Green Arrow

Check out scenes from this week's episode, guest starring Green Arrow, Catwoman, The Outsiders, and Psycho Pirate!

By Scott An example of thematic recycling is the famous cover to Justice League of America #4, where Green Arrow joins. The idea of being trapped inside a giant diamond was previously used on the cover for Mystery in Space #9 (August-September, 1952).

By Brian Cronin Okay, in case you didn't see the introduction, the concept is that each day up to and including the 23rd of November, I'll be posting four iconic covers from DC Comics' 75-year history. On the 23rd, you folks will get a chance to pick your Top 10 out of the 90 choices. I'll tabulate the votes and I...

By noreply@blogger.com (Adama) Batman: The Brave and the Bold #10: Green Arrow joins The Atom in battle against a giant, mutated Batman! I love Green Arrow's appearances in this comic, and apparently so do the writers! Batman even refers to GA as his best friend at one point. Thanks for all the GA love, guys!

By jsaroundtable So between Superman (Clark Kent), Green Arrow (Oliver Queen) and Det. John Jones, and Hawkman (Carter Hall), Dr. Fate (Kent Nelson) and Stargirl (Courtney Whitmore), we’re looking at the first live-action crossover between the JLA and JSA!

By Bill Reed From here, we get a great slow-motion love ballad to the Caped Crusader from Black Canary, with what might be the line of the night: "If only he could love me like he loves fighting villains!" It segues into a duet with the Music Meister as he reveals his unrequited crush on the Canary, contra...

By noreply@blogger.com (Adama) As an added bonus, we get a double shot of GA family awesomeness. Toward the bottom of the shirt, we have Roy Harper in his Red Arrow costume! Here's a closer look: Again, we have an archer drawing his bow to fire off screen. I was very surprised to see Roy on an item of merchandising, especially i...

By noreply@blogger.com (Adama) Before we get to the story, we get a mail in card to join the Kenner Super Powers fan club. which apparently got you a bunch of swag and discounts on DC comics for $3.50. Not bad! Anyway, the action starts off in Star City, where the Martian Manhunter is presenting Green Arrow with an award! Appare...

By noreply@blogger.com (collectededitions) Four trade paperbacks ago (roughly fourteen issues of collected comics), Judd Winick ended Green Arrow and began Green Arrow/Black Canary. Since then, Winick has essentially told just one story, that of Green Arrow Oliver Queen's globe-spanning search to find his missing son Connor H...

By legacysword@gmail.com (Kevin) The opening to this episode with Batman and Green Arrow trying to one up each other while stopping Joker and then Catwoman was a lot of fun to watch and one of the best openings so far. I'm sure a lot of the older DC Comics fans will enjoy it as it is a nice callback to when Green Arrow would always ha...

By noreply@blogger.com (collectededitions) Judd Winick positions the Green Arrow/Black Canary team firmly in the midst of the DC Universe, in a way that's only logical for two married heroes whose friends and family are all superheroes. In the first volume, Green Arrow shouts to Superman for help (he shouts "Clark," for that matter...

 CA by Dan Phillips March 11, 2009 - It's strange – I really want to love the Green Arrow/Black Canary series. I love Green Arrow as a character. I'm a big fan of Black Canary when she's handled well, which she is here. I even like Green Arrow's goofy ...

By noreply@blogger.com (collectededitions) Green Arrow: Year One is a re-telling of the origin of Green Arrow by writer Andy Diggle and artist Jock (real name Mark Simpson) that tries to do what Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli did for Batman to its title character. Although it might not be quite up to the standard of the sublime Bat...

After a year-long story arc in which Ollie and Dinah were forced to play second fiddle to Batman in their own title and Connor Hawke was turned into a generic martial artist with a healing factor, most Arrowheads were glad to see Judd Winick step off the book. <br /><br />Saying...

By Ryan Scott The idea of comic book superheroes (and villains) duking it out with the Mortal Kombat series' eclectic cast of costumed weirdos goes well beyond the realm of absurd. Yet, somewhat ironically, this ridiculous concept is the best thing that's happened to MK in the past 13 years. After all, w...

In a word, Kevin Smith's take on Batman is annoying. Kevin's Batman is tired.  Whiny. He's two steps behind second string villains such as Deadshot and the afore mentioned Cacophony (who is a virtual unknown to those who've yet to read Smith's run on Green Arrow like me).

By noreply@blogger.com (collectededitions) Much as I was looking forward to Dwayne McDuffie's post Justice League Unlimited work on the main comic book series, I unfortunately found myself disappointed.

By John Scott Lewinski On the D.C. Comics side, Guy Ritchie is now officially attached to direct a Sgt.

By Brian Cronin You tend to notice the trick arrows a lot in a Green Arrow story, and not just because some of them are so ludicrous that you can’t imagine them being fired. They’re notable because they’re really the only thing that is notable about Green Arrow in the 1950s and 60s. The character really doesn’...

By Tim We also saw the Smallville debut of fan-favorite heroine, Black Canary. I thought she looked great. What I love about Smallville heroes (or heroines in this case), is that they’re given fresh new origins and still tying them to the Smallville universe. Having her work as a vigilante for Lex a...

By rachelle In the friendship pairing of Oliver Queen and Hal Jordan, Oliver is the reckless one. Consider that. Well, that's respectable. I don't think anyone would name Oliver Queen as the sexiest super hero. Unless we're talking about the Smallville version. Because...damn.

By collectededitions As with many other of DC Comic's post-Infinite Crisis One Year Later stories, Crawling Through the Wreckage is something of a second origin for Green Arrow, but Winick's story raises the character beyond credibility. Winick writes a furious battle between Green Arrow and Deathstroke,...

By Jason Chen If you asked us what DC superhero we'd love to be and said we couldn't be Batman, Superman, the Martian Manhunter, Robin, Nightwing, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, Power Girl, or the Flash, we'd probably choose Green Lantern.

We also talk informally about Batman, Detective, Batman Confidential, Green Arrow, Robin, Freddie Williams B-day, Blue Beetle, the Atom, Books of Magic, Invisibles, Papa Midnight, Starman, Grendel, the Shade miniseries the most recent Sandman Mystery Theater and more in just plai...

By Shelly Now it can be argued that you can get so far from the original material that it's hardly worth referring to the original. Why use Green Arrow at all if he won't BE Green Arrow, that sort of thing. But if it's well done and there's a sense of who and what GA is, then I'm fine with it.

By Tim I did like however the proto-costume for Green Arrow thy ended up using though, especially with the green war paint adorning Oliver’s chest and back and especially over his eyes, which I think was a nice homage to the comic book Green Arrow costume.

By collectededitions JLA: World Without a Justice League functions, rather strangely, as something of a sequel to Justice League Elite; at least, if you're a big fan of Manitou Dawn (all two of you), this is the trade for you.

By collectededitions The Elite, as first introduced in Action Comics #775, were intended simply as parodies of the Authority.
