Book Review: Green Arrow vol #2


Book: Green Arrow volume #2: Sounds of Violence (issues #11-15) by Kevin Smith with illustrations by Phil Hester and color by James Sinclair

Source: Library

Rating: 3 stars

Review:

I thought this was good but what I liked the most were all the interactions between the characters. From Oliver's love for Dinah (Black Canary) to being a father to his son Connor Hawke (the other Green Arrow) and trying to be a good mentor for Mia Dearden. And not to mention Hawkman, Ollie and Carter never really seem to get along.

In this group of stories, while Oliver was trying to get used to being back from the dead (you know characters never stay dead) he had to cope with trying to dissuade Mia from wanting to go into the superhero business, reuniting with Dinah and Connor and trying to stop a crazed killer who was going after superheroes.

For these stories, I thought the writing was okay the interactions saved it and the artwork was also just okay. This was good just not as good as other Green Arrow stories I've read prior to this (excluding the New 52).
