10 Most Devastating TV Deaths Of 2019
3. Oliver Queen - Crisis On Infinite Earths (Arrow)
We knew this was coming, but it didn’t make it any less a tear jerker. It’s been eight seasons since Stephen Amell first donned the green hood and became television’s most famous vigilante. This was until last year when it was confirmed Oliver would indeed be meeting his end during the massive Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover and so, while battling the Anti-Monitor’s hordes of Shadow Demons, the Green Arrow made his final stand, saving over a billion of Earth-38’s population before his body could no longer continue.
He then bid an emotional farewell to his daughter and friends, entrusting them with the fate of the multiverse. And yes, sure enough he would make his return very soon in the form of the Spectre, but this was still the effective end of the character we had come to love and adore for the better part of the decade.
