Warning: Green Arrow (2023) is a direct sequel to events in Dark Crisis, so Late Arrival Spoilers for that comic may be unmarked on this page.Green Arrow is a 2023 maxiseries and relaunch of the DC Comics hero, written by Joshua Williamson, and art by Sean Izaakse. It is a spinoff of Dark Crisis and part of the Dawn of DC publishing initiative.During the lead-up to Dark Crisis, Oliver Queen was among the casualties of Pariah's opening salvo against Earth's heroes. Like the rest of the Justice League, he too died during Justice League #75 and was transported into an artificial prison world (wherein he became a battery for Pariah's multiversal machinery).Like the rest of the League, Oliver eventually fought his way out of the Lotus-Eater Machine, reunited with his colleagues, and was ready to take the fight back to Earth-0. However, because Oliver had actually died (at the hands of Doomsday rather than being vaporized by Pariah's Great Darkness energies), he was forced to remain behind to ensure his friends could escape and stop Pariah.Now that the Dark Crisis is over, however, Oliver's working on trying to escape this artificial reality (and his family and allies are likewise trying to find him and bring him home). But there are other dark forces who would be very happy for the Emerald Archer to remain exactly where he is...The first issue was released April 25, 2023.

Gone Horribly Wrong: Subverted. At first it looks as though Old Man Ollie's decision to keep the Arrows separated did more harm than good judging from what Roy and Lian suffered through. But then it turns out "Ollie" is actually Malcolm Merlyn in disguise having set up an elaborate conspiracy to torture the Arrow Family by tearing them apart.

Papa Wolf: The moment Lian is taken from Roy after they finally reunited after so long, he furiously demands to know where Amanda Waller is with a look on his face indicating he will destroy that woman if this is her fault. He's equally as enraged when Cheshire reveals she found out Lian was alive sooner than he did and didn't tell him.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall
 Green Arrow (2023) (Comic Book) / int_4a3e547f
comment
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: The third issue apparently reveals that an older version of Green Arrow from the future has been trying to keep his family apart because they apparently cause "The Great Disaster," and struck a deal with Amanda Waller and Parallax to make sure everyone stayed separate. This included letting everyone believe Lian was dead, and rendering her incapable of being anywhere near Roy. Which in turn means that the older Green Arrow is responsible for instigating all of the suffering that Roy went through in Rise of Arsenal. Keep in mind that Lian was originally killed and Roy was turned into a villain because DC editorial demanded a restructuring of the Arrow Family after the failure of the Green Arrow/Black Canary marriage, while creators vainly tried to argue they wanted to do "interesting stories" about Roy without Lian dragging him down. So it seems that it's now literally Green Arrow's fault that Roy and Lian were torn apart, because he thought they were better off without each other. Although #5 reveals that it's not, it's the work of an unknown villain with a Green Arrow robot.

Present!Oliver is confronted by Parallax!Hal who confronts him and then transports the two to the future where The Great Disaster has occurred which his family will allegedly cause. Present!Ollie then gauges him into a physical fistfight where it's revealed that the entity is still controlling him before fleeing.

Cerebus Retcon
 Green Arrow (2023) (Comic Book) / int_8b67aba7
comment
Cerebus Retcon: Of a Cerebus Retcon. When Festival Of Heroes revealed "Shoes" was Lian, it showed her vaguely remembering her mother apparently leaving her in Gotham City after escaping from some ninjas. The story was that Lian suffered amnesia and spent years not knowing who she was, explicitly mentioning she had no memories of a family or ever celebrating a birthday with them. The first three issues reveals that Lian never had amnesia and her mother wasn't responsible for faking her death. Lian was apparently saved by Amanda Waller and an older version of Ollie thanks to a deal he made with Parallax to keep the Arrow Family apart. Worse still, Lian was prevented from trying to reconnect with Roy, being forcibly transported away every time she got near him, meaning she had to watch her father go insane and then degrade himself with Red Hood from a distance.

Didn't Think This Through: If the person responsible for the Arrow Family being split apart was an older version of Green Arrow from the future, then logically this would be a version of Oliver Queen who lived through the events of Cry for Justice and Rise of Arsenal, and should therefore understand that keeping Lian from her family and letting Roy believe she was dead was the worst thing he could've done and made both incapable of ever being genuinely happy on their own. Averted in that Old Man Ollie was not really a future version of Ollie but was Actually a Doombot who was manipulating events in order to keep Ollie alone and miserable.

The Bus Came Back: The first issue's wraparound cover reveals Mia Dearden is finally returning to the modern Green Arrow mythos after over a decade of being absent following Flashpoint (and save for a brief return during the New 52 era). The cover also reveals that Cissie King-Jones aka Arrowette II, whose appearances post-Graduation Day have been cameos, is returning to the mantle for the first time since 1999.note This also marks her first interaction with any of the Arrowfam. Eddie Fyers, a major supporting character of both Green Arrows, will be returning since his more antagonistic depiction in 2017.

 Green Arrow (2023) (Comic Book) / int_9c4a7090

Springtime for Hitler: Meta example. Artist Sean Izaakse has jokingly lamented this happened upon getting the Green Arrow gig. Having just wrapped Marvel's Thunderbolts before coming over to DC, he understandably didn't want to do another team book again and requested a solo title. He did indeed get his wish… on a solo book that features the Green Arrow Family, which means he's still essentially drawing a team book.

Imposter Forgot One Detail When Old Man Ollie is trying to convince his present day self that being part of his family's life is destroying them, he says he should have died on the island, and knowing that is why he never returned. Ollie retorts that he does feel that way sometimes, which is why he goes back to the island all the time, he just never tells anyone.

Instead of rushing to her and overwhelming her, he simply lets Lian know that she doesn't have to come with him if she doesn't want to but he is here for her whenever she is ready to come home. After a moment of hesitation, Lian runs into his arms.

All for Nothing: Subverted. The older Ollie claims he orchestrated the separation of the Arrow Family to stop a greater catastrophe, believing they would be able to find happiness on their own. The suffering and degradation Roy and Lian Harper went through after the events of Cry For Justice shows this idea, on the surface, was a failure. Then the fifth issue reveals "Ollie" isn't actually Green Arrow, but a villain whose real goal was to make Green Arrow's family suffer.

That Lian's death had absolutely nothing to do with anything Roy ever did as her father, and her indirect abandonment of Lian in Villains United as soon as she had a replacement conceived.
