State Your Opinion on A Character

It's probably not, given what a despicable b**** it turns Catwoman into. But I still resent her for it.

 

[Anubis]

Well, to be fair, she wouldn't have been a good mother.

It's not like she went all prom night dumpster baby on the kid.

If more parents came to the conclusion that maybe they shouldn't have kids the world would be a lot better.

Especially this:

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! that's so wrong on sooooooooo many levels! I loooovee it! freaking great!

She'd be a fine mother if she gave up being Catwoman and hid herself away well. But she didn't want to do that. She stopped being Catwoman, but she stayed in Gotham and kept one leg in the pool of all the crazy Batman/Slam Bradley/Catwoman, Jr. s***, which got her and her baby targeted.

Wtf is wrong with my arm?

Green Arrow

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Decent character who's fallen on hard times lately. Much better with a family of characters around him to play off of. Way worse when you subtract the family and try to rebuild him from the ground up without any of the maturity his prior experiences engendered. So, of course, that's exactly what DC's decided to do with him.

 

[Anubis]

Yeah, one of several characters the reboot managed to screw up.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, he wasn't exactly great before that, either. Last time he was genuinely great was before he became mayor of Star City.

 

[trustyside-kick]

I used to love Green Arrow a lot. Even before this Reboot though he was starting to slip. I love his run since he came back to life. But after 4 issues of BA/GC I think it went downhill. The only thing I can say I really enjoyed after that 4th issue was the creation of Cupid but not enough to really keep all of her appearances around. Trying to sell all my GA/BC stuff after that 4th issue on eBay. Tried once so far and no luck. Haven't tried again in a while.

Bad stretch of s**ty writing will do that.

But, you know, no bad characters.....

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Green Arrow's like a testament to bad writers happening to great characters. I still miss Connor.

Granted, he probably never existed anymore, but still...

 

[random_havoc]

It's a stretch to make archer characters not look stupid in the first place in a universe filled with real superheroes. And imo Green arrow stands out as the lowest of the archer characters. He's such a ripoff of Robin Hood that they couldn't even be bothered to change his outfit. It'd be like introducing a swordsman in the exact same outfit as zorro and calling him the Black Swordsman.

Not my bag baby.

 

[Mystirious]

I dont hate Green Arrow but never been the worlds biggest fan of him either. He's had some good stories some okay stories and some stories so awful I've wanted to put the comic book in a shredder

But he's okay. They need to give him back his gorram beard though he looks like a surfer without it

Green Arrow

I haven't read much of the character, but he interests me, as a political activist who sticks to his beliefs no matter what the consequences are.

 

[Mystirious]

I dig his politics but the way he's written sometimes makes me make the face

...

Fracking Cry for Justice

 

[trustyside-kick]

One of my favorite GA stories is the one just before IC, and the OYL arc. Those two arcs stick out the most for me. Especially the one just before IC. The last panels...emitted so much emotion.

My appeal of GA stems the most of that his run from his coming back to life up to before GA/BC...was a huge struggle. He was a hero that the writers practically tortured. He actually lost a lot to the villains in many ways...and I found great appeal in that. I like to see the hero struggle.

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

GREEN ARROW FREAKIN ROCKS!! From his first cartoon appearance when i saw him as a kid on superfriends. He was shrunk all down and had to fight these big ass ants! by Nottingham's beard that was cool! I love again he's one of those not afraid of Bats, like every body else and their granny goodess. A staunch ass liberal!you guys can take this JL and shove it, but i like when he's there. That's hella cool, cause he looks out for Joe blow on the street!( i like street level guys!).FIGHT THE POWER BABY!
didnt dig how he came to back to life. that was totally bull *&^%( you would think if writers kill someone off they would have a good way to to bring em back but noooo) and getting all dark and using regular arrows to slice your ass up i didnt care for, but he ROCKS in 3 words.....
BOXING GLOVE ARROW!!

 

[twylight]

I like Green Arrow...kinda? I only read his comics for Mia, Connor, Roy and the occasional Black Canary appearances. But I really started to like his character and personality. The OYL happened and a bunch of stuff...

Hated him during the GA/BC era though, and all the other **** stuff that happened that shouldn't have.

Yeah, it was. But the stuff before it was so good. Especially this:

DANG IT! Her leaving the kid must have been after I gave up on comics. Because she had the kid and Holly was Catwoman. I thought it was really well written for what they'd insisted on doing.

 

[Anubis]

That's it for GA

Spoiler

New Green Arrow. Now with *****e bag action.

Black Canary

 

[twylight]

I think we ALL know my feelings on her BOTH Dinah Laurel and Dinah Drake =

I looove DLL! She's the greatest character ever created. Her inherent personality and character is amazing, however I dislike how she was written at various times. Particularly in the Seattle years after GA's death before BoP, sections of the GA comic ... Oddly I really like her in JLI because it showed her 'crazy' years. She grew up in the superhero community and you can see her mature and grow in the comics, without support from other super powered offspring and you can really see how that shows in how she helps out da kids. Spoiler, Cassie, Roy, Mia, etc...

LAWWWWD HAVE MERCY! ROCKS OH SO HARD!!!! Fishnets and heels, fish nets and heels Lawd have mercy! i love me some fishnets and heels!( on her not me ..just had to clear that up a bit!) the very epitome of sexiness without all skanky looking! nothing but class, i love it! has an awesome power! A cool ass name! come on! anything with " black" in front of it has to be! hehe! All woman baby and a good ass woman to boot! Maannn! I would never cheat like GA does on girlie! She is fine! Baby girl is awesome! always loved her ,but her crowning moment for me was when she was captured and abused in GA's book and went thru all of that angst ..made those MOFO"S PAY though!( that &^%$ almost made me cry!)..then she cut her hair and got all manly! yuck!
Her really only worst moment for me was being a teenage girl on that god awful " Birds of Prey Tv show! Boo that!... but other than that. She ROCKS like Stevie Wonder singing "Fingertips!"

 

[Mystirious]

I her with all my

She's funny she's sassy and she's an ass kicker. She's fabulous in so many ways and she is and always will be my very favouritest Bird of Prey. I can't think of any comic books I've read where I've hated her even if I hated the comic books

Also she's a blonde in fishnets and leather. That's fun on a bun made of fun

And then covered in sauce

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Great character that I kind of lost interest in because she was in a string of less than impressive comics. Didn't care for Green Arrow/Black Canary on principle, since Dinah marrying Ollie after all the s*** he'd pulled with her made her look weak to me. There was a stretch where Birds of Prey got kind of crappy too, so I dropped it. So I haven't had a lot of exposure to Dinah in the past few years. But before that, she was super-awesome. I liked that she maintained ties with both the Justice League and the Justice Society. I always thought she should get back together with Dr. Mid-Nite, too.

 

[twylight]

I always thought she should get back together with Dr. Mid-Nite, too.

I loved GA's return story and how it royally messed everything up. I enjoyed the GA/Hawkman fight in hallway of the JSA. However, I always hoped they'd pair her and Pieter back up for one more chance. They were so cute together.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

And more importantly, Pieter's not a total dick!
