thanekosThe run's not like the preceding, which traded on the reader's investment in Oliver Queen as a character with a publication history in a shared universe - it's telling a crime story with only nodding acknowledgements to the greater setting, one where Ollie's role isn't obviously stage-setting for a future story.
The issue marks the shift in scope with Green Arrow's first appearance in it being the foiling of a convenience store robbery.
Afterwards, the crime's introduced.
( It's through news-as-exposition. )

Batman V Santa Claus: Dawn of Christmas
Dec. 19th, 2023 10:49 amshakaloolooIt's a four-issue miniseries, running every week through December with the third issue out today. Lamentably, I'm away from my FLCS over this holiday season, so here are only scans from the first two issues.

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #16
Jul. 2nd, 2023 08:22 pmshakaloolooEh, the title may not be entirely accurate, as at this point almost the entire Justice League is getting in on saving the world from an AI uprising. Self-deprecating Batman is great, though.

icon_ukThough his name is not always seen as being in the upper echelons of comic book art, it's hard to imagine anyone who has had a longer, more lasting impact on the DCU than the maestro; Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez
