DCU

The only known son of the original Green Arrow, Connor Hawke is the living antithesis of his volatile, womanizing father, Oliver Queen. An earnest young man with a mature and thoughtful nature, he was nominated for the team by Green Lantern in a bid to enlarge the membership. More recently, however, he has begun to suspect he was only invited to join because Green Lantern was tired of being the only inexperienced member, an accusation Kyle Rayner emphatically denies. More comfortable in the company of older heroes, Green Arrow has formed a strong relationship with Aquaman, the two often teaming up as Aquaman recalls hilarious, bombastic accounts of his adventures with Connor's late father. Accused of nepotism by those who failed the membership drive, the Justice League insists that Green Arrow is more than a boy with a boy and arrow. They owe him their lives, as he single-handedly defeated the Key.

A skilled and amazingly accurate archer, Connor tends to rely more on his other fighting skills. Proficient at several different martial arts, Green Arrow is a hand-to-hand combatant with few rivals.
