Green Arrow: The Death and Life of Oliver Queen Review

Finished reading Green Arrow: The Death and Life of Oliver Queen, writer restarts the Green Arrow series as part of DC's Rebirth publishing line as Green Arrow reconnects with Black Canary for the first time since the New 52 while also having to deal with an enemy that has ties incredibly close to Oliver's life. The book opens up with Oliver jumping into action as Green Arrow and meeting back up with Black Carney for the first time as the two team up and work together on a case involving missing homeless people who are being sold of in underground auctions with Queen Industries being at the centre of it. However when Oliver starts to look into the matter he is quickly betrayed by someone close to him and stages his death publicly leaving Oliver with only his life as the Green Arrow left to try and make a difference with our the help of his financial wealth. Overall this was great book as its a great jumping on point for new readers while also bringing back the relationship of Green Arrow and Black Canary back into the comics while still being able to shake up Oliver's world. The interactions between Green Arrow and Black Canary are great as not only are the two characters are coming back together for the first time in years within the pages of the comics while also being able to build a great relationship for the two with how each character plays of one another. The art throughout the book is amazing as both Otto Schmidt and Juan Ferreyra to an amazing job in bringing the world of Green Arrow's corner of the DC universe to life with great action scenes and a wonderful colour palette. 8.5/10.
