Roger Parsons shares more than a colorfully clad alias with Oliver Queen, he shared a passion for justice and its instrument of delivery in his hands. Shaped by tragedy, these men made legends for themselves in worlds filled with superhumans. They had similarities and differences.
Roger Parson was an orphan early in life when criminals took his parents' lives, much like Queen's ward Roy Harper.
Learning to mastery archery, these men found outlets for their aggressions towards to criminal element around them.
As the Golden Arrow and Green Arrow, one revealed his identity to the world while the other was as masked man.
Both the golden age Oliver and Roger were tied to the American old west from which they derived their inspiration.
While Speedy became Green Arrow's sidekick, Golden Arrow's only partner was his horse, White Wind.
These men were more confortable on their own then with teammates, although even Roger on occasion met his fellow heroes.
A frequent ally of Roger's and Oliver's were energy-wielding warriors in Ibis and Green Lantern.
