This title is one of my favorites right now.
Yeah, DC has really pulled a 180 with this one. It’s fantastic.
I have really liked it as well since Lemire & Sorrentino have taken over.
I’m so torn. I recognize that this is a good comic. It’s interesting, the art is good, and what came before it in the new 52 was just awful. But…

I am really not pleased about this Outsiders, Clan of the Arrow, Axe/Fist/Shield/Sword/Spear/??? business. It seems so much like whatever’s going on in Green Lantern world with their tribes and the whole rainbow. Or even like what we’re about to get with JL vs. JLA vs. JLD. Or Lemire’s Rot vs. Red vs. Green. I’m not sure we need more warring factions, and honestly, I don’t know that Green Arrow needs this whole completely new complex mythology. Throughout his history, Ollie has mostly just been one guy, and a lot of writers put together great stories without giving him a convoluted mythology about Clans devoted to weapons and Oliver having to reach enlightenment and finding totems. While part of me appreciates the effort and can see that it’s being well done, I just don’t like the direction it’s going at all, and all likelihood, I’m going to have to drop this if it keeps going that way.
I liked this book up until this issue. Oh well.
Yeah, I wasn’t as impressed with this issue either. But the art alone gives it 4 stars from me.
