But I can understand being so attached to a character that the change doesn't work for you. I have that with other characters, but not Ollie.

Ollie was but the tip of the iceberg. It was all the changing done to Dinah/Black Canary/etc. I'd never taken to Smallville's idea for her, and only got to where I could cope with Dinah on Birds of Prey because they also gave me Carolyn Lance with the truer Black Canary vibe (and a side dish of OMG Carolyn/Babs in the subtext).

Some characters, I love AU-ing to oblivion and back again. But some core traits need to stay, even in a full on Mirror Verse. And I couldn't find enough to resonate with me for the entire mess that is the women of Arrow.
