Let's say you're Green Arrow. You fight crime with arrows. You'd think that, because your ability to fire an arrow is critical to your survival, you would probably invest in a pretty strong bow.
You'd think that:
Now, I know that Green Arrow is going to have some pretty mighty biceps and all. He's not superhuman, but all that archery is going give you some muscle development. I had the same thing happen to me when I was fourteen and worked at a Baskin-Robbins. The only problem is, I only developed the muscles in my "dipping arm." But I digress.
If a non-superhuman person can snap a bow, I'm prepared to say you're using some dangerously cheap equipment. I don't know whether Ollie picked it up off Craigslist or what, but until you have a bow that you can't just snap in the middle using nothing more than your upper body strength as you're falling upside-down, it's time to upgrade. I'm just saying.
Ugh. I'm tired. Let's just see Batman riding a winged tiger and call it a day:
Ahhhh. Thanks, World's Finest #282! While I've got you here, how about Superman fighting a dragon that looks like an iguana?
Comics, no wonder we love you so.
See you tomorrow!

Maybe Ollie built in a failsafe so the bow would break easily in that one spot? Nah. That's giving the writers way too much credit.
The head is more dinosaur-y, but the body of that dragon is hilariously accurate to a real life iguana.
Batman riding a tiger? Dare I even ask....?
GA didn't have a grappling-hook arrow in his quiver?
I'm sure he did in a previous story...
I'm with LissBirds on that one...exactly what I was thinking! lol
