Malcolm Merlyn (born c. 1966 as Arthur King) is the husband of the late Rebecca Merlyn and the father of presumed late Thea Queen, Saracon, and Tommy Merlyn. Malcolm is a wealthy and successful businessman CEO of Merlyn Global Group, and was a prominent figure in Starling City. Fueled by the death of his wife during a mugging in the crime-infested area of "The Glades", he went to Nanda Parbat and was trained by the League of Assassins, taking the name Al Sa-Her (Arabic: الساحر; for The Magician). After he left the group and returned to his city, Malcolm became a vigilante known as the Green Arrow. He also now has a team composed of Tommy Merlyn, Lila Michaels, and Noah Kuttler.
