As a fan of both versions of Laurel Lance on Arrow, primarily the Earth-1 version, it was clear on the spin-off’s pilot episode, Green Arrow and the Canaries, that there’s room to improve Earth-2 Laurel.
Let’s face it, on Arrow and The Flash, women have not been written well outside of their relationships with men on the show, so female friendship in this part of Arrow-verse has been non-existent.
To keep the legacy of Oliver Queen and Arrow going strong, the Arrow spin off’s, Green Arrow and the Canaries, backdoor pilot has introduced us to the post-Crisis version of Star City in the year 2040.
In the year 2040, there hasn’t been crime in Star City since 2020 — since Oliver’s sacrifice — until the Green Arrow and the Canaries pilot episode reveals that trouble is about to hit Star City hard once again.
The Arrow spin off, Green Arrow and the Canaries, sees Mia Queen in a much different light… until she’s reminded of who she truly is by a few familiar, heroic faces that need her help.
The Arrow-verse is gearing up for their biggest crossover to date, “Crisis on Infinite Earths,” which will see the multi-verse threatened with something bigger than ever… so why aren’t all of the heroes fully participating?
After the better part of a decade, The CW’s superhero show that spawned a universe on their network will be coming to an end. Get all of the details about Arrow‘s final season here.
On Arrow season 8, episode 1, Oliver travels to Earth-2 (Laurel’s Earth) to fill the shoes of his deceased counterpart (who died when the Queen’s Gambit went over), in order to fulfill his promise to the Monitor.
When we last left Laurel Lance (the Earth-2 version), she had just promised to be worthy of wearing Earth-1 Laurel’s Black Canary suit as she worked to become a hero worthy of her late doppelganger.
