Character » Roy Harper appears in 1266 issues.
I kinda liked the "red arrow" jla roy better
I think this new direction he is under is cool and made me like him as a character more.
Thinking back to an old NIGHTWING cover (see below) I kinda think that Roy/Arsenal/Red Arrow's new path was kinda ironic. Loosing a limb is so Luke Skywalker and yet it seems like everyone goes a cybernetic attachment (expect for evil Teen Titan Risk....who is now armless and usless). Loosing a child is ALWAYS tragic for many superheroes (Donna Troy lost her son - Robert and step-daughter - Jennifer, Garth/Tempest lost his son - Cerdian, Aquaman lost Auqababy) as some heroes could eaither cope with their lost or let insanity take over your life....which ROY has now done....from hero to VILLAIN.

I hate CFJ and Rise of arsenal because of what its done to Roy's character
I don't like that his daughter died because she was such a big part of his character and completely changed him. Aswell as that being a recovered heroine addict makes him much more tragic and his new path just gets rid of everything important to him. The new arsenal is cool but I prefer old roy
