Sometimes, no words are necessary

It all begins when Deleon, the man who stole Oliver Queen's fortune and bought his mansion, finds his old Arrowcave headquarters.



Basically, what's going on is that Deleon has been targeted for assassination by the supervillain Hellgrammite, after a deal gone sour. Now Deleon's hoping to blackmail Ollie into keeping him safe.



The costume was stolen from Star City's police museum, in case you're wondering.











Later, Deleon decides it's better to just pay Hellgrammite off instead of risk death. Ollie tries to track him down, in the hopes that he'll lead him to Hellgrammite and Black Canary, who's still captured.





Not realizing she's already escaped, Ollie finds Hellgrammite.

The beard, oh, the beard! Beard + cowl looks so very wrong.

Beard + cowl = howling laughter on my part. God, I think I hurt something.

Gadzooks, how stupid this dude is. And Oliver once again shows why he has the worst disguise in the world. I think people pretend not to know just to be nice.

Him and BC. I mean, a wig? A WIG? How often does a woman change her hair color and become unrecognizable as a result?

And once again? Tape as a cheap dramatic device. I'm appalled.

This one time in college, my roommate changed her hair from a straightened chin-length pageboy to tied-back cornrows, and I spent three weeks wondering vaguely why I hadn't seen her around lately and who this other girl who had started hanging out in our kitchen was. (Look, there were six of us sharing the suite, and I wasn't real social.)

Ollie, however... maybe everyone thinks it's just too obvious?

Either is possible.

It's the DCU. There is no such thing as an average IQ, because everyone is either a Level Ten Superintelligence or Forrest Gump.

And, like, not even sweet-natured Low-INT-High-WIS movie Forrest. I'm talking angry violent redneck Forrest from the book.

You're thinking Marvel, chum.

[smarmyimp.insanejournal.com]

No, Marvel is more just the TV version of civilians, a vaguely dumbed-down You Suck version of real people.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to heartily disagree with you there.
