![]() ![]() Instead, I think we can interpret from this that there was so much interest that the book got a format bump, from deluxe up to an Absolute edition. Aside from Smith's notoriety, I figured this was probably meant to capitalize on the current wave of Arrow popularity when canceled, I figured that meant maybe DC had bet too hard on that popularity and the interest just wasn't there. ![]() I did notice a few weeks back, however, that the deluxe Green Arrow by Kevin Smith had been canceled. The roots of the Green Lantern and Flash "rebirths" and even into what became the New 52 have some of their beginnings in Green Arrow: Quiver and its ilk. I think pretty highly of Kevin Smith's Green Arrow stories, ones that first got me into Green Arrow and also that in a historical sense typify well the transition from 1990s to 2000s comics in bringing back the "iconic" Green Arrow as lead in his own series. ![]() Both of these were "wishlist" trades for me, and I'm both excited about the new collections and also hopeful there will be more volumes to follow each. We also see another collection of John Ostrander and Tom Mandrake's Spectre and the first in a new series of collections of Chuck Dixon's Nightwing series. Probably I'm most interested here in the collections of DC's new weekly series, though most notable on the list is the rare change- up of the deluxe Green Arrow by Kevin Smith to an Absolute Green Arrow by Kevin Smith. Some interesting stuff in DC Comics's November 2014 hardcover and trade paperback collections solicitations. ![]()
