I know this subreddit doesn't get a lot of traffic, but when you scroll down "Hot" you get four or five posts asking what comics to read, and people keep asking.

It's wonderful that more new people want to give GA a try, but please read the pinned post, use the search bar, take two seconds to scroll, or just google best Green Arrow comics.

Maybe I'm just overreacting, but there are only so many times we can recommend the same four or five runs before it seems like it's all we're doing.

I just got done with Lemires Outsiders War and Broken. Im apprehensive to move on because Lemire's run was the best part of this series. No hate to the writers before. But specifically Nocenti was unreadable. I jumped ahead because of that and I heard about the quality upgrade with Lemire. But this just got me thinking, what is everyone else's opinion on the N52 GA series? Im so upset that there is 0 GA family, does anyone know why they didnt include any of the fam? Unless the appear later.

I've never read any of GA before, and I would like to start.

I wanted to start with New 52 GA, but my friends told me to completely skip this part.

So, I was wondering is GA from DC rebirth are OK? I really would like to start with that character, but I don't want to read very old comics(minimum 2005). Any help?

Loved the first two volumes of the Rebirth Green Arrow and am looking into the rest and year one but what other storylines would you guys recommend?

(Above are the Green Arrows from Justice League Action, Young Justice, DC Showcase, The Batman: 2004, Batman Brave and the Bold, Superfriends, DC Nation, and Justice League Unlimited)

Was totally gonna put the DC superhero girls version of him up there but I couldn't squeeze him in.

Personally, I'm in between the dcau version and the one from The Batman: 2004. Although most of them aren't really bad, per se. Except DC Nation, that one's just awful.

I'm planning on reading the main event issues, and the GA BC issue, but is there anything else I need to touch on for important Arrow Family content?

Hey!

I've taken a liking to king Queen and I'd like to know what's a list of good comics to read about him! I'm pretty new to comics so please start the list with something simple a newby could understand

Thanks in advance!

I’ve recently took an interest in green arrow but I’m not too knowledgeable about his personality or what makes him different from other heroes (besides the fact he’s human). I’ve heard the early 40s he’s different from modern comics, and even the tv show depicts him differently. I just want to know who he is, what core morals/values he has, and what makes him standout from other heroes

There's this belief that kid sidekicks all need to "grow up" and lose their alias once they become a more mature superhero.

I disagree. I think Mia should keep her title.

For one, she's barely been Speedy. Mia was 17 when she became Speedy and 18 last time her age was given. In real time, she became Speedy in 2005, was kicked out of DC canon circa 2011, and only just was reintroduced. She's barely been a superhero.

Most importantly, the moniker of "Speedy" is important to her. She took over as the second Speedy because she admires Roy. She saws what he went through growing up and how he dug himself out of his hole. She wants to help the downtrodden as a superhero, like him. Mia isn't even into fighting supervillains. She wants to help Star City itself.

People think it's silly? Well, that's their fault. Superhero names are silly-- superheroes are silly. There's a guy in red spandex who unironically calls himself "Superman" and a lineage of kid heroes called "Robin".

"Speedy" is only laughable because people aren't used to it enough. How is it any worse than "The Flash" or "Speed"?

the writers of this run are tripping sometimes

I don’t know if I’m remembering a false memory but I’m almost certain that in a comic, there was a line about Oliver’s playboyness. The line went something along the lines of “I’ve (or he has, i don’t remember who says it) been with 1000s of women, and probably around 50 men”. As far as I remember it it was from a more recent comic, probably Rebirth, but that might be false bc I’ve read hundreds if not thousands of issues of Green Arrow comics. Help?

I would like to get started but I don't know how!

Yes my love for this city has conquered corruption, street warfare, even magic. But even when faced with an ender of whole universes, that love doesn’t bow then either.

“Anti-Monitor, you have failed this city!”

What issue(s) I mean?
