I made this brief intro to the arrow family powerpoint which I decided I might as well share with Tumblr because I (shockingly) haven't found a situation to use it irl

Dinah and Roy and Mera and Garth are such cute mother-son relationships. Honestly they're better parents then their partners, who are the actual parents.

I would just like to point out that if you happen to be doing a DickRoy/Roy Harper/Lian Harper/or Arrowfam read through (or are following a reading guide) and therefore need to read Action Comics #613-618 & #627-634 it will probably be easier to read Nightwing Old Friends, New Enemies than searching through Action Comics (and the quality is better)

Maybe this is common knowledge, but I didn't know, and reading Action Comics was a pain.

how about an arrowfam or superfam-centric 5+1?

100% it would be "Five Times an Arrowkid Called Ollie 'Dad.'" Featuring:

Roy saying it when he's very very small and half-asleep after a night of patrol and Ollie's whole chest seizes up because holy shit he has a KID now.

Connor saying it very tentatively after Ollie comes back to life like he's afraid Ollie will run away again, and Ollie just smiles and ruffles his hair and pretends he's not tempted to flee because he's going to fuck this up again.

Mia by accident and then they both pretend it didn't happen because uhhh her real dad was...yeah. The next time she says it it's without that immediate flinch and from then on she uses it about as often as Roy does (like 10% of the time they address Ollie).

Cissie very angrily because actually fuck you, she didn't ask to be one of Green Arrow's 97 illegitimate children, she was just fine on her own. (She will calm down, it's just that anger is her go-to response when she's uncomfortable.)

Honestly #5 should probably be Robert Jr. but I don't care about him and I REALLY don't want him and Emiko to both be in continuity because that's weird. Maybe Emiko by accident? Or, funnier - Kyle by accident and neither he nor Ollie notices until like 10 minutes later. (Roy laughs so hard.)

I have no idea what the +1 punchline is so I'm just going to say it's Ollie calling Dinah "daddy." No, I didn't mix them up.

[trucywright]

the lack of consequences and in depth story telling in dc comics is so frustrating. ollie is effectively emiko's guardian. when emiko had a secret plan that hurt him even though the end goal was noble, he was super upset at her. it would be really interesting to see them deal with ollie's fake betrayal, the feeling that she'd potentially lose the last bit of her family, and how he did even worse than her with the secret plans.

but no. the next writer seemingly has little to no interest in the arrowfam besides maybe connor and mia. so even though ollie and emiko are half-siblings and ollie was pretty much raising her, nothing about their relationship will ever be further explored because dc is just unwilling to do that. emiko didn't even get to say anything in the last GA issue about what ollie did, but sure. give dialogue to red canary who shouldn't even be there.

yk whats so interesting abt roy not liking ollie taking a child sidekick?? the fact that roy was forced to have a 16yo on a superhero team bc otherwise that kid wouldve gone to jail, & the superhero team he was the leader of also had 2 other 15/16yo kids (the editorial-mandated tara markov 2.0 & bart allen).

theres also the fact that now its canon that emiko queen was ollie's 3rd child sidekick.

like... theres something to chew on here. theres something to be said abt roy blatantly hating & being against the concept of teenagers being put in harm's way but was the leader of a team w 3 teenagers that he was directly responsible for (one of whom was literally going to prison at 16yo if roy hadnt stepped in), as well as the fact that his dad lied abt mia dearden being the last teenager ollie would ever have as a sidekick (via editorial mandates... bc of the fucking. n52 to rebirth character arc pipelines.)

also the fact that roy's own daughter has become a child sidekick of an antihero...... theres smth to unpack here.
