Description
THE Green Arrow not just Green Arrow. I want Ollie to be like THE ultimate hunter/tracker type of the DCU. He'd be the protector of the forests and wildlife.His Year One story by Diggle and Jock was the biggest inspiration for this but I'm taking it one step in a different direction and have it so he adopted the forests and jungles as his own rather than going back to the city.
Much like Batman to Gotham, Ollie will be like an urban legend or "ghost" of the forest. He protects it from the shadows, the tree tops, etc. If anyone watches Smallville they might notice his arm markings. They're Ollie's feather-like designs from his Smallville costume!
I have no idea yet as to how to incorporate Roy, Connor, Mia and possibly Dinah.

Be interesting how/if Hawkman fitted into that background.

He should encounter Roy when Big Business comes to the forest to harvest resources. Roy should be the adopted son of the boss and when Roy is left behind Green Arrow adopts him, making him Speedy, or something like that

Did the Phantom give any inspiration because that's what it sounded like when you said "ghost"

I never thought of that lol. I meant it as like a sort of stalker in the woods that no one really encounters face to face but only sees him moving around in the trees and bushes and stuff. No one ever gets a good look at him.

Oh..I love this a lot <3
I think the "wild" traits of Green Arrow bring up the best of Ollie, so it's a pleasure to see you stressed them in him here.
As for the rest of the family, Connor would make a great kid of the forests, while I can see what might be difficult to translate into this concept with Roy, and especially Dinah and Mia, that have stronger "urban" traits. Anyway, I hope you'll draw them as well, Mia and Roy are surely among my favs :3

Many thanks. I have to admit that I love this too lol. Yeah Connor fits perfectly into this world that I could easily write him in as a sidekick or something. When I get a solid idea for Connor, Roy, Mia and Dinah I'll draw them for sure (since Dinah is like my dream woman and all hehe). Meanwhile, I'll be taking a little trip over to teh villains side next. THE ROGUES!

Yeah, that would be great, more father/son love is always welcome.
And I can easily see your point with Dinah ^_-
Looking forward for the villains :3
