A review by geekwayne
Green Arrow, Vol. 3: Emerald Outlaw by Benjamin Percy

4.0

'Green Arrow, Volume 3: Emerald Outlaw' by Benjamin Percy collects Green Arrow 13-17. Oliver still has no money, but he's still got his makeshift family.

There is a mayoral race in Seattle and one of the candidates wants to ban the Green Arrow. There is a rogue vigilante group called the Vice Squad, and they just want to rid the city of its useless elements. There is also a mysterious archer setting Green Arrow up to turn the city against him. Green Arrow and Black Canary seem to have their hands full this time around.

I live near Seattle and I love how Oliver's Seattle seems so much like mine. There are a lot of familiar landmarks. There are also similar problems. I also like this version of the Green Arrow. He has lost his fortune, but that has seemed to free him up. I like this story with it's politics and set ups. The surprises weren't overly surprising, but the story and the art kept me turning pages.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
