About this Collection

This volume collects issues #26-31 of the 2016 Green Arrow series, continuing Oliver Queen's adventures as the Emerald Archer. The 'Black Arrow' arc sees Oliver and Dinah Lance facing off against a mysterious new villain who threatens Seattle, testing their partnership and Oliver's skills as a hero. Written by Benjamin Percy with art by Otto Schmidt and others, this story delves into Oliver's past and his evolving relationship with Black Canary.

In "Coyote Tears," Green Arrow faces a personal crisis as Ollie and Dinah confront the painful reality that they cannot have a child, even as a dangerous mission for the DEA pulls him into a deadly trap. When Fyers offers a lead on Reggie Mandell in exchange for a favor, Ollie’s attempt to plant a tracker on a drug ship backfires spectacularly—only to discover the vessel is a Navy ship and the device a bomb, drawing the FBI into the chaos. Written by Mike Grell and illustrated by Dan Jurgens, with inks by Frank McLaughlin, colors by Julia Lacquement, and letters by John Costanza, this emotionally charged issue features a cover by Ed Hannigan and Dick Giordano.
