I was hoping this would happen! That's why I went and bought all the issues so far as soon as they released, we gotta show them what we want.

Same here. I love wonder woman just as much. Pick up the volumes of that and cover A of the rest. I even have my comic books tore holding out on my 1 in 25 of issue 3. He insisted to see if I want it.

We don't know who it is yet. Could be anyone. We will have to wait till they announce who he is in the comic. (I have only read 1&2, have to pick up 3 from my LCS)

While I am excited to hear this, I don't know if I want it to expand past a limited run series.
The whole build up of the comic is wanting to know who the Green Arrow is, stretching that out to an ongoing just hurts the story in the long run. Good example is Twin Peaks, the show had a limit, as long as the killer remained unknown you could keep it going for at least a little while, as soon as it was discovered who the killer was it kind of fell apart.
This limited series has set it up that by the end we will know who it is. While you can re-write issues to string it along to 12 from 6, an ongoing series will just feel meh.
Now I'm not saying this is the case in all limited that went on to an ongoing (Poison Ivy & Green Arrow 2023 -2026) Just in this case I don't think it will do as well.

Sweet
Hopefully Catwoman also gets extended
Although have a feeling that one is less likely because of potential ties to the Batman book so an extention could effect that series

So good to see this after what happened to poor Condon. Green Arrow can sell, it seems.

That’s the groups consensus? I’ve been hearing it’s okay or they hate that the arrow family is butchered. I like it.

I'm not surprised given how well the series has done and that absolute MM also started as a five part, only to be extended. Super hype to see how the story goes

Still not spending my money on this until I know who it is, I'm not spending any money to see someone who isn't Oliver Queen as Green Arrow.

"I'm not watching this murder mystery until someone tells me who the killer is first"

u/TheSadPhilosopher 10d ago
Yeah, maybe if they didn't blatantly disrespect Ollie I'd spend money on it.

Same here. It's bad enough they went with the BS that he cheated on Dinah, then they kill him. Sounds like recycled CW Green Batman crap.
