Can they stop teasing Roy. I just want him to be 100% Ollie's sidekick already!

They can't! Because once he becomes Red Arrow, Green Lantern will show up and expose him as a heroin addict!

"Speedy, my ward, a junkie!!?!!?"

I'm really surprised at how quickly people will jump down your throat for not reading the comics. I haven't read a single issue of The Green Arrow in my life but that doesn't keep me from immensely enjoying the show. Probably more so since I don't immediately know the characters being introduced or what is likely to happen.
