    My favourite story is the one where Felicity dies.

    @captaincomic8678 Před 8 lety +6

    "The Senator's Been Shot!" is a classic story; it's the first appearance of Green Arrow's mustache and goatee, as well as his classic costume designed by Neal Adams!

  • @TFFOCDinobotsFTW
    @TFFOCDinobotsFTW Před 8 lety +11

    Can't believe they never included the moment where Green Arrow kills Prometheus in the Cry for Justice miniseries. That was like one of the best Green Arrow moments ever!

    • @spiderbatman97
      @spiderbatman97 Před 8 lety +2

      +TF FOC Dinobots Because Cry for Justice is a very panned miniseries, a lot of people didn't like the story when it came out and they like less the consequences for the Arrow family.

    • @TFFOCDinobotsFTW
      @TFFOCDinobotsFTW Před 8 lety +2

      spiderbatman97 Oh I see. I honestly liked it. I thought that Roy's arm getting maimed was quite interesting too. Besides, they were the very first DC comics that got me into DC comics, so it has a special place in my heart. I like other comics a lot better, but the Cry for Justice mini-series is special to me. :)

    • @CosmicNerdStudios
      @CosmicNerdStudios Před 8 lety +12

      +itszaaaamzeh I think that's sad, because Stephen amell could embody green arrow, but they made him so much like batman, for so long if they made him more like the comic character it wouldn't make much sense

    • @lking1540
      @lking1540 Před 8 lety +2

    • @itszaaaamzeh

  • @soberchimera61
    @soberchimera61 Před 8 lety +4

    None of Jeff Lemire's run made the list? He practically did for Green Arrow what Geoff Johns did for Green Lantern.

    • @itszaaaamzeh
      @itszaaaamzeh Před 8 lety

      No he didn't. Yes his 3 arcs were good but they were only so good because of all the trash that new 52 GA was. His Issues were a breath of fresh air but they didn't bring in anything ground breaking to The Green Arrow Mythos like Geoff did for green lantern. The Geoff of GA would have to Be either Judd Winnick or Mike Grell

    • @KillerArmyStyle

  • @papaditto
    @papaditto Před 8 lety +1

    CW arrow is nothing like comic book green arrow, but I still love the show haha. I honestly think the worst thing they could have done was kill laurel, but with this CW Flashpoint that's going to happen anything is possible.

    • @thomasgeorge5327
      @thomasgeorge5327 Před 8 lety +1

      Arrow season 1 was like Green arrow longbow hunters series becouse it was more dark and he killed people so Arrow season 1 was more like Green arrow than the other seasons.

    • @hmt-0764

  • @punchtothegut
    @punchtothegut Před 8 lety

    My fave green arrow story would have to be hunter's moon which took place right after longbow hunters but before blood of the dragon. Truly great stuff. I also love the Jeff Lemire run from the new 52 that was volumes 4-6. Also really great stuff. Currently waiting for the first volume of green arrow rebirth

    Great list! I've read all of these but the first GA comics story I every read was the one listed at #1, issues 66-68. So when is DC going to get around to giving us a GA animated movie based on any of these wonderful "best of GA" lists DC keeps putting out? I want my Hard Traveling Heroes animated movie DC! I'm getting tired of nothing but more Batman.

  • @greatdestroyer4609
    @greatdestroyer4609 Před 8 lety +1

    I've read exactly half of the stories highlighted here. I echo the sentiments of fellow GA fans about the decline in quality of the ARROW TV show since season 2. Beyond the really crowded amount of characters on the show, the overbearing Felicity plots, questionable story decisions (e.g. death of Black Canary), and the pilfering of other DC villains not typically associated with GA, I gave up regularly watching it.

      +Magalinnda Clavien Season 1 and 2 great 3 and 4 ehhh not so much. but 5 they are supposedly going back to the roots of the show, returning to the dark gritty crime drama with a superhero twist, season 4 although had its ups and down, i feel like olicity and the death of BC really killed it for me personally. but Green Arrow is my favorite hero so ill always be down for redemption and if season 5 is going to bring it, GAME ON!

    • @princekyriecadet1063

      @Theone25ify Před 8 lety

      +Magalinnda Clavien CW has some fantastic work, i believe this is their final straw if this season is bad its probably going to cancel the show. Im fairly sure they want to keep Arrow in their hands, its the show that kicked off the whole DC CW collection of shows. Always keep high hopes for a show you love even its going down hill you can always hope for a better season.

  • @tphillips37
    @tphillips37 Před 8 lety +1

    Not even close to being a list of the best GA stories. Where's the one where Oliver finds out Roy Harper is a drug addict? How about when he accidentally kills a man and then retreats to a monastery to find peace? The retelling of his origin, by Mike Grell i believe, where he had a chance to catch the embezzler who stole his money and be able to get it all back, only to be forced to choose between saving the guy from drowning or save the bag with the documents from sinking? Spoiler: he chose to save the guy, but decided he's actually happier with his new life than the old. That's only a few off the top of my head. There's a lot of stories better than most of the ones in the video.
    "The Senator's Been Shot" btw was the debut of his new costume for the Silver Age. Amazing art by Neal Adams.
    Connor Hawke is NOT Green Arrow. He filled the role temporarily, but he's far from the real thing.

    • @itszaaaamzeh
      @itszaaaamzeh Před 8 lety +1

      Jeff Lemires run isn't that great. it's good but I think it seems better than it is because nearly everything else new 52 GA sucks.
      The current run on green arrow by Benjamin Percy is amazing though

    • @derekgreen7319
      @derekgreen7319 Před 8 lety

      Ben Percy is good, but Jeff lemires run is exactly what everyone has eveyone has ever wanted from green arrow ,

    • @itszaaaamzeh
      @itszaaaamzeh Před 8 lety +1

      +Derek Green ehhh. it's good don't get me wrong but I think it's a bit over rated in the whole big picture. His run was fun and there was plot twists left and right but the art was very average and some of the action panels were very sloppy. Idk its good don't get me wrong but it doesn't have that oliver queen feel. (mostly because he's a kid at that point) It's a great coming of age type story but I wouldn't say it's a must read for green arrow

    • @redeyephoenix
      @redeyephoenix Před 8 lety

      As a long time green arrow fan, I would probably say that I prefer stories done by Mike Grell the most out of all of the authors. The action became a little more brutal, the villains weren't over the top colorful villains but rather mob bosses, murderers, Pedophiles, Racists, Homo-phobics, and at times the american government.
      The story arcs where mostly two or three issues long, with a well paced story, very little fluff, and some great dialog, amazing action scenes, and great character development.
      These books are also some of the first to cover men being taken advantage of sexually, the way it affects their careers, relationships and friendships in a negative way, and so much more.

    • @itszaaaamzeh
      @itszaaaamzeh Před 8 lety

      +Aaron Shanahan I pretty much agree with everything you said. Grells Run on green arrow was just so gritty, the art was ahead of its time and like you said, villains weren't always big bad guys trying to take over the world they were just real life-like bad guys. However I do think Grells run was as good as it was because he didn't really hand any continuity restrictions. His Run was part of DC's adult line at the time and he didn't need to really be bothered by an entire universe of stuff that he had to keep up with. which is why I don't knock those like Kevin Smith And Judd winnikck for those stories being more superhero like. (Plus Mia Dearden is my preferred speedy and probably favorite sidekick in all of comics)
      Whenever I hear people mention Jeff Lemire's run i think "yeah it's good I guess" but it wasn't THAT good. Plus most all the art was god awful.
      Ben Percy's current run is actually pretty great too. If he sticks with the series for a long time I think he'll easily become a fan favorite for the character.
