Of course, much more took place this episode as we saw more of villain Damien Darhks plans with Officer Lance, and how it all connects to John Diggles brother. But all that took a backseat, as seen the Green Arrow and company interact with Constantine was the main course of this episode. Very well done, and with more plot-lines that could end up taking Constantine to Central City for a Flash crossover down the road, this episode lived up to the massive hype. Read Full Review
None of the three stories here do much to flesh out the characters and conflicts of Arrow. Even at its most competent, this book is an easy pass for all but the most hardcore fans of the show. Read Full Review
Though the comic has room for improvement, the third chapter alone makes this issue worthwhile and provides substantial grounds for speculation that China White is destined to become an important character in the show. Crucial pieces of back story that help to flesh out characters, like the one doled out in this chapter, are what I hope to see more of in future Arrow comics. It's yet to be seen whether or not this will be. Read Full Review
I was very excited for this issue, but after reading the story all my expectations were let down. The art needs improvement, and they need to make the readers interested. People are not going to spend money to read what they already watch on television for free. I am going to give the next issue a try, but if it does not improve I think I am going to drop this series. Dont pick up this issue! Read Full Review
The third chapter is the issue's high-point, focusing on villain Lady Shiva and revealling her secret origin, illustrated by Jorge Jiminez. Jiminez's art is excellent! It's fluid, crackles with energy and just as Grell's art felt a bit flat, Jiminez's does indeed pop off the page. And the story actually embellishes the story of the show, deepening the mythology.

"Arrow" the comic should be capitalising on the fact that it stems from a television show and as such will have a more than usual amount of eyes focused towards it. However, as seems to be the blight of comics, this tie-in issue is boring and wooden and doesn't offer much of anything to entice a reader. I found it dull, and a little difficult to care about, due to the empty nature of the narrative. I can only imagine what a person unfamiliar with Green Arrow, or comics in general, made of it as the issue bumbles through miniscule set pieces for characters and ideas. It's hard to complain about anything with such a low price point, but this is a waste of a golden opportunity to help draw new readers into comics. Read Full Review
