Green Arrow #4

Part of DC's 2010 Brightest Day crossover event, this fourth issue of Green Arrow draws you in with Mauro Cascioli's striking cover — a close-up of Oliver Queen drawing his bow with fierce intensity, while a caped, green-skinned figure (the Martian Manhunter) stands amid a burning forest below. J.T. Krul's script, brought to life by artist Diógenes Neves and inker Vicente Cifuentes, promises the kind of moody, tension-filled storytelling that the "Strangers in the Night" title suggests. The blazing woodland backdrop makes this one of the more atmospheric covers of the Brightest Day tie-in lineup.
