would knightfall make a good arrow storyline?

Therefore, I have been read the storyline, I have gotten through the first volume, and I thought that it would work on arrow. Now I know you would have to change the story since it is the green arrow not batman and it would have different characters, but adaptations of storylines from the comic rarely are faithful to the comic. Lots of might like to see it in a Batman movie, but you could not do that storyline justice when you condense each of those three volumes into one of the three acts. On arrow you have a superhero that can fit the role batman played and villains already established like the ones that bane broke out in the comics. Lastly, in a TV show you could take time to set up the storyline and display it just as they did in the comic but with different characters.

what do you think?

No.

No, but that probably won't stop them from doing it.

Arrow is Green Batman with a bow.

No, you cant just take Batman stories and slap some other hero in them. Would you put Zatanna in The Dark Knight Returns? You just cant do that. Does Green Arrow lack good stories or something? Arrow needs to stop stealing from Batman.

I hope to god that in season 4 Oliver stops being a Batman knock off and he actually acts like you know GREEN ARROW.

No.

It was bad enough last season having Ra's al Ghul, so definitely no to this.

No Arrow got to stop ripping off batman

Stahp.

Arrow honestly needs come up with it's own villians or atleast use Villains from when he first started crime-fighting and twist them. We already have that fked up Komodo adaptaions.

So whats next? Arrow using The Killing Joke storyline? Heart of Hush? Court of Owls? What other BATMAN storyline can Arrow take? Does Green Arrow suck so much that it has to take stuff from Batman's stories to make its show entertaining? C'mon man!

He doesn't. Little do people know that the only major villain in Arrow that was taken from Batman is Ra's. They aren't going to copy iconic story-lines that are some of the definitive tales for other heroes.

NO

If they job Bane to Ollie I bomb CW headquarters!

I'm guessing Firefly, Nyssa Raatko and many others are just a figment of people's imagination, then.

Arrow has been copying Batman for a LONG time.

Yes, because they're major villains.

They should use the Hush storyline. Oliver will kiss Catwoman once and act like a 12 year old for the remainder of the season.

@imperfect_cell: Major Batman villains! Plus they made Count Vertigo a poor man's Scarecrow.

WILL YOU STOP USING AND SUGGESTING BATMAN STORYLINES. GREEN ARROW HAS A FAIR SHARE OF GOOD STORYLINES TOO YOU KNOW!

If you honestly believe Firefly has had an impact on Batman like someone like Bane has I don't know what to say to you.

@imperfect_cell: No, but you just said he was a major villain in general and I was saying he only matters in Batman's world.

If you asked him, Batman literally couldn't tell you Firefly's real name.

I can already hear the cries of rage from comic fans if this happens.

@imperfect_cell: What makes you say that?

@maccyd: Lol! True dat.

@impervious: He does ?

@darling_luna: I'm not even going to bother with you this time, Luna.

Especially such an easily recognizable one.

@impervious: Kee

That's actually a good definition.

Haha because why not steal more from Batman huh?

The show is starting to put themselves in a position to jump out of the Batman shadow.

Doing this would be a big step back.

Next villain should be the Joker that cripples Felicity and puts her on a wheelchair

@bat_saint: 24 hour ban for that comment. Obscenities and graphic language are not allowed on the forums.

I think they might go that way and that would be the worst idea ever. They should stop making Arrow a Batman rip-off that isn't even half as good as anything Batman related.

It certainly made a good Batman story.

It's bad enough that season two was essentially Dark Knight Rises with Deathstroke. I wouldn't be surprised if they did a Black Glove storyline down the line too.

@imperfect_cell said:

So it only counts if they're "major"? What do you define as major? Bane isn't really major on par with Ra's al Ghul either. Hugo Strange isn't major. Does that mean Arrow can rip-off Batman: Prey? Ratcatcher isn't major. Does that mean Arrow can just shove him in, no problem whatsoever?

Goodness gracious, Arrow fans continue to impress me with the lengths they go to avoid admitting that Arrow rips-off Batman.

@orangebat said:

I never said they weren't copying villains, I said they weren't copying major villains, as in iconic villains, sans Ra's Al Ghul is you consider him iconic.

Arrow is pretty similar to Batman, but the villains don't prove that.

@orangebat: And I'm also not particularly fond of Arrow outside of Season 2.

@imperfect_cell said:

???

"Arrow needs to stop stealing from Batman." "He doesn't."

So, now you're saying that he does in fact steal from Batman?

@orangebat: Well **** me for not remembering things I said 3 days ago. Yeah, they take some of Batman's villains.

@imperfect_cell said:

OK, glad we got that sorted.

No thanks,and I have a bad feeling the real baddie of this season may also be a Batman rogue. It could be Bane,KGBeast or Talia.

Its kinda blatant how Arrow continues to adopt the Nolan-eque batman approach upon the various batman villians they keep introducing to Arrow.
