Green Arrow #4
Didn't enjoy this. Half of it was stuff we'd seen in Brightest Day, and the other have was just meh. I want to love this book, and god knows it's better than what Kreisberg was writing, but it's nowhere near as good as when Winick was on it. I know I have said it before, but I just LOVED Winick's run on GA and GA/BC. It's one of my favorite runs of any book ever, and I want that kind of enjoyment out of GA again. He's one of my favorite characters.
This book still has the potential to be cool, but it's floundering a little right now. I'm not sure what it's going to turn into. It seems to be dangling between a few types of stories, and I want it to just pick one.
I wish that damn forest would go away, and GA would go back to being a street level vigilante. Those elements are still in the book, but so is the mystical stuff, and I don't like that stuff much with a non powered hero, at least not when they are on a solo adventure. Sure, there are exceptions to that rule for me. Winick used supernatural elements in parts of his run, but he made them fun and entertaining.
