10 Plot Holes You Haven't Noticed In The Arrowverse
10. The Green Arrow Of Earth-2
Arrow's eighth season has been the closest the show has come to perfection since its acclaimed second offering, but there was one moment that left a few of the Arrowverse's more clued-in fans a little confused. That moment came in the season premiere 'Starling City' in which Oliver Queen traveled to Earth-2 to procure Dwarfstar particles for The Monitor.
While there, he was confronted by the Black Canary herself, Laurel Lance. But she wasn't alone, as she was receiving help from that earth's Hood Adrian Chase. Though the pair made a formidable team, it didn't make sense with what he we had been told before.
All the way back on The Flash's second season, a news bulletin revealed that the Hood had already been unmasked and that his identity was Robert Queen - Oliver's father who had been driven to crime-fighting after the death of his son on the Gambit.
While it's always possible that Chase was Queen's successor, this was never explained and thus, came off as a plot inconsistency more than anything else. Though the showrunners have since attempted to explain away the fan queries with the 'multiple Green Arrows' philosophy, it would have made more sense if those lines were actually in the show.
