Love that scene. HATE Dinah during that period of time, but the book was still really good.

Anyone who doesn't love this relationship has no heart. And no, I don't care if that includes any of you reading this.
It's based on his Devin Grayson costume, which DID have orange on it.

Green Arrow in Gotham this week was just fan-damn-tastic. Ferreyra just goes nuts with cutaways, easter eggs, sewer pipe panel travels. God he's an amazing artist. He might have one of THE best Batmans on the stands right now. But Ollie is rocking it hardcore.
I was surprised slightly that Ollie's Ninth Circle adventures in Gotham tied into the Owls rather than one of the more ... well, "Satan/Devil/Pentagram" themed secret societies Batman deals with on a regular basis. But I guess if you've got to bring in a secret society - the Owls are already sort of "outed" as far as secret societies go. They're kind of the "worst kept secret" in Gotham now, and more than that - the "WE'RE SO MEGA RICH WE CAN BE EVIL" theme works best with them contrasting against ... well, Oliver and Bruce's rich-person status.
Gorgeous art. Gorgeous layouts. Simple, effective plot. Nice payoff at the end. Jesus that Batman art though. That blood reflection. That backflip past Bullock. That gargoyle perch.
But Ollie removing his disguise was right up there.
