Absolute Green Arrow by Kevin Smith #[nn]
In "Quiver, Chapter One: The Queen Is Dead (Long Live the Queen)," Kevin Smith and Phil Hester kick off a gripping new chapter for Green Arrow with a story that plunges Ollie into a psychological and physical reckoning. Batman subjects him to a grueling interrogation, forcing Ollie to confront the truth behind his resurrection and the eerie gap in his memories—while a deadly threat emerges from the shadows at the Queen estate. The cover by Matt Wagner captures the tension perfectly, setting the tone for a mystery that’s equal parts personal and perilous.
