Nov 16, 2016Green Arrow #11 is a thrill ride of an issue that is as entertaining as any good Hollywood summer blockbuster. Percy and Ferreyra are a great team and their collaboration here is rock solid. This is one of the best comics DC is putting out right now, and it is a great time to be a Green Arrow fan.

CourtOfNerds - Grant Stoye
Nov 18, 2016The climax was what you hoped for, again featuring incredible teamwork by Green Arrow, Black Canary, and Diggle, and a wonderful final moment with the two lovebirds. Although small, this arc was action-packed and tense, and reintroduced an integral character back into the Green Arrow mythos. It's a comforting feeling to know that this book will come out and consistently nail the tone that Percy & crew worked so hard on setting, and issue 11 embodies that perfectly: heavy action, sharp dialogue, breath-taking artwork, and a story you can lose yourself in.

Nov 17, 2016Green Arrow #11 does leave the story wide open for further adventures, especially since Broderick is still running Queen Industries. So whilst this part of the story is over, we've no doubt that Ollie has some cleaning up to do when it comes to Seattle. It's great to finally see the team back in the city. They spent far too long living Oliver's island adventure again. The series has shown it can be highly entertaining, so hopefully this issue is the start of getting it back on the right track again. Will we see him reunite with Emi? Afterall, a lot of this is her fault essentially. That's going to be one awkward family reunion.Green Arrow #11 is a fun filled adventure that promises bigger things on the horizon. Don't miss out. Read Full Review

Nov 16, 2016Of the important issues of this new Rebirth run, Empire Express wasn't pivotal, but it was an enjoyable mini-arc with great characterization and beautiful art. Read Full Review

Nov 16, 2016Overall, this is a good issue. Despite some issues with Black Canary, the art is amazing otherwise. There's a lot of great dialogue and action that make this a fun issue. I recommend reading it. Read Full Review

Newsarama - Justin Partridge
Nov 16, 2016While a bit less substantial narrative-wise than I would have liked, the finale of “Murder on the Empire Express” stands a breezy and explosive outing for the Emerald Archer and his pretty bird. Benjamin Percy and Juan Ferreyra have hit a nice groove by this point in their working relationship and it comes through in the work. Though not exactly a game-changer when it comes to the overall story, Green Arrow #11 still provides plenty of the heart and action that fans have come to expect from their tenure on “Rebirth.” Read Full Review

Comics: The Gathering - Batmanaruto
Nov 16, 2016This issue was more of a means to an end, just to get the team to return back to Seattle in an interesting way and other than my complaint, the issue is really just alright. I have quite enjoyed all of Percy’s two parters, however I want to see a longer arc like the first one, as I really enjoyed that. Read Full Review

Weird Science - Jim Werner
Nov 16, 2016Ben Percy continues his story that started with a ridiculous premise and continued here by giving us no real information, but expecting us to care nonetheless. I didn't care at all, but I did like Juan Ferreyra's art, but was it enough for me to give it high marks? Check below for the answer. Spoiler alert...It wasn't. Read Full Review

I enjoyed this issue more than the previous one, with the emphasis on political undertones being minimized. I think the lead in to the next arc about Ollie confronting his company will be a great story, with this being a good finish.

[ART: 9.4 | STORY: 8.5 | WRITING: 8.1 | TOTAL: 8.7 (~8.5)] This was a really great two-part story for me. Ferreyra is probably my favourite artist on the book and he didn't disappoint this issue. I love the premise and I think it was really well executed. Definitely looking forward to the next arc!

A strong end to the train-arc but not quite as strong as the great last issue.

I really liked this. There was so many great panels and lines in this issue. It's such a fun read.

7.0
Stunning art wasn't enough to make up for a mediocre-at-best story. Percy's game has gotten pretty weak since the first story arc ended, and this story while a bit of fun was really pretty shallow and predictable. There wasn't really much character development here and whilst there was some preachy dialogue it did little to add to any overarching sense of intrigue which could mark the book out as unique. Some incredible panels do well to distract, but ultimately Green Arrow is going to need a much richer story to carry out the Rebirth promises of this Queen/ Canary partnership. So far I've been underwhelmed.

Standard adventure - but underwhelming wrap up development, sonic scream logic, rushed art shortcuts.

Comic Book Review (5.5/10) "Mediocre" Green Arrow #11 "Murder Incorporated" Writer: Benjamin Percy Art, Color, and Cover: Juan Ferreyra Plot: "Eddie" the assassin has just assassinated the diplomat Amin Mustafa, but the security detail believe that Green Arrow aka Oliver "Ollie" Queen was involved. Can Ollie, Dinah, and Diggle catch Eddie before he gets away? This is just one long Scooby Doo chase sequence complete with the zany and clichéd circumstances. Oh no - the assassin is getting away, but the authorities are trying to arrest Ollie and his friends instead, so Ollie and his friends have to fight the authorities to even get to Eddie. Oh no - there is a bomb that Eddie planted and will destroy the train, but the back car more
