10 Most Unhinged Comic Book Characters
9. Arsenal
No, it's not just crazy to be an Arsenal fan (that's a football joke, right?), it was crazy to be Arsenal for a while. Starting his vigilante career as Green Arrow's plucky sidekick, Arsenal was given a boost of gritty realism in the story 'Snowbirds Don't Fly' where the Green Lantern revealed to Green Arrow, now somewhat famously, that his ward 'is a junkie!'.
Though he did eventually clean himself up (oddly with the help of Killer Croc acting as his AA sponsor because why not) Arsenal continued to struggle with the temptation of drugs for years to come, often using his experience as a lesson for anyone dealing with their own demons.
Despite all this character development and the many triumphs of Arsenal there's still one image that lingers in the collective minds of comic book fans. One story showed Arsenal high as a kite and going crazy (emphasis on the 'crazy') on street thugs. Batman had to track him down and when he did...Well, he found Arsenal in an alley clutching a dead cat. The guy thought the cat was his daughter. That's not exactly sane, is it?
