#Green Arrow comics

[suguruslut]

Still think it's super fucked up that all the sexual assault scenes againat males in the DC universe (Nightwing, Green Arrow, etc.) are completely normalized in the comics. Like, imagine what kind of message that sent to young male readers (and even adult aged male readers) when they saw and continue to see male victims being blamed for their own assaults, writers shrugging off the assault/writing it as no big deal, the assailant getting away scotch free, never even being dubbed an assaulter because they're a woman. The male characters are never seen as victims, never asked if they're okay after being SA.

Idk, just something that always bothered me. Kinda sad even the modern comic writers never point it out or try to correct it...

Genuinely love how Dick looks like he's having the time of his life being flown by Kory, whereas Mia is holding on for dear life.

Incorrect quote from an AU that i'll be explaining later.

(still working on the AU name, but 'Brothers in all but Blood' is the top candidate)

*on the way back from a JL meeting* Batman: *Driving* Nightwing: *is also in the car* *Phone ring, Batman sighs and puts it on speaker* Green Arrow: Hey B. That Nightwing with you? NIghtwing: Hi Uncle Ollie! Oliver, nervous: Hey kid. So guys, I, uh, need to know if I can hide out at your place for now… Bruce: Please don't tell me you got into another fight with your father,' ((It's not that he minds Ollie coming over, but Robert never makes Ollie feel nice most of the time. )) Oliver: Er…. No, I….. may have or may have not gotten into a fight with Merlon.

*Bruce slams on the breaks so hard the Batmobile screeches* Bruce and Dick in perfect unison: YOU WHAT?!!?!?!?!?!

Dick, yelling at the speaker: Dude, i haven't even properly met your grandfather, i just saw him a few times at those stupid parties! Have you met that guy? He's terrifying! ((A/N: I couldn't find the name of Oliver's paternal grandfather in the canon universe, so i made one up))

Bruce: Do you have a death wish? Do you have a freaking death wish? Or are you just stupid?

Oliver, desperate: I don't know! He was visiting and saw me, and he started dissing the way i disappear so often, and then it just escalated from there! I went to my room and got out through the window, i'm on some random rooftop right now.

Bruce: *groans* My god…… between one and ten? Oliver, very quietly: .......ten. Dick: That's bad. Usually all it takes is a five for you to hide out at our place….

Ollie: Just please tell me I can come over, Bruce, sighing: Come over ASAP after your patrol. I remember that one time when we were 10 and 11, your grandfather caught us sneaking out during that damn gala….. man i don't like arguing with him. If he wasn't your grandfather, I'd punch him.

Bruce: We have a…. situation over here anyway, and I wouldn't begrudge a visit from my brother.

Ollie: Thanks bro, i owe you some.

(Plot twist, Oliver is the older one, by a year and a half. The JL doesn't know their identities or how they're connected. Bruce and Oliver are both autistic.)

nao which comics r u reading rn??? or will read later on

I'm reading Teen Titans (1966), I've read separated issues and character's origins plus short comics like Robin: Year One, Batman Universe, Teen Titans: Year One, and I did start Red Robin, but then abandoned it 'cause I realized it'd be better to read more about Robin!Tim first.

I'm planning on starting New Teen Titans after I finish the Teen Titans, and after that New Titans. I'll probably also read Young Justice (1998) and then some Green Arrow and Flash comics to start with them. I'm also considering Green Lantern after all that and Superman and Wonder Woman comics are on my list too.

(I should consider the Justice League comics, too, to have an overall knowledge of the whole team)

Of course, since Dick Grayson is my favorite, I'll be prioritizing his comic runs also. I don't think I'll read the Nightwing (2016) run though, we'll see. Then I also have to read Batman: Battle for the Cowl and Batman and Robin (2011).

And I don't think I'll ever get to read the main Batman comic complete, but I'll read some important arcs in there, too.

I think that's all I have planned?

If anyone has any recs though, I'd appreciate them!

I was watching Batman brave and the bold, knights of tomorrow. They made Green Arrow balding! I can't get over it!

I don't remember many future iterations of Oliver where they did this to him

Crackin film idea

So the new Superman movie is coming out next year - I think it looks wonderful and I'm so excited for it, along with the more Star Wars type of timeline for the new DCU, allowing for stories to be told in completely different times released in the same year.

I have a suggestion for a movie they should do (movie because my boy deserves the big screen)

A Green Arrow movie, with Connor Hawke as Green Arrow.

There are a couple things to consider here, and luckily I have considered them.

When will it be set?

The film will be set jut after Oliver Queen, the original Green Arrow and Connor's father, dies. The film can begin with how Connor's original comic run began, with the plane explosion killing Oliver Queen. The first few minutes are the terrorist fight and the deadman's bomb scene, all filmed as if Ollie is the main character, but just as the plane explodes, the footage gains news stuff around it and zooms out to be revealed as on a tv in a tv showroom as current news, with Connor standing in front of it in a jacket with a bag.

He silhouettes against the screens for a couple seconds, before turning and walking out of shot, when it then cuts to the Green Arrow title card.

The actual film will take place a month later.

What will the plot be?

The main theme of the film will be identity. Let's be real, Connor is basically the equivalent of the diversity play in the arrow fam, and as a result, has a lot of boxes that he checks. He's African American, Korean, Caucasian, Buddhist, Vegetarian, Asexual, and probably a couple more if I thought about it for longer. As a result, he experiences the feeling of not fitting in truly to any of these boxes except maybe vegetarian and asexual. In the film, he'll be 18: Young and inexperienced in the world. He'll be on the outs with his mother due to her toxic marriage with Milo Armitage, with him being angry about her continuing to give him more chances despite his constant failure.

So, at the heart of the film, it will be Connor trying to figure out who he is, and how all these parts of him slot together, while feeling isolated. He'll be trying to reconnect with his culture via travelling to Korea and maybe talking with his grandfather, he'll be trying to figure out why he's so wrong that he feels uncomfortable at the thought of having sex with all these people who keep on propositioning him, and most of all, he'll be trying to figure out how to fill the enormous shoes of his father, a man who he's had minimal interactions with.

As for villain and that, I really love the Hate Crimes Storyline with Nicholas Kotero and the political manipulation into hating each other throughout New York, one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world, so if we have that as the main villain storyline that builds slowly in the background the whole time as Connor travels, before realizing what is happening and rushing back to stop it, I think that would be really good and also make for some good political commentary.

Throughout the film, we'll have him fighting local mafia and that such street crime, with the whole thing coming together as a interconnected web as something all orchestrated by Kotero to create hate and chaos throughout the world.

Maybe the Korea and Japan story, where the Korean mafia want to nuclear bomb Japan to force them into a war to bring their country back to its former glory, but reversed potentially, so the story happens in Korea instead of Japan.

On top of all this interconnectedness, it will also tie back to Milo with his international arms dealing providing ammunition for this so called 'race war'.

It would also create a better finale than just punching and fighting to have it be Connor having to talk down a city of frenzied rioters.

Who would be in it?

Connor Hawke - duh. They would need some very careful casting to make sure the actor is African American/Korean/Caucasian. I think they should bleach his hair blonde because it's an iconic part of his character and I find it funny that Oliver's recessive blonde hair is what carries through.

Oliver Queen - In the beginning and in flashbacks throughout the film, with him at some point telling Connor the story of the 'loveboat killer' Nicholas Kotero which is why Connor can figure out whose behind it all.

Sandra Moonday Hawke - Icon. We need her both in flashbacks and in current scenes. Get my boy his mother.

Milo Armitage - Evil stepfather must be in it.

Nicholas Kotero - Evil insane villain must also be in it.

Eddie Fyers - Easy way to tie to mafia and explain that also I think he's amazing and a great supervisor to Connor because he does no supervising and actually is the one in need of supervising.

Kyle Rayner - For New York. He's in the original story, have him be a character in it, maybe an acquaintance of Connor's from the month between opening scene and main plot.

Jet - I don't know her last name, but the biker gang girl from Japan that he meets. Get her in Korea some how, maybe make her Korean or maybe make her have previosuly been in the mafia or smth, but have her there. She'll hit on him and help him.

I choose not to have arrowfam in this, because he doesn't really know them. He's raised away from his father and his life, he maybe knows Dinah in passing but that's about it.

Anyway in conclusion they should stop having all these films have white basic male protagonists and give Connor Hawke some love and a crackin film about what it means to be the diversity play.

Also I love him so much.
