Green Arrow is featured in a solo adventure. Fearful of Superman's vengeance, the archer is put in charge of protecting the Joker's crazed accomplice, Harley Quinn. Finding somewhere to hide Harley isn't the challenge--keeping his sanity during prolonged contact with her is. But who will be the first one to drive the other crazy?

    INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US #5 takes a break from the bleak Superman/Batman/Joker conflict and instead provides us with a consistently funny and fairly heartwarming chapter. Filled with laughs and an engaging "team-up" between Haley Quinn and Green Arrow, this digital comic has won me over yet again. I really can't recommend this title enough. Read Full Review

    As long as you are going into this issue and series with the mindset that this is a comic book series based on a fight-style video game from the creators of Mortal Kombat, it's a lot of fun. In the end, I think Injustice: Gods Among Us #5 is starting to pull the picture together and things are becoming clearer. I expect the sides to solidify over the next couple of issues and then I'm excited to see where Tom Taylor and his creative team take things. Read Full Review

    One of the most important Injustice issues for Batman fans to pick up. The artwork in the middle when we're in the batcave looked a little off-putting, but overall it was a nice looking and very entertaining book. The usual problems remain with character design and characterization of folks who aren't connected to Batman directly, but if you're still reading at issue #5 chances are you've come to accept all that already and you're in for a good time.

    The other problem, as mentioned previously, is that the order for the individual chapters should have been reorganized for the sake of this issue. The Arkham storyline is three chapters long, meaning print readers are getting two chapters now and stuck waiting another month for the finale. With the Flash chapter being largely standalone, it wouldn't have harmed anything to bump it until issue #6 and offer a more complete and cohesive reading experience here. Read Full Review
