The Illegitimate Son
Someone should really have a word with superheroes about safe sex, because it seems like they all have a secret child or two hiding in their past. Batman got the shock of his life when Talia popped up out of the blue and said, “Surprise! This is your son. His name is Damian and he’s a little douche!” And we all know how that turned out for Bruce.
On Arrow, Oliver didn’t wrap his tool, either, and ended up with a little critter named William. He’s the product of a tryst with Samantha Clayton during his party days, and pretty much the reason Felicity and Ollie broke off their engagement. That’s a good enough reason to love William!
However, unlike Damian Wayne, William can’t defend himself and only gets himself kidnapped or taken hostage by Oliver’s enemies. To be completely honest, he’s a bit of a useless character and we only remember he’s alive when he’s the little dude in distress.
Wait… Maybe the plan is for him to become Arrow’s Robin in the future? We certainly hope not.
