Green Arrow, Vol. 5: Hard Travelin' Hero by Benjamin Percy
5.0
Percy continues to deliver with vol. 5 of his current and notably strong run of Green Arrow. Tying together some of the story threads of Ollie's ongoing struggle, and bringing in other members of the Justice League--Percy deepens the complexities of the plot and Arrow's personal character arc.
Personally, I've felt that Percy's writing balances on the edge of being too on-the-nose at moments, but he's never fully crossed that line for me--and the complexity of his writing and his characters is as strong as ever. This series continues to impress in both art and writing as Arrow throws himself headlong into a mystery that may well be beyond his ability to face.
