	AAARRRG WHY WON'T SHE GO AWAAAYYYY? Seriously. Yawn. Bored. Annoyed. Move on. Throw in a giant gorilla and the sheriff of Nottingham or something. ANYTHING. Just make it stop, please. I can't even bring myself to use my happy-Ollie-eating-spaghetti icon. =( (Reply to this) (Thread)

I know, right?! I would really love to see Green Arrow play on the whole Robin Hood theme a bit more. Get him fighting corruption, something akin to stealing from the rich to give to the poor, but, as others have suggested, play up the family aspect. Ollie has, like, a billion children and one grandchild. Throw in Dinah and Sin and you've got sit-com territory.

It should be a fun book.

Let's see, there is Ollie, the billionaire sharp shooter with a love of chili and a hatred for fat cats; Dinah, the beautiful and sexy florist who can kick everyone's ass from here till Sunday; Roy, the former drug addict/bad boy now single dad; Conner, the illegitimate son and Buddhist who can also beat the crap out of you with martial arts OR arrows; Mia, the smartaleck HIV positive former teen prostitute now turned shooting sidekick; Lian, the daughter of an internationally known assassin/terrorist and all around adorable little girl; and Sin, the little girl was raised to be the next Lady Shiva.

SO MUCH POTENTIAL FOR AWESOME. SO MUCH WASTED.

	I still think the "bring back Connor and have Cupid fall in love with him" idea is hilarious. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Uhg, but she's already raped Ollie look-alikes, and Connor actually has resemblance to Ollie. I just seriously want her to go away. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sorry! I just don't want to entertain the thought of poor Connor being subjected to that. Here, have some kittens to wash away the awful: (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wait, what? When did that happen? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	scottyquick 2009-10-20 12:58 pm UTC (link)
	It didn't, but it totally should have before she turned out to be raping guys who looked like Ollie. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Man, that character is just wrong. I guess I'm glad Connor's away from this train wreck of a book. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Or do a whole Robin Hood + animals theme? Cowardly lion princes, a snake advisor, Nottingham as a fat wolf? Just...FIX THIS NOISE, OLLIE! (Reply to this) (Parent)
