Joseph Falk

Joseph Falk was a rogue psychotic vigilante. He passed death sentences on those whom he believed had wronged the Glades. This behavior was caused by the murder of his wife during a robbery.

He broadcasted his "sentencing" over the internet on a website called Glades Betrayed. However, he was ultimately killed by Oliver Queen before he could kill Roy Harper. After the murder of his wife, Joseph became a deeply disturbed and violent man, driven insane from his grief. Desperate to change the Glades, he became self-righteousness and began acting as judge, jury and executioner on those who he believed had wronged the Glades that he deemed worthy of it. Joseph's delusions arrogantly made him think that he was saving the city from criminals.

However, in truth, he only did it to make himself feel better at failing to get justice for his wife as his targets were only scrupulous individuals who never technically broke the law or petty thieves that never truly harmed anyone. Ultimately, he was a hypocrite for claiming that he was only going after criminals when he himself was guilty of breaking the law.

When confronted by Oliver Queen (under the persona of the Hood) a man who also has killed people, the vigilante attempted to reason with him and make him accept that his actions were too excessive and ultimately would help no one as his actions were only serving to mask his own pain.

Despite Oliver understanding Joseph's pain, the deranged criminal refused to back down, convinced that his actions were justified determined to continue his actions in cold blood and no remorse. Ultimately, Oliver was forced to kill him to save Joseph's next victim as the remorseless widower was beyond reason and would never had stopped.
