An establishment liberal figure
In the early 1970s, Green Arrow became a co-feature with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Lantern (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hal_Jordan) in an acclaimed series of stories by O'Neil and Adams that dealt with various social and political issues. The two co-stars served to represent contrasting sociopolitical viewpoints: Green Arrow spoke for radical change while Green Lantern was an establishment liberal figure, wanting to work within existing institutions of government and law.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Arrow#cite_note-back45-8
