comment
Like many comics published during DC's New 52 initiative, much of Green Arrow's history and background as a superhero were wiped clean. Faced with dwindling sales, Jeff Lemire was given creative control of the struggling title, beginning with issue #17, in hopes of giving it a much-needed direction.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Lemire's duration on the title proved to be incredibly rejuvenating to the series. Further wiping the slate clean and ignoring much of what had come before, Lemire's run focuses heavily on a Myth Arc and extensive lore that was entirely new to the character, while re-introducing key members of Oliver's Rogues Gallery in new and interesting ways.Running from 2013 to 2014, from issues #17 to #34, the series served as a high mark for the character's history during the highly divisive New 52. Further aided by running concurrently with Arrow, this highly-acclaimed take on the character helped to elevate Green Arrow out of relative obscurity.

Abusive Parents

comment
Abusive Parents: A notable aversion for Shado, at least for the most part. Shado is depicted as stern and focused on Emiko's training, but otherwise, she isn't implied to be abusive with her. In fact, she has some strong Mama Bear tendencies. Played straight with Emiko's adopted father, Komodo. Robert put Oliver through a Training from Hell in order to toughen him up and force him to gain the skills necessary to help him along his quest for the Arrow Totem. This included stranding him on a deserted island, letting him believe that he was the only person alive there for years and watching him struggle to survive, culminating in Cold-Blooded Torture when he found out that he wasn't. Ultimately it was for good reasons, and it worked, but Oliver calls him out on it when he finds out.

A Real Man Is a Killer: While Oliver doesn't necessarily believe that killing is a passage into manhood, he certainly believes that the moment he stopped being a spoiled socialite with no direction in life happened after he took his first human life.
