What made Green Arrow by Lemire & Sorrentino special?

Green Arrow didn't have the best start during DC Comics' New 52. For 16 issues, the title had little acclaim, and then Jeff Lemire & Andrea Sorrentino took over. With their entire run collected in one deluxe edition, how does the title hold up today?
Many say this isn't a true story about Oliver Queen, but I'll take a few arrows out of my quiver to see if this hits the bullseye!

🐶🐶 WOOF WOOF! DC's New 52 will always be my Jam, and Jeff Lemire gave Green Arrow the shot in the arm it needed to survive. But nearly 10 years on, I pull a few arrows out of my quiver, to see if this truly hit the bullseye! 🟩🎯 .

I love the middle story (The Outsiders War) little more than the beginning or the end!

[@paulvandenhogen4961]

Never read this, even though i own the deluxe hardcover. Will be reading this over the coming weekend.

[@jonathansoko1085]

What's crazy is anyone that says it isn't a green arrow story ... Its core is 1000 percent the most Green arrow ive read since grell. Is classic in up there in the upper echelon of comic books.

[@TevyaSmolka]

As much as I hated the new 52 with burning passion I gotta admit this green arrow series on its own is actually really good.

The comic edition that inspired the Arrow CW series!!!! Awesome masterpiece of a graphic novel 😎❤ Greetings from Puerto Rico Sir Maddog and Green Arrow Fellows Fans worldwide

[@teditube1971]

Great video as always! Thanks Dog big Canadian fan here, keep up the great work

Loved reading this digitally, my first and only Green Arrow read for now, and I had to get the oversized hardcover because the art of Sorrentino and Maiolo is so good; I read Old Man Logan at Marvel soon after, from the same team including Lemire and loved that too but we still need it in oversized format. I need to find a more typical run for GA some day to try.

Must admit never picked this new 52 series up and my Green Arrow is currently lacking. I think it's because I wasn't the biggest fan of the tv series, it put me off a bit and haven't given the character a chance.🤷

[@derekgreen7319]

I love this book. I thinks it's the best Green arrow run ever. This is my Green arrow. I will say the Ben Percy and Mike Grell stuff is very good too.

[@derekgreen7319]

I also love the new 52. While not every little thing was great . But I think a lot of the updates worked. Especially Green arrow's.

[@fandombat3074]

I really haven’t read the green arrow comics mainly because I like Batman better but my friend pestering me about reading him. So I might read this book just because she hates the new 52. That asides it does seem interesting

[@fandombat3074]

I just started reading batgirl new 52, with babs. I really like reading new 52, but the Batman one is confusing but I wonder if I should try to read it again.

[@savagedarksider5934]

Great Video but this green arrow look like Smallville's green arrow.

[@derekgreen7319]

The only thing wrong with this run is that it isn't 30 issues longer lol.

[@Sid271]

Pls make a "where to start : hawkeye" video
