"TALE OF TWO CITIES" finale! In a special issue that wraps up plotlines that began at the start of this series, Green Arrow and Black Canary must stop Moira Queen and Merlyn from enacting the final stage of their master plan. And if G.A. manages to defeat them, he'll still have to face the outcome of a trial that could change Oliver Queen's life forever!
Ferreyras art has always is spectacular for the eyes, but it seemss he had saved his best for last, because his art in this issue is just phenomenal, especially some of the bigger panels highlighting Oliver with the Justice League. This issue does not disappoint in the least bit, its a satisfying conclusion to Percys story he started back with Green Arrow Rebirth #1 while also setting up many exciting plot points to be used in the future, Green Arrow is in a better place than hes been in since before the New 52.

I felt such satisfaction when the story was over, I was ready to applaud, buy some popcorn, and come back for another showing. Read Full Review
This issue is absolutely a must-read -- and might make some fans want to start rereading from #1 again. Read Full Review
His adventures are far from over and Oliver is far more than ready to face them head-on as the Green Arrow and he is not alone. Read Full Review
Green Arrow #38 is the end of an era and I am sorry to see this creative team's run end. Still, as Ollie notes in the ending coda of the issue, "As much as some things have changed, others never will." I hope that one of the things that doesn't change is the level of quality and effort put into this series by its future writers and artists. Read Full Review
Incoming writers Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly have huge shoes to fill in making Green Arrow's world feel just as important as the other A-List DC heroes. The important thing is that Green Arrow definitely feels like a premium title again. Now it's just a matter of keeping him there. Read Full Review
This is a great finale. There's an optimism to it that I really love. Team Arrow, almost literally, went through hell and came out of the other side more determined that ever to help people. Maybe that's cheesy but it's the version of DC that appeals to me. Read Full Review
The team on GREEN ARROW shows off just how incredible they are with their final issue together. It's truly the culmination of everything they've done with the character so far. Ben Percy brings symmetry into the story by addressing things from GREEN ARROW: REBIRTH #1. Juan Ferreyra's work is as immaculate as it always is. Deron Bennet's lettering lets us almost hear the issue. It's the perfect way to say goodbye, we just wish they didn't have to. Read Full Review
Green Arrow is without a doubt a character who is trying to make the world a better place. He is not perfect, and you may consider him damaged, but his heart is in the right place. This series has done a good job of selling him as a social justice warrior. He simply tries to fix the sins of his family's past.I'm looking forward to where this series will take us in the coming months, but I do want to pause and say thank you to Benjamin Percy and Juan Ferreyra for the amazing work they've done over the last couple of years to add their fingerprints to the rich history of this character. Thank you both. Read Full Review
Green Arrow #38 is the conclusion of Ben Percy's run on Green Arrow, and it ends pretty much as it spent the entire run " imperfect, but with a good core and very entertaining. Read Full Review
While I haven't been a fan of this run, I enjoyed this issue. The art is stunning and I couldn't help but feel some emotion during the last few pages. This just might be the best issue of the series, so kudos to Percy and Ferreyra for ending on a really high note. This truly feels like a culmination of the entire run and it's satisfying on that level. It's cheesy and fun, check it out. Read Full Review
Green Arrow #38 closes out both the trial of Oliver Queen and, seemingly, the Ninth Circle arc that has been carried since the beginning of this series. As such it's an interesting installment and one worthy of recommendation. It's not brilliant, but it's worth a read. Check it out. Read Full Review
Part of me wants to yell that this was a rushed ending that didn't pay off enough for all the setup we've gotten since Rebirth started, but I'll muzzle that part a bit. Yes, this finale felt rushed, but Ben Percy also used it as a way to show how much he loves Green Arrow and it rubbed off on me a bit as well. Because of that, and the awesome art by Juan Ferreyra, this is an odd finale that can be read by anyone with even a little liking for the character. Sure, those who've been here from the start will get more out of it, but maybe picking it up will make you want to go back a dive in from the beginning. I'll never say that's a bad thing!

Ben Percys Green Arrow series was, for me, the best out of all DC Rebirth titles. And this final issue just confirms that. I'm sad that he is leaving the book, but he finished his run in a great way.
Through bigger part of the issue Ollie is in the courthouse trying to reedem himself and his city along with him.
In almost every issue Percy was portraying Oliver as this social justice warrior who stands up for the little guy and is trying not to be "The Man" that is looking down on all this little guys, even though he had all the money and background to be "The Man". And what was great about that is that Percy didn't do that in a preachy way. He didn't beat the reader over the head with the ideas of equality and social just more
Solid issue all around
Percy did a great job with this series and I'm sorry to see him go. This issue read more like the end of the series rather than the end of a story arc. A good "jumping off" point for readers. I, however, will continue to buy this book and see what the new writer(s) do with Oliver Queen. I have no idea what the cover of this issue is about! "The Fall of Red Arrow?" Huh?
felt like it was limping across the finish line
