Green Arrow #1 Spoilers and Review.
The book opens with a frustrated Oliver Queen aka Green Arrow believing he’s washed up on the shores of an island again, but all is not as it seems.
We then get a recap of the Green Arrow origins for readers to understand the patriarch of the Green Arrow Family.
Oliver Queen notes he’s a family man as we pivot to Earth to meet the rest of the Green Arrow Family starting with Roy Harper and Connor Hawke.
Then we get reaquainted with our matriarch Dinah Lance, but she gets a Black Canary logo will Roy and Connor just had their names logo’d.
We then meet Chesire Cat who is Roy’s daughter Lian Harper whose mother is assassin Jade Nguyen aka Chesire.
Then we get right into the action as all of the GA Family, with the exception of Roy Harper, are teleported somewhere with Lian telling he dad to seek of Amanda Waller of Suicide Squad and Taskforce X infamy.
Looks like Lian Harper is teleported to wherever Oliver Queen is.
She’s attacked by a robotic Manhunter, a precursor to the Green Lantern Corps, but Oliver Queen makes the save as Green Arrow.
They dash to, what Green Arrow calls a “Cosmic Omniporter Multiversal Network System“, essentially a teleporter, that he… destroys… straning them wherever they are?!
The Pulse.
A fast-paced debut issue which does all the usual dramatis personae set-up, new costume for all, as well hits the action and intrigue right away. Love the choice of the Manhunters as the foil, but is a Grandmaster or someone else pulling their strings? The art crackles with energy and pairs well with the story. Can’t wait for the next issue. A solid creative effort all around. 9 out of 10.
