Green Arrow #29

Green Arrow #29 successfully delivers a classic mystery while packing a modern emotional punch. It moves the "Crimson Sands story to a critical juncture, providing a fantastic setup for what promises to be an intense finale. Bonus points to Condon for pulling out a deep-cut piece of Green Arrow lore by reintroducing Oliver's time with the CIA, a concept Mike Grell originally brought in to explain the darker, espionage side of the character.

This is a pretty quick read, as much of it involves Ollie infiltrating a secret base, but the tension is excellent and the art really captures the dark nature of this story. Read Full Review

Green Arrow #29 is another great issue in the series that helps build the anticipation towards the final showdown between Green Arrow and the Crimson Archer. Although I initially thought it would be more satisfying to see Roy deliver justice against the Crimson Archer, I think the divergence between these two plots worked out very well. While Roy is rediscovering the value of being a superhero with his daughter, Ollie is fighting a ghost of the past who has attempted to hurt those he loves. This direction works very well to remain true to the core values of each character. As a result, this is another strong issue that builds the excitement towards the series finale. Read Full Review
