About this Collection

This volume collects the conclusion of the Green Arrow and Black Canary series, wrapping up the storyline that began with their wedding. It features the titular 'Five Stages' arc, where the couple faces personal and super-powered challenges that test their relationship and resolve. Written by Andrew Kreisberg with art by Mike Norton and others, this trade paperback includes issues #20-26 of the 2007 series.

In "Bargaining," Green Arrow and Black Canary confront a twisted game of vengeance when Cupid captures Dark Arrow—only to be captured herself, her memories slowly returning. Meanwhile, Lt. Hilton's trauma reshapes him in ways no one could have predicted, pushing the investigation into dangerous new territory. Written by Andrew Kreisberg and illustrated by Mike Norton, with bold inks by Bill Sienkiewicz and colors by David Baron, this 2011 issue delivers a tense, character-driven mystery. The cover, by Ladrönn, captures the moment’s chilling intensity.
