DC Showcase: Green Arrow (2010)
Technically, this one is cheating a bit, because it’s a short film and was released as a special extra on the Superman/Batman: Apocalypse DVD. However, running in at just 12 minutes and available online nowadays, this feature captured the spirit of Green Arrow better than any five seasons of The CW show have.
You’d think for such a short piece that there would be nothing happening, but no. We get to see Oliver Queen duke it out with Count Vertigo and Merlyn – plus, there’s a special appearance by the Black Canary at the end of it. Best part, though? There’s no Felicity Smoak in sight!
Also, fun bit of trivia here: Neal McDonough voiced the Green Arrow in this feature. Nowadays, he’s better known for his role as Oliver’s nemesis Damien Darhk in Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow. I guess you can say he lived long enough to see himself become the villain.
