Tommy didn't ask him to stop killing, rather Tommy reacted with disgust when he learn that Oliver was the Hood. Then Oliver couldn't deal with the fact that his best friend died thinking that Oliver was no better than a common killer.

Yeah but then we got halucination Tommy and it was awesome.

Batman's thing is no guns, people. None of them kill.

This is wrong, most superheroes have killed at least a few people. You must be thinking of GI Joes, Joes don't kill.

Also Batman uses guns sometimes, he just doesn't fire them at people because guns can kill. His thing is no killing.

The obvious compromise is for Diggle to not secretly be John Stewart but still become a Green Lantern for maximum confusion and canon related rageposts.

And then he turns out to have been the Martian Manhunter all along.

He should be Mr Terrific, revealed to secretly be a martian, and then the ring comes to him and he becomes the green Lantern.

Well Static and Icon are Milestone Media characters. I'm not sure what the legal agreements between them and DC, but DC might not have free use of them.

Borrowing Oracle is the least of this show's problems vs. the source material. They're doing as much as they can to stay away from the liberal politics that define the character. Even when he's running for office, you hear practically nothing about what exactly he wants to change.
Remember when the Green Arrow didn't need a goddamn earthquake machine as a reason to go after the greedy and exploitative?

Actually the character is defined by wearing green and shooting arrows.

Yeah almost like it's built off some other character in popular culture... something about taking from the rich and giving to the poor but he's pretty obscure you've probably never heard of him

His campaign manager criticized him for some hippy dippy initiative he wanted to do, so it's in there. They might expand on it or they might not.

Its not like telling stories about Green Arrow is Liberal automatically created good stories. There's plenty of overreaching dreck through the years; I remember Judd Winick's Arrow being very political and not in a good way. At all.

You have to keep in mind that it's a TV show broadcast on a network station; making the protagonist too political could potentially alienate parts of the audience. I don't like it, but I can understand why they might shy away from that kind of characterization.
