• Oliver's Return: A battered and bruised Oliver Queen, who was believed to be dead, reappears at the "Arrow Cave." He is older, wiser, and physically resembles his classic pre-New 52 self with more facial hair.
• The Mission: Oliver reveals he has been investigating a global threat. He gives Emiko a mysterious green pyramid to deliver to Lois Lane and prepares for a final assault on Cadmus Island to free imprisoned heroes from Earth-2.
• The Sacrifice: To maintain his status as a "ghost" and complete his mission, Oliver uses the shapeshifter Magus to fake his public death at the hands of Deathstroke.
