Classic Comics with Matthew B. Lloyd: Green Arrow and Speedy

Episode 21 Notes- “The Amazing Archers” – The Golden Age Green Arrow and Speedy

After reading The Golden Age Green Arrow Omnibus Volume 1 I couldn’t resist doing this episode! The Green Arrow and Speedy celebrate their 80thAnniversary this year! In this episode I take a look at the characters in the Golden Age as well as compare them a bit with their more familiar modern counterparts.
