Freaked Out
Jeff Lemire run of Green Arrow had a great word of mouth around it back in the day. I have never heard anything bad about it, it is really praised highly, but it didn't blow my mind or anything. There was even a part i couldn't buy into.
That part was the new tech guy who helped Green Arrow on missions just like Batman's Oracle. His name was Henry Fyff and he was a stalker with a heart of gold...HA HA I mean Oliver Queen fired him from his company because he was a stalker and when he needed a new tech guy on his missions as Green Arrow, he directly went to Fyff without a second thought and told him his secret identity and asked for his help. Fyff was like yeah, i will help you dude because anything for a supe hero, i totaly don't have any gruge against you for firing me and ending my career and i will keep your secret to the grave because i am the purest stalker with a heart of gold on the face of the earth... HA HA Yeah, it was not believeable at all.
Arrow tv show's popularty definetly influanced Jeff Lemire's Green Arrow run. There were some very obvious similarities. I liked Green Arrow's new sidekick Emiko. The Twist with the Island, the Outsiders organisation (when i heard the outsiders name at first, i thought they were Batman's Outsiders team, but the Outsiders in Lemire's Green Arrow run had nothing to do with them, they were totaly something different and new. I bet anyone who knew some DC lore experienced the same confusion at first when they heard the Outsiders name) and all the weapons clans were nice additions to the Green Arrow lore.
I liked Count Vertigo's origin and charater design. I also really liked how Jeff Lemire revitaliesed an absecure DC Character like Richard Dragon. I have heard about him before, but i have never read any DC Comics he was in it before. Andrea Sorrentino's art was good. His style was realistic and cinematic, his panelling style reminded me J.H. Williams III abit.
I give the run a 7/10 point overall.
I like Green Arrow because i like Robin Hood but there is something that bothers me with Green Arrow, something that doesn't work about him, i will make a general critisism of the character. Green Arrow is a murderer vigilante and he is left wing at the same time... I mean these are two totally opposite mentalities of each other. Two opposite mind sets. You can't be a murderer vigilante and left wing at the same time. It doesn't make anysense. I mean super heroes are not real anyway, because of that they don't have to make anysense, but somethings bother some people more than they bother other people... If that makes any sense HA HA
