Green Arrow #10

From Ann Nocenti, Steve Kurth, and inker Wayne Faucher comes this tense 2012 New 52 chapter, with a cover by Howard Porter that says it all: a grimacing Green Arrow crouches low, bow drawn and quiver bristling with arrows, as a ring of inhuman, grasping figures closes in from every side. The tagline — "Backed into a corner… by those who have abandoned humanity!" — perfectly captures the desperate, surrounded energy Porter renders with real urgency. It's a striking visual promise that Oliver Queen's back is against the wall in the best possible way.
