10 Things Everyone Always Gets Wrong About Green Arrow

10. Black Canary Is His Only Love Interest

Black Canary #4
DC Comics

The Black Canary/Green Arrow partnership is legendary in the medium.

They're by far DC's greatest power couple (sorry, Bat-cat shippers), with their relationship having survived death, resurrection and, by far their most impressive feat, multiple alterations to the DC Multiverse. It might be surprising, then, to discover that Ollie and Dinah haven't always been the item fans know and love.

While Dinah is and should always be his main love, Oliver has, over the years, briefly had romances with Arrowette and Sandra Hawk, the mother of his son, Connor. While Arrow fans may point towards Shado as being another love interest, the character's comic book roots are an entirely different matter altogether, and is someone who definitely shouldn't be included in a list of Ollie's loves.
