Green Arrow, Volume 4: The Kill Machine by Marcelo Maiolo, Jeff Lemire, Andrea Sorrentino
4.0
Borrowed this from a huge Arrow (TV show) fan. Knew nothing about the Green Arrow character (I've only seen the Flash/Arrow crossover episodes) but it was interesting to read about Oliver Queen.
This storyline asks what if everything is taken away from billionaire Oliver? He loses almost everything and has to battle Count Vertigo who can mess with Arrow's equilibrium. There's a really neat substory about these ancient relics (an arrow, shield, spear, hammer, etc.) which almost makes me want to read more, but since I'm not very invested in the Arrow, and I prefer graphic novels that have a finite ending.
Interesting story but I don't love the artwork. It's hard to describe, but the characters are sketched very simply, with very few details which didn't catch my eye.
