Green Arrow Vol. 1: Hunters Moon
Green Arrow Vol. 1: Hunters Moon | Mike Grell
1 post | 3 read | 1 to read
In these cult favorite stories from the 1980s, Green Arrow hunts down a child killer, races to find a lost biological weapon before Chinese spies can find it, and tackles a rash of violence against gays. These stories, written by Mike Grell, repositioned Green Arrow as an inner city crusader for justice who deals not only with super-villains but also with street level crime. Collects the 1988 GREEN ARROW #1-6.

Pickpick

Yep; Green Arrow continues to be my DC thing, despite that blip with the New 52 series. Mike Grell, Ed Hannigan, and Dick Giordano produce an action-packed yet thoughtful comic that sees Oliver face off against all too real villains.

Despite the Mature Content label, the older protagonist, and the subject matter--child torture and homophobic murder--the library has this in the YA section. Dear librarians: not all superhero comics are YA. #comics

xicanti Another note: this is a direct sequel to THE LONGBOW HUNTERS, so you might want to read that first. Most of what Dinah deals with here is rooted in the earlier volume, though there's enough context that you don't absolutely NEED it. 7y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk Looooooooooved The Longbow Hunters but regretfully haven‘t checked out any more of the Mike Grell run. Have you read any of Kevin Smith‘s run? 7y
xicanti @TobeyTheScavengerMonk Quiver was some of the first post-Silver Age DC I read, way back in the day. I reread it last year and still enjoyed it very much. 7y
