    Default "The World's Greatest Archer": Green Arrow Appreciation 2019!

    What a better way to start the year but by celebrating some of the best moments from the Emerald Archer?

    (Hint: Lemire/Sorrentino's run is still best).

    Does anyone think that Green Arrow not being a strong fighter adds on to him being an underdog? I noticed that he gets his arse handed to him at times.
    Imagine being proud to have negative traits. I can’t relate.

    DC: Justice League, The Flash, Justice League Dark, Superman, Action Comics, Green Arrow, Justice League Odyssey, The Terrifics, Teen Titans, Titans, Brimstone, Female Furies, Damage, Heroes In Crisis

    Marvel: The Punisher, Cosmic Ghost Rider, Venom, X-23, Cloak and Dagger, Jessica Jones, Sentry

    Indies: Unnatural, Jeepers Creepers, Project Superpowers, Black Hammer, Ninja-K

    Those kind of things can change from writer to writer. For example Batman is invincible at hand to hand combat sometimes, and sometimes a thug sneaks behind him and takes him out... lol those kind of thing are always inconsistent.

    I don't think Ollie should be a terrible fighter, but he might come off more average compared to the top tier combatants of the DCU, though with his bow and arrow he's always liable to fight differently from them.

    Dinah's probably trained him a little.

    I’ve been reading it the last couple of weeks, about half way through.

    It’s very good...but must admit the thought had occurred a time or three that Frank Miller ought to get a share of the writing credits: it’s got a lot of similarities to the Frank Miller Daredevil run.

    yeah, there would a lot more whose better than oliver. but hopefully his trick arrows (and or technology) would give him the edge when it came to justice league level threats.

    (man, i just remembered justice league: the nail. poor oliver).

    Neat design for Ollie. Reminds me of his first Injustice design.

    Yeah, I hated when Winnick made him a ninja. It kind of ruined his combat dynamic with Black Canary and made him just overall more generic.
