Brick (Daniel "Danny" Brickwell) is a DC Comics supervillain and enemy of Green Arrow. Although his origin has not been revealed, Brick is a metahuman with a reddish, stony skin that granted him immense strength and durability. His success as an underworld kingpin was due to his brilliant criminal mind rather than these superhuman powers.
Daniel Brickwell appeared as a recurring character on The CW Arrowverse series Arrow, played by Vinnie Jones.
Brick first appeared in Green Arrow vol. 3 #40 (September 2004), and was created by writer Judd Winick and artist Phil Hester.
Brick is a low-level henchman and enforcer who seeks to fill the power vacuum present in Star City. He battles Green Arrow before being defeated in a duel for ownership of Star City.
Brick hires Deathstroke to destroy Green Arrow's house as a member of Alexander Luthor Jr.'s Secret Society of Super Villains.[1]
In One Year Later, after Doctor Light and Merlyn destroy most of Star City,[2] Brick begins fighting crimes that he does not approve of.[3]
Brick is apparently killed by Cupid, but later resurfaces and attempts to kidnap a young girl to extort money from her parents before Miss Martian stops him.[4]
In The New 52 reboot of DC's continuity, Brick is reintroduced as one of Richard Dragon's Longbow Hunters, who aim to kill Green Arrow because of the $30 million bounty Dragon put out on him.[5]
Brick re-appears in Green Arrow comics following DC Rebirth. He is a mercenary and member of the "Ninth Circle", an international criminal organization and bank alongside Eddie Fyers, Shado, and Cheshire.[6]
Brick's primary power is his invulnerability. He can easily withstand a surface-to-air missile strike and numerous attacks from Green Arrow's arrows. Brick possesses an unproven level of super strength: he clearly outmatched Green Arrow fist to fist, but did not or could not win with a single hit. He is also a highly effective criminal leader, able to gain control of Star City's entire underworld, as well as having great influence over the legal authorities.[7]
