About this Collection

This volume collects the final story arc of the 2020 Green Arrow series, bringing Oliver Queen's journey to a close as he faces the consequences of his actions and battles threats like Doctor Phosphorus, Parasite, and The Kryptonite Man. With allies such as Black Canary, Arsenal, and Superman by his side, the narrative ties up lingering threads while exploring themes of legacy and redemption.

In "The Children of Vakhar Part One," Green Arrow makes a perilous journey to deliver aid to war-ravaged Vakhar—only to discover the local children have been drawn into a brutal conflict they didn’t choose. Written by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, with striking art by Marcio Takara and vibrant colors by Marcelo Maiolo, this issue blends humanitarian urgency with the harsh realities of child soldiers. Kevin Nowlan’s intense cover captures the tension of a world where hope and violence collide.
