    Bring On The New Creative Team!!

    The Story: 

    Green Arrow fights Rush while millions of viewers watch online.  

    My Thoughts:

    So far I have been completely disappointed with this series for so many reasons. I had no hopes this issue would get any better and it sure didn't. DC really needs to get that new creative team on this series immediately. J.T. Krul is not doing Green Arrow's character justice.

    The whole issue centers around Green Arrow's fight with a guy named Rush. It's made to seem like it's some sort of epic showdown when in fact, the whole fight was incredibly boring. The dialogue was just plain awful. The things they were saying in the middle of the fight were ridiculous. This may impress twelve year olds but they're going to have to do a lot better than this if they want this series to have any sort of success. The issue ends as Oliver Queen gives a speech and then we see a page introducing the next two villains. This was an overall lackluster issue once again. 

    It's sort of funny how so many creators were credited on this issue and this was the best they could come up with. What a shame. I hope things improve drastically when that new creative team arrives. I don't know if I can take much more of this.  

    Rating: 2/5

      The Good: Hmmm. There's actually some interesting experimentation with panel layouts. It works pretty well when implemented, I must give credit for that. Rush builds up the tension in the beginning of the issue well when he calls out to his fans across the internet. Is Green Arrow beating the shit out of superpowered Jersey Shore boring yet? Nope! And they call them out on it brilliantly. The villains are all so thick headed about the 'success' of 3 million viewers. No matter how many people rea...

      This current Green Arrow series has been okay for me while others have said that it is unreadable. I still like it but having a new creative team would be great.  THE GOOD: I like the art. Dan Jurgens is a good artist but George Perez's inking kinda takes over the art and makes it look like it's his own work. The story is simple but I still think that it's good. We have people who like killing people on cameras getting ready to kill Green Arrow, however he is going to fight back. I also like see...
