10 Most Paused Arrowverse Moments
7. Laurel Lance’s Death
Ah yes, Arrow Season Four. Otherwise known as 'the bad one'.
One of the reasons why it’s considered the bad one is because of Laurel Lance’s death. From the beginning of the season a death was foreshadowed, and we were constantly guessing who. Besides Oliver, the one character audiences thought would be safe was Laurel.
Seeing her die was such a gut punch. It doesn’t help that the writers constantly kept doing her wrong. Her death remains even sadder given how Oliver was able to resurrect everyone during Crisis on Infinite Earths, but her.
Laurel’s death would go on to affect other shows as well. Sara almost killed Rip Hunter in Legends of Tomorrow upon finding out, and Team Flash was hesitant about fighting Black Siren because Laurel had just died.
If Green Arrow and the Canaries is ever picked up by The CW or HBO Max, hopefully they can find away to bring her back. Laurel truly deserved better.
