Now, Green Arrow has arrived back home to find his city in chaos and his friends under siege. There's only one way this can end-in a direct confrontation between Ollie and Richard Dragon. But that's exactly what Dragon is after...and the only way he sees it ending is with the death of Green Arrow.

This collection of new essays focuses on The CW network’s hit television series Arrow—based on DC Comic’s Green Arrow—and its spin-offs The Flash, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl. Comic book adaptations have been big business for film studios since Superman (1978) and in recent years have dominated at the box office—five of the 11 highest grossing films of 2016 were adapted from comics. Superheroes have battled across the small screen for considerably longer, beginning with The Adventures of Superman (1952–1958), though with mixed results. The contributors explore the reasons behind Arrow’s success, its representation of bodies, its portrayal of women, its shifting political ideologies, and audience reception and influence on storylines.

Humanity is on the brink of extinction, and only a few remaining members of the Justice League stand between life and annihilation. As the remnants of humanity make their last gamble for survival, will there even be a planet left to call home when all is said and done? The senses-shattering conclusion to the year’s surprise blockbuster is here!

Green Arrow has lost his fortune, and now he is hitting the road to save America in Green Arrow Vol. 5: Hard-Traveling Hero. TheyÕre called the Ninth Circle-a criminal bank that funds war, terror and carnage, all in the name of racking up profits. They stole Oliver QueenÕs company from him and nearly destroyed Seattle, only to rebuild it in their own image as Star City. Now theyÕve got their sights set on the rest of the United States. But Ollie is having none of it. As Green Arrow, heÕs setting out across the U.S. to piece together the clues that will lead him to the Ninth Circle, one brawl at a time. And though Green ArrowÕs never been much of a team player, his travels find him crossing paths with heroes like Batman, the Flash, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and Superman. But before they can team up, Ollie will have to make amends for the jerk heÕs been in the past. Even with the full might of the Justice League behind him, can Green Arrow take down an organization so powerful theyÕre seemingly above the law? Or will his quest just paint a target on his back so big that even Ollie canÕt escape it? Acclaimed novelist Benjamin Percy (Teen Titans, The Dead Lands) and artists Otto Schmidt (Guardians of the Galaxy) and Juan Ferreyra (New Suicide Squad) bring Green Arrow back to his hard-travelinÕ roots!
