Biography
After The Hood threatened Adam Hunt and put two of his bodyguards in the hospital Adam Hunt hired Constantine Drakon as his new head of security.
After reporting the incident to the police, he told them to communicate with Drakon from now on. Drakon puts together a heavily armed team and awaits the Hood's arrival at Hunt's office. When Hunt is annoyed by noises from upstairs, Drakon reveals to him that there is a party for the return of Oliver Queen in the next building. Unbeknownst to both, Oliver and the Hood are the same people.
While they wait for the Hood's arrival, Oliver scales the exterior of the building and infiltrates the office through a window. He is able to easily take out Drakon's men and even briefly confronts Hunt but Drakon then engages him in combat, forcing Oliver to let Hunt go.
Instead, Oliver wrestles Drakon to the floor and although they seem to be evenly matched at first, Oliver is soon able to overpower Drakon and even disarm him once he draws a knife.
Although Oliver can wrestle Drakon to the floor, Drakon then picks up a gun from one of his fallen henchmen. He starts firing at Oliver who jumps out of the way and - mid-air - hurls a flechette into Drakon's heart, instantly killing him. Although having paid for it with his life, Constantine still succeeded in protecting Adam Hunt because he escaped the confrontation alive. However, during the attack, Oliver managed to steal all of Hunt's money - rendering him bankrupt.
