Although Green Arrow has never been the most fascinating or compelling superhero, his series has maintained a certain edge, engaging the reader through solid characterization. When the current series began, screenwriter and director Kevin Smith brought Oliver Queen back to life and carried the book through over-the-top action; he was followed by mystery novelist Brad Meltzer, who added depth to the father-son dynamic between Ollie and former protg Roy Harper and Ollie's real son Conner Hawke. Under Judd Winick, however, the book has really flourished, with a depth of feeling and emotion unrivalled in other superhero books. Hester and Parks have been along for the whole ride, lending visual consistency and defining these characters for the current generation. This arc is a fitting finale for the art team, as it will certainly be their most important work to date. Good job, all, and thank you. Read Full Review
