One-sentence summary: The revamped origin of Green Arrow continues, this issue giving a more complete portrait of his months spent on the deserted tropical island, involving more intrigue than in prior origins.
First off, the covers on these have been good so far. I have a soft spot for covers that decide to go against the grain (but without overdoing things, ala Marvel Zombies), and these definitely qualify. But, that's a pretty unimportant thing, so I won't dwell on it.
The story we're given is good in this. I mean, it's pretty standard fare of the Green Arrow origin, but the writing is well-done, and it's definitely nice they put more into the island and the going-ons of it. The artwork was good for what this demands.
I do like this book. Due to the 2-week shipping schedule it moves along at a brisk pace, which is good as this is a story we mostly know. It's still a pretty enjoyable read.
