    I think when people hear the term "anarchist," it carries certain negative connotations, but as opposed to having Ollie embrace black bloc tactics, I think it would be perfectly in keeping with his...

    Ollie being concerned with issues of social justice is not something I'm opposed to. Quite the contrary, it's a huge part of why the character is my favourite superhero. It's why I specifically...

    I picked up issue 18 because the book keeps getting good reviews, and I was curious to see Oliver and Roy interact.

    Now I'm regretting that decision. Percy obviously hasn't improved since his...

    So you're willing to suspend your disbelief when it comes to a dude carting around a nuclear weapon in his quiver, but the idea of a woman superhero using a bow is a bridge too far?

    Despite my better judgement, I decided that all the good reviews might mean Percy had grown as a writer since I dropped GREEN ARROW with his second issue.

    I am baffled by the praise this is...

    I was really excited to learn who'd be taking over writing GREEN ARROW, only to learn that the book shall remain in Ben Percy's terrible, clumsy grasp. Aow all the colour has drained from the world,...

    I love how upset the majority of the posters commenting on this are. Comic book fans are so precious.

    BOMBSHELLS has been great so far, and I've heard really good things about SENSATION COMICS.

    INJUSTICE had a lot of flaws -- largely stemming from the storyline in the game -- as a Green Arrow fan,...

    Co-signed. This is a worthiness determined by Doom, not Odin.

    Thanks, it's much appreciated!

    So Oliver's girlfriend approaches the homeless street preacher woman Percy's previous issues -- the Wart Lady, if I remember correctly -- so she can read his...

    So, is the implication behind Loki's words that there is some sort preternatural connection between Thor -- or at least versions of Thor who would have been the Son of Odin pre-Battleworld -- and...

    Could somebody give some detailed spoilers? I'm wary of continuing to purchase the book until a new writer comes along, but if it sounds interesting enough, I might cave.

    I'd love it if that was actually going to be the case; one of the things I like most about Valiant is that most of their time travel stuff, up 'til this point has been handled by Fred Van Lente, who...

    Considering how much I didn't like the first two issues of DEAD DROP, it finished relatively well. A lot of the problems I had were explained, and everything wrapped up. It's still a bit out of...

    Sure, I absolutely agree with that perspective.


    I dunno. I like it when Ollie is preachy, because that's the kind of flawed that he is. Granted, I am still thinking of him as the dude who kicked...

    Tarantula's costume is pretty great, but what is going on with their legs on that cover? that would be an odd pose normally, but the way they're both positioned makes it look like a villain busted in...

    I haven't read the issue, but assuming it's more or less a continuation of the problems I had with the first two installments of Percy's run, I'm going to have to disagree.

    The idea that a white...

    Though I'd agree that the stone touch technique came out of left field, otherwise I thought this issue was a really strong ending for the book. As much as I'd like to see some sort of continuation...

    I do have to wonder if this is editorial mandate, or Alonso simply answering a question off the cuff. Is it possible he's not aware of the scene with Northstar, or that it slipped his mind?

    Right?

    I haven't read the issue since it came out, but I don't remember the reveal being presented as humorous in any way. This "argument" comes off as moving the goal posts so the bigots don't...

    Why would I support a book I know I'm not going to enjoy? If other people like Frank Tieri and are excited to see what he does with the character, that's awesome; I hope they get their money's worth...

    Certainly not for 'Arrow', but if Oliver was older, and had his van dyke, yeah, a feathered cap would have been fine.
