Edward "Eddie" Fyers is initially employed by the
CIA to kill the rogue archer
Shado. He appeared frequently in Mike Grell's run on the
Green Arrow ongoing series, occasionally in the summer bi-weekly Green Arrow arcs with Shado. Over the course of his appearances, Fyers becomes a reluctant ally of Oliver Queen, aka
Green Arrow. After Grell left the
Green Arrow series at issue #80,
Chuck Dixon and
Jim Aparo further developed Fyers's character. Fyers becomes a father figure to
Connor Hawke, Oliver's son and the second to bear the name Green Arrow. Fyers cares for Connor after Oliver is killed in a plane explosion near
Metropolis while fighting off eco-terrorists. Eddie Fyers re-appears in Green Arrow comics following
DC Rebirth. This version of the character is a mercenary and member of the
Ninth Circle, an international criminal organization and bank. ==In other media==
