Robert Queen (Earth-2)


 * For his Earth-1 equivalent, see Robert Queen (Earth-1).

Robert Queen is a billionaire and the vigilante known as The Green Arrow, formerly The Arrow and The Hood.

Shipwreck
During a voyage at sea with his son, Oliver, Robert was shipwrecked on an island, while Oliver perished. Robert was originally believed dead until unknown circumstances lead to his return to civilisation.

Becoming The Hood
Years after Oliver's death, he returned and became the vigilante The Hood, later being renamed The Arrow. He also became a renowned hero of Starling City.

In 2015, Robert Queen's identity was revealed on live television.

Behind the scenes

 * This version of Robert is reminiscent of Thomas Wayne from Flashpoint, a DC comic arc in which Thomas became Batman in an alternate timeline, rather than his son Bruce. A similar version of Thomas later appeared on the Earth 2 series as the new Batman of that world.
 * It is also a reference to the New 52 story arc, since in Prime Earth Robert Queen didn't die in a safari as his New Earth counterpart, but survived to become the first Green Arrow, a member of the Arrow Clan, leaving the title to his son after his death at the hands of Simon Lacroix / Komodo.
