Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters Saga by Mike Grell Omnibus Vol. 2

Green Arrow by Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino: The Deluxe Edition collects the run that rescued Green Arrow from the worst stretch of the New 52 and turned him into something closer to a myth. Lemire strips Oliver Queen of his money and his gadgets, sends him back to the island, and reveals an ancient conflict of totem clans behind the bow. Sorrentino's fractured page layouts are the reason people still talk about it.

Green Arrow: The Golden Age Omnibus Vol. 1 collects the character's earliest adventures from the 1940s, when Oliver Queen and Speedy were a straightforward Batman-and-Robin analogue with an arrow car and an arrow plane, and none of the politics that came later.

Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters Saga, collected complete as a pack of 2 oversized omnibus volumes and cheaper than buying them one by one. Mike Grell strips Green Arrow down to crime fiction, politics and consequence. Oliver Queen becomes less of a bright superhero archer and more of a man choosing violence in a city that gives him no clean options. This first Longbow Hunters Saga omnibus is the start of the grounded Green Arrow shelf: adult, tense and built around moral discomfort. Mike Grell’s Green Arrow keeps Oliver Queen close to the ground: crime, politics, aging, violence and moral choices that do not arrive with clean superhero answers. This second Longbow Hunters Saga omnibus continues the street-level world where arrows hurt, consequences stay, and Seattle feels more like a living city than a stage.

The Longbow Hunters is the 1987 miniseries that took Green Arrow away from the Justice League, gave him Seattle and made him a grown man with a body count. Grell removed the trick arrows, the superheroics and most of the costume, and wrote a crime series about a middle-aged archer. It is one of the few DC characters permanently changed by a single miniseries, and the run that followed is far darker than the Green Arrow most readers know from television.

PRH positions this omnibus around Oliver Queen after death and return, with Brad Meltzer and Phil Hester sending Green Arrow through a story of past, present and future. It is a character road story as much as a superhero collection. This is a strong Green Arrow shelf because it treats resurrection as a beginning rather than a reset. It gives readers the Kevin Smith and Brad Meltzer era in one place, with Oliver Queen's history, doubts and purpose driving the collection.

Green Arrow: Year One The Deluxe Edition collects Andy Diggle and Jock's retelling of how a spoiled billionaire became a bowman on a desert island. Stripped of everything, Oliver Queen survives by hunting and then finds the island is already occupied by an opium operation using slave labour. It is lean, brutal and the direct blueprint for the Arrow television series.

The Warlord by Mike Grell Omnibus Vol. 1 collects the sword-and-sorcery series Grell wrote and drew about a US Air Force pilot who falls through a polar opening into Skartaris, a hollow-earth world of dinosaurs and warring city-states. It was DC's answer to Conan and outlasted most of its imitators.

This second omnibus completes Mike Grell's Warlord in one volume, gathering the back half of his defining run on the sword-and-sorcery series in original colors, with a new introduction by Grell and an afterword by Dan Jurgens. Travis Morgan fights to hold Skartaris together as Grell shares scripting with Sharon Wright and hands art duties to Mark Texeira and a young Dan Jurgens. Warlord stands as one of DC's foundational fantasy titles, and this edition closes the definitive collection of Grell's original work.
