True, but too be fair, the island in the comics was... An island. In this show, it was a mercenary camp to blow up an island, a bunch of pirates trying to steal a Japanese superhuman drug, Slade, CHINA, the US military led by a guy who makes Eiling look sane, a criminal group, magic, and now Russia.

Plus, he did see his dad commit suicde in front of him. I think Oliver should have had a psychiatrist in the pilot.
