Date: 2011-10-09 04:01 am (UTC)Second page: a trapdoor opens under the ashes, and Ollie, having untied himself, emerges from a long drug-induced coma, his eyes blinking from the bright sunlight.
He picks up his quiver. "What the heck happened?..."
Fun thought: if you think of the entire new DC as how Barry Allen remembered the DCU, as he's supposedly who "rewrote" everything in FLASHPOINT, think what this implies about what he thought of Ollie.

From:Not trying to tell anyone how to feel
Date: 2011-10-08 03:19 am (UTC)I feel like I should be more offended, but sometimes its nice to have a hero who wont kill, but at the same time does not give a fuck about generally anything in between(including the bad guys feelings). Honestly I do not know how most heroes stay so polite with the person trying to kill them. Besides its Green fucking Arrow who doesn't expect this from him now, oddly enough he has not had sex in the new dc yet.

Date: 2011-10-08 01:40 am (UTC)Seriously, has this guy ever smiled? Ever? In his life? It's like they took the idea of Bruce Wayne and took away all levity and sense of humor whatsoever.
I don't like this guy. One facial expression, no passion in anything he's doing other than INTENSE GLARE. Bleh, do not want.

Date: 2011-10-08 07:54 am (UTC)Anyone else find it hilarious that we have this character going on about violent video games while there is a comic panel right next to her of some guy punching his hand into someone's chest? Yep, them games are a bad influence, so read comics instead. Nobody ever gets killed or maimed in comics, right? :p
As for Ollie in this, I've never really been a Green Arrow fan, but from stuff I have read/seen with him, this just seems off. The first pages with him skipping work to play basketball come off as very Tony Stark to me. Also, they need to just give him back the goatee. Don't tease it with the stubble, just put it back.

Date: 2011-10-08 10:58 pm (UTC)Also, does he ever say anything that isn't a cliche? I love the "play fair" comment. Actually, never showing up to work--even playing basketball instead--and getting removed as a result: man who would be Queen, that, uh, IS fair. I mean, what does it say about this that I actually sympathize more with the "corporate hardass authority figure" cutout character than him?
Also: isn't this really just about a celeb beating up other celebs? Note he doesn't even really care about the dead kid. No, he reacts like this is a competition. Is there anything heroic about the man who would be Queen's attitude, or is it more akin to how he is in basketball here?
Not only that: so far, it seems to be him who provokes these brawls, without caring one little bit about the bystanders. In fact: he seems to have contempt for the people if anything. It's all about HIM.
Interesting to compare the "populist" Superman in ACTION to this. Yes, DC, we really are in the mood for a comic about a spoiled CEO. Thanks!
Because this reads like one of those comics DC once did privately on commission for rich people. Like a CEO asked them to draw a comic with him as Green Arrow.

Date: 2011-10-09 03:53 am (UTC)Huh? No, Ollie, the word you want is "prey."
God the last page of this comic makes me so hope he's stomped, and I shouldn't feel that way two issues into a comic.
