Oliver Queen Chronicles
Edit
Robert Queen doted on his only son and was the first to present him with a bow and arrow, which Oliver was initially uninterested in. Oliver complain to his mother that her and his father never were there to him, always traveling. Moira says that this flight is different and they need to go. Robert and Moira (the real name of Oliver's mother) boarded a plane to meet an influential diplomat, but their plane was sabotaged by Lionel Luthor and crashed, killing the couple on October 14, 1989.
Almost ten years later, his son Oliver was stranded on a remote island after his yacht crew mutinied and left him to die. Curiously, Oliver learned that the island was the same location of his parents' plane crash. He discovered their remains and recovered from the site his parents wedding rings and a note of his mother, Moira, had written to him before the crash.

She never let on to her son Ollie that there were any problems, trying to remain strong for him. Her life would tragically be cut short while on a family trip to Africa where a pride of lions killed her and Robert, in front of Ollie's eyes. This event would prove pivotal in Ollie creating the mantle of Green Arrow.

Among many mysteries of the forest, one day Ollie finds a mysterious woman walking through his forest. He confronts the woman and comes to find that it is the ghost of his mother, Moira. Moira tries to comfort her son, and encourages him not to push away those he loves. She reminds Ollie that despite all that has happened, when all is said and done, he's a good man, needs to forgive himself, and needs to start believing in himself. With Ollie making peace with his mother, she disappears back into the mysterious forest.
