is away for a long time, when he does his training (kinda Batman Begins)
Has all kinds of high-tech gadgets to aid his crime fighting
Has connections to the police
