Description

From Mike Grell, who is considered one of the most influential Green Arrow talents, this is the first time these cult-favorite stories from the 1980s and early 1990s have been collected in omnibus hardcover format. Presenting Mike Grell's critically acclaimed six-year run on Green Arrow. Stripping the Emerald Archer of his gimmicks and trick arrows, Grell introduced the world to an aging Oliver Queen haunted by the life he's led and the paths not taken. Patrolling the back alleys and rooftops of a crime-ridden Seattle--with his fellow crime-fighter and the love of his life, Dinah Lance--he is an urban hunter in a concrete wilderness seeking purpose. Now collecting the entirety of the epic saga that changed the character forever, this first of two omnibus editions includes Green Arrow- The Longbow Hunters #1-3, Green Arrow #1-50, and a story from Secret Origins #38, along with brand-new retrospectives by Mike Grell and series editor Mike Gold, and never-before-seen behind-the-scenes material.

Author Biography

Artist Michael Jon Grell quickly made a name for himself in comics by tackling one of its most difficult assignments-the seemingly infinite universe of the Legion of Super-Heroes. From there, Grell joined Dennis O'Neil for a well-received Green Lantern and Green Arrow revival and might have become a regular contributor to the Batman office if his creation Warlord had not taken off to become DC's most successful fantasy title ever. Grell (whose other works of note include Jon Sable, Freelance, Starslayer, and Green Arrow) still writes the occasional Batman tale.
