Currently we have separated records for the original Arrow (Ralph Payne) and the Malibu revival of the character (Rick Parker or Ralph Parker). The characters are very similar, with the latter intentionally based on the public domain original. But they have different surnames and are separated in time. For now, these two versions of "The Arrow" are treated as separate characters in this database, although we have seen other databases combine them into a single record.
