This World’s Finest Wednesday takes us back to More Fun Comics Issue 73 (1941), the very first appearance of Green Arrow and Speedy.

In The Case of the Namesake Murders, Oliver Queen and Roy Harper face off against a killer targeting members of a history club—murdering them the same way their famous namesakes died. Abraham Lincoln, Achilles, Socrates… nobody’s safe. There are electrified rugs, a criminal getaway on stilts, and a whole lot of the Arrowplane (Which is a Car).

But that’s not all! We also look at Adventure Comics Issue 241 (1957) and the one (and only) appearance of the mysterious Queen Arrow. She’s a sleepwalking superfan who collects Ollie’s arrows, dresses up in costume, and nearly outshines the Emerald Archer.
