Arrow is (yet another) retelling of the DC Comic character Green Arrow. Our story begins with Oliver Queen, millionaire playboy, being rescued from an island where he has spent the last 5 years struggling to survive. He returns home to a mother and a sister who had thought him dead and a life that is barely as he remembers. He uses the skills learned on the island to become The Hood, a bow and arrow welding vigilante that cuts down the corrupt upper class that are bleeding the city of all of it's resources. This mix isn't about that though. It's about a brother and sister that were everything to each other having their other half ripped away. Five years of believing her brother to be dead, Thea is barely holding herself together. Molding herself into the same image the city had of her brother, party all night, waste away all day. Then her brother is back. Alive but different. Five years of thinking he would never see his baby sister again. Five years of regret for all the things he wasted, people he didn't appreciate. He returns home to a sister that doesn't know how to live with him. She just wants him to be the old Oliver, the real Oliver again, and all he sees when he looks at her is who he used to be. million miles between us
