Green Arrow (Jeff Lemire) (Comic Book) | comment |
Like many comics published during DC's New 52 initiative, much of Green Arrow's history and background as a superhero were wiped clean and relaunched as Green Arrow (2011). Faced with dwindling sales, Jeff Lemire was given creative control of the struggling title, beginning with issue #17, in hopes of giving it a much-needed direction. The artwork was done by Andrea Sorrentino.Lemire's duration on the title proved to be incredibly rejuvenating to the series. Further wiping the slate clean and ignoring much of what had come before, Lemire's run focuses heavily on a Myth Arc and extensive lore that was entirely new to the character, while re-introducing key members of Oliver's Rogues Gallery in new and interesting ways.Running from 2013 to 2014, from issues #17 to #34, the series served as a high mark for the character's history during the highly divisive New 52. Further aided by running concurrently with Arrow, this highly-acclaimed take on the character helped to elevate Green Arrow out of relative obscurity. | |

Soft Reboot: Coming off of an already rebooted franchise. Whereas the previous 16 issues had introduced a number of cast members and established a status quo of Oliver Queen being a rich crime-fighter who used corporate assets and employees to finance his life as Green Arrow, pretty much everything was thrown out the window as soon as the new creative team took over. | |

Abusive Parents | |

Abusive Parents: Komodo takes Emiko away from Shado and raises the girl as his own daughter, but also feeds her lies and molds her into a cold-blooded assassin. When Emiko finds out the truth and begs him to spare her mother's life, he threatens to shoot her unless she gets out of his way. Robert put Oliver through a Training from Hell in order to toughen him up and force him to gain the skills necessary to help him along his quest for the Arrow Totem. This included stranding him on a deserted island, letting him believe that he was the only person alive there for years and watching him struggle to survive, culminating in Cold-Blooded Torture when he found out that he wasn't. Ultimately it was for good reasons, and it worked, but Oliver disowns him after finding the truth. | |

Color-Coded Characters | |
Green Arrow (Jeff Lemire) (Comic Book) / int_bb660963 | comment |
Color-Coded Characters: Given that the title character has the word "green" right in his name this is to be expected. However, it's done subtly throughout the series in other ways. Oliver's color is obviously green. Whenever there is a panel shot of an action that the reader should focus on, things that Oliver is looking at or arrows that he is firing are always colored accordingly. Komodo's is purple. His outfit is a very dark purple, almost black, and the lights on his mask light up similarly after Oliver blinds him in one eye. Robert Queen is shown with a similar color scheme, to help illustrate their close bond. Shado's is red. She has a red bow, red accents on her outfit, and fires red arrows. Emiko shares this color scheme, serving as a subtle hint of her true parentage. | |

Shoo Out the New Guy: Prior to this, previous issues had introduced a slew of characters at Q-Corp that worked as Oliver's Mission Control and Voice with an Internet Connection. In the first issue, Lemire has most of them killed off in a hostile attack on the Queen Industries building. | |

Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy | |
Green Arrow (Jeff Lemire) (Comic Book) / int_bfaff026 | comment |
Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: Komodo is a master of kyudo, a Japanese mixture of archery and martial arts. He trash talks Green Arrow during their early fights, even though he repeatedly fails to take out the hero. Richard Dragon, after being trained by the League of Assassins, became a strong contender for being the World's Best Warrior and can deliver some brutal beatdowns. He fights both Green Arrow and Diggle while delivering a self-aggrandizing speech, though the heroes manage to outsmart him and barely win the battle. | |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane | |
Green Arrow (Jeff Lemire) (Comic Book) / int_cb70651c | comment |
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: The Arrow Totem, like all of the items that help to form the basis of the Weapon Clans, is believed by some to hold mystical powers (in this case, the gift of foresight). Others simply see it as a really old arrow with a fairy tale attached to it, and just want it so that they can use it to claim ownership of the Arrow Clan. Oliver firmly believes that it's the latter. Until he wields it and is granted visions of all that is his life. | |

Training from Hell | |
Green Arrow (Jeff Lemire) (Comic Book) / int_d66cd0e6 | comment |
Robert put Oliver through a Training from Hell in order to toughen him up and force him to gain the skills necessary to help him along his quest for the Arrow Totem. This included stranding him on a deserted island, letting him believe that he was the only person alive there for years and watching him struggle to survive, culminating in Cold-Blooded Torture when he found out that he wasn't. Ultimately it was for good reasons, and it worked, but Oliver disowns him after finding the truth. | |

Expy | |
Green Arrow (Jeff Lemire) (Comic Book) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Emiko Queen is one for Damian Wayne from Batman. Both were trained as assassins for the purpose of killing a family member who was a superhero and both wound up becoming snarky teen sidekicks to said hero, who complained about not being allowed to kill. Komodo is clearly inspired on Malcolm Merlyn, as he is a bow-wielding assassin clad in black who serves as Green Arrow's archnemesis. Ironically, Merlyn later took on characteristics from this character, and the original Merlyn was reintroduced back into Oliver's Rogues Gallery. | |

Goggles Do Something Unusual: Komodo's eyewear isn't just for show. They enhance his depth perception and allow him to focus on what he's going to be aiming his arrows at. After he becomes blind in one eye, his depth perception is ruined and he has to rely on them in order to keep up with the other archers. | |
