"Whoever you are, you just made a big mistake."
—William Glenmorgan to Emiko Adachi[src]

William Glenmorgan is a mercenary operating in Star City. He was believed to be the murderer of Kazumi Adachi, though he was actually framed for the murder. When Kazumi was murdered, he was imprisoned in Santa Prisca for two years before coming back in Star City.

Biography[]

At some point, Glenmorgan was framed for Kazumi Adachi's murder.

In one of his criminal actions, Glenmorgan was approached by the new Green Arrow (who is actually Emiko Adachi). Emiko battles Glenmorgan. She's ready to shoot him with a bolt while he's down on the ground; he concedes he wasn't the one to slaughter her mom as he was out of the nation on a mission in Santa Prisca where he was imprisoned for two years. Emiko acknowledges he may have been set up.[1]

Behind the scenes[]

Portrayed by Don McGuire, this first and more faithful to the source Congo Bill is hired by a wealthy family to retrieve Ruth Culver, a wealthy heiress lost in the African jungle. Congo Bill has been closely associated with the origin story of Green Arrow in some continuities.
