Oliver Queen's Fall: A Hazardous Legacy
The renowned Emerald Archer Oliver Queen, in the startling events of Joshua Williamson's Green Arrow #13, illustrated by Amancay Nahuelpan, faces a decision that could destroy his legacy. Motivated by a desire to keep his family safe, he teams up with the mysterious Amanda Waller and her contentious Hall of Order. Oliver's heroic history is called into question by this coalition because he is choosing a different course from the ones he previously supported.
The Metahuman War and the Hall of Order
Renowned for her merciless strategies and unyielding dedication to law, Amanda Waller has declared war on metahumans. She sees these people as a threat to the stability of society and wants to exert control over them. Oliver consents to be Waller's tool in this fight because he is so consumed with wanting to keep his loved ones safe. His pals, Arsenal (Roy Harper) and the Cheshire Cat, who undertake a risky rescue operation inside the Hall of Order, get enraged by this decision.
A New Chapter: Connor Hawke Ascends
Oliver Hawke decides to follow a dark path, but his son Connor Hawke continues the Green Arrow tradition. Connor is prepared to take on the mantle once more after taking it on during Oliver's absence. As word of Oliver's treachery grows, Connor understands how critical it is to protect the Green Arrow's image and make sure his father's deeds do not diminish the symbol of hope he stands for.
The Ideal Substitute: A Redefined Legacy
Connor Hawke is the logical heir to the Green Arrow role; he is not just a replacement. He serves as a living example of the justice and compassion that Oliver has given up on, showing readers that the Green Arrow is more than just a moniker—it is a philosophy and a dedication to standing up for the oppressed. Being the new Green Arrow, Connor is a ray of hope and proof of the Emerald Archer's enduring legacy.
Green Arrow's New Chapter: The Uncertain Future
Oliver's alLiance with Amanda Waller may have unintended effects. Can Connor keep up the reputation of the Green Arrow? Is he able to reconcile his father's behavior and the principles he stands for? While the future of Green Arrow remains uncertain, one thing is certain: under Connor Hawke's leadership, the Emerald Archer's legacy is in capable hands.
