He should have included Young Justice. Roy was a major part of that and it shows him through being Speedy/Red Arrow and Arsenal.

Nathan Canada I think he usually leaves cartoon to comic adaptions out. Since they are rarely mainstream. Unless a comic that is already going adapts elements then he usually will mention it.

Actually Speedy/Red Arrow is a Cadmus clone to infiltrate the Justice League & brainwash them with Starro-tech & have them follow Handel Savages orders. Skip Five years ahead (Young Justice: Invasion) Red Arrow (& Chesire find out that

That Red Arrow was a clone of the original Roy Harper who was frozen on ice & hidden away for a long time.
I think Arsenal is way cooler than Green Arrow, I still think Green Arrow is awesome but Roy is better in my opinion.

Green tf? Why not?
I feel like Arsenal's depiction as the "American mid western" take on the classic robin hood idea is the perfect way to go forward with his character, with him being more militant, compared to the better trained, more specialised hero that green arrow is. If Green arrow is the classic, trickster thief depiction of robin hood, Arsenal is the well armed, revolutionary cousin of robin hood.
What we really need is a history of the Batmobile episode! Not just appearance but an overview of what they've been capable of over the years. Now that would be tasty!
Roy is a sidekick. But he could have his own liveaction mini series. His origin is crazy.
i became interested in this charector after seeing him in young justice
I really like the versions of Roy Harper from Young Justice
my goodness Roy has had such a hard life.
You peaked my curiosity with Killer Croc somehow being Roy's sponsor in his 12 step program. I am unfamiliar with sponsors, especially rehabilitation sponsors. In my mind, this type of sponsor is either keeping an eye on the person, who can say "yes, they're staying strong, the program's going great" or "no, they're constantly tempted and could break at any point". Or, they're that person the recovering person contacts to keep them updated on how the program's going and to talk to when they're feeling tempted. Either of these, I can't imagine Killer Croc doing. I immediately think of one joke in the Simpsons where the lawyer Lionel Hutts is tempted by alcohol and makes a phone call telling someone, who I'm assuming would be his rehab sponsor, that he's tempted and the sponsor says "Just remember to stay strong, and know that I love you." So now I'm imagining that being Roy and Killer Croc.
This is quite a history of Arsenal first Who was known Speedy and now known as Arsenal and even in between as Red Arrow.
Damn, in the young justice tv show, there are 2 roys. The original one, who has been kept in a tube by Cadmus for 8 years since he became green arrow's sidekick, they had to take his right arm to create a clone. Which the clone roy, who became Red arrow. After 3 years finds out he's a clone and sets off to find the original roy. Which he finds him and explains everything, the original roy, is mad a green arrow, because he gave up the search and didn't notice he was training clone. The original roy goes out to find lex luthor cause it's his fault, he almost kills luthor, but he got trapped, by lasers point all at him. So lex luthor said if it's a hand your wanting, then hands him a hella cool bionic new techa arm. Then after original roy meets up with red arrow and green arrow, the original roy says he will be arsenal. Like damn tv shows stories are different from the comics
Roy has always been one of my favorites! loved the video! really wish the "Arrow" TV show would have done his character some justice.
Whoa! That was amazing! That was so much information and I was surprised at how much deeper and more complex his history is.
this IS THE BEST CHANNEL ON KZread PERIOD!!!
This was really cool episode man awesome work on this history episode
This was neat. I just starting to get into reading comics and Red Hood and the Outlaws is one that I have actually read. So it was nice to know some stuff this time around.
I've been waiting for this for ever!!!
I know this is coming almost to be a year old but a buddy of mine has me building an Arsenal suit so I like to thank you for the information! If you all want to see this when finished I'll gladly show you.
I Love that Roy Harper is basiclly a Heroic Taskmaster but Armed or equipped with Assasult Rifles, shotguns, Submachine Guns, Grenade Launchers, and RPG-rocket launchers
You should do the history of yourself/ comic related stuff about yourself( favorite character,book,movie,etc). If you went to school, what for, future plans/goals in life
Damn, who would have known that this guy had such a deep history.
Roy Harper, one of my favorite DC characters.
His Cheshire pronunciation kills me lol
Who would have thought this guy owe Killer Croc his life.
Green Arrow is slowly becoming my new favorite DC Super Hero. Thanks Variant for this one. What about a Black Canary or Huntress origins? Could be fun...

Thanks arris. Arsenal's one of my favorites. Can you do a history of another image comics character soon?
I recommend the characters depiction on young justice Since the whole clone guilt thing as a new dimension to his character
Great video as always
History of Starfire pls
Arsenal was at his best in Young Justice Invasion.
DC should really do an animated Red Arrow/Arsenal movie, inspired by the Young Justice TV Series but more faithful to the comics. It's so tragic and intriguing that, if done correctly and with respect, could even rival with Batman: Under the Red Hood. Now who wouldn't want to see that?
Roy's story line is insane!
Given that star trek was made into a comic I would have thought that this week's episode would have been a tribute to Leonard Nimoy. Please do a tribute episode to Spock in the near future.
Can you a do a history of Tottenham Hotspur next?

Can you please do something over Infinite Crisis? It seems to be such a huge comic in DC history and I really want to know more about it, thanks :)
it would be so awesome if you did a history of Red Hood episode since he is by far my favorite comic book character of all time
Love video dude awesome how described Aresnal
Good job on winning the watch mojo top 10 Arris and the team!
Hey Arris! I think that you should do a video of your top 5 or top 10 New 52 series
Colton Haynes is a cool dude. We worked on an abc show called the Gates as werewolves but unfortunately the show was cancelled. He did this crazy stunt with assistance from a crane haha Glad to see his career taking off
Hey Arris you should do a Top 5 or 10 Comic Book Video Games!!! I would love that and I'm sure other people will to. Please Arris!!!!
Great Video!!! it will be cool if you do History of The Question!!!!
I will definitely be picking up some of those books. I had no idea Roy had such a great history. thanks dude
History of Iron Fist, most underrated superhero ever
Young Justice has several things I've noticed that have come from the comics. I love it! What would be cool is to get Batwing out there!
As always the hero I he talks about is always one of his *favorites* Variant kills me with that lmao

You should do a top ten alternate versions of Superman, Batman, or any superhero.
Thanks for this as I really like green and red, arrow
Hoping DC will make a movie about Arsenal and Nightwing together... Two sidekicks from two superheroes that doesn't have any powers and also brilliant in tacticians...
Just wanted to say great job on your videos..and the thing i wanted to ask, is will you ever do a Beta Ray Bill video?..thanks again.
Love your vids
That'd be cool if in arrow they did the thing where they cut Roy's arm off and Ray Palmer makes him some cool tech arm
Yes! Finally! I love Arsenal!
Did you just say "we can shit" at the 9:05 mark? Love your work

Demon Hunter It really doesn't matter what argument you make. I saw no arguments as to how Wonder Woman would bypass Juggernauts force field, since it took a Godblast from Thor at full power to bring it down in the past and that was after he was wailed on for awhile, and no response as to how she would get past his healing factor. These battles get pointless after awhile sadly....

***** The new trailer for Age of Ultron is out !
+Iris Harper +Wally⚡ Rudolph⚡ west (kid flash yellow speedster) You guys got the story all mixed up... Barry does know Wally West, Wally is Barry's side kick, of course Iris West knows Wally West is The Kid Flash too cause It was Barry who gave Wally his speed abilities caused he looked up to Barry, Barry was the first to know Wally was Kid Flash while Iris was probably the second... Who you guys are thinking of is Bart Allen, hes Barry's grand son. Barry had twins with Iris and never got the chance to meet them, he died. He had a statue in honor of his heroism and they had a day known as "The Day Of The Flash" (or something like that) and on that day the twins had received Barry's abilities but only for that day. One of the twins has a son and names him Bart Allen. Bart goes back in time to meet the hero aka his grand father "Barry Allen" as Impulse, now he had made appearance in Smallville Tv show by the CW. And in that universe, the show never introduces Barry or Wally but they are simply Identities that Bart had used to go under. Jay Garrick had a references when they had referred back to the "Justice Society Of America". Which on the side note, Jay Garrick was real in Barry's time frame just old, he meets Barry and Iris in one issue with his wife. Barry as a kid collected Jay Garrick comics aka The First Flash (which is where Barry got "The Flash" name from)... So to him, meeting Jay Garrick in person was like meeting his hero or role model, just like it was for Impulse meeting Barry Allen as The Flash.
The clone story from young justice was very good.
Why does DC hate Lian Harper?! What did this precious thing do to deserve being treated like trash?

I really wish his Navajo nationality is brought up more. It is such an interesting addition to his character that isn't brought up as much as it should be.
could you do a history of episode of 'vision' from marvel, as he was featured in the 3rd teaser trailer for age of ultron, and just bring everyone up to speed before next month?
loved the episode, but what about the speedy, red arrow, arsenal, from the young justice tv show
History of Moon Knight would be awesome
A lot of people don't like him but I'd love a history of the Red Hulk
Can't wait for firestorm :)
Can you please do the history of Punisher. Or just some reading recommendation. It would be very helpful. :)
Awesome history, Arris. Did the 2 issues that dealt with his drug addiction have the comics code approval?
Since we're going though characters related to Batman, Green Arrow and Flash how about A History of Amanda Waller? I don't know if she is connected to Flash outside of the cartoons (and then it's indirect). But I think it would be a great way to talk about A.R.G.U.S., The Agency/Checkmate, The Suicide Squad and Cadmus.
Before this vid I only knew of speedy/Red arrow... I have never heard about Arsenal before this!
His run in the Outsiders was excellent
another great video. you should do one on Azrael.
This should def be a season of arrow. This would be awesome

Loved the Young Justice version of him
Great video once again, i wish we were friends in real life.
I honestly loved the Young Justice (TV series) take, were a clone of Roy with a genetic-defect of an arm became the Arsenal after Lex gave him the all-in-one robotic weapon arm... though a may be crossing wires here since I only watch the series once through and it's been a long time since I watched it.
