Before writing my reviews I read the ones already posted by the iFanboy faithful.  I look for points where I agree with the masses, and points where I see how foolish they are for not sharing my brilliant opinions of comic books.  With Green Arrow Black Canary #8 I find it impossible not to simply echo the other reviews, as everyone seems to be having the same problem as I am with the book.

Have you ever had friends that you always have big plans to do stuff with, but then when you finally get together instead of going on an adventures and getting into scrapes you end up re-watching Superbad on DVD and then talking about who’s your favorite Futurama character. 

Green Arrow Black Canary has become sort of like that for me.  I enjoy the characters, but after a strong start I’m getting the feeling that we’re not accomplishing much together.  With this and the last few issues not a lot seems to be going on or being accomplished but there’s some nice character moments and bits where I smiled. 

I’m enjoying myself.  I just wish I could tell whether or not Ollie was a Zoidberg man or a Fry guy.

  1. And see, if Hal and Ollie and Dinah would sit around for 22 pages discussing Zoidberg vs. Fry?

    I would probably buy that comic.

  3. @Jazzlawyer — How about, ‘Green Lantern & Green Arrow rent DVD sets of all the TV that they missed while they were dead’?  Someone should pitch that to DC.

    Though on the other hand, Hal used to go to baseball games with his buddies when he was the Spectre, so I suppose he could have kept up with ‘JAG’ if he were so inclined.  

  4. True, but maybe they could be watching new shows.  Hal and Ollie watch the latest episode of the Office.  Ollie would keep saying that the English one is better, Hal would say he thought Pam was cuter.

     Think of the cross-promotion, it would make that Marvel / Guiding Light thing seem like… well more lame.
