The Green Arrow comes to Smallville
From K-Site
quote: Green Arrow Comes To Smallville!
TV Guide's July 24 edition, now arriving in subscriber mailboxes with a nifty Tom Welling cover, has a BIG scoop -- that the DC Comics character of Oliver Queen, better known to fans as Green Arrow, will be making an appearance in Smallville for a story arc that will go for "at least seven episodes."
"He will start to form the nascent Justice League," Smallville executive producer Alfred Gough tells TV Guide in this week's issue. "He's trying to find like-minded people with special powers and put a more formal structure in place."
The article goes on to say that Clark will initially be wary of Green Arrow, much like he was when future characters such as the Flash or Aquaman showed up in previous seasons. "Ultimately Clark will see the value of what he is trying to do," Gough says. "But as he's gotten older, Clark has become more cautious. He will always be there to help out, but he doesn't want to be part of a formalized organization."
Just as big as the announcement of the character is the casting - Justin Hartley, who played the role of AC/Aquaman in Millar & Gough's Aquaman pilot will be playing the role of Ollie.
The article says that Hartley was quickly offered the Smallville gig. "What really appealed to us is that he has a great combination of sexiness and humor," Gough says.
TV Guide does not reveal when Oliver will first appear on the show, though here at KryptonSite, we are hearing that he may show up as early as the season's second episode, "Sneeze." (Visit the KryptonSite spoilers page for more about the new season!)
TV Guide also reveals that Lois Lane will take a romantic interest in the emerald archer.
Also in this week's article is one of the first print mentions of Aaron Ashmore's casting as Jimmy Olsen, who will be a recurring guest star. "In our first episode back, they reconnect," Gough says. "And so Chloe Sullivan finally gets a boyfriend."

This is going to be great! I was worried that Aquaman was gonna play Green Arrow, but realized it wasn't the same guy from season 5! Silly me!
Green Arrow is kick ass, and I look forward to this arc. Adding another established superhero is a great catch for this season, and may add a little more pep to the stories. Big Blue and the Emerald Archer... TOGETHER!!!

Seems to be a re-occuring theme. Lois and people who have above normal abilities.

He doesn't as far as I know. He's a pretty stupid character, basically he's just Robin Hood all jazzed up.

Hey, **** you! Green Arrow started off as a lame, knock off Batman, but trust me when I say that the emerald archer is pretty badass when you use him properly.
And no, I don't mean as toilet paper! He's got a whole history of being a hero to the people. Try reading Kevin Smith's run in Green Arrow: Quiver
