Has Green Arrow ever looked cooler than in the trailer for Arrow, a weekly series hitting CW in October. In past comics (prior to “The New 52”), he was an ultra-liberal womanizer with an outmoded appreciation for Errol Flynn’s style. He shoots arrows in a world where guys have rings powered by alien science and people are running around at mach one. Also, his last name is Queen. It’s hard to see him as much of a threat to any self-respecting villain.
That doesn’t appear to be the case in Arrow, where he looks like a total bad-ass. The show appears to be a dark and realistic take on Green Arrow. While comparisons to Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy are inevitable, I’m getting more of a Jason Bourne vibe from the video.
Check out the trailer for Arrow and let me know what you think (please!).
Disappointed that they didnt keep the same actor from Smallville but i’ll give it a chance.
Yeah i was thinking the same thing.
Yeah, he may “look” like a bad-ass, but this guy has nothing on Clint Barton from Ultimates 2. Suicidal Hawkeye will kick Green Arrow’s ass any day of the week.

New 52 Green Arrow has better technology.
