He’s so lame 💔

if Roy Harper had a nickel for every time he dated a black-haired green-eyed assassin from the league of shadows whose entire personality consists of sarcasm and ultimately left him to bleed himself dry he'd have two nickles, which what the fuck, Roy

eepy roy harper and jade nguyen 🫶🏽

I know it doesn’t look like it but I put so much effort in this (og post)

I still don't really understand the concept of OTPs ngl. Like?? How do people pick one pairing?? Jaderoy has the hero/villain angst plus the forever connected through their daughter. Donnaroy has the "right person wrong time" times a thousand, and the "I loved you when I met you and I never stopped". Dickroy's the "I love you but I will not tolerate your shit", and the connection of being the two non-powered humans on the team. Roygarth has the "our relationship was strained for years due to misunderstandings, and since we've grown up we've worked to build a relationship based on communication and boundaries" potential. How can I choose one that I prefer.

Hello! Do you have any recommendations for Roy Harper reading? I'm not bothered about which continuity or where, just if you had a suggestion for where you think he's best 👀

If you wanna go back to some older stuff you can check out the silver age green arrow comics and Teen Titans 1966, I'm not the BIGGEST fan of TT 1966 but it does have some cute and funny moments. I mainly read Bronze Age to Modern age so we'll go with that moving forward. Green Lantern(1960) #85-86 This is Snow Birds don't fly and Roy's most iconic story, It introdcues Roy's struggle with heroin and is pretty sympathetic to addicts which was QUITE the big deal at the time. I also think its important for to me say Ollie is not the best parent in this one, he reacts out of anger and is incredibly upset with both Roy and himself for Roy's addiction. OLLIE DOES LOVE ROY AND IS USUALLY QUITE A GOOD PARENT, THIS IS ONE MOMENT THAT DOES NOT DEFINE HIM OR HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH ROY. MUST READ not just for Roy but for comic book history in general Action Comics(1939) #32 This one is a small one shot thats post snowbirds. Roy is on his own but it shows that he and Ollie still care about eachother and that Ollie really misses Roy. The New Titans(1984) #20-21 THE REVEAL OF LIAN'S EXISTENCE !!!!! ALSO JADEROY!! also itty bitty robin Jason is in this story. ABSOLUTE MUST READ Action Comics(1938) #613-618 I LOVE THIS STORY I LOVE THIS STORY I LOVE THIS STORY. It hurts me but i love it... Jade and Roy and Lian... It also shows how Roy ended up getting Lian. other than that I will say no more... ABSOLUTE MUST READ Titans(1999) #1-2 Lot's of Cute content with Roy and Lian here. I wouldn't consider it an absolute must read but again its fucking adorable so i recommend it. Titans(1999) #6 Donna Kyle and Roy beat up a Nazi with a tragic backstory or whatever, meanwhile Lian is being babysit by someone her mom has personally affected.

Titans(1999) #8-13 JADEROY!!! JADEROY!!!! LIAN!!!! Deals with the aftermath of the previous rec. Also some DonnaRoy which is admittedly cute. This story kinda covers all the moral complications of Roy and Jade and Lian. How Jade's crimes affect them all, as well as how Roy feels about Jade. I would consider this one a must read. Titans(1999) #21-22 Aftermath of previous rec, Chesire is being held to be tried. I realize a lot of these recs are relate to JadeRoy and Lian but they are so important to his character. If you enjoyed the previous story read this one, but i wouldn't recommend it in a vacuum. Titans(1999) #30 More JadeRoy, I am predictable. This is Jade's trial. If you like the previous two storylines read this. It makes me sad it makes me emo I love Jade so much and she went through so much and it doesnt excuse here actions but it still hurts. Roy makes a decision. Roy appears prominently in The Outsiders but i haven't read it all yet so i can't speak on it. Green Arrow(2001) 1-10 This is an ArrowFam MUST READ. Ollie returns from the dead, mia is introduced, Ollie and Connor, and Ollie reuinites with Roy and Dinah. It's very good. Green Arrow(2001) #16-21 General ArrowFam goodness. Ollie and Roy Goodness. Just,,, emotions.... Ollie is Roy''s dad... I weep...

Justice Leauge of America(2006) #1 Roy and his Uncle Hal :). Also Roy joins the JLA

There's more probably but this list is getting pretty full. These are also all in chronological order so :333. as a sort of anti- recommendation if you want to read an absolutely awful roy that is horrible in every way and want to be mad about it read rhato. its awful!

ROY HARPER AND HELLO KITTY HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY WHAT

this panel is SO funny to me. they are BESTIES, your honor. JADE AND ROSE SUPREMACY

on that note….

jayrose and jaderoy double date when…..

if there's one thing that both jason todd and roy harper have in common (btw, i'm not shipping these two characters at all before anyone gets the wrong idea (and to be honest i prefer the second version of the outlaws compared to the first anyways)), it's that they have the exact same taste in woman: woman who can kill and will them if given the chance.

Titans (1999) #30

:((((

im not even going to lie the moment roy abandoned the titans to carry a wounded jade to safety i burst out laughing so hard

wound and knife, 2k+, one-shot.

“Let me say it plain: I loved someone and failed at it. Let me say it another way: I like to call myself wound but I will answer to knife.” — Underbelly, Nicole Homer

When Jade and Roy laid it all out on the table. The New Teen Titans (1984) #21, extended.

We better get Jade Nguyen x Roy Harper in the dcu teen titans movie

“And for a bad guy, she was pretty good”

Wanted to practice drawing backgrounds and lighting and came up with this

i truly cannot give a flying fuck on how some people who don't ship them (or even hate them) saw them as "unhealthy" or "toxic" bla bla bla

On the softer side of things have this preview of one of my pieces for the @royharperzine !
