Easily one of the best Green 6Hno6jynY Arrow books ever written.By HolyJIEbusGraphic Novel Review (9/10) 3xvhRJEcl AmazingGreen Arrow: The Archers Quest (Collecting GREEN ARROW #16-21; r8F5uE3b0 2001)Writer: Brad MeltzerArtist: Phil HesterSynopsis (from DC Comics): The GqeIH1UwN Emerald Archer returns from the dead and sets off on an adventure that tests his TqhVblfRn courage and brings formerly hidden facets of the Green Arrow legend to light. sYXoBw0V1 Featuring an introduction by Senator Patrick Leahy, a foreword by Greg Rucka qfkoXcIZB (WONDER WOMAN), Meltzer's original notes to the series, and the script to 6glSH0qX4 issue #16.Analysis: I fell in love with Meltzers writing after I read the Identity ByPPIRl7J Crisis (2004), which was a story with not much action, but with a hell of a lot of wEm5NOxjn stakes. Identity Crisis is also probably up there for me as one of my top ten best Zxs77Xt14 graphic novels of all time as it in essence it Watchmen-ised the Justice League SEAJVyTy7 and asked the question what would happen if the Justice League dealt with more SBXySKgSh emotional and realistic problems. I am glad to say that Meltzer brings this type 1yVRXFsyK of writing to the Green Arrow book (but this one has action and has one of the best fights that I have seen involving Solomon Grundy) and takes Ollie on an adventure of rediscovery. Ollie does a lot of soul searching here, as he is still dealing with coming back from the dead from Green Arrow #100~101 (1987), where he gives his up his own life saving Metropolis from a bomb; and also tries to reconnect with the people that he loved before he died. If you havent checked out Quiver which was written by Kevin Smith, I highly recommend that you read that incredible 9.5/10 graphic novel before reading this one. You get a lot of cameos here including Wally West Flash (Barry Allen was still dead during this time from Crisis on Infinite Earths), Kyle Rayner Green Lantern (Hal Jordan was also dead during this time as he goes crazy via Parallax and Ollie is forced to shoot Jordan in the chest), Conner Hawke (Ollies illegitimate son), and even Roy Harper Arsenal.Meltzer doesnt just include cameos of characters, but he includes each character for a reason and none of them feel like throwaway characters. Meltzer explores the complexities of Ollies relationship with everyone else in this story and makes each interaction genuinely satisfying. For example, in one scene Kyle Rayner confronts Ollie and asks him how come Ollie always gives him a weird look and demands to know if Ollie has a chip on his shoulder because someone else took his departed friends super hero name. Ollie responds Im just dealing with looking at someone dress up in my best friends costume after he died. Its these kindve interactions that make this book worthwhile and so memorable. He also includes well placed levity in this book that feels natural, but I also adds to the characters of this book I was really impressed at how well the humor was done.The only drawback is the art for this book as sometimes I feel like Hester cannot handle the complexity of emotions on his characters. Hester does action very well, but during the more emotional scenes I wanted someone like a Ivan Reis or Alex Ross to render those scenes, still for the most part I enjoyed the artwork in this book. Easily one of the best Green Arrow books ever written.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Archer's QuestBy Kindle CustomerArcher's Quest is one of the finest Green Arrow stories written. It plays on the themes of family, friendship, and love.

One of the best Green Arrow storiesBy Albert LeeOne of the best Green Arrow stories.

  • The Language of Narrative Drawing: a Close Reading of Contemporary Graphic Novels
    The Language of Narrative Drawing: a close reading of contemporary graphic novels Abstract: The study offers an alternative analytical framework for thinking about the contemporary graphic novel as a dynamic area of visual art practice. Graphic narratives are placed within the broad, open-ended territory of investigative drawing, rather than restricted to a special category of literature, as is more usually the case. The analysis considers how narrative ideas and energies are carried across specific examples of work graphically. Using analogies taken from recent academic debate around translation, aspects of Performance Studies, and, finally, common categories borrowed from linguistic grammar, the discussion identifies subtle varieties of creative processing within a range of drawn stories. The study is practice-based in that the questions that it investigates were first provoked by the activity of drawing. It sustains a dominant interest in practice throughout, pursuing aspects of graphic processing as its primary focus. Chapter 1 applies recent ideas from Translation Studies to graphic narrative, arguing for a more expansive understanding of how process brings about creative evolutions and refines directing ideas. Chapter 2 considers the body as an area of core content for narrative drawing. A consideration of elements of Performance Studies stimulates a reconfiguration of the role of the figure in graphic stories, and selected artists are revisited for the physical qualities of their narrative strategies. Chapter 3 develops the grammatical concept of tense to provide a central analogy for analysing graphic language. The chapter adapts the idea of the graphic „confection‟ to the territory of drawing to offer a fresh system of analysis and a potential new tool for teaching.

Amongst the jungles and ravenous animals that threaten the various settlements across the planet’s surface, Calli is dealing with something much more dire: her sick mother, who is slowly dying from an unknown sickness. With funds scarce, Calli decides to do the impossible: to locate auracite, a rare mineral native to Kipos, in the hopes that it will provide her with the money to afford a cure. She leaves home with her friend, the sly and scruffy Sera, and encounters a whole new world outside of her own, one that will force her to answer questions she never knew she needed to answer: how far is she willing to go for someone she loves? iii Table of Contents Prologue 1 Chapter 1 6 Chapter 2 21 Chapter 3 35 Chapter 4 57 Chapter 5 80 Chapter 6 92 Chapter 7 123 Chapter 8 136 Chapter 9 156 Chapter 10 165 Chapter 11 192 Chapter 12 220 Chapter 13 245 Chapter 14 260 Chapter 15 279 Chapter 16 296 Chapter 17 313 Chapter 18 333 Chapter 19 358 Chapter 20 374 Chapter 21 387 iv Chapter 22 397 Epilogue 403 v Prologue Diana Hayford remembers Autumn.

PICK-UP TRUCK - DAY MARTHA KENT (30s) stalls the engine. Her young son, CLARK, (7) apprehensively peeks out at the park from just under the window. MARTHA KENT Go on, Clark. Scoot. CLARK Can’t I go with you? MARTHA KENT No, you may not. A woman is entitled to shop on her own once in a blue moon. And it’s high time you made friends your own age. Clark watches a group of bigger, rowdier boys play baseball on a diamond in the park. CLARK They won’t like me. MARTHA KENT How will you know unless you try? Go on. I’ll be back before you know it. EXT. PARK - BASEBALL DIAMOND - MOMENTS LATER Clark watches the other kids play from afar - too scared to approach. He is about to give up when a fly ball plops on the ground at his feet. He stares at it, unsure of what to do. BIG KID 1 (yelling) Yo, kid. Little help? Clark picks up the ball. Unsure he can throw the distance, he hesitates. Rolls the ball over instead. It stops halfway to Big Kid 1, who rolls his eyes, runs over and picks it up. 2. BIG KID 1 (CONT’D) Nice throw. The other kids laugh at him. Humiliated, Clark puts his hands in his pockets and walks away. Big Kid 2 advances on Big Kid 1; takes the ball away from him.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.
