Green Arrow, Vol. 3: Emerald Outlaw by Benjamin Percy
3.0
My graphic novels have been slow reads lately. Volume 3 of Green Arrow contains another set up for the next story arc, which makes sense considering the 9th Circle arc was pretty exciting so of course time is needed to set up the next exciting chapter of Oliver and the Gang.
There was a slight cliffhanger that raised some questions, introductions of familiar characters, and sad moments, but these moments weren't as devastating as it could be since I didn't feel much emotional pull to them. Regardless, I am still really enjoying this series. I love the tongue in cheek political humor, as well as the allusions to our current political climate in this series.
My favorite moment? The debate between two nerds on who would win a battle: Batman or Green Arrow. Then this was followed by an analysis of the two, comparing "SJW Green Arrow" and "conservative ideologue Batman." I loved that because of how realistic the conversation was.
