    If you haven't been reading Green Arrow, you've been missing out on one hell of a ride. If you have been reading Green Arrow, this issue is more of same mix of fine art and high action you've come to expect. This is a damn good comic! Read Full Review

    Impulse Gamer - Andrew Bistak Aug 19, 2017

    Writer Benjamin Percy and artist Juan Ferreyra kick another goal with this current issue of Green Arrow and was probably my favourite comic of the week. It's definitely an interesting look into Green Arrow and I loved that he had the chance to play in the city of Gotham, while the Batman watches on! Great stuff guys! Read Full Review

    411Mania - Jonathan Durden Aug 24, 2017

    This issue has cemented Green Arrow on my pull list. Not that there was much doubt to begin with. The series knows what it wants to be and accomplishes its goals with flying colors. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes Green Arrow or superheroes without powers and/or fun mystery stories. Read Full Review

    DC Comics News - Sean Blumenshine Aug 17, 2017

    This is a solid issue. Percy takes advantage of comparing and contrasting the two heroes in a really interesting way. This issue is focused more on character than plot and it's well done. Ferreyra's art is amazing as always. I recommend reading this issue. Read Full Review

    Comicsverse - Aaron Young Aug 16, 2017

    GREEN ARROW #29 shows Green Arrow traveling to Gotham City to confront the Underground Men and the Court of Owls. There he teams up with Batman, who acts more like a rival than an ally to the Emerald Archer. The portrayal of these two billionaire vigilantes combined with Ferreyra's awesome art is what makes GREEN ARROW #29 another terrific issue by Benjamin Percy. Read Full Review

    This is a very satisfying read that even sets up a potential game-changer for Oliver's legal status. I can't wait to see what's next for this title. Read Full Review

    On Comics Ground - Matt Minton Aug 19, 2017

    Interesting issue with the interaction between two of the classic DC characters. The issue moved the story along and made for a good read overall. It may not be a classic but was worth the time. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Aug 16, 2017

    It's a shame to say it, but this Hard Traveling Hero arc is falling into a go from point A to point B type of story with little substance to make it work.  Ben Percy seems more concerned with his guest stars than the real story, but damn does this issue look fantastic.  Juan Ferreyra continues to amaze, I just wish the rest of the book would follow suit.

    Razorfine - Alan Rapp Aug 22, 2017

    Most notable for Green Arrow and Batman coming to blows, and the appearance of the Court of Owls, the issue doesn't offer the vigilante much more information before the Dark Knight Detective points the hero to a different target. For fans. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Joshua McDonald Aug 18, 2017

    Gotham shines in Green Arrow #29 thanks to Ferreyra's art, but Percy misses the mark with Batman as a character. Unless you want a heavy-handed political commentary wrapped up in an arc that feels so forced it's unnatural, I recommend skipping this issue. Read Full Review
